Self-care for quality of life

It is daily self-care, treating every day like a holiday, that makes the big difference.

Self-care is about finding skin and hair care products that you want to use every day and that not only provide temporary relief, but also make a real difference to your quality of life in the long term.

Q for Skin was founded by nurse Florence Ellinor Nilsson with the aim of improving public health by creating self-care products for the common dryness problems she encountered in her daily work. The result was products based on Finnish research into the strengthening and beneficial effects of Nordic berry seed oils on the skin and mucous membranes.

By moisturise with skin care products that provide essential nourishment, preferably both internally and externally, the skin can regain its natural ability to retain moisture and become resilient.

At Q for Skin, we are proud to offer a range of products that have been thoroughly researched, even for sensitive skin, and that can be used for a variety of needs.

 

Q for Skin is a combination of research and innovation with the best of Nordic nature.

What happens to your skin if you take care of it every day?

What can I do myself to take care of myself?

A simple skincare routine is best if you have sensitive skin; the fewer products, the better. Using multiple products increases the risk of hypersensitivity. Q for Skin offers safe, reliable, and well-researched products that are multifunctional. This means that one product can be used for several different needs.

Living with dry, sensitive skin? There is hope!

"When I came into contact with Q for Skin, I had tried almost everything without finding a long-term solution. I was met by people who saw me and understood my problems. That meant a lot to me.

When you have dry and sensitive skin, it is important to find products that do not sting and are easy to apply. They should also be
natural, fragrance-free, and pleasant to use. I highly recommend Q for Skin to anyone with dry and sensitive skin. Their products have given me back my zest for life!

When life is turned upside down

When Florence Ellinor (founder of Q for Skin) was diagnosed with aggressive ovarian cancer in February 2020, she experienced firsthand how crucial self-care can be. Chemotherapy treatments cause a range of difficult side effects, including dry skin, skin cracks, and dry mucous membranes, to name a few. Not looking sick, having a healthy glow and fullness in the face, and having soft skin provides important quality of life and reduces suffering.

"My doctor was surprised that I didn't have any problems with atrophic vaginitis, i.e. dryness and cracks in the genital area, which can be extremely painful. Nor have I suffered from the usual skin problems that are common side effects. This is thanks to our self-care."

When others want to correct, we want to optimize your natural beauty!

"The Lingonberry Cream provides a very special sensation that is difficult to explain. The feeling is wonderful, and it seems as if you have acquired the most beautiful skin in the world. That is how it actually feels! I am 69 years old and cannot expect miracles, but the cream makes such a difference. My unsightly pigment spots have faded away. I also have more radiance and better elasticity. My husband has asked to borrow the cream on a few occasions, but I have carefully told him to only use a tiny bit because the cream is so economical. On one occasion, he joked and said that he had rubbed it all over his body because it feels so good!"
