Norse Organics is a Norwegian skincare brand that’s received thousands of positive reviews online. Its flagship product, the Acne & Redness Killer, has helped transform people’s skin in as little as 7 days. This indie skincare brand is gaining a lot of traction for being high-quality and performance-driven.
So I wanted to know whether Norse Organics is worth the hype. I’ve tested the 6-in-1 Daily Glow & Moisturize and Wrinkle & Dark Circle Warrior on my oily and mildly sensitive skin for the last few weeks to test how effective they are.
This review will tell you everything you need to know about Norse Organics and whether you need to add the 6-in-1 Daily Glow & Moisturize and Wrinkle & Dark Circle Warrior to your basket.
About Norse Organics: A commitment to ethics and sustainability
Norse Organics‘ range is primarily aimed at men; however, all genders, skin types, and colours can use the products. Whether you’ve got oily, sensitive, combination, dry, or dehydrated skin, there’s a product for you! The brand’s whole ethos revolves around a small yet powerful range of products that are effective and eliminate the need for 10-step skincare routines from big brands.
However, perhaps the brand’s biggest selling point is its commitment to ethics, sustainability, and responsible sourcing of ingredients.
Norse Organics is cruelty-free. The Scandinavian brand is also committed to sustainability, as its packaging is eco-friendly, recyclable, and made with minimal impact on the environment. All products are handmade.
To source the ingredients, Norse Organics wild harvests plants that grow naturally on the Norwegian mountainside. It says this process captures the highest quality antioxidant potential.
“We naturally dry the flowers at 22 degrees for multiple days. This keeps all the nutrients and lets us make products of a much higher quality.” – Norse Organics
Norse Organics also offers a guarantee where if you don’t see results within 60 days, you can get your money back. More details here.
1. Norse Organics 6-in-1 Daily Glow & Moisturize review
£39
About the product
The Norse Organics 6-in-1 Daily Glow & Moisturize is a daily balm that’s designed to give skin an instant glow, clean dirt and acne, reduce redness and dark circles, moisturise, provide anti-ageing benefits, and protect against pollution. This balm claims to work for all skin types and colours and in extreme weather conditions.
Key ingredients in this daytime balm include hydrating safflower oil, skin-restoring beeswax, soothing sea buckthorn oil, skin-softening rose hip oil, among others.
My experience
I love the balmy texture. It’s rich but not greasy. A little bit of product goes a long way, as the consistency is quite thick. I just dab my index finger into the product a couple of times and then massage the balm into my skin. I use the product just like I would a usual daytime moisturiser – on clean, dry skin after toners, essences, and serums, but before SPF.
I love how this smooths over my skin. It feels immediately moisturising and soothing. I was worried that the balmy texture might lead to pilling, but it works wonderfully with other skincare products without going bitty or gritty. My skin feels comfortable, hydrated, and non-oily all day.
As the balm has an orange tint, it also gives a bit of a tanned effect. It makes my skin look healthy and radiant.
I can see this tin lasting me ages, as I don’t need much product at all! This is a great moisturiser with tonnes of skin-loving ingredients.

2. Norse Organics Wrinkle & Dark Circle Warrior review
£59
About the product
The Norse Organics Wrinkle & Dark Circle Warrior is supposed to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, speed up collagen production, moisturise and tighten the skin, and reduce dark circles and puffiness. This balm claims to work for all skin types and colours and in extreme weather conditions.
Key ingredients in this balm include hydrating safflower oil, skin-restoring beeswax, skin-softening rose hip oil, moisturising pomegranate oil, among others.
My experience
Just like the moisturising balm, the Wrinkle & Dark Circle Warrior has a lovely, non-oily, and rich balmy consistency. I dab my index finger very lightly into the balm and apply it to areas my “problem areas” i.e. dark circles and fine lines. You can use this balm twice per day and all over your skin, but I like to apply it in the evening. I use the product just like I would a usual moisturiser – on clean, dry skin after toners, essences, and serums.
This has the same wonderful benefits as the 6-in-1 Daily Glow & Moisturize; it smooths over the skin effortlessly, doesn’t pill, delivers long-lasting nourishment, feels comfortable, and adds glow to the skin. It also gives a natural tanned effect to the skin thanks to the balm’s warm orange tint.
As this balm provides some radiance, I think it gives the appearance of brighter under-eyes, so dark circles are less noticeable. I’ve not noticed any difference in the fine lines under my eyes or on my forehead yet, but I think this will come with continued use.
Again, I see this product lasting me for a long time, as you barely need any product to get results. This is another great balm that you can incorporate into your skincare routine easily.

Overall Norse Organics review
Overall, I’m thoroughly impressed with Norse Organics. These products are effective, long-lasting, and well worth adding to your basket. As you can see in the picture above (right), the balms give the skin a healthy glow, all while delivering a smooth finish and lasting hydration.
It’s clear to see why the products have had thousands of 5-star reviews!
Hi Sarah, I am considering this product for my daughter who has acne. I tried 47 skin but did not really work and was going to buy again but consider changing to norse. Do you recommend for acne or do you know anyone in your research that genuinely got results as all the 5 star reviews just seem too good to be true. thanks, Clare
Hi Clare,
Thanks for commenting! I don’t know anyone personally that’s tried Norse for acne and also don’t have acne myself. I reckon it’d be worth trying, as it’s very highly rated. Also, it’s on sale right now for Black Friday, so if you were looking to try it out, now would be a good time to buy 🙂 everyone’s skin is different, but hopefully Norse will give your daughter the results she’s after
On Amazon, Norse Organics country of origin is China. I’m very confused by this
Unfortunately, those ones on Amazon are fake and not the official Norse Organics brand
I love the sound of the moisturiser in particular. I imagine it would feel great on my drier skin!
