This collaboration is said to bring together academic excellence and market innovation, leveraging the university’s expertise in bioengineering as well as BIOVOZ’s pioneering technologies in gene regulation and plant-based formulations.
Through the partnership, both parties seek to unravel the molecular mechanisms underlying skin ageing and pigmentation, and achieve major scientific breakthroughs in beauty and wellness, particularly personalised, science-driven skin care solutions for women worldwide.
“As New Zealand’s largest and most prestigious public research university, the University of Auckland has long stood as a global leader in life sciences and biotechnology.
“Professor Jun Lu from the Auckland Bioengineering Institute is a distinguished scholar in functional foods and natural bioactive compounds. He has published over 150 Science Citation Index (SCI) papers and serves on the editorial boards of multiple top-tier scientific journals. As BIOVOZ’s Chief Scientific Advisor, Prof Lu plays a pivotal role in steering the brand’s scientific development,” the brand stated.
BIOVOZ has a special focus on advancing research in genetic anti-ageing and epigenetics, integrating natural resources with state-of-the-art science to redefine beauty at the genetic level.
Looking ahead, BIOVOZ and the University of Auckland aim to translate advanced genetic research into groundbreaking skin care innovations, setting a global benchmark for precision-driven anti-ageing and skin brightening solutions.
Applicable and ingestible
Utilising its unique Cell-Level Targeted Formulation and Natural Essence system, BIOVOZ develops products that awaken the skin’s inherent vitality through a balance of scientific rigour and natural wisdom.
Among its flagship innovations, the Bright Diamond Drink and Clearly Brightening Dark Spot-Targeting Serum deliver a dual-path brightening effect through “internal and external synergy”.
Powered by Melan-erase, said to be a Nobel Prize-inspired gene technology, the Bright Diamond Drink inhibits melanin formation at the dermal layer. Combined with double-patented white tomato extract and a 4D antioxidant complex, it supports a three-phase brightening process, targeting the surface, mid-layer, and root causes of dullness.
The Clearly Brightening Dark Spot-Targeting Serum, enriched with four New Zealand botanicals (licorice root, red algae, black tree fern, and Centella asiatica), provides comprehensive care by protecting the skin during the day and repairing it at night. It is claimed to help reduce pigmentation, even out skin tone, and deliver a natural translucent glow.
Beyond topical products, BIOVOZ’s portfolio also comprises dietary supplements, including the L-Ergothioneine Capsules, which feature three powerhouse ingredients — L-ergothioneine, pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), and alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG).
The formulation delivers triple anti-ageing benefits from genes and cellular functions to the skin surface, targeting the revitalisation of skin from within.
In addition, the brand’s Women’s Multivitamin contains 56 essential nutrients that supplement the body’s daily dietary requirements to offer an all-in-one nutritional solution.
