Intrigued? Us too – which is why we sat down with Royal Fern’s founder, Dr Timm Golüke’s, to uncover everything we need to know about the brand’s history, signature Royal Fern Complex, bestsellers and so much more… 

THE MAKING OF ROYAL FERN 

The story of Royal Fern began with Dr Timm Golüke’s dermatologist expertise. “After years of treating patients and understanding their skin concerns, I noticed a gap in the market for a skin care range that not only delivers real, scientifically backed results but also draws inspiration from nature. I’ve always been fascinated by the power of plants, especially the fern, which has incredible regenerative and protective properties. The fern has existed for over 400 million years, thriving even in the harshest environments. This resilience sparked the idea of creating a skin care range that harnesses those qualities to protect and regenerate skin. After years of research, we developed our signature complex, which became the foundation of Royal Fern” reflects Dr Timm Golüke.  

WHAT IS THE MEANING BEIND THE NAME ‘ROYAL FERN’ 

After inspiring its signature complex, naming the brand after the royal fern plant (also referred to as Osmunda regalis) was a no brainer. “The royal fern is known for its resilience, healing properties, and ability to thrive in various environments. It has been traditionally valued for its anti-inflammatory and regenerative effects too, making it a fitting inspiration for a skin care line focused on enhancing skin health and vitality.” 

WHAT IS ROYAL FERN’S MAIN PHILOSOPHY 

Understanding the importance of fusing nature’s most potent ingredients with advanced dermatological science, Royal Fern basis its solutions on achieving lasting results by protecting and strengthening the skin’s natural functions. “We focus on holistic skin health, which means that every product we create is not only about beauty but about enhancing the skin’s overall wellbeing. The balance between nature and science is at the heart of everything we do.” 

WHAT IS THE ROYAL FERN COMPLEX  

One of the key aspects that sets Royal Fern apart is its commitment to combining cutting-edge dermatological research with the properties of the fern. Cue: The Royal Fern Complex.  

“Our primary USP is the Royal Fern Complex, a patented blend of natural ingredients including fern extract, which provides long-term protection and anti-ageing benefits. We’ve created a range of products that are multitasking, addressing several skin concerns at once – from dry and combination to sensitive and mature skin  .” 

But why fern? “Fern extract is an incredible ingredient with numerous benefits for the skin. It is highly protective, acting as a natural barrier against harmful environmental stressors such as pollution and UV damage. Additionally, it has potent anti-inflammatory properties, making it excellent for soothing irritated skin. Fern extract also supports skin regeneration and enhances collagen production, which helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time. The fern’s natural resilience and regenerative capabilities are why it’s such a vital part of Royal Fern’s formulations.” 

DR TIMM GOLÜKE’S TOP THREE SKIN CARE TIP 

Now we’re experts in all things Royal Fern, it’s to reveal Dr Timm Golüke’s secrets to achieving naturally glowing skin… 

1. Consistency is key: skin care isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about creating a routine that you can follow regularly to see long-term benefits. 
2. Invest in products from daily environmental stressors: good antioxidant serums and SPFs are key as prevention is always easier than reversing damage. 
3. Less is more: you don’t need to overwhelm your skin with too many products. It’s more important to choose a few high-quality, effective products rather than using everything at once.
