“Be good to your skin. You will wear it everyday for the rest of your life”.
Taking good care of your skin means drinking a lot of water and taking your vitamins, but it also means using the right skincare. Thanks to innovative technology, skincare brands like Icelandic BioEffect and Austrian Ringana have gained popularity in recent years – with good reason. Being a massive fan of good skincare myself, I’d like to introduce you to four brands that have all made a difference in my daily rituals. Beautiful skin is just a few steps away!

BioEffect
In many ways, Icelandic BioEffect leads the way in modern skincare bio-technology. I’m a huge fan of all their products, especially the EGF Power Cream and 30 Day Treatment.
Combating signs of premature ageing, everyone can benefit from using these products. As a woman in my 30s, I’ve tried a lot of products over the years, and BioEffect is just one of my favourite brands so far. Their face cream is like whipped cream, providing long-lasting nourishment for the skin. If you’re committed to improving your skin condition, try the anti-ageing 30 Day Treatment – a silky serum, which should be applied every morning and evening. It works in correspondence with the the skin cells and leaves a youthful glow that would be hard to obtain otherwise.
BioEffect only use between 7-23 clean natural ingredients in their products, which means they’re safe and suitable for all skin types.

Ringana
When I tried the Austrian skincare brand Ringana last year, I had never heard nor read about them before. As it would appear, I had definitely missed out! Today, Ringana is one of my preferred go-to brands when it comes to organic, natural skincare. Containing only pure substances from nature, both their skincare products and supplements are labelled with expiration dates. In my mind, that’s a proof of absolute freshness! I’m especially fond of the Fresh Overnight Face Treatment and Fresh Cream Rich.
I’m quite fond of the thickness of their creams (creamy not greasy!), which provides a long-lasting glow and dewy skin all throughout the day.

iLoveEcoEssentials
I may be biased (I’m working as their Head of Communication & PR), and then again – I’d recommend the products from iLoveEcoEssentials any day! A trailblazer in the world of sustainable hotel amenities, you’ll find a wide range of sustainable and organic products from the Danish-founded lifestyle brand, and each of them will sweeten your everyday life a little.
From actual amenities such as travel-size accessories, a room diffuser and a room spray to shampoo, conditioner, body wash, mineral sunscreen and hand cream; all ILEE products are tailormade to pamper your senses while at the same time protecting the environment.
If you’re not staying in one of their partner hotels, you can get your hands on the products online.

Rituals
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been crushing a little bit on Rituals – both because of their products but also due to the company’s profile and philosophy. For more than 20 years, the Dutch lifestyle brand has provided us with gorgeous skin- and body products and, perhaps most importantly, a genuine feeling of wellness and serenity.
Based on the ancient wisdom and traditions of Asia, the good people at Rituals have developed a range of signature smells for both men and women. I’m swearing to their Ritual of Ayurveda Body Cream and Body Scrub, but the range of home products including scented candles, clothing, tea and travel-size toiletries.
Their Clean, Conscious and Caring concept ensures reliable quality products wrapped in sustainable packaging.
