A talented esthetician's 15-year relationship with a family-made Swedish oil, and the Scandinavian idea behind why it works
If you’re new to MyHavtorn, or just want to remind yourself of how special these products are, check out this clip from Dara’s recent chat with the esthetician Erica Randlett (who, by the way, gives an absolutely otherworldly Gua Sha facial—she's been part of our facial residency program). Erica is the person who first introduced us to MyHavtorn; fifteen years ago, Erica stumbled upon their best-selling Facial Oil during a trip to visit family in Sweden and has been using the products consistently ever since.
"I went into a shop and I said, I want good local oil for my skin," she remembers. "They gave me the oil; I started using it, and the cream as well. I had a lot of inflammation in my skin, borderline rosacea, and it just...calmed my skin down...and I really haven't used anything else since, because it was so good."
At 63, with no injectables or in-office treatments, Erica credits that consistency for her skin's radiance and resilience (which, by the way, is otherworldly, too). Check out her chat with Dara below, where she explains why she calls MyHavtorn "lagom skincare."
