Neutrogena Handcreme Konzentriert

Neutrogena's 'Norwegian Formula' hand cream is one of the most recognized skincare products globally. Its origin dates back to 1972, inspired by the traditional, glycerin-rich recipes used by Norwegian fishermen to protect their skin from the harsh Arctic environment. Despite the name and the inclusion of the Norwegian flag on the packaging, the brand itself was founded in the United States in 1930 as 'Natone' by Emanuel Stolaroff.

The featured product is a limited edition collaboration with German actress and singer Yvonne Catterfeld, specifically marketed in German-speaking regions (DACH). Neutrogena's manufacturing is decentralized, with production facilities in Various European countries and North America, typically labeled 'Made in the EU' or specifying countries like France or Greece depending on the specific batch.

From an ownership perspective, Neutrogena was an independent company until its acquisition by Johnson & Johnson in 1994. In 2023, J&J spun off its consumer health division into a separate company called Kenvue. Looking toward 2026, a significant shift is underway as Kenvue has reached a definitive agreement to be acquired by Kimberly-Clark in a multi-billion dollar deal. Once the transaction closes in the second half of 2026, Kimberly-Clark will become the ultimate owner of the brand.
