Augustinus Bader was only founded six years ago. But during that time, its skincare, bodycare and haircare has gained a reputation and subsequent cult following (including the likes of Sofia Coppola, who recently launched a range of tinted lip balms with the brand) for delivering results that have been described as nothing short of ‘miraculous’. Last week (20 June) The Business of Fashion reported that the brand’s sales are about to top $130m in 2024, showing that more and more consumers are worshipping at Bader’s altar.
And for good reason. Addressing myriad skin concerns, hero products include The Cream and The Rich Cream, which both visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation, whilst deeply hydrating and restoring the skin barrier and elasticity, in just four weeks of continued use. It may seem as though there’s magic at work here. (And as a fan of The Rich Cream myself, I can attest to its transformative power.) But, everything that Augustinus Bader does is rooted in decades of scientific research; namely, its patented TFC8 technology, developed by brand namesake, co-founder, and biomedical scientist Professor Augustinus Bader.
