Our Story

Woods Copenhagen was founded after our Founder's daughters was diagnosed with atopic eczema. What began as a personal mission became a danish skincare brand.

The start of woods_

Nature rarely rushes. It adapts, restores, and finds its way back to balance. The same is true of our skin.

Created in Denmark, woods_ brings together nature’s ability to protect, repair, and adapt with the precision of modern science. The aim is not to pursue perfect skin, but to help the skin remain resilient, balanced, and comfortable over time.

woods_ began in 2014 with something deeply personal. When founder Martin Lyne’s twin daughters struggled with atopic eczema, he began searching for a gentler and more considered way to care for their skin.

What started as a father’s concern soon became a larger exploration. Not of how to correct or control the skin, but of how to better understand it.

What does the skin truly need? What allows it to remain balanced? And how can skincare support its natural functions without overwhelming them?

Martin began studying ingredients, formulations, and different approaches to skin health. The project brought him into close collaboration with Scandinavian experts and dermatologists, combining scientific knowledge with a deep respect for the intelligence already present in nature and in the skin itself.
