We’re sure you have all heard of retinol – but have you heard about Bakuchiol? This is a naturally-derived, plant-based and much gentler alternative to retinol. It stimulates collagen-producing receptors in your skin. Burt’s Bees has released a complete new face care line packed with efficacious ingredients like Bakuchiol that you can use day and night, helping decrease fine lines, moisturize, cleanse, and correct.
I’ve been a long-term fan of Burt’s Bees because their mission is to reconnect people to wisdom, power, and the beauty of nature. Now what does that mean in practice? Well, by 2025 they’ve promised to be net zero plastic meaning 100% of their packaging will be recyclable, reusable, or compostable.
Along with these new targets, Burt’s Bees has always been focused on transparency, a landfill-free operation, being carbon neutral certified, plus they don’t test on animals, they are focused on global communities and community giving. Their products also use natural fragrances and offer many fragrance-free options that are gentle enough for my sensitive skin.
Burt’s Bees operates globally – most of their key ingredients are sourced sustainably from around the world. Tanzania and Vietnam is where they source their beeswax, the Phillipines is where their coconut oil comes from – produced on smaller farms with a regenerative approach. Ghana and Burkina Faso is where their Shea comes from. Over 16 million women work in the Shea sector in West Africa – so Burt’s Bees doesn’t just buy their products but they work collaboratively to better the industry and the lives of the industry’s workers.
Burt’s Bees is just a solid brand with all the right values and is a brand I love to support. So, when I was introduced to their brand new face care collection I was so excited to tell you about it. So – here’s your first look at the Burt’s Bees Renewal Face Care line.
Your first step to great skin is clean skin. Burt’s Bees Renewal Refining Cleanser | $14.99
This hard working yet gentle cream face cleanser is made from 99% natural origin ingredients. With Bakuchiol, Vitamin E, and nutrient rich botanicals, this creamy cleanser also has natural exfoliators to smooth skin and improve skin texture while reducing dullness and priming your skin for the rest of the skincare regime.
Burt’s Bees Renewal Dark Spot Corrector | $29.99
Because I am so so fair, any break out I have leaves a dark spot that can linger for weeks. I am loving dark spot correctors and this one sounds great because it is clinically proven to fade the appearance of dark spots. Packed with Bakuchiol and Vitamin C – this serum leaves skin smoother and brighter with dark spots, discolouration, and age spots faded.
Burt’s Bees Renewal Anti-Wrinkle Moisturizing Cream | $29.99

Help reduce the look of fine lines around those peepers with this fragrance-free super moisturizing eye cream. Again packed with Bakuchiol and Vitamin E – this eye cream is made from 99% natural origin ingredients that work in harmony to target puffiness and dark circles all while hydrating that delicate under eye area.
Burt’s Bees Renewal Firming Day Lotion SPF 30 | $29.99
Perfect for those multi-tasking days, this lightweight mineral broad spectrum SPF formula works great under makeup and while keeping you moisturized throughout the day. Helping to maintain your skin’s moisture barrier, this helps your skin remain soft, healthy, and supple looking.
With my sensitive skin – some retinols are much to harsh for me, so I have been leaning into alternatives like Bakuchiol for the same results without the irritation. So far this face care line has been gentle enough even for me.
