Scandinavian skincare innovation
MANTLE creates skincare that combats inflammation, strengthens the skin barrier, and increases skin health and longevity. With a philosophy rooted in Scandinavian minimalism, MANTLE offers a curated collection of clean and clinical skincare solutions, developed in our Swedish laboratory. At MANTLE, we don’t just create products – we challenge the skincare industry by cultivating an empowering narrative that celebrates individual expression and experience. Join us as we redefine skincare, one innovative formula at a time.
The acid mantle
The name MANTLE is a reference to the skin’s acid mantle. The acid mantle is the topmost layer of the skin barrier – a slightly acidic, fine film that acts as the first defence against microbes and bacteria. Since the beginning, strengthening the skin barrier and supporting the acid mantle has been at the forefront of all our formulations. By combining gentle yet effective actives with nourishing, barrier-strengthening botanicals, MANTLE’s products are suitable for all skin types and deliver results without disrupting the acid mantle.
Formulation philosophy
MANTLE’s award-winning formulas have rapidly reached cult status among skincare enthusiasts and editors. Developed in their Swedish laboratory, MANTLE’s formulas incorporate a wide variety of innovative, biomimetic ingredients. The forward-thinking ingredient combinations and delivery methods allow the products to penetrate all layers of the skin, strengthen the barrier, and deliver maximal results with minimal irritation. With versatile, multi-functional formulas, each product is easy to use, mix, match and adapt – making it simple to find a routine that transforms your skin.
Our story
Josefin Landgård, a tech trailblazer and unicorn founder, became known for bringing innovation to disruptive start-ups spanning diverse industries. Driven by a lifelong passion for skincare and yearning for a new challenge, she met branding expert and co-founder Stina Lönnkvist. United by a desire to bring Scandinavian skincare innovation to the world, and a mutual frustration about the beauty industry’s narrow and judgemental ideals – they founded MANTLE.
