I Tried Everything For My Acne. It Turned Out The Products I Trusted Were The Problem.
By Daniel Hoftun, founder of Norse Organics
Where it started
I know what it is like when nothing works
I had acne through my teens and into my twenties. I tried the cleansers, the prescriptions, the ten step routines, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, all of it. Some of it worked for a week. Then my skin came back angrier than before. I stopped taking photos. I learned where the good light was in every room.
The thing nobody told me
The problem was not my skin. It was what I was putting on it
One day I read the back of everything I used. Face wash, shampoo, sunscreen, deodorant. Lists of chemicals I could not pronounce. When I looked them up, the phrase kept coming back: hormone disruptors. They absorb through the skin and into the body, and they can pull hormones out of balance. For a teenager whose hormones are already surging, that is the exact wrong thing to add.
Where the answer came from
So I looked back a thousand years
I went digging through old Nordic books to see how people cared for their skin before any of this existed. My ancestors, the Vikings, used two things: beeswax and Arctic plants. And they did not have acne. So I rebuilt that formula.
Arctic plants are not gentle little herbs. They survive minus 40 degrees, months with no sun, and a summer so short they pack a whole year of nutrients into two or three weeks. That is what makes calendula, rosemary, marigold and thistle so powerful on skin. No water, no fillers, nothing you could not pronounce.
So I made my own
I built the skincare I could not find, and tried it on myself first
I could not buy anything like this, so I made it. Beeswax, Arctic botanicals, the plant extracts my ancestors used, and nothing else. I put it on my own skin before anyone else's. Within a few weeks it was clearer than it had been in years, and this time it stayed that way. That was the moment Norse Organics began.

How it was born
I made the first batch in my kitchen
The first jars for other people were poured by hand on my own stove, because everything inside them is real food for your skin. I gave them to a few people who were struggling the way I had been. Their skin cleared, they told their friends, and it grew from there. Since we launched Norse, we have helped teens and adults around the world feel like themselves in their own skin again. Every jar is kept below the temperature that would kill the plants.

Norse has significantly improved my 14 yr old son's acne! He's been using it for over a month now and has seen more improvement with this product than any other product so far. He still has some breakouts but they are no where near as bad as they were prior. Even though the price is rather expensive, my sons confidence is starting to shine through again and for that reason, we are going to continue using this product!
My acne last year was the most painful cystic acne I’ve ever had. My mom found Norse Organics on an ad and decided to give it a try. I tried absolutely everything that I could at home and was so desperate for some sort of relief because it was so painful I couldn’t even smile. When I started using it I thought it was a gimmick but the more I used to the more my face seemed to calm down. Now a year later I have no active acne just some scarring!
As a 41 year old with cystic acne I didn't have high expectations. I see a dermatologist and to no avail. I can't afford laser right now so I tried this scrub. IT WORKS. I will repurchase when I run out. I use it in my cleanser every other day and wow. I am in love
I've struggled with acne for as long as I can remember. I've used countless washes, ointments, serums. You can imagine how expensive all of that is. I'm so happy to have found something that works for my skin. I've had this for almost two months and I'm not even halfway through. The only thing I can complain about is that my skin has felt a little dull since using, so I still use another moisturizer or serum to give my skin some luster. It's not a cure all, I still get acne, but not as bad as before.
I’ve been using this product since February, and it really has changed my skin (the pictures truly speak for themselves). I was a hesitant buyer but I was at the point where I would’ve tried almost anything. I had tried almost every other product and prescription for my skin (other than acutane) and this was my last resort before giving up and going to the dermatologist for another prescription. I’m so happy with my skin, and I haven’t be able to say that in over ten years.
Okay so I suffer tremendously with a mix of acne through anxiety and stress and significant redness to my cheeks. Sometimes my face is dry and even hurts... I've tried moisturisers. I've tried steroid creams and now something brought me to this. I apply every night and my skin feels alot smoother. The redness has improved massively but if I am honest I still suffer with regular breakouts as you can see by the uploaded photos. I have been using this for several weeks and will continue to do so in hope that my skin just needs a little longer to see such improvement. But a little is better than nothing I suppose and I remain hopeful.
