IV therapy has long been celebrated for delivering fast, effective results—hydration, nutrient absorption, and glowing, youthful skin. Trusted by wellness enthusiasts, athletes, and busy professionals, IV drips bypass the digestive system to deliver nutrients directly into the bloodstream, ensuring maximum absorption. For many, the process is far from convenient: time-consuming clinic visits, discomfort from needles, and the high cost of repeated sessions make it inaccessible for everyday use.
Bianca Festejo knew there had to be a better way. With over a decade of experience in the beauty and wellness industry, Festejo has been leading the blending of science and convenience to solve real-world problems. Constantly grinding, traveling, and balancing her role as a global entrepreneur, she understands the importance of self-care and how difficult it can be to fit into a busy schedule.
The Birth of a Game-Changing Idea
“I’m always on the go—whether I’m running my business, attending events, taking care of my family, or traveling across the globe,” Festejo explains. “Taking care of my health is crucial, but I found it nearly impossible to fit clinic visits for IV therapy into my schedule. When I spoke with other women in my industry, I realized I wasn’t alone.”
Determined to find a solution, Festejo and her team dove into research, exploring alternative ways to deliver nutrients effectively. They discovered a growing trend in pharmaceutical innovation: transdermal patches, already used to treat conditions like pain management and hormone imbalances. Inspired by this concept, Festejo decided to take it to the next level.
“We found that while regular patches are effective, using dissolvable microneedles made from active ingredients could enhance absorption by delivering nutrients deeper into the skin. This led us to create a groundbreaking way to maximize the effectiveness of nutrient delivery,” she says.
Unlike traditional patches, the microneedles in the IV Patch are made entirely from active ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glutathione, and niacinamide. These tiny, painless needles dissolve into the skin, delivering hydration, antioxidants, and essential nutrients to promote glowing, healthy skin.
Taking It a Step Further
To complement the IV Patch, Festejo and her team developed the IV Strip. This fast-dissolving sublingual strip delivers nutrients directly into the bloodstream through the mucous membranes under the tongue. This bypasses the digestive system, ensuring faster, more efficient absorption than traditional oral supplements.
“The IV Strip was born out of the same need for convenience and efficiency,” Festejo shares. “It’s perfect for anyone who wants a boost from within, whether they’re focusing on skin health, energy, or overall wellness. Clients can also use it depending on their lifestyle and needs. They can choose to use the patch, the strip, or both.
The IV Patch Kit: A Smarter Alternative to IV Therapy
While not replacing traditional IV drips or medical therapies, the IV Patch Kit offers a powerful, portable, and cost-effective alternative for those seeking to enhance their skin and wellness routines. It is designed to complement your existing self-care practices, not replace treatments prescribed by healthcare professionals.
The kit’s highlights include:
- Dissolvable Microneedle Technology: Pain-free microneedles made from active ingredients ensure maximum absorption directly into the skin.
- Sublingual Strips: Fast-dissolving strips deliver nutrients straight into the bloodstream for full-body benefits.
- Clean, Minimal Formulation: No unnecessary fillers—just the nutrients the body needs.
- Convenience: Compact and portable, perfect for traveling, working, or simply simplifying a self-care routine.
Why It Works
The science behind the IV Patch Kit is simple: by bypassing the digestive system, it avoids the nutrient loss that occurs when pills or powders break down in the stomach and liver. The microneedles ensure nutrients penetrate the skin layers directly, while the sublingual strip takes advantage of the rich blood supply under the tongue to deliver results almost instantly.
“IV therapy is trusted because it delivers nutrients straight to the bloodstream,” Festejo says. “With the IV Patch Kit, we’ve created a solution that combines that similar effectiveness with portability and ease of use. It’s a way for people to prioritize their health without compromising their schedules.”
More Than Just Skincare
The IV Patch Kit is just the beginning. Festejo hopes for a future where wellness is effortless and accessible, with plans to expand the product line to include kits targeting energy, focus, relaxation, and NAD+ support for cellular health.
“Our goal is to empower people to take control of their wellness, wherever they are,” Festejo says. “Whether on a plane, in the office, or at home, the IV Patch Kit is designed to fit into your life—not the other way around.”
With its unique blend of advanced technology, thoughtful design, and real-world practicality, the IV Patch Kit can lead the next wave of beauty and wellness. And for Festejo, it is only the beginning of reimagining what is possible.
