Frequently asked questions
Can I use both Moon Fruit Serum and Bakuchiol Serum?

You certainly can, but we like to think of MOON FRUIT Serum as a step-up from BAKUCHIOL Serum. If you use them together you'd get the benefits of polyhydroxy acids (PHA) from BAKUCHIOL Serum + plant peptides from MOON FRUIT Serum which are both powerful ingredients for smoothing skin. You could also try alternating them each night. Either way, they are safe to use alone or together! 
Can I use Moon Fruit Serum with an exfoliating product?

Retinol alternatives like Moon Fruit Serum are more gentle on the skin, so they can be used together with exfoliating products. However, we recommend patch testing first since everyone’s skin tolerance is different.
What is the difference between Moon Fruit Serum and Bakuchiol?

We suggest Bakuchiol Serum if you are new to smoothing treatments and to prevent signs of aging + hydrating skin.

Moon Fruit Serum as a powerful + potent treatment for all signs of aging, including fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of firmness. We suggest trying Moon Fruit Serum if you’re currently using a traditional retinol + want to keep up those results, but ditch the irritating side effects.
Is Moon Fruit Serum's packaging recyclable?

Yes, the glass bottle can be recycled after rinsing. The pump cannot be recycled and should be disposed in the trash.

    Helps with wrinkles and hormonal acne

    I've been starting to see signs of aging the past few years, and I've noticed a big difference (especially in the fine lines around my eyes and mouth) since I've started this serum. This serum is so moisturizing, I sometimes skip using additional cream and just use the Lapis face oil after. This serum is the cornerstone of my night routine.
