AB: Developing a consumer-oriented skincare item hadn't crossed my mind before. My expertise lies in science and medicine, not in crafting typical beauty items. Over time, as I delved into conventional stem cell tech, I started grasping how the human body recovers from injuries and inflammations. This insight led to the creation of an innovative wound gel designed for scar-free recovery—no surgeries or skin transplants needed. It was Charles Rosier, my business collaborator, who envisioned leveraging my extensive studies for everyday skincare solutions, prompting me to develop TFC8, which stands for Trigger Factor Complex—a core part of our exclusive tech portfolio.
If my technology can transform burned skin into flawless skin, he reasoned that this expertise might lead to groundbreaking advancements in skincare. Initially stemming from one key finding, we've expanded this concept into an exclusive range of non-toxic yet highly effective basic necessities. It brings me great satisfaction knowing that our creations are favored by top professionals in dermatology and trichology worldwide. Furthermore, being bestowed with more than 185 accolades and labeled 'The Greatest Skincare of All Time' by global publications in both 2021 and 2024 fills us with profound gratitude.

The hydrogel mask is unique – how does its design take skincare to the next level?
AB: An unprecedented advancement in skincare, the Augustinus Bader Hydrogel Face Mask incorporates our exclusive TFC8 technology within a hydrogel sheet mask. This setup forms a protective layer that aids in rapid moisture replenishment and skin rejuvenation.
What is the scientific basis for the rapid effects of the Hydrogel Mask, and how does its structure enhance skin absorption?
AB: The rapid effectiveness of the Hydrogel Mask can be attributed to its capability to provide intense moisturization and nourishment straight to the skin, thanks to our TFC8 technology. This exclusive blend helps direct vital nutrients and natural components into the skin’s cells, aiding in cell regeneration and improving general skin condition. The hydrogel formulation significantly contributes to this process as well; it creates a shield that seals in dampness, establishing perfect conditions for better intake of active substances, resulting in immediate revitalisation, suppleness, and luminosity of the skin.
What makes hydration such a key feature of the Hydrogel Mask, and what about its design ensures that your skin remains thoroughly moisturized for an extended period following use?
AB: Hydration is fundamental to healthy, resilient skin. The Hydrogel Mask is designed to deliver long-lasting hydration, which prevents moisture loss and allows key ingredients to penetrate deeply. Our TFC8 technology works in harmony with this design, guiding nutrients to the skin’s cells and supporting their natural renewal processes.
