Our Science

Skincare is a chemistry problem. We solved it like one.

BAO Laboratory was founded in 2019 by Dr. Julia Bao, a PhD bioanalytical chemist who found the flaw in most skincare while studying molecules for a living: the active ingredients are simply too large to penetrate the skin. Dermatology's 500 Dalton rule holds that a molecule must be small enough to cross the skin barrier at all - and most aren't.

BAO is built around that principle. Every formula is engineered for absorption and clinically tested to confirm it works. In a 28-day study, skin elasticity improved 26.64%, firmness 20.13%, and the appearance of crow's feet reduced 25%.
