About This Place
White willow, blue tansy, zinc, cinnamon bark, arnica, and cannabidiol are just some of the powerful ingredients used by Berlin-based brand This Place, which launched in October 2020. The functional natural cosmetics brand stands for a new type of natural wellness and beauty products that focus on holistic well-being. This Place is more than just natural cosmetics: high-quality, natural ingredients are combined with the latest medical findings. Each product combines different, purely natural ingredients in such a way that they work synergistically and unfold their full power together. Each product is designed for a specific area of application, for example to provide relief from discomfort during menstruation, promote restful sleep, support facial care and inflamed skin, or relax muscles. Coordinated rituals also promote mindfulness. This Place aims to help improve health in the long term and raise awareness of a healthy lifestyle and self-care.

Founder & CEO of This Place
“We want to inspire people to establish self-care not just as a ritual, but as a holistic way of life. This Place aims to support them in improving their health in the long term and raising awareness of a healthy lifestyle.”
Laura Simonow
Founder & CEO of This Place
"This Place is based on three factors:
1) Our approach is to combine high-quality, natural ingredients with the latest medical findings and create synergies between the individual ingredients. The special formula plays an important role: in each product, such as our creams and oils, different natural ingredients are combined in such a way that they can unleash their full power together. We spent over a year researching in the lab and searching for the right composition.
2) In addition, each product is designed to create an olfactory moment, because we firmly believe in the power of the sense of smell.
3) Our products are not just cosmetics, but are also designed to provide support for everyday problems. Each product is therefore designed for a specific area of application."
