Between Dua Lipa‘s Met Gala GRWM, Radical Optimism Tour essentials and “What’s In My Bag” video, there’s one thing in common: Augustinus Bader. Since launching in 2018, the celebrity-backed luxury skin-care company has counted the singer as an unwavering super fan of its cult-status cosmetics.

Starting with the dive into her bag charm–covered Hermès Birkin, Lipa reveals a critical part of her in-flight routine: The Eye Patches. “I can’t live without them,” she says. “This is super important, especially with all my travels.” Cut to the first Monday in May: when prepping the singer’s skin, her makeup artist Katie Jane Hughes, yet again, utilizes the Augustinus Bader patches.

These under-eye masks are coveted by both Hollywood makeup artists and their clients for the instant refresh and visible glow they provide. A single pack retails for $23 and a six-pack for $130.

After removing the patches, Hughes followed up with another under-eye staple: The Rich Eye Cream. She applies the product using its accompanying cooling steel massage tool, which de-puffs and supports circulation​.

Back to the contents of her purse, Lipa then pulls out her go-to face cream: The Rich Cream. Augustinus Bader’s award-winning moisturizer is a Hollywood secret weapon, with fans like Hailey Bieber, Demi Moore, Jennifer Aniston, Lily Aldridge, Naomi Campbell, Sandra Oh and Karen Elson.

For those who prefer a lighter option, The Cream is Augustinus Bader’s other top-selling daily moisturizer. And for something both light and mattifying, The Light Cream is the answer, used by celebrity makeup artist Pati Dubroff on Margot Robbie ahead of red carpets.

In a recent interview, Cynthia Erivo spilled that Augustinus Bader is her trusted skin-care brand, too. The Wicked star’s routine entails The Cream Cleansing Gel in the morning, The Foaming Cleanser at night, The Serum and The Rich Cream.

On the subject of A-listers loving Augustinus Bader, last May, Oscar-winning filmmaker Sofia Coppola partnered on a trio of tinted lip balms, which have since become some of the brand’s best-selling products. They contain the same hydrating formula as the beloved original but feature sheer yet buildable washes. All three shades are still available for purchase individually ($46) or as a set ($120).

What all these products have in common (and what sets them apart from other premium beauty lines) is the brand’s patented TFC8 technology (Trigger Factor Complex 8), a blend of natural amino acids, high-grade vitamins and peptides that support the body’s capacity to renew. This signature regenerative formulation is an over-the-counter take on the medical-grade cream that co-founder and stem cell expert Augustinus Bader originally created to help burn victims heal.

The brand launched in 2018 with Melanie Griffith as one of the company’s earliest investors. Gwyneth Paltrow, Charlize Theron, Victoria Beckham, Kris Jenner and Rachel Zoe are just a few more famous faces who have raved about Bader’s groundbreaking skin-care line.
