BIOEFFECT Information

Born from Icelandic innovation, rooted in plant biotechnology. Age-defying skincare powered by plant-derived growth factors (EGF, KGF & IL-1α). BIOEFFECT was founded by three Icelandic scientists following their scientific innovation of using plant-biotechnology to produce a replica of human growth factors in barley. The barley plant is the host for our growth factor production. Among these is EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor), one of the most important skin growth factors and BIOEFFECT’s signature ingredient. EGF plays a vital role in the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid to maintain skin’s healthy and dense appearance. As we age, the production and effectiveness of skin growth factors decline. Once we reach our twenties the natural production of growth factors has already started to decrease and during menopause, the depletion has become significant. This decrease results in slower cell turnover and repair, eventually affecting our skin's appearance – skin starts to sag, and fine lines and wrinkles appear. Our science team at BIOEFFECT is composed of pioneers in biotechnology-powered skincare and specialists in developing and formulating skincare with growth factors as key ingredients. Through research and innovation, they have developed highly effective, science-driven formulas for age-defying skincare. From serums to sheet masks, our products have won accolades in various categories, solidifying our position as one of the best anti-aging skincare brands in the market.
