6 Nordic Beauty Brands On Everyone’s Lips in 2021

Swedish beauty brands are recognised as being innovative, high-quality, trendy & beautifully packaged – whilst often being packed full of natural ingredients that are good for the body, and the planet too. Even Korea, famous for its revolutionising beauty innovations and with the metropolis Seoul named as “the beauty capital of the world” by Conde Nast, has got its eyes wide-open to Scandinavian beauty.

Here are the six Swedish beauty brands that we at Goodwille tip to be a huge hit in 2021;