Today is my 20th day using Norse. The first couple weeks my face was purging all the clogs pores so I broke out quite a bit but in the last week it has definitely calmed and is healing. My face is quite oily but I get dry patches. The dry patches have gotten much better. I feel like my face is moving in a good direction and I’m excited to see where my progress goes over the next month.
My 14yr old struggles terribly with his acne. He’s so self conscious and it’s affecting his school and social life. He’s was on antibiotics and dual gel for months and only got worse. Norse organics have been a game changer. Tge progress is slow, but there’s progress which is more than I can say for the medicine way!!
I do like the product so far. Shipping was fast, which was great. I have seen some improvement and have been consistent with the routine. I am hoping that with more time, my skin will continue to improve. I still have some redness, and some breakouts, (although they aren't as noticeable or as long lasting.). I am also hoping for improvement with my blackheads in my T-zone. Fingers crossed and stay tuned!
Gutted! Was really hopeful for this to help calm my acne after reading such great reviews, but it seems to just be making it worse.
Been following the cleaning regime religiously every day for 4 weeks and have seen no improvement at all infact it has just made my skin worse and more painful. Which is such a shame as I love the all natural products but it seems it just doesnt work for me.
Uploaded a before and after (current) photo. My daughter is seeing some improvement but not much. She has been using consistently and has seen very little change to her skin. Also the scrub spills every where each time she tries to open it and has wasted a lot of product due to poor packaging design.
These photos are taken 3 weeks apart. I used to have clear skin and after stopping birth control, I experienced new adult acne. I tried everything, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, Blume acne products (which eventually stopped working). I even went to a dermatologist who only suggested going on birth control again or taking medication. I was at a breaking point and decided to give Norse Organics a shot. I was worried that the reviews would be gimmicky and fake but I figured it was worth a shot for clean ingredients. After the first week, my skin did get worse and I almost stopped. The team at Norse Organics helped me through every step. I stuck with it and slowly but surely, my coloration improved, the texture evened, and my amount of pimples lessened. If pimples did pop up, they were not longer cysts but small white heads that healed within a day. Unfortunately, I had an allergic reaction to the almond in the product. Norse refunded me 100% without any questions asked. I am so sad to have to stop the product. Since getting off of Norse, my acne is now coming back. For those who do not have a nut allergy, I don’t just HIGHLY recommend but URGE you to try it🤍 Norse, please make a nut free version!! My skin needs to get back onto your products, it was the boost my confidence needed in the short month that I used it
It did not help with my cystic acne. i still get cystic acne on my jaw line. it’s hard to see in the photo but i still get huge cystic pimples on my forehead and tiny bumps. i popped the pimple and it has a pimple patch on it right now so it looks better. but these products did not help my acne.
I bought this in April ( 4 months ago) with really high hopes. I was patient and didn’t expect results right away. The clear skin that I was promised never came. I was still battling breakout after breakout. If I missed an application, it was even worse. I thought if I was more consistent that it would work. Still no. I am only giving this 3 starts because I like the fact that it is natural, the smell and texture are nice and I did have moments where I had hope that this could be the answer. But not enough for me to continue using the product. I switched back to cleansers that make my skin feel clean. The balm didn’t do that. Just felt like layering more oil on top of my oily skin.
Hi i honestly wanted to say a huge thank you and well done because your products have just amazingly changed my skin and boosted my self esteem so much, as unfortunately in January i was diagnosed with IBD which is a chronic illness and i had to start on a lot of new medication which was a huge shock to my body and i had so many changes in my skin and i got very bad hormonal and cystic acne which was a big change and took a dip in my body image as i gained a lot of weight with the steroids and honestly now my body is quite back to normal but my skin wasn’t so I decided to try your products and they just made miracles. So thank you so much
It says it can be kept out but keeping it in a mini fridge is so much better! Take away redness instantly, And I’m loving it so far about 30 days in, but it does make your face oily for a long time
the packs contains 3 sheets of 30 each so a total of 90! they feel like regular store bought patches but probably work better, haven’t tried yet but i’m very hopeful! :)
So far, I like the feeling of moisturizing that it leaves. But until I didn't see any radical changes on my acne, but it's a kinda a new feeling, because I doing something new for my skin. First, stop using washing products I think is been helpful, the pores look more small and someway I feel my skin more healthy from inside thanks to the natural products.
