Scandi style has been taking over the world of fashion for a while now, so it only makes sense that it is starting to gain popularity in the world of beauty as well. Scandi beauty is as cool as Scandi style, and we're thrilled to share our favorite Scandinavian beauty brands with you.
Here are the Scandinavian beauty brands you should check out.
Kjaer Weis
This brand was founded by makeup artist Kirsten Kjaer Weis, who grew up on a farm in Demark. When working in cities, according to the website, Weis found that people were "sacrificing the health of their skin by using irritating, synthetic makeup." Using the knowledge she gained growing up on a farm, she created an organic luxury beauty brand.
Kjaer Weis has a lot of incredible products, but we wanted to talk about its bestselling Cream Blush. This product is well-loved because it can be used on your lips, cheeks, and eyes, giving users a natural glow. It contains organic sweet almond oil and jojoba seed oil, which can lift your face, hydrate, and blur your face, so you can master the glow from within look. Plus, the packaging is incredible, and you can order refills!
Ole Henriksen
Chances are you've probably heard of this brand before, and that's because it's simply iconic, so it had to be on our list. This brand was founded by Ole Henriksen, who is Danish. After graduating from beauty school, he found his way to the United States, where he would mix up custom formulas for celebrities, and decided to bottle up his products.
The brand focuses on giving you the spa treatment at home. We love the Banana Bright vitamin C serum, which is 15% vitamin C, which helps with environmental stressors and skin elasticity. It also helps reduce the appearance of pores and dark spots while also brightening your complexion.
In addition, the serum contains 5% polyhydroxy acids (PHA), which can help chemically exfoliate your skin and even your skin tone. It also uses banana powder-inspired pigments, which give you a brightening glow and can help color correct.
Byredo
Another well-known and viral brand comes from Stockholm. Byredo was founded by Ben Gorham in 2006, and the brand was inspired to bring emotions and memories into products. The brand creates fragrances, home care, and just about anything you could need. The founder studied art but had a chance meeting with a perfumer, which inspired him to create the brand.
Although Byredo has everything a person can imagine, we have to talk about its fragrances, especially its Bal d'Afrique, which probably has been all over your For You Page or your feeds in general. The scent is genderless, vegan, and woodsy floral, making it perfect for spring.
Woods_copenhagen
Martin Lyne founded this brand after his daughters were diagnosed with atopic dermatitis. The brand uses active and strong ingredients produced in Denmark. It is science-backed, clean, natural, and organic. The products were created to be safe for the environment as well as people.
We think its Daily Hydra Cream is worth mentioning because it is friendly for all skin types. The key ingredients include natural sea buckthorn, which can soothe, nourish, and protect your skin. It also contains actibiome, which helps restore your skin's pH balance and fights harmful bacteria while also helping with redness, irritation, and zits. It also features hyaluronic acid.
