BioNike

Sensitive skin care has shaped BioNike’s identity since its foundation in 1960. The Italian brand develops dermocosmetics and nutraceutical products for consumers with sensitive, intolerant, allergic, or hyperreactive skin. Its portfolio spans face and body care, makeup, sun protection, dermatological products, hair care, baby care, and supplements. Formulas are designed to balance efficacy with skin tolerability through carefully selected functional ingredients and the exclusion of substances associated with allergic reactions. Products are preservative free and fragrance free, or use allergen free perfume, and dermocosmetic formulas are Nickel Tested. Clinical testing is used to verify formula efficacy and performance.

Proprietary research laboratories and internal Italian production give the brand direct control over formulation and development. Its scientific approach draws on continuing collaboration with dermatologists and a formulation philosophy created to support skin health while maintaining sensory performance. The business traces its origins to a pharmacist’s recognition that dermocosmetics could complement treatments prescribed by dermatologists. It later developed a method for limiting nickel release to infinitesimal quantities, an advance that underpins its Nickel Tested products. The brand belongs to Icim International Srl, an Italian pharmaceutical company founded in Milan in the 1930s, and forms part of Sodalis Group. Its catalog contains more than 500 dermocosmetic and nutraceutical products, serving consumers as well as pharmacists and dermatologists.
