Few brands have revolutionised skincare quite like Augustinus Bader. From the moment the brand debuted in 2018 with The Cream and The Rich Cream, its science-backed approach has disrupted the industry, garnering over 160 awards.
Professor Augustinus Bader and co-founder Charles Rosier unveil their latest advancement: The Hydrogel Face Mask, a first-of-its-kind innovation designed to supercharge hydration and skin renewal using the brand’s iconic proprietary TFC8® technology.
Science in a Sheet Mask
At the heart of Augustinus Bader’s skincare is TFC8®, or Trigger Factor Complex TFC™, a proprietary skin-cell-renewing technology Professor Bader developed over three decades of research. This complex, made up of high-grade vitamins, lipids, and proprietary peptides, creates the optimal environment for skin renewal and combats signs of ageing and environmental damage.
The Hydrogel Face Mask infuses this cutting-edge technology into a hydrogel sheet mask, forming a protective microenvironment that enhances hydration, strengthens the skin barrier, and delivers transformative results. According to clinical trials, hydration levels increase by 95% after just one use, while luminosity improves by 42%, skin smoothness by 58%, and fine lines around the eyes are visibly reduced by 17%.
“What we try to create is optionality for the consumers,” says Charles Rosier. “All our products carry TFC8®, which is the proprietary ingredient that you can’t find anywhere else. Whether you prefer a serum, a rich cream, or a face mask, every formula is designed to deliver real results.”
A Treatment in Itself
Unlike traditional sheet masks that offer surface hydration, the Hydrogel Face Mask functions as a treatment, synchronising with the skin’s repair process to amplify its effects. “It’s a global first in the sense that it doesn’t just act as a skincare formulation, it actively repairs,” explains Professor Bader. “It’s like Yin and Yang: you have a shield and a…
