What is the difference between a Nanofiber Mask + Conventional Mask?
+Active ingredients absorb better = more effective.
Traditional skincare formulations like serums or moisturisers consist of about 70-80% water. That’s majority H₂O + minority active ingredients.
Research has found that most of the active ingredients found in these formulations degrade quickly. They remain on the top layer of the epidermis and don’t actually absorb into the deeper layers of the skin. The result? Minimal and temporary results.
Recent research shows that nanofibers can deliver active ingredients to the deeper layers of the skin = increased efficacy of active ingredients. Yay.
How does BFF SLEEPOVER's waterless nanofiber enhance skin absorption and support sustainability?
+Holds more actives.
Nanofibers are super small. They have a diameter that’s 100X smaller than a strand of hair. When woven together, they form a nanotextile. The high surface area-to-volume ratio of nanofibers ensures maximum contact with the skin’s surface – and this enhances the skin permeation of active ingredients into the deeper layers of the skin.
It’s waterless.
BFF SLEEPOVER nanofiber is made with patented SNC BEST® ball electrospinning technology, removing 100% water. 0% water means that BFF SLEEPOVER only consists of botanical extracts, active ingredients, and rich, nourishing oils. No stabilisers or preservatives needed. All actives, all the time. Drenching your skin in all the good stuff while you sleep.
It’s planet-friendly.
BFF SLEEPOVER is a revolutionary waterless beauty formulation with a unique delivery system that’s planet-approved. According to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), two-thirds of the world’s population will be impacted by water shortages by 2025. Less water for BFF SLEEPOVER means less packaging and reduced waste. Waterless beauty = Sustainable beauty.
SleepScience Fact: HGH, Skin Repair & Cell Regeneration During the DELTA stage of sleep (stage 3 & 4 ) - or the "slow wave sleep" stage - the Human Growth Hormone (HGH), which is responsible for accelerating skin repair and cell regeneration, increases in the body. Between 11pm and 4am, cell regeneration can double or even triple.
