DISCOVER BIOEFFECT

With a bioengineering breakthrough after a decade of research, BIOEFFECT was created when three Icelandic scientists were able to extract Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) from fully grown barley stem cells. Nurturing these stem cells with nutrient-rich volcanic pumice and geologically filtered groundwater, in geothermal greenhouses within Icelandic lava field, the brand fuses this hero ingredient into all its skin care staples. Why? Because the main goal is to supplement the skin’s own supply of EGF, to support your complexion’s ability to produce more collagen and elastin while also aiding in the stimulation of new skin cells. Firmer looking skin that looks happy, healthy and hydrated? Yes, please!

MEET BIOEFFECT’S FOUNDERS

BIOEFFECT was founded in 2009 by Bjorn Ovar, Christoffer Konigsfeldt and Dr. Bjornsson. Through 10 years of stem cell research, the trio were able to extract EGF from their nurtured barley stem cells. This extraordinary ingredient is the first of its kind and has undergone clinical research with incredible results. BIOEFFECT’s products were tested over 12 weeks and showed significant improvement to skin hydration, texture and radiance — with results being published in the Journal of Drugs and Dermatology.

HOW DOES BIOEFFECT’S EGF WORK

Playing a vital role in the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, epidermal growth factor is essential to maintaining the health and density of your skin. A naturally occurring signalling protein, EGF levels begin to decrease once we reach our twenties, with menopause having the most significant effect. As a result of this, our skin begins to repair itself at a slower rate and our cell turnover diminishes... meaning fine lines, wrinkles and sagging begins to form. But, with the addition of external EGF from BIOEFFECT’s innovative products, your skin is provided with a boost of EGF to supplement its levels for a complexion that looks firmer, healthier and plumper.
