5 x Vaicute: Apila (30 ml) + Kehäkukka (30 ml) + Mustaherukka (30 ml) + Kuusenkerkkä (20 ml) + Tyrni (50 g)

Vaicute Natural Cosmetics is a Finnish natural product line. The products are manufactured by Marion Finland Oy, a company owned by three women in Kainuu.

Vaicute Natural Cosmetics began when occupational health physician Raisa Mäkäräinen noticed her patients' increased interest in natural products. Her personal experiences with menopause gave her the idea for a moisturizing cream for the mucous membranes of the pubic area, and Raisa decided to study to become a natural product processor. This is how the first VAICUTE cream, or Moisturizing Cream for the Mucous Membranes of the Pubic Area, was born. The Vaicute product online store was opened in spring 2021, and the product family grew with body and face creams and body oil.

Unfortunately, Raisa passed away unexpectedly in May 2023. The loss was also great for the Vaicute product family. In the fall of 2023, we decided to continue the work Raisa started with natural cosmetics with the help of three women. We founded Marion Finland Oy, which will continue the manufacturing and sales of Vaicute products. The operations are still in Kainuu, but in Sotkamo instead of Kajaani.

All three of us entrepreneurs have a long background in plant research in academia. Our expertise in the field, our control of quality and equipment related to laboratory work, and our domestic and international networks in the field give us a solid foundation for continuing and developing our business.

Like Raisa, we want to invest in the best domestic plant ingredients, utilize scientific research in product development and effectiveness evaluation, and share research information in an easily understandable format with our customers.

Our products contain moisturizing and protective ingredients, all of which are approved for natural cosmetics and most of which are also vegan. The main ingredients are Finnish plants such as red clover, blackcurrant and calendula, as well as high-quality cell-protecting oils such as sea buckthorn, olive and wheat germ oils, and vitamin E to protect against oxidation.

In product design and development, raw materials are selected primarily based on their mechanisms of action. In addition to actual product development, we conduct research on our creams because we want to offer our product users the most useful and safe user experiences possible. Research is conducted both through test groups and university collaboration.

We also want to create jobs and prosperity in Finland, and our product has the most valuable symbol of Finnish work: the Key Flag.

We hope you find our products very helpful. If you wish, you can send us feedback or questions by email at info@vaicute.fi.

Warmest regards,

Mari Jaakkola, Marianne Mäki and Kirsi Kuvaja
