Natural skin cell turnover

Together, they support natural skin cell turnover and help resurface the complexion. BUTTER delivers essential moisture while refining the skin’s surface to prevent breakouts, making it the ultimate hydration hero for ALL skin types.

Moisture from the inside out
BUTTER specifically targets concerns related to dullness and dehydration. Packed with twice the ceramides—a clinically-proven Signature Six ingredient—to visibly enhance skin texture and firmness, targeting dullness and dehydration for smoother, plumper skin.

Clinically-backed results
Formulated with three of radford's Signature science-backed ingredients to support natural skin cell turnover, treat and prevent blemishes, and strengthen the skinʼs moisture barrier over time, promoting long-term skin health and resilience validated by a consumer study with 20 participants.

The Signature Ingredients

We believe the key to your best skin lies in a handful of clinically-backed ingredients, which is why every formula, including BUTTER, is built around six essential ingredients chosen for their proven efficacy.

BUTTER is built around three of these Signature Ingredients:

Bakuchiol (a vitamin A derivative and retinol's cool older sister) stimulates skin cell turnover, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles while improving skin tone and texture. This superstar ingredient works to minimize signs of hyperpigmentation and boost collagen production.

Ceramides are fatty acids naturally found in the skin that act like building blocks to keep your skin cells together, and strong. Ceramide production decreases due to age, sun exposure, and harsh climates, so itʼs important to add them into your routine to keep skin hydrated, healthy and soothed.

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) effectively minimizes the look of pores for a smoother, more even toned appearance. Incorporating niacinamide into your daily skincare routine can help soothe the skin, reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and boost hydration in the skin's surface layers. As a result, niacinamide is an excellent ingredient for promoting a hydrated, smooth, and more even skin tone.

Bakuchiol vs. Retinol

Retinoids - what are they?
Retinoids (also known as vitamin A derivatives) are highly regarded in the skincare community for their ability to treat signs of aging and acne. We also know that if you have sensitive skin, you may experience adverse reactions and skin irritations when using retinoids.

Bakuchiol - crowned as the natural alternative to retinol and one of radford's Signature Six clinically-backed ingredients for proven results. Enter bakuchiol, an ingredient derived from the babchi plant (Psoralea corylifolia).
Bakuchiol is the rising star in skincare, known for delivering the same benefits as retinoids, without all the potential drawbacks. Like retinol, this powerful antioxidant helps to stimulates cell turnover, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles while improving skin tone and texture. This Signature ingredient works to minimize signs of hyperpigmentation and boost collagen production. What doesn’t it do? Cause you irritation. The same transformational results, without all the fuss.

I am so pleasantly surprised how much I love this cream. The color is deceiving, it is actually like a clear glaze. It smells wonderful too.
I have only been using for a week or two now so time will tell it if it is true love! :)

Prefer old butter

Just received my new butter and have to say I much prefer the old butter :(. The smell and consistency were fantastic i couldn't wait to end my night routine with it. Not loving the new formula. Not the greatest smell, and the consistency is a bit different.
