Hello WIMJ community! While doing some product research I landed here and am fascinated by the features of the site and database. I've come to realize that I could be doing more to take care of my 50+ skin. I've focused solely on dryness for several years with the most basic, simple products but building a routine here helped me to see there is so much more I could be doing, i.e. Bakuchiol appeared twice in recommendations. I'm just not sure what to think of all the unfamiliar brands. How does one evaluate them? Does WIMJ maintain any standards for the products they include?

I didn’t answer the last part, but I mainly use WIMJ to look at the ingredients in my skincare and what their benefits are. I don’t particularly focus on the irritants or comedogenic ingredients because everyone’s skin is different and the formulation really matters.
If you want to start using bakuchiol, I would recommend the Some by Mi retinol intense. It combines retinol and bakuchiol and it’s a great starter for retinol. It’s also cost effective! Here are some other Recs:
• Anua Nano Retinol
• Isntree Retinol Ex serum
