The founder of MÁDARA

When 15 years ago I was looking for organic skincare to buy for myself, I could not find anything close to the deeply efficient and awesome textures I loved. So I wanted to create a superskincare - organic products that work as powerhouse yet are fully natural and safe. That’s why I founded MÁDARA. 

My deepest wish was to explore Northern nature and the amazing tiny treasures, hidden in its soil. To connect the wilderness of nature with the warmth of the human body. That’s how I began developing organic skincare.

It was pretty clear that we need to create our own factory and laboratory with a totally different approach to natural formulations, raising precious organic ingredients to the level of “rocket science”. Pioneering Northern ingredient innovations 18 years ago in partnership with biologists and dermatologists, my fascination with nature’s treasures is what started it all.

Our Mission

At MÁDARA we celebrate the beauty that comes with age. Like our founder, we believe that women only become more radiant, confident, and vibrant with time. We see beauty in every stage of life, and we’re here to help you to move from anti-ageing to authentic and healthy ageing.

Our mission is to provide you with luxurious, effective skincare that works in harmony with your skin’s natural aging process.
