FINNISH skincare line Djusie has just launched in the UK and this is a very good thing. Stocked exclusively at Content Beauty – one of the earliest exponents of organic and natural beauty, founded in 2008 – the Scandinavian Ecocert-certified brand has definitely found itself the right retailer.
Djusie (pronounced, as you might have guessed, as “juicy”) is the brainchild of Katja Kokko, a beauty therapist with over two decades of experience in the industry, who has a background in traditional Chinese medicine. Advocating for the most effective Finnish ingredients, the three products in the line are bursting with Flowering Quince Oil, also known as Nordic Lemon, which is dense in vitamin E and carotenoids.
Djusie Range (Set £119)
Start off with the Liquid Silk Perfect Cleansing Oil (£35), which has to be one of the most enjoyable cleansers we have tried. Dressed in a beautiful orange and pink patterned bottle (the Djusie packaging is a joy in itself), the grapefruit-fragranced potion melts away make-up and leaves skin feeling super soft and refreshed.
Djusie Skincare: Acid Bloom Balancing Essence
For some effective exfoliation, try the Acid Bloom Balancing Essence (£39). As a daily toner, which actually feels more like a luxurious serum, skin is left feeling hydrated and brightened through gotu kola (a herbaceous plant known for its soothing properties) and reishi mushroom, which works wonders on pigmentation. The essence works equally well as a cleansing agent, should a lighter texture be your preference.
The finishing touch in the range is the delightfully named Fruit Glaze (£49), a rich facial oil that smells utterly gorgeous. Its stunning scent of rose geranium and bergamot is a true treat and the lingonberry seeds which form the oil’s foundation (sourced directly from Finland and Sweden, no less), help to moisturise the skin beautifully.
Djusie Skincare: Fruit Glaze Facial Oil
Lined up on your bathroom shelf, this carefully curated range of three products not only looks fantastic but actually delivers excellent results, in a way that is considerate. Deriving its superstar ingredients from renewable resources, Djusie can only be celebrated for its environmental awareness, underlining the fact that a three-step beauty routine is not only adequate, but great for both the consumer and the planet.
