As a professional make-up artist for some of the world's most famous faces and top photographers, Katarina Hakansson became well known for creating her signature Scandinavian look of fresh, healthy naturally radiant skin.
In the process, she uncovered a simple truth that has guided her in the creation of her skincare: The foundation of great-looking skin needs to happen before make-up goes on, and can indeed happen even without it.
Informed by her years of working with skin as well as her Swedish inclination to all things pure and honst, it was her goal to conjure a new, no-nonsense method of care for the skin. A simple synergy of multi-tasking products, pared-down to their simplest, most efficacious elements. Born in the basics. Based on natural extracts. Designed and refined to transcend boundaries. Fundamental in form and function. Created, purely and simply, to bring the honest, fresh, unspoiled glow of great skin - even without make-up - to every kind of skin, every day.
