BAKEL story

BAKEL was sparked by a simple but innovative idea, finally resulting in the creation of a true revolution in the skincare field: to formulate a range of anti-ageing skincare products that would contain only those substances that are able to bring realistic, clinically proven, benefits to the skin. Speci- fically, there would therefore be absolutely no preservatives, no emulsions, no colourants, no perfumes, nor would there be any derivatives of petroleum. Only active ingredients, chosen from the finest pharmaceutical-grade raw materials, would comprise the formulation. As simple as this sounds, it had never been done before!

From this approach came the unique BAKEL claim: ZERO useless substances, 100% active ingredients. Giving up all that is superfluous represents an absolute novelty, a paradigm shift that truly distances BAKEL from traditional skincare: what is applied to the skin is, in fact, only and completely the active ingredient. Nothing else.

Creating formulations in this way was the brainchild of Dr.Raffaella Gregoris, an Italian researcher specialising in skincare chemistry within the pharmacy faculty at the University of Milan. Eminently qualified, with a Master’s degree in both skincare chemistry and cosmetology from the prestigious University of Bologna, and having substantial experience from her work in a number of esteemed laboratories, Dr.Gregoris has beaten the biggest names in the international skincare industry to develop and commercialise this groundbreaking anti-ageing technology.

The story of the BAKEL company, and the development of this technology, is all due to the drive and tenacity of its Founder, Dr. Raffaella Gregoris.
