Words by Arabella Roden

Welcome to Skintellectuals – our monthly column where leading skin specialists turn guest editors to share their expert skincare advice (no appointment necessary!).

It's the skincare line that barely needs an introduction, with those royal blue bottles you'd recognise anywhere: Augustinus Bader

Beloved by everyone from Victoria Beckham to Kim Kardashian and Margot Robbie, its formulas powerfully target signs of skin ageing – and work on every skin type (according to the brand, there’s 7.5 billion of them; one for each unique individual).

How do they do it? Through an ‘un-dupe-able’ active ingredient founded 
on 30 years of research into skin’s ability to renew itself  – that’s TFC8®, or Trigger Factor Complex, to the uninitiated.

"T
he addition of TFC8® enables the flexibility to address everything from fine lines to redness," explains the brand's Co-Founder, Professor Augustinus Bader, adding the his skincare formulas "use the skin as a natural ‘bioreactor’, to incorporate the user's unique skin physiology. 

"Since the brand's launch, we have always focused our efforts on constant research and innovation, creating the most technologically advanced formulas."

Now, the brand has applied TFC8® to a new innovation: hydrogel eye patches that promise to dramatically reduce the appearance of dark circles, puffiness, fine lines and dryness – essential all year round, and during the festive season in particular.

Here, Professor Bader shares how to rejuvenate tired, dry and ageing skin with Augustinus Bader skincare – and why The Eye Patches should be the next addition to your routine.

Moisturise

Hydration is a must-have. Think of your daily moisturiser as a barrier on your skin's surface. It protects you from outside factors, retains hydration and eliminates the excess oil causing congestion and breakouts.

The Rich Cream is wonderfully hydrating with hyaluronic acid and vitamin E. The Light Cream is our gentle, mattifying moisturiser expertly formulated for oily complexions. Using this daily will balance sebum levels and reduce the appearance of pores while preventing moisture loss.

If your skin gets especially dry and stressed during the party season, try The Ultimate Soothing Cream, with actives such as provitamin B5 and shea butter to attract and seal in moisture.

Exfoliate

If you aren't exfoliating, dead skin cells will gather in your pores, leading to blackheads and whiteheads.

If you have acne-prone or sensitive skin, you may be worried that some exfoliants are too harsh. The Essence is a gentle three-in-one exfoliant, hydrating essence and toner. It contains a mild blend of phytic acid and salicylic acid, so you can buff away dead skin cells while protecting your skin's barrier.

This lightweight formula helps regulate sebum secretion to help you achieve a balanced and glowing complexion.

“The skin of the eye contour area is very thin, making it more vulnerable to damage, fine lines, wrinkles and dark circles.”
