The founders of TARAMAR, Dr. Guðrún Marteinsdóttir and Dr. Kristberg Kristbergsson come from the diverse science fields of Marine Biology and Food Science Engineering.
In the fascinating world of science, the fusion of food science and marine biology has given rise to a revolutionary skincare brand known as TARAMAR. Unlike traditional skincare products, that rely heavily on pharmaceutical technology, TARAMAR draws inspiration from the nourishing properties found in food.
Using science, we have accumulated knowledge on the functional properties of bioactive compounds from seaweed and medicinal plants.
Using science, we have isolated unique compounds and designed a highly skin-active ArcticComplex® that has beneficial properties for skin and body. We use these compounds to replace all of the toxic and harmful chemicals that are currently found in most mainstream products.
Using science, we have designed safe and natural methods that preserve these functional properties through production and storage (patented NoTox® Technology).
Using science, we have demonstrated how we can use delivery systems to protect our fragile skinactives and promote their activity resulting in visually beneficial changes to the skin (see our publication list).
