If you’ve never visited and experienced the beauty of Connemara, one, you’ve missed out and two, you need to asap. Now a skincare range designed to support and replenish the body and mind’s wellbeing is Hibernicis, (Pronounced HI BER NI KIS).
Hibernicis is inspired by the wild and untouched Connemara on the west coast of Ireland and uses natural resources, including seaweed, from the surrounding Atlantic coasts.
The Irish have utilised and benefitted from using such ingredients as seaweed to enhance health and well-being and such notions as seaweed baths are common place along the Wild Atlantic way of Connemara.
To celebrate Ireland’s cultural and linguistic heritage, Hibernicis (Latin: from Ireland) is also presented in ancient Ogham script and each product bears a Gaelic name.
Founder of the brand, Catherine Logue has more than 30 years’ global experience in the beauty industry. She brings years of gathered knowledge, product design and creativity to the birth of Hibernicis. Catherine started her cosmetics journey in Sydney, Australia and now splits her time between, Ireland, Australia and Hong Kong.
“I have always been particularly passionate about natural skincare and bodycare” says, Catherine.
“For me Ireland is an incredibly beautiful land with a fascinating and complex history and so I started the journey of developing a range which reflects how I feel about Ireland.”
Top of mind in the development of Hibernicis is product efficacy, sublime texture, pleasing skin-feel and in some instances unique application technique. At the heart, natural aromas are key and are individually blended for each product.
At the very base Hibernicis is driven by its search for the most efficacious, natural and naturally derived ingredients. The products are gentle, natural and good for all skin tones, types and gender. Particular attention is given to adding comfort for mature skin.
Seaweed extracts are a constant through all the products. This wonderous marine plant is known to be detoxifying, packed with vitamins K, B, A, and E, that help improve skin tone, texture and elasticity. Packed full of humectants, seaweed delivers antioxidants to fight free radical damage and is known to hydrate, heal and repair skin.
Hibernicis is committed to continue searching for the latest scientific solutions with the safest and most effective ingredients, predominately using natural and naturally derived ingredients. All Hibernicis products contain 95% or more natural or naturally derived ingredients.
