This is skincare science rooted in Finnish forest biodiversity. The Re-Connecting Nature extract, developed at the University of Helsinki, is the world's first patented ingredient from Finnish nature clinically proven to restore the skin's natural microbial balance. Nordic research shows that exposure to natural microbial diversity supports immune function and skin barrier health. This balm brings those benefits to your skin without going into the forest.
Clinical Research: Re-Connecting Nature Extract
In a large randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 142 participants with atopic dermatitis, the Re-Connecting Nature forest microbe extract:
Strengthened the skin barrier Reduced skin irritation and symptoms Reduced the need for atopic dermatitis medication Showed particular benefit during harsh Northern seasons
This is the first time that adding natural microbial diversity through a topical product has been shown to positively affect atopic dermatitis in a large clinical trial.
What Our Customers Say
"My toddler's skin has remained soft for a long time after bathing, even though we used to apply basic creams generously due to his dry skin. It also worked quickly on severe and painful diaper rash caused by diapers and cold, dry air. My son didn't cry when the balm was applied to the sensitive area." — Heidi-Sofia L.
"The Forest Microbe Balm has been a true lifesaver for my hand eczema after just a few uses. I wash and disinfect my hands frequently at work and wear rubber gloves, leaving my hands in terrible condition. This balm has significantly reduced dryness, cracks, pompholyx symptoms, and redness." — Linda K.
"A great product for dry and itchy skin." — Pirkko Y.
"My toddler's red and irritated skin around the mouth healed in just one day with Saaren Taika Forest Microbe Balm!"

The Re-Connecting Nature Philosophy
In urban environments with high hygiene standards, reduced exposure to natural microbes can negatively impact immune function and skin health. Regular use of forest microbe extract reintroduces nature's rich microbial diversity to the skin, helping restore its natural balance.
Finland's pristine forests and clean soil provide an exceptional microbial ecosystem with uniquely low levels of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, thanks to long cold winters and strict environmental standards.
For optimal results, use daily on the whole body. If using cortisone treatments, apply forest microbe products after finishing your cortisone course once the skin has healed.
