There’s a new name in the skincare world - and yes, it’s Dua Lipa. Here’s the twist: it’s in partnership with Augustinus Bader, one of the most respected names in science-backed skincare.

Three years in the making, DUA is a collaboration built on Bader’s patented TFC8® technology (short for Trigger Factor Complex), which was originally developed to help heal burn victims. The result is a three-step routine designed for people who don’t have time for twelve - or, as Lipa puts it, “a clean, effective, and effortless” approach to skincare.

The lineup is compact and practical; The Balancing Cream Cleanser, a gentle formula with prebiotics, algae extract, and tsubaki oil that removes makeup without stripping the skin followed by a Supercharged Glow Complex, which is a multitasking serum powered by marine bio-retinol and niacinamide for bright, hydrated skin. Last but not least, there’s the Renewal Cream - a lightweight moisturiser with pre-and post-biotics to calm redness and support skin barrier health.

Each product sits between $40 and $80 USD - a more approachable price point compared to Bader’s cult moisturisers that regularly cross the $300 USD mark. The range promises “accessible luxury” and a streamlined routine that still delivers results.

Lipa, a longtime fan of the Augustinus Bader formulas, has often cited them as her backstage staples through years of touring, travel, and heavy stage makeup. If there’s one thing this collaboration signals, it’s that skincare minimalism is back. Less layering and slugging, less time in front of a mirror, more living and good results.

In an industry drowning in 15-step routines and “miracle” serums, Dua’s version of skincare might actually be the one that makes sense - both for her, and for the rest of us.
