About Nø Cosmetics

We're revolutionizing drugstores – piece by piece.

We are a conscious beauty brand, motivated by a passion for innovative skincare concepts and inspired by scientific insights and the wishes of our community.

Mission

Conscious beauty for everyone

It is often claimed that high-quality skincare is unaffordable and affordable skincare does nothing.

With Nø Cosmetics, we have succeeded in bringing vegan skincare to drugstores that shows actual effects with mild formulations, flatters your skin with pampering textures, and is affordable for everyone despite high-quality active ingredients.

To achieve this, we rely on scientific findings, collaborate with visionaries, and respond to the wishes of our community.

Community

Skincare based on your needs

Factors like stress, skin blemishes, and social pressure can make you feel uncomfortable in your own skin. We want to prevent that from happening. That's why we consciously forgo unrealistic beauty standards.

Instead, we engage with our community and use their input for the development and continuous improvement of Nø products. This results in skincare that meets your needs and doesn't cost much time or money.

Products

High Quality. Without compromise.

Our Gold Oil and a clear vision laid the foundation for the Nø range: self-confidence through healthy skin, and healthy skin through high-quality cosmetics at drugstore prices.

Today, we are revolutionizing the drugstore market and developing products that can be seen as a response to the needs of our community – intuitive to use, reliable in effect, and easy to integrate into everyday life.

Curiosity, ambition, and bold decisions have made it possible for you to find Nø products not only in our online shop and our own store but also at BIPA, Budni, dm, Migros, Purish, and Rossmann.

Our Routines

Ingredients

Science-backed beauty

Skin irritations cannot always be magically removed, and skin types are difficult to change. But with high-quality ingredients, well-tolerated formulations, and effective active ingredients, we can ensure that your skin condition improves.

To meet your need for clear, regenerated, and protected skin, we pursue an innovative approach, rely on science, and utilize current study results. We also avoid mineral oils, silicones, parabens, PEGs, and ingredients of animal origin.

Our respect for the environment and passion for innovation are also reflected in our production.

Manufacturing

Skincare made in Germany

We only release products that we would use ourselves. This commitment to sustainability, effectiveness, and tolerability motivates us and at the same time entails responsibility.

Together with our friend and business partner Robert Beinio, we develop and produce vegan skincare, from concept to delivery, under fair working conditions and with environmental awareness in Germany. Since the beginning.

Caroline Kroll

Family Business since 2017

When I had the idea for my own skincare brand in 2017, I was still a student looking for innovative and affordable skincare that matched my values and needs. The products had to be gentle on the skin, reliable in their effect, and sustainable in their approach.

My fruitless search was the impetus for Nø Cosmetics. And my father was the one who co-founded it with me. With 25 years of experience in the beauty industry, he paved the way for us to launch what I was missing: Effective skincare that is skin-friendly and environmentally friendly.

Podcast Interview Press inquiries

Nø is good for the skin and good for the environment

We do not want to adversely affect the planet's water cycle with either our product or our packaging.

We are guided by the principles of ocean safety, upcycling, and recycling. For example, in our skincare products, we sometimes use raw materials that would otherwise be discarded, even though they have high efficacy and good tolerability.

Nø is modern and timeless

We want to make a real difference, without differentiating.

That's why we resist a world that wants to force us to think in boxes. We offer you skincare that caters to every skin type, suits every age, and includes every gender.

Nø is High-Quality and Affordable

We use ingredients of natural origin that are safe and replace harsh or allergenic substances with synthetic, compatible, and non-comedogenic ingredients.

The efficacy and tolerability of our formulations are our top priority. For this, we rely on science and current studies. This way, you can expect actual results without unnecessarily irritating your skin.

Nø is innovative and sustainable

We love packaging that is practical and sustainable. So we've optimized our packaging to come from recycling processes and/or be easy to recycle.

To enable economical and hygienic application, we fill our skincare into either aluminum tubes, tubes with PCR content, or glass bottles that you can easily dispose of in the glass recycling bin.

Fun Fact

No – No – No

Have you also wondered why we pronounce ourselves No, even though the phonetic form of Nø is more similar to the Rhineland Nö?

With the name Nø, we define our values and thus what we stand for as a brand: No Gender and No Social Pressure. However, since umlauts like ø are rarely used worldwide and we want our message to be on everyone's lips, we decided on the international form of Nö.
