THE VALUES
Being a value-driven enterprise, MĂ DARA believes that the best skin care is the kind of care that goes deeper than skin. MĂ DARA challenges traditional cultural and industry norms with NATURE, SCIENCE, HUMANIT Y AND SUSTAINABILIT Y.
As a result, people tired from the urban life and challenges are inspired to rediscover their natural appearance and values to feel comfortable in their own skin again.
THE VISION
THE VISION OF THE BRAND
is to outmatch the synthetic and artificial with natural solutions. People want to be able to handle the consequences of modern life (fatigue and ageing) and to acquire new strength.
OUR TASK IS TO PROVIDE THEM WITH NATURAL SOLUTIONS. MÁDARA BELIEVES AND PROVES THAT ANY THING THAT IS CREATED SYNTHETICALLY CAN ALSO BE MADE FROM NATURAL INGREDIENTS.
If this is not possible, then it is unfit for humans.
UNIQUE INGREDIENTS FROM NORTHERN AND ARCTIC REGIONS
Our unique ingredients are harvested mainly in the Baltic/Northern region: e.g., rejuvenating birch water, vitamin-rich berries, mineral-rich fossil mud, antioxidant-packed herbs and omega-rich seed oils.
At first being charmed by Asian Beauty, starting MĂ DARA I realised that there is a huge potential in the ingredients coming from my own region. I love to call it Northern Beauty. LO T TE, M Ă DA R A F O U N DER
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT, RESEARCH AND INNOVATION
Each product is exclusively developed in the company’s own R&D department and lab in collaboration with the leading scientists and dermatologists. This ensures unique and highly specialised formulations, fast integration of innovative solutions, and quick adaptation to ever-changing market and customer needs, as well as new trends.
NORTHERN CLIMATE AND THE SKIN
IT IS NO SECRET THAT NORTHERN CLIMATE CAN BE HARSH TO THE SKIN.
A research estimates that one in four (~ 1 million) people in Finland experiences skin problems, such as atopic skin. Wind, cold and indoor heat dries the skin leaving it more vulnerable and sensitive – less able to tolerate harsh ingredients, such as synthetic preservatives, colourants and perfumes. Mà DARA N-Beauty formulation approach is to create intensely replenishing yet soothing natural products for the most demanding types of skin.
THE TARGET AUDIENCE GENDER: main focus on female
(men can use the products as well) AGE: Two groups we focus on 23-30 and 30-45 DEMOGRAPHIC: Educated working class CONCEPT : Skin care for mindful individuals

They need and want brands and products that enhance their lives in all aspects – highest quality, positive image, effectiveness and captivating stories.
