Introducing a new high-performance peptide, tens of millions of years in the making.

Innovation as Regeneration

Nature’s genome is the greatest library ever created. But, it is disappearing without having been read. At Humble Bee Bio we combine nature with modern technology to create new products in service of climate stability, biodiversity, and beauty.

About Us

Our Discovery

We were inspired by rare solitary bees. We sequenced their genomes and identified a suite of novel, never-before-seen molecules. One of them has a groundbreaking capacity to stimulate elastin production in skin cells — this will be a hero ingredient in a new line of clinically proven products for medical spas and aesthetics professionals.

A Leap Forward in Elastogenesis

Elastin is a vital protein that provides elasticity and resilience to skin, arteries, and lungs. However, elastin production stops after puberty, and its degradation over time contributes to visible signs of ageing, like wrinkles and skin sagging. The ability to stimulate elastin is rare, and few solutions are available, creating a significant unmet need in the skincare industry.

High Performance

Our proprietary peptide has demonstrated exceptional performance in in vitro studies:

  • Stimulating elastin production up to 4.7x more than the commercial gold standard at half the concentration.

  • Delivering measurable effects in as little as 12 hours, with significant increases observed within 24 hours.

We are developing a premium product range with this world-first peptide designed for the medical spa and aesthetics professional market.
