Made in Iceland

Nestled in Iceland’s pristine environment, BIOEFFECT harnesses the power of nature to create exceptionally pure skincare. The clean unpolluted air, nutrient-rich soil, and crystal-clear Icelandic water provide the ideal conditions for cultivating our barley, ensuring the highest-quality ingredients. This unique ecosystem allows us to deliver skincare free from unnecessary additives — pure, potent, and effective.

Not only are our growth factors grown in barley plants in a greenhouse in Iceland, but we are also exploring the challenging yet exciting prospect of cultivating barley outdoors — showcasing the resilience of our innovative approach to sustainable plant-biotechnology.

After harvesting, we extract and refine the barley-derived growth factors into a pure, potent powder, which is then incorporated into BIOEFFECT skincare formulations. As a result, your skin recognizes and responds effectively to these biocompatible growth factors, enhancing their efficacy.

Besides our key ingredients, the growth factors, being produced in Iceland, our products are also entirely manufactured at our headquarters in Iceland — where we oversee the entire production process ourselves to ensure the highest quality. Since our products are made in Iceland, Icelandic water also plays a crucial role as a key ingredient. Much of Iceland's water comes from glaciers and natural springs, filtered through volcanic rock, making it exceptionally clean. This natural purification process delivers clean water; unpolluted, unspoiled, and in no need for any chemical purification. Icelandic water is soft, meaning it has a low concentration of hard minerals such as calcium and magnesium – making it less likely to dry or irritate skin, and is therefore highly suitable for skincare production, making our products unique in quality.
