The introduction of this strategic partnership will bring forward the richness of Scandinavian culture inclusive of the multitude of benefits associated with Scandinavian lifestyle, wellness and skincare, and place Scandinavian values, such as hygge, back on the map. At its core, Scandinavia represents a larger-than-life culture that’s built on the small things, such as the Danish-born practice of hygge, defined as the feeling of coziness and contentment evoked by simple efforts. With countries within the region touting some of the happiest populations in the world, since its inception, Olehenriksen has been infusing Scandinavian and hygge philosophies into their output. Whether it be the locally-sourced ingredients that power the brand’s skincare products, or treasuring the moments taken to apply them, Olehenriksen is categorically championing this diverse and traditional culture with Scandinavian skin wellness at the forefront.
A Wellness-Focused Skincare Line
Danish-born brand founder Ole Henriksen’s personal experience with cystic acne encouraged him to create a wellness-focused skincare line inspired by his Scandi roots. Infused with powerful acid blends and plant-powered ingredients sourced from Scandinavia, such as Nordic birch sap, snow lotus and alpine willowherb extracts, each joy-inducing ingredient and product makes every application an occasion to embrace.
“We are a Scandinavian born brand, and as we enter our 40th year, we’re going back to our roots anchored in Scandinavian skin wellness, understanding this overarching ethos sets us apart from the rest,” said Rachel Berg, Olehenriksen’s vice president of global marketing. “By signing on Anine Bing as our Global Scandi Brand Advisor and partnering with other Scandi influencers on a global scale it will help amplify diverse elements of the culture and our Scandinavian-inspired skin wellness approach in a fresh, modern way.”
