Eqqualberry is a Korean skincare brand built around a five-berry antioxidant complex — Blackberry, Cranberry, Blueberry, Raspberry and Elderberry — the source of the brand name.

This Bakuchiol Plumping Capsule Cream delivers 5,000ppm of 99% pure bakuchiol in a burst-release capsule format: Dextrin Palmitate microcapsules loaded with bakuchiol that physically break on contact with skin, releasing the active at maximum freshness directly where it's needed. Under the capsule mechanic, the base cream layers 10 peptides, 5 ceramide types, 5 collagen types, 2% niacinamide and astaxanthin. Has a light lavender, bergamot and sage scent from natural essential oils. 50ml.

• Bakuchiol 5,000ppm — Vegan Plant-Based Retinol Alternative — bakuchiol is a meroterpene phenol extracted from the seeds of the Babchi plant (Psoralea Corylifolia), used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries; clinical studies show bakuchiol activates the same retinoid receptors in skin as retinoic acid, stimulating collagen production and increasing cell turnover — but without the photosensitivity, peeling and irritation that standard retinol causes; at 5,000ppm in a capsule-delivered format, this is a meaningful concentration suitable for AM and PM use on all skin types including sensitive; Eqqualberry's 99% purity means minimal inactive plant matter diluting the active
• 10 Peptides — Every Major Anti-Aging Signal — Copper Tripeptide-1 (GHK-Cu: collagen + elastin synthesis, wound healing); Acetyl Octapeptide-3 (Snap-8: the strongest expression-line relaxing peptide, more effective than Argireline at reducing dynamic wrinkles); Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 + Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 (Matrixyl 3000: clinically validated collagen stimulation); Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 (Matrixyl Synthe'6 component); Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2 (a growth factor-like peptide supporting skin density); Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 (supports extracellular matrix proteins); Oligopeptide-6 (EGF-like cell renewal); Hexapeptide-9; Nonapeptide-1 (tyrosinase inhibitor for brightening); 10 distinct peptide mechanisms covering firming, collagen, expression lines, barrier and tone
• 5 Ceramides (3,000ppm) + 5 Collagen Types — Barrier + Structure — Ceramide NP + Ceramide NS + Ceramide AS + Ceramide AP + Ceramide EOP at 3,000ppm with Cholesterol and Hydrogenated Lecithin as the skin-identical lipid trio; five collagen types including Soluble Collagen, Hydrolyzed Collagen and ultra-low molecular weight collagen (300 Daltons) designed to penetrate deeper layers for genuine structural support rather than surface film-forming only; the combined ceramide + collagen approach addresses both barrier lipid replenishment and structural protein support in the same step
• 5-Berry Antioxidant Complex — The Eqqualberry Signature — Blackberry (Rubus Fruticosus), Cranberry (Vaccinium Macrocarpon), Blueberry (Vaccinium Angustifolium), Raspberry (Rubus Idaeus) and Elderberry (Sambucus Nigra) provide a concentrated polyphenol antioxidant complex; berry polyphenols (anthocyanins, ellagic acid, vitamin C, resveratrol) scavenge free radicals generated by UV, pollution and oxidative stress — the same stressors that accelerate bakuchiol and retinol's efficacy by weakening the cellular environment that these actives work within; the berry complex is Eqqualberry's brand-defining differentiator
• Avocado Fruit Extract (HA-Stimulating Peptide) + Astaxanthin + Niacinamide 2% — Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Fruit Extract contains the "avocado green peptide" that Eqqualberry uses for its hyaluronic acid synthesis-stimulating properties — it signals fibroblasts to produce more HA from within rather than just applying HA topically; Astaxanthin is one of nature's most potent antioxidants (6,000x stronger than vitamin C by free radical scavenging); Niacinamide at 2% brightens, controls sebum and reinforces ceramide synthesis

Apply evenly to face and neck after cleansing and toning. Pat gently to absorb. Can be used AM and PM — bakuchiol is not photosensitizing. Suitable for all skin types including sensitive. Light floral scent from lavender, bergamot and sage essential oils. 50ml.
