MEET PROFESSOR AUGUSTINUS BADER

As one of the world's leading stem cell and biomedical scientists, Professor Bader of Leipzig University has spent more than 30 years developing a breakthrough medical treatment that activates the body's own regenerative processes. Inspired by the miraculous healing functionality of the human body, he tapped into the regenerative capabilities of stem cells to model this technology. And from there, he adapted it to create a truly unique skincare advancement named TFC8® (Trigger Factor Complex).

WHAT IS TFC8®?

Found in each Victoria Beckham Beauty skincare product, TFC8® is comprised of natural amino acids, high-grade vitamins and synthesized molecules naturally present in the skin. This technology guides key nutrients and powerful natural ingredients (such as peptides and lipids) to the skin, creating an optimal environment for cellular repair and renewal.

HOW DOES IT BOOST MY SKINCARE?

TFC8® turns potent base formulations into smarter, adaptive skincare capable of addressing individualized concerns—such as the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, redness, hyperpigmentation, and damage caused by environmental stressors.

HOW DO I KNOW IT’S WORKING?

TFC8® nourishes and protects the skin and builds a stronger barrier function, in essence, training the skin for the long-term. As a result, skin looks and feels healthier, firmer, stronger, and more even over time.

WHAT DOES TFC8® FEEL LIKE?

Victoria Beckham by Augustinus Bader skincare is clean without compromise. It defends, repairs, delivers unprecedented glow, and feels luxurious on bare skin and weightless under makeup.
