CELEBRATING ONE YEAR OF OUR ANTI-AGING LINE

The power of the ocean meets Icelandic innovation in ChitoCare beauty’s Anti-Aging skincare line, which marks its first anniversary this month.

SMOOTHER, FIRMER SKIN – NATURALLY

Developed with chitosan—extracted from discarded shrimp shells and produced at our chitosan factory in Siglufjörður—our products are backed by years of research demonstrating the remarkable benefits of this bioactive ingredient for the skin.

THE POWER OF CHITOSAN

At the heart of our award-winning skincare line lies chitosan, a bioactive ingredient renowned for its healing properties. Chitosan delivers intense hydration and powerful antioxidant protection while reducing inflammation and redness. But what exactly is chitosan? It’s a natural polymer composed of amino sugars, which are already present in the body, making it highly biocompatible. It works by forming a protective film over the skin, helping to shield it while providing a cooling, soothing effect.

PATENTED FORMULA FOR NATURAL ANTI-AGING

A year ago, we harnessed the exceptional properties of chitosan to combat visible signs of aging, launching the ChitoCare beauty Anti-Aging skincare line. This collection is unique worldwide, as every product in the line contains our patented ChitoCare Repair® complex, a formulation designed to maximize the rejuvenating power of chitosan.

"When developing the line, we focused on mature skin and how to reduce the signs of aging in a natural way," says Sigríður V. Vigfúsdóttir, CEO and founder of ChitoCare beauty. "Chitosan stimulates collagen production and accelerates the skin’s repair process, which is why it has been widely used in wound healing to promote tissue regeneration."

While particularly beneficial for mature skin, these products are also well-suited for sensitive skin and conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, acne or rosacea. Our face creams offer deep hydration, making them ideal for normal to dry skin.

CLINICALLY PROVEN EFFECTIVENESS

In the world of skincare, results matter. That’s why every product in our Anti-Aging line has been clinically tested for proven effectiveness. "I believe that skincare brands have a responsibility to ensure the efficacy of their products," says Sigríður. "Customer satisfaction surveys are valuable, but clinical studies provide concrete proof of real results."

YOUR ROUTINE FOR REJUVENATED SKIN

The ChitoCare beauty Anti-Aging line has gained widespread popularity and consists of four essential products:

1. Anti-Aging Repair Serum – A fast-absorbing, deeply hydrating facial serum that combats signs of aging caused by pollution and stress.
2. Anti-Aging Day Cream SPF20 & Anti-Aging Night Cream – Formulated with natural and active ingredients to improve skin elasticity, firmness, and smoothness while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
3. Anti-Aging Eye Cream – Made with 99% natural ingredients, this eye cream hydrates and firms the delicate eye area, reducing dark circles, puffiness, and wrinkles.

To complete the experience, we have also created the Ocean Breeze Candle, a signature scented candle, inspired by the fresh sea breeze of the Icelandic coast—bringing a sense of tranquillity to your skincare routine.

Since launching, we have received multiple awards and recognitions. Our Day Cream was selected as the Best Moisturizer of 2024 on mbl.is' Smartland beauty section, while our Eye Cream was chosen as one of the Best Eye Creams For Cold Weather.
