THE LOWDOWN
Picture a quaint Danish town with cobbled streets, rustic houses and traditional shops — and you have the birthplace of Ole Henriksen (pronounced ‘ooh-la hen-rick-sen’). The future founder’s love of skin care began during the bitterly cold winters of his childhood, during which his mother, a pharmacist, lovingly applied nourishing creams to protect his skin from the severe temperatures. Little did he know this would later spark the inspiration for a worldwide skin care brand…
Although Ole always loved skin care, it wasn’t until he developed cystic acne at 19 that he truly discovered his passion. To treat his acne, Ole turned to an aesthetician friend who’d been trained in Japanese skin care. She began treating his skin using active botanical treatments with a focus on replenishment and exfoliation, which completely transformed the future entrepreneur’s skin. Paying homage to these skin care remedies, OLE HENRIKSEN, the brand, was born.
