Clinically tested self-care
Q for Skin is a combination of research and innovation with the best of Nordic nature. Before a product is developed, it undergoes rigorous controls and clinical tests (only on people with sensitive skin) regarding durability and safety. The products should be safe to use on the skin, but also for the environment.
Tested on people with sensitive skin
All our products undergo clinical testing on humans with sensitive skin. We never test on animals. The clinical tests are conducted using scientific measuring instruments to ensure what effects our self-care concepts can achieve.
The results provide us with concrete data showing how the products affect the skin's moisture balance, barrier function, and recovery – so you can feel confident in what you are using.
Scholarly published articles
We have published articles on atopic skin, scalp conditions, and the physiological effects of lingonberry seed oil on the skin. Over the years, we have also been featured in numerous newspaper articles where customers share their experiences and results.
Our research is based on the strengthening and beneficial effects of Nordic berry seed oils on skin and mucous membranes – unique knowledge that originates from Finnish research.
It's not beauty care, but it results in beauty.

The Power of Nordic Berry Seed Oils
Our products are based on Finnish research into the unique properties of Nordic berry seed oils. Lingonberry, sea buckthorn and other Nordic berries contain essential fatty acids that strengthen the skin's barrier and restore its moisture balance.
These ingredients have proven particularly effective for people with dry, sensitive and reactive skin – precisely the target group for whom we develop our products.
Safe for your skin – and for the environment
Our responsibility extends beyond the skin. We strive to ensure that every product we develop is safe for both people and nature. From raw material selection to finished packaging, we work consciously to minimize our environmental impact.
Due to the disagreement surrounding guidelines for organic certification, we have chosen to invest in clinical studies with scientific measuring instruments instead – to ensure real efficacy rather than empty promises.
