BÖRLIND – a company portrait

Beauty from Nature
Annemarie Börlind – the brand name for healthy beauty with the revitalizing strength of nature. This medium-sized family concern, situated in the idyllic Black Forest, is one of the leading manufacturers of high quality natural cosmetics for beauty and body care. Annemarie Börlind beauty care products are based on natural active ingredients.

Natural cosmetics – a term which still causes misunderstanding, has been clearly defined by the Börlind product philosophy:

Annemarie Börlind beauty care products contain 100% natural ingredients, which gently and naturally care for and improve the functions of the skin.

Only natural, high quality raw ingredients, whenever possible from controlled organic sources, are used for the manufacture of our cosmetic products. this includes valuable botanical oils, pure herbal extracts, valuable vitamins, active agents from the sea, moisturizing factors and much more. Modern production methods and the latest technological knowledge ensure the careful processing of these delicate substances.

The principle of carefully extracting all possible active agents contained in an extract is similar to the principles of whole food nutrition. Only first pressing botanical oils are used, as they have the highest content of active agents, vitamins and lecithin. As soil quality, location and climate all influence the quality of botanical raw ingredients, these factors are all taken into account when selecting the ingredients. Paraffin and synthetic oils are not used.

The products themselves are only conserved with natural preservatives. They do not contain synthetic preservatives, which can disrupt the natural skin functions. For ethical reasons we do not use fresh cell extracts, collagen, elastin, placenta etc., which are all obtained from dead animals. Equally, Annemarie Börlind has always refused to carry out animal tests. All products are tested for their skin-compatibility in dermatological clinics. The high quality of the natural ingredients used and the dermatological tests ensure excellent efficacy and optimal skin-compatibility.
