Irish skincare Hibernicis enters Hong Kong

Irish wellness product brand Hibernicis launches a range of skincare designed to support and replenish the body and mind’s well-being

Hibernicis (pronounced: hiˈber.ni.kis) 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.  

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.

“I have always been particularly passionate about natural skincare and body care,” says founder, Catherine Logue. “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 to mature skin. 

Seaweed extracts are a constant throughout all the products. This wondrous marine plant is known to be detoxifying and packed with vitamins K, B, A, and E, which help improve skin tone, texture and elasticity. Filled with humectants, seaweed delivers antioxidants to fight free radical damage and is known to hydrate, heal and repair skin. 

The brand is committed to continuing its search for the latest scientific solutions with the safest and most effective ingredients, predominantly using natural and naturally derived ingredients. All Hibernicis products contain 95 per cent or more natural or naturally derived ingredients.
