About Shenzhen Hujia Technology Co., Ltd.
HBN is a functional skincare brand founded by a passionate team of artists, designers, and biopharmaceutical scientists. Professor Joe Yao, the founder, studied art and design in the UK and now teaches at a prestigious university in China. His meticulous nature led to frustration during his search for effective anti-aging skincare products; it was difficult to find products that truly delivered noticeable results. Even his friends, who had used skincare products for years, couldn't recommend a brand known for its efficacy. While teaching at the university, Professor Yao continually explored the integration of design aesthetics and cutting edge science.

Design Details
- Unique Properties
- The HBN Anti Aging Brightening Collection, a packaging upgrade rooted in the scientific skincare philosophy of the brand, integrates active ingredient preservation and user experience optimization. Inspired by vintage laboratory vessels, it uses light protective brown materials and functional structures such as dual dose dispensing, vacuum bottles, and a spatula platform to ensure formula stability and scenario adaptability, meeting dual expectations of consumers for efficacy and aesthetics.
- Inspiration
- The design draws inspiration from vintage laboratory vessels and scientific instruments such as medicine bottles, light-proof jars, and observation windows. It translates the rational aesthetics of lab equipment into skincare packaging, conveying professional trust while adding warmth and ritual through curved lines and material details.
- Research
- The research focused on ingredient preservation and user pain points. Through material testing, structural innovation, and user surveys, a functional packaging system that offers light protection, freshness retention, contamination prevention, and scenario adaptability was developed, responding to trends in rational consumption and aesthetic evolution.
- Challenge
- The core challenge lay in realizing the dual-dose dispensing structure: the Droplet Mode required clearly separated drops, while the Stream Mode demanded a consistent, uninterrupted flow. This necessitated a precise balance between fluid viscosity, nozzle size, and internal sealing. Through repeated testing and structural refinement, a reliable experience was achieved with clear mode switching and zero leakage.
- Realization and Technology
- The bottle uses highly transparent PETG and PP composite recyclable materials; brown light-resistant glass prevents photodegradation. The pump is a weighted composite assembly for precise dispensing. Semi-matte and glossy finishes distinguish product characteristics, with no coatings or metallic decorations to emphasize eco-friendliness and texture.
- Operation and Interaction
- The Luminous Water features a dual dose mechanism for daily and masking use. The Night Cream combines a vacuum bottle with an arched scraper to prevent contamination and waste. The weighted pump of the Essence Milk offers controlled dosing, and the semi transparent bottle allows easy residue check, enhancing usability and hygiene.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project was completed in Shenzhen, China in 2025.
