    I've been a "beauty girl" since I was 19. I've tried, gifted, reviewed, and silently rejected more skincare than most humans see in a lifetime. So when I tell you something works on a teenager please know I’m not saying it lightly!

    Norse Organics is what you leave on the counter. Arctic botanicals. Real ingredients that actually heal acne instead of just drying everything out. Clean, raw, bursting with antioxidants from the freezing North. It works. They won't tell you it works. But it works.

    Norse is such a breath of fresh air. It’s made from sea buckthorn, wild marigold, thistle oil, borage, mixed with beeswax. My son puts a little on at night and walks away. That's the routine. That's all of it. He's been doing it for months, which in teenage boy terms is basically a marriage.

Why arctic ingredients are incredibly powerful

1. MUST SURVIVE HARSH WINTERS

The arctics have winters of -40°F to -58°F (-40°C to -50°C). To survive this and deep snow the plants need to be resilient.

2. VERY SHORT RIPENING WINDOW

The plants need to bloom fast because of short summer. So they push all the nutrition to the leaves at the same time.

3. COMPETES WITH OTHER SPECIES

When plants grow in the wild they need to fight off other plants and insects in a diverse environment. Making them strong.

4. INSTANT CALM FOR RED, ANGRY SKIN

The world's most powerful plants like Sea Buckthorn (190 bioactive compounds), Rosehip & Arnica calm and soothe stressed skin. You can see a difference in days.

5. LONG-TERM SKIN BARRIER SUPPORT

Marigold, Beeswax & Thistle support your natural skin barrier and help balance oil production.

So easy even teens love it

BALMS - EVERY MORNING & NIGHT

Use the Day Balm for Acne-Prone Skin every morning, and the Night Balm for Acne-Prone Skin every night before bed. The industry standard is to put 70% water in their products.

We have 0% water. You only need a small amount of balm.

SCRUB - 3 TIMES PER WEEK

It's powder - keep the jar level. Don't add water to the jar. Don't grab powder with wet hands. Use it 2-3 times per week in the shower. Before entering the shower, add 3 pinches of powder to your palm with dry hands. Then mix it with water in your palm and scrub your face.

OTHER PRODUCTS

Don't use any other products. No face washes, no cleansers. Most people overwash their skin, and the skin responds to the following dryness with an overproduction of oils. This clogs the pores and causes more blemishes and bad skin. If you shower daily, that's enough. And use the scrub three times per week in the shower.

The Science

Pubmed has over 700,000+ studies about our ingredients. They have also been used in traditional medicine for 1000s of years. Some results from 3rd-party studies (read more studies here)

Latest Facebook Reviews

Product review from Nicole Wallis about a skincare product for her children.

Why trust us when you tried everything and everyone lied?

We know you have tried everything, and everyone claims they can help you. But nothing works. Maybe you've tried benzo, doxy, Rx, OTC creams, retinols, antibiotics and Azelaic Acid. Combine that with exhausting diet changes and hefty sheet changing, and it's no wonder you are sick of it. Sick of all the lies from companies that claim they can help you...

Norse is unlike anything you have ever seen or felt. Look at the products. Pure plant extract and arctic beeswax mixed together purely to take care of acne-prone skin once and for all. No cheap fillers or BS. Look at our reviews. No brands have reviews like us. We have helped 800,000+ REAL people.

I know you still have your doubts, even considering all of this. You have been lied to SO many times. That's why we offer the 100% money back guarantee on top of all this. Just send us an email if you're not happy and we will refund you immediately. Now it's up to you to take the leap of faith, and maybe you will send us a DM like hundreds before you in a couple of weeks: "I can't believe I didn't start sooner". Please take a before-and-after photo. Nothing makes us happier than seeing another set of before-and-afters.

CAN WOMEN USE THIS?

Absolutely. Our Arctic plant formula is made for acne-prone skin, and it suits everyone. Thousands of women (and teens) use Norse daily because nature works on human skin, period.

CAN TEENS USE THIS?

Yes, it is a gentle choice for them. Teens are already dealing with major hormonal changes during puberty. The last thing they need is skincare filled with synthetic ingredients. Norse is 100% natural, making it a sensible choice for younger skin.

Does it work on body acne?

Yes. You can use it on back, chest, and shoulders too. Because it is natural and gentle, you can apply it anywhere you get breakouts, to calm and soothe the skin.

What results can I expect?

Results may vary for each individual. However, 97% of our customers are satisfied with the product. 93% said it was the best product they ever tried.

Some people notice a difference after one night. After 8-12 hours.

  • Skin looks calmer
  • Skin feels more comfortable
  • Fewer new breakouts

Not everyone gets instant results. For some individuals, it may take 30-60 days.

What type of skin does it work on?

Every type. Our formula was engineered for the harsh extremes of Norway (from -30°C to +30°C). Because it is built to protect against that, it works effectively for everyone. It is suitable for oily, dry, sensitive, and combination skin, and works perfectly on all skin tones and facial hair styles.

