NanoBase™ is a tri-domain nano-delivery platform developed by Pensive Beauty®. It engineers active ingredients into sub-100nm particles that target specific skin compartments — stratum corneum, viable epidermis, or dermal matrix — for dramatically improved bioavailability versus traditional formulations.

Starter uses standard emulsion systems. Professional uses nanoemulsion or liposomal delivery for enhanced penetration. NanoBase™ Elite uses the full tri-domain nano-delivery architecture for maximum clinical-grade performance.

Starter formulations begin at $1,500/SKU, Professional at $3,500/SKU, and NanoBase™ Elite is custom-quoted based on line size and complexity. Visit our Services & Pricing page for full details.

Typical turnaround is 60-90 days for Starter and Professional tiers, 90-120 days for NanoBase™ Elite. Rush turnaround (30 days) is available at +40%.
