Super Glandin

Super Glandin is a Swedish skincare brand based in Stockholm, focused on targeted anti-ageing and anti-pigment products for women in midlife. Its range centres on a small set of face creams, serums and an eye treatment sold through Swedish pharmacy and beauty chains. The company describes itself as a brand with more than three decades of skincare experience, though it publishes no exact founding year.

The brand is active. Its products are currently stocked across major Swedish retailers, including Apotek Hjärtat, Apotea, Kicks, Åhléns and several pharmacy chains, and it operates a live e-commerce site [1]. There is no evidence of activity outside Sweden.

According to Super Glandin, the brand began with its Anti Pigment Creme and later expanded into a wider set of products aimed at specific skincare needs [1]. It presents itself under the tagline "Estetisk hudvård för kvinnan mitt i livet" (aesthetic skincare for the woman in midlife) and, on its logo, "Skincare with a mission."

The company frames its approach as combining plant-derived ingredients with skincare research, and says it favours high concentrations of active ingredients that remain safe to use. Its stated mission is to make skincare products that "genuinely make a difference." The line is positioned toward an audience of women aged roughly 40 and over.

The brand site names Scandinavian Health & Beauty AB as the company behind Super Glandin, at an address on Katarinavägen in Stockholm [7]. The operating entity is not entirely clear from published sources. While the site displays Scandinavian Health & Beauty AB, the contact form's underlying email points to info@baltex.se, and third-party listings name Baltex Health and Beauty AB at the identical Stockholm address [7]. The two are likely the same or affiliated companies, possibly reflecting a rename or a sister entity; no organisation number is published on the pages available.

Super Glandin's catalogue is compact, built around four core products. The Anti Pigment Creme, described by the company as the brand's founding product, is presented as a triple-acting cream that lightens pigment spots, helps prevent new ones and evens skin tone [3]. Its active ingredients include alpha-arbutin, magnesium ascorbyl phosphate (a form of vitamin C) and Rumex occidentalis extract, all associated with skin brightening.

The rest of the range addresses ageing skin. The Retinol Age Delay Creme is built around retinol at 0.05% and niacinamide at 3% [4]. The Anti Age Firming Serum combines niacinamide with hydrolysed hyaluronic acid and a peptide (Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5) [5]. The Eye Lifting Formula, aimed at the eye area, draws on argan oil, Albizia julibrissin bark extract and darutoside [6]. Across the line, the company states its products are vegan and made in Sweden, with several described as fragrance-free.

For its eye and firming products, the company cites a study of 24 women with an average age of 60 who applied the product twice daily over two months. It reports that 91% experienced a firming effect, 61% a measurable lift, and 49% a smoother appearance around the eyes. The same figures appear on more than one product page, suggesting the eye-area study is referenced across the range.

Independent sources record a discrepancy in one product's formula. The ingredient database InciDecoder lists a version of the Anti Pigment Creme containing chemical sunscreens (ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate and benzophenone-3, giving SPF 15) along with peanut oil, and a Daisy Beauty review likewise notes SPF 15 [8][9]. The current brand-site ingredient list for the same product omits sunscreens [3]. The two formulations most likely reflect a reformulation over time rather than a single "true" recipe.

Coverage of Super Glandin comes chiefly from Swedish beauty-review sites. Daisy Beauty rated the Anti Pigment Creme 4 out of 5, reporting that it lightened larger pigment spots after a month of daily use, while the reviewer said it did not fulfil its anti-wrinkle claim [8]. The Beauty Room placed the same cream second in its "Most Gentle" category in an anti-pigment best-in-test comparison [10]. No awards or major national press coverage are recorded in the available sources.

Super Glandin remains an active, single-market brand. Its products are currently sold across a broad set of Swedish pharmacy and beauty retailers, and its website and product pages are live [1]. The available sources point to a small Swedish operation focused on the domestic market rather than international expansion.
