Jul 29, 2024
At the heart of our brand is a story of personal resilience, innovation, and a deep commitment to transforming the recovery experience. In this blog, we introduce you to our founder, Courtney Vandenberg, whose journey and expertise have shaped Restormé into the trusted brand it is today.

A Journey of Healing and Innovation

Courtney Vandenberg, the visionary behind Restormé, brings over five years of dedicated experience in the skincare industry. She has led numerous successful campaigns, focusing on brand development, strategic storytelling, and customer engagement. Courtney's passion for skincare is deeply rooted in her personal experiences and professional journey.

The Spark of Restormé

The inception of Restormé was born out of Courtney's own struggles with post-surgery recovery. After undergoing a significant surgical procedure, she found herself in search of effective skincare solutions that addressed both the physical and emotional aspects of healing. Frustrated by the lack of comprehensive products in the market, Courtney envisioned a brand that could provide not only exceptional skincare but also emotional support and a sense of community.

Transforming the Skincare Space

Courtney's vision for Restormé extends far beyond traditional skincare. She aims to revolutionize the industry by creating products that serve the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. Through innovative formulations and a deep understanding of the skin-mind connection, Restormé products are designed to provide comprehensive care that goes beyond the surface.

Key Initiatives Led by Courtney:
  • Holistic Healing Approach: Emphasizing the importance of addressing both physical and emotional aspects of recovery. Courtney has championed the integration of psychodermatology principles into product development, ensuring that Restormé's offerings support mental well-being as much as they do skin health.
  • Community Building: Recognizing the power of community in the healing process, Courtney has fostered a supportive network where individuals can share their stories, find inspiration, and connect with others on similar journeys.
  • Ethical and Sustainable Practices: Committed to creating products that are vegan, cruelty-free, fragrance-free, sulfate-free, and hypoallergenic, Courtney ensures that Restormé’s practices are as kind to the planet as they are to your skin.
  • Innovation and Research: By staying at the forefront of skincare research and development, Courtney continuously seeks out the latest advancements in skin science to incorporate into Restormé’s product line, ensuring that users benefit from the most effective and safe formulations.

The Philosophy of Restormé

Restormé is built on the belief that recovery is more than just a physical process; it’s an emotional and mental journey as well. This philosophy is reflected in our product formulations, which are designed to nurture the skin and soothe the mind. Our commitment to ethical and sustainable practices ensures that our products are not only effective but also safe and environmentally friendly.

Transforming the Recovery Experience

Our goal is to provide solutions that not only aid in physical healing but also promote self-care, confidence, and a positive mindset.