But the other hand, I saw some darks spots, I still have some acne areas that I feel delicate, like the closest to the jaw, but some of the pimples and blackheads, start to take less to disappear.
If your problem is just active acne and redness, it is a perfect product to use.
But it won’t help you with scars and pores .
I using it about 2 months now and see a difference. Much better .
Thanks
Only been 3 weeks, heres some backstory
I'm in my late teens and struggle with cystic, hormonal, and closed comedone acne. I've tried dozens of skincare plans, and my most recent was PanOxl cleanser, azelaic acid, and a moisturizer in the morning with adapeline and a night cream in the evening. my skin was getting worse, it was dry and flaky, and constantly peeling. After 4 months of this I decided to stop and I tried norse organics. Within 2 days the texture on my forehead was completely gone. While my cheeks still look pretty much the same, my skin is significantly less dry and patchy, and it FEELS healthier. Hopefully I get results soon-I still have a few weeks to go before I should see the full results, and I can't wait.
I’ve dealt with acne since I was about 12 years old. As an almost 40 year old woman, I’m tried of it. I’ve tried everything short of accurate from drug store to prescriptions. Norse Organics has been incredible! My skin is clearer than it’s ever been. I don’t have dry spots, tight or itchy skin, and very few blemishes around my hormonal cycle. I’ve also started using it on my dry, cracked knuckles and can honestly say, I would buy it just for that at this point! The healing is REAL! This stuff works!
I've been suffering with hormonal acne now for a few years, with some breakouts taking months to recover. Particularly this area at the side of my forehead, usually has 1 or 2 nasty red spots at any given time!
I'm 2 weeks in to using the norse products and have noticed my skin feels just the right level of moisture. Not dry and inflamed from using harsh washes, and not craving the tonnes of moisurising products I normally use.
My skin tone looks better, less red in areas. I have had a couple of new spots, but nothing swollen and nasty as yet and hopefully will clear quickly.
I'm optomistic that continuing using norse organics will help to clear my acne problems, so far so good.
It has taken awhile but we found a pattern with this cream that has helped. The acne hasn’t completely disappeared but the bumps are smaller and not as noticeable as they were when we first started
Been using Norse Organics for around 19
days now. I am getting used to the new routine of putting on the different balm at morning and night and then the scrub every couple of days. My spots have gotten smaller and not as easy to see but I am still getting some one or two new ones each day. I don’t think the my skin is as oily anymore in my T-zone and it is definitely not dry or flaky where the spots are. I find it a little difficult to put my tinted moisturiser over the day glow balm but maybe I haven’t perfected the application of the day balm yet as I do not want to use too much or too little. I am going to persevere with it as I want to give it the full 60 days to feel the most benefits.
I have been using the acne regimen for almost 2 months. I have not seen much progress. I will say specific breakouts seem to heal faster, but my breakouts still are pretty bad and haven't gotten better.
My acne didn’t clear yet but I can see it’s getting better little by little. I have try many products that just make my skin worse and now Norse has change it.
These products have absolutely changed my life. They’re so simple to use yet so effective! I’ve spent hundreds (maybe thousands) of dollars over the years to try and manage my deep cystic acne. The photos don’t really show it, but they were so painful and deep. Antibiotics and acne medication never really solved the problem. Always red, always inflamed. Within a day, I knew these products were legit. I understand some people think these are expensive, but you truly see results immediately. I think I’ll be a customer for life at this rate! I will say, I love the Kill Acne and Redness Ritual kit more than The Complete Acne Killer System 2.0. The other kit seems a bit more oily for me, but still does the job!
These photos are just one week apart. Now
a month after starting this routine, I am completely acne free and my skin has never looked better. I’ve done Accutane as many other others have shared, and it helped for a long time, but left my skin, red, dry and then still breaking out after a year or so. I am so impressed with this product and will be buying again. Already have told so many friends and family.
