Forest Spa Finland: Natural skin wellness, inside and out

Sustainable and holistic skin wellness brand Forest Spa Finland uses Nordic Forest plant extracts to counteract and protect against the effects of stress on our skin. Its multi-award-winning products featuring natural adaptogens support an inside-out approach to beautiful skin.

Our busy modern lives with daily commutes, urban pollution, fully packed schedules, and lack of sleep can cause stress that shows on our skin too. Disheartened by the disconnect between inner wellness and outer beauty in the global beauty industry, Daniel Collins decided to set up his own wellness brand in 2020. “After many years working for global beauty brands in an industry which felt quite changeable and disposable, I wanted to go in a different direction and look more holistically at skin, bridging the gap between what’s on the inside and what’s on the outside,” he explains.

Daniel Collins, founder of Forest Spa Finland.

Inspired by the peace, purity and restorative power of the Nordic forests, Collins has created a natural line of products – made in Finland with sustainably sourced forest plant extracts, that work to internally immunise the skin. The two-phase skin immunity wellness system with a Nordic adaptogen supplement and face serum will help tackle the impact of daily stress and take your skincare routine to the next level.

The supplement is made from a blend of full spectrum adaptogens including chaga mushroom, rhodiola rosea, wild bilberries, and pine bark. “Our hero ingredients are potent antioxidants, meaning that they combat the stress within our body, which can manifest as skin problems and even premature ageing,” says Collins. He recommends using the supplement in combination with the topical serum containing natural, high potency Finnish cloudberry extract, sea buckthorn oil, and birch sap as well as a unique aromatherapy blend that uplifts the spirits and calms the mind. The combination has a naturally restorative effect and helps let the light back in for beautiful, radiant skin.

Celebrating natural beauty, the brand works with responsible suppliers and has sustainability at the core, and no fillers, synthetics or unnecessary ingredients are used in the formulations. With its products, you get to experience the beautiful Nordic nature in a bottle. “In Finland, nature is intrinsically linked to wellbeing. I often say that the Finns always have one foot in the forest,” the founder smiles. “That’s why we’re so happy to be able to say that with our products, you have the chance to bring some of the Finnish forest magic home to your own bathroom.”

The response from customers has been fabulous, with an impressive 4.8 out of 5 on Trustpilot, and the brand has already won several prestigious beauty awards. Most recently, Forest Spa Finland has been shortlisted for the European Natural Beauty Awards 2024, with results being announced in October. No doubt, we can expect more exciting developments from this brand.
