POLAAR: Arctic Beauty Cult Favourites
POLAAR is a French, family brand, steeped in exploration of the benefits of the hidden flora and fauna of the world’s most remote and impenetrable regions – the Arctic.
Founder Daniel Kurbiel is from a family of explorers and as a young boy discovered the potency and properties of the hardy 1,700 or so plants that grow in these northernmost regions, including 400 that continue to flower despite the very harsh ecosystem - wild Arctic cotton fields, polar berries and the delicate flower of Nunatak, whose petals have exceptional regenerating and anti-ageing properties, boreal algae and exceptionally moisturising, restorative and regenerative glacier water. In 2004, Daniel took that generational knowledge and, working with labs and researchers, created the ethically sourced POLAAR collections. It was an immediate success – cult favourite collections include POLAR NIGHT, ICY MAGIC, and NORTHERN LIGHT.
