Founder Bio:
Karmen Novak, art lover, science enthusiast, skincare formulator and founder of Flower & Spice. After more than 15 years of working in fashion, video production and marketing, Karmen (a Slovenian) moved to The Netherlands, where she had a chance to start a new path. Feeling depleted: mentally, from working with brands she no longer believed in; physically, from a hectic schedule that demanded still more of her time, and spiritually, from being disconnected from her own health and life balance, Karmen craved the opportunity to nurture her love of nature.
After studying organic skincare science at UK-based Formula Botanica—Organic Cosmetic Science School—she fell deeply in love with natural skincare and its overwhelming benefits. She saw first-hand the soft, glowing, calm skin that was a result of using only natural and organic ingredients. This passion led her to start experimenting with different botanicals to develop truly natural products that not only transport the senses through scent and texture but powerfully nourish and care for the skin.
The Artisanal Process
- The Ingredients:
FLOWERS – Petals, Pistil and Pollen of the Flower
- Luxurious integration of essential and emotive aromas
- Nourishing for the skin and mood
- Light, fresh and romantic
SPICES – Power from the Core – Roots and Seeds of the Plant
- Vital to the creation of potent and effective products
- Nourishing for the body and the skin
- Intoxicating and unique
Spices have a unique role because the seeds and roots are many times more powerful and more potent than the leaves. They are the plants’ core. Spices are full of antioxidants that prevent premature skin damage and provide anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. They are also rich in amino and fatty acids. In addition, the essential oils of spices provide a very intense sensorial experience!