Washing face/cleanser

We generally recommend skipping them. Most people overwash their faces. Harsh cleansers strip away natural moisture, forcing the skin to panic and overproduce oil to fix the dryness. This excess oil clogs pores and actually causes more breakouts.
The Logic: Water from your regular shower is enough for daily rinsing. Use the Norse Scrub 3 times a week for a deep, safe clean that doesn't strip your barrier.

MAKE-UP

We recommend minimizing it. Heavy makeup can clog pores and slow your progress. It is best to give your skin a break so it can breathe and recover. How to remove it: Please avoid harsh cleansers, as they strip the skin. Instead, use the Day Balm for Acne-Prone Skin or even simple extra virgin olive oil. These gently dissolve makeup without damaging your skin barrier.

Should you exfoliate if you have acne?

Yes, and it helps more than most people expect. Exfoliating acne-prone skin works by removing dead skin cells, oil, and dirt from your skin's surface before they clog pores into blackheads and whiteheads or other blemishes.

The catch is staying gentle, since hard scrubbing can irritate breakouts and pimples and make them worse. This scrub uses fine plant powders to clear that buildup and support natural cell renewal without scratching your skin.

What is the best face scrub for acne?

The best one clears buildup while staying gentle on breakout-prone skin. A lot of scrubs use rough grains like crushed walnut shells or plastic exfoliating beads, and those can scratch and cause tiny micro tears in acne-prone skin.

Our Scrub for Acne-Prone Skin avoids that, using fine rice, apricot, and rose powders that buff gently without causing irritation. With regular use, it can soften the look of dark spots. As a gentle organic face scrub , it stays safe for most skin types, including oily, dry, and sensitive, and helps bring out a more radiant complexion.

What's in it, and how do the ingredients help acne-prone skin?

It is made with three natural ingredients and no fillers. Each one has a job:

  • Rice flour gently buffs off dead skin cells and soaks up excess oil.
  • Apricot kernel powder lifts away dirt and rough patches to improve skin texture.
  • Rose flour is a soothing ingredient that calms redness and inflammation and helps fight the bacteria linked to acne.

You can see the full breakdown on our ingredients page.

Is a face scrub or a chemical exfoliant better for acne-prone skin?

The catch is that some exfoliating acids can sting or irritate sensitive, easily irritated skin. Physical exfoliants are different, since a gentle scrub clears the same buildup through physical exfoliation with no acids at all.

Dermatologists tend to say the gentler the better for acne-prone skin, so unlike harsh chemical exfoliators or other exfoliants, this is a natural alternative to salicylic acid that keeps your pores clear.

How do you use it for the best results?

It takes less than a minute. Here is the simple way to use it:

  1. Wet your face, or use it right after your face wash, and add a small amount to damp skin.
  2. Massage it in with light, circular motions for about 30 seconds.
  3. Rinse with water, pat dry, then follow with your balm, which absorbs into clean skin and can penetrate deeper.

How often should you use it, and can you over-exfoliate?

Regular exfoliation two to three times a week is the sweet spot for most skin. Like all exfoliating products, more is not better, since over-exfoliating can strip your skin barrier and leave it dry, tight, and prone to flaky patches. If your skin feels sensitive, drop back to once or twice a week.

How often comes down to personal preference and what your skin tolerates. Used gently and on a regular schedule, it keeps skin looking fresh, even on aging skin.

Will it cause purging or breakouts when you start?

It is unlikely to cause a purge. Purging is usually tied to acids and retinoids that speed up cell turnover, and this scrub uses neither. Used gently, it should not trigger new breakouts. Scrubbing too hard or too often can irritate sensitive skin, so if yours feels stingy or raw, ease off.

Do you need the full routine, or is the scrub enough?

The scrub works well on its own as a gentle exfoliating step. It does its best work as prep, since clean skin soaks up whatever you put on next. For full results, it fits into a simple skincare routine alongside two balms in the Kill Acne & Redness Ritual , which targets more of your skin concerns at once:

  • Scrub for Acne-Prone Skin: clears dead skin and unclogs pores so the balms absorb.
  • Day Balm: uses hydrating ingredients to calm, moisturize, and protect your skin through the day.
  • Night Balm: works overnight to calm and soothe skin.

Used together, they support acne-prone skin at every step, which is why the full set works faster than the scrub alone.

Can you use it alongside acne medication or other actives?

We suggest keeping it simple and using the scrub as part of our own set, since the products are made to work together. Layering lots of other skincare products and active ingredients at once is what tends to trigger more irritation and breakouts. When you are on a prescription, check with your doctor before adding anything new.

How fast does it ship, and what are the delivery details?

Orders ship fast from local warehouses, so you are not left waiting. Most US orders arrive in about 2 to 5 days, with quick delivery across Europe and Australia too. Full delivery and returns details on our FAQ page.

"If we don't help you, we don't want your money!"

Chemicals failed me. Nature saved my skin.
"I spent years battling acne with harsh prescriptions that only burned my skin and crushed my confidence. Refusing to give up, I searched for a better way. That journey led me to discover the power of wild Arctic plants. I decided to build Norse Organics to share that discovery. A solution that is finally safe and effective. I want that same freedom for your child. We are so confident this works that if you don't see results in 60 days, I will refund every penny. No questions asked."
