Nano Formulations Outperform, Every Time.
From global beauty brands to ambitious indie brands, clients choose us for one reason: Results.
Our nanotechnology capabilities deliver faster absorption, deeper penetration, and up to 300% higher efficacy compared to traditional formulation.
Formulation
Have Us Formulate Your Next Cutting-Edge Product With Our Proprietary Nano-Delivery Platform for up to 3x Performance Increase Over Traditional Formulations.
Our proprietary NanoBase™ technology was developed to support next-generation skincare and haircare formulations. With a consistent particle size of ~200 nanometers (depending on formula), our NanoBase™ delivery platform enables deep delivery of actives, uniform dispersion of functional ingredients, and improved emulsion stability across a wide range of formulation types.
Originally created as an internal R&D platform, NanoBase™ is now available to our clients, allowing us to formulate an entire nanocosmetic line in weeks, not months.
Why NanoBase™?
NanoBase™ offers a threefold advantage for formulation development:
Even dispersion of actives throughout the base.
Improved phase compatibility for both oil- and water-based ingredients.
Enhanced texture, stability, and up to 300% deeper penetration for a smooth, high-performing finished product.
Key Benefits

Contact The Formulation Team
NanoBase™ is Pensive Beauty’s next-generation nanodelivery platform we formulate on top of to develop advanced, performance-driven formulations. Each NanoBase™ model is pre-structured for modern formulation workflows, enabling faster R&D, improved stability, scalable, and future-ready production.
The NanoBase™ Lineup
NanoBase™ Classic
A phospholipid-based nanodelivery system optimized for lightweight formats such as serums, gels, and essences. Designed to support both oil- and water-soluble actives with excellent spreadability, fast absorption, and consistent skin interaction.
NanoBase™ Luxe
A phospholipid-based nanodelivery system engineered for richer formats including moisturizers, masks, and treatment creams. Provides a more cushioned, nourishing sensorial profile while maintaining coordinated delivery and stability across complex active systems.
NanoBase™ Clinical
A precision-engineered nanodelivery platform developed for performance-driven and professional-grade formulations. Optimized for higher active loads, tighter stability control, and applications where delivery predictability, repeatability, and validation are critical.
NanoBase™ Cleanse
A nanodelivery architecture designed specifically for rinse-off and cleansing applications. Built to support effective cleansing while minimizing barrier disruption, maintaining lipid organization, and preserving delivery coordination even in wash-off formats.
NanoBase™ Cortex
An advanced platform in development focused on next-level delivery control and bio-interface performance. Designed to support formulations where barrier dynamics, response behavior, and precision outcomes require a more engineered approach than conventional delivery foundations.
Platform Overview
All NanoBase™ platforms are pre-engineered to approximately 200 nanometers to support uniformity, stability, and predictable behavior across batches and scale. NanoBase™ functions as a formulation architecture, not a finished product, and is intended for research, development, and manufacturing workflows. It is not designed for direct-to-consumer use as a standalone matrix.
