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.

Vad innehåller ritualen?
Ritual mot Akne & Rodnad är ett komplett system byggt för att lugna akneutbrott och rodnad dygnet runt. Tre produkter, var och en löser en del av problemet, så inget blir obehandlat.
1 x Pimple Stopper Dagbalsam 30 ml
Reglerar talg och lugnar akneutbrott hela dagen, så glans och nya finnar inte byggs upp innan du gör din kvällsrutin.
1 x Pimple Stopper Nattbalsam 35 ml
Kraftpaketet. Lugnar akneutbrott och rodnad medan du sover, när din hud gör mest av sin reparation.
1 x Skrubb för Aknebenägen Hud 30 ml
Rensar död hud och överflödig olja som täpper till dina porer, så balsamen kan faktiskt komma till arbete istället för att sitta på toppen.
Tre produkter, tre uppgifter, en rutin. Ingenting saknas, inget extra behövs.
Vem är den för?
Ritual mot Akne & Rodnad är för alla med aknebenägen hud som vill ha lugnare hud:
Tonåringar, unga vuxna och vuxna som fortfarande kämpar med akneutbrott.
De flesta av våra kunder är tonåringar, för tonåringar är de som vill ha ren hud nu, inte om sex månader. Men hormonella akneutbrott, stressutbrott och svettutlösta akneutbrott stannar inte vid 19 år. Om du får utbrott, fungerar detta, oavsett ålder och vad som orsakar det. Se före- och efterbilder →
Ingredienser vi använder
Ingen parfym. Inga hårda sulfater. Bara kraftfulla, naturliga aktiva ingredienser som lugnar irriterad, aknebenägen hud snabbt. Ingenting som blekar dina handdukar.
Pimple Stopper Dagbalsam
HavtornsoljaTistelolja
Ledd av Havtornsolja och Tistelolja, lätta växter som reglerar fett och lugnar akneutbrott hela dagen, tillräckligt mild för känslig eller svettbelastad hud.
Ledd av Rismjöl och Aprikoskärnpulver, mild exfoliering som rensar död hud och överflödig olja utan rodnad eller irritation som hårda skrubbar orsakar.
Applicera varje morgon. Tunnt lager, noll fillers, extremt potent.
Nattbalsam
Applicera varje kväll före sänggående. För envisa finnar kan du applicera 3–4 gånger dagligen.
Skrubb
Använd 2–3 gånger i veckan under duschen. Endast torra händer — ta en nypa och blanda med vatten i handflatan, skrubba i 1–2 minuter. Håll burken torr; vatten inuti kan orsaka mögel.
Hoppa över allt annat: ingen ansiksrengöring, ingen rengöring, inga extra steg.
Efter 30 till 60 dagar: renare, lugnare hud för de flesta användare.
Resultaten varierar för varje individ, men 97 % av våra kunder är nöjda med sina resultat, och 93 % sa att det var den bästa produkten de någonsin prövat. Se den fullständiga studien →
Några rapporterar resultat redan efter en natt, på bara 8 till 12 timmar: mindre rodnad, oljproduktion lugnar ner sig, inga nya finnar. Inte alla får omedelbar effekt, för vissa tar det 30 till 60 dagar. Om utbrott dyker upp runt din cykel, ge ritualen en fullständig cykel för att se dess fulla effekt. Vill du se det själv? Se verkliga kundresultat →
Renare hud på 60 dagar eller pengarna tillbaka
Varför kräver vi 60 dagars användning?
Ge bara din hud hela 60 dagar för att återställas. Även om många av våra kunder märker effekter över en natt, kan det ibland ta tid att rensa all smuts i porerna och justera oljproduktionen och hudens elasticitet.
Det här är villkoren för garantin som du måste följa för att vara berättigad till nöjd-eller-pengarna-tillbaka-garanti. Garantin gäller endast ritualer och prenumerationsbeställningar. Max 1 per kund eller beställning, vi återbetalar maximalt 1 ritual per beställning eller kund. Följ användningsanvisningarna, vilket betyder att du har använt produkterna enligt instruktion.
Steg för att göra anspråk på det. Först fyller du i formuläret. Sedan kontaktar vi dig omkring 2 veckor efter inlämningen.
17 year old is smiling again!
My daughter struggled for a long time with hormonal acne, we tried several different systems to get her some relief (pro-active among others), but all they did was dry her skin out and make her acne worse. We were even contemplating visiting a doctor for some stronger prescription level stuff (but had heard the horror stories associated with that.) I use the Frøya organics balms (which is their sister company and they have a lot of the same ingredients but are marketed more towards mature skin) and have had success with them, so I decided to order the Norse complete acne system for my daughter to try after seeing all the good reviews. At first she was apprehensive because of how oily the product is, but I told her to give it a try and see if it helps, worst case scenario we’re in the same situation we’re in now. She tried it, stopped all of her other skincare products and applied it religiously every day. After the first week her skin’s inflammation started to calm down and she said her skin felt really soft and hydrated. After the second week her acne started to clear up, after the third week her friends started noticing and commenting on how clear and healthy her skin looks. Now we are on week 4 and she said to me ‘Mom, you really need to leave a review for this stuff cause this is crazy’, so here we are. Her skin is still healing, and she still has the occasional break out, but there is a night and day difference from where her skin was before using this balm and where she is now. So trust the process and if you’ve tried everything else, maybe take a chance on Norse and it could surprise you like it did us.
So far I have seen a reduction in my chin acne that unfortunately I have developed a re occurring issue with over the past year .
I wouldn’t say my spots have gone , I had a bit of purging at the start of treatment .
I am willing to continue .
Compared to the red , cystic inflammation I had a month ago.
It is gradually getting better .
I totally got cured from my HSV2 with a strong and active herbal medicine ordered from a powerful herbalist and it completely fought the virus from my nervous system and I was tested negative after 14days of using the herbal medicine, if you also need help contact him on email; drobuduherbalhome@gmail. com or via WhatsApp +2349023428871
The products work, just with consistent use and lack of using makeup. Definitely takes some time to see results. As a student I was surprised by the sizes when it arrived given the prices, buts it’s lasted quite a while as you only need a little. Not a huge fan of the orange look you get from the morning one but it works at preventing breakouts when I normally get them from touching my face during the day. Scarring is slowly fading from the night cream although it’s not a super hydrating cream, more of a serum feel. The exfoliating one is extremely harsh but good for removing crusty skin post breakout, I don’t use very often as it’s harsh like sandpaper. Gone through lots of acne products and I’d say it works - but there are other products out there that could do a similar job for a fraction of the price, but you wouldn’t get the organic ingredients or that nice natural herbal scent you get from Norse. Would recommend if you can afford.
We have been using this product on my son's face and back for 21 days now. It feels like things have gotten worse so far, but we are trying to stick it out. The first 2 pictures were from the day we started, Sept 2, 2026. The other 2 are from yesterday, Sept. 23, 2026.
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! :)
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
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!
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!
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 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.
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
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
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.
