FOREO is a Swedish multi-national beauty brand established and headquartered Stockholm, Sweden. Founded in 2013, the company produces facial cleansing brushes, sonic electric toothbrushes, cleansers, and eye massagers for the consumer and professional markets.

History

FOREO began in 2013,[1] and in three years secured a presence in department stores, perfumery chains and beauty e-commerce operators across the globe such as Douglas, Sephora, Harvey Nichols, Neiman Marcus, Barneys, Bergdorf Goodman, Net-a-Porter, Selfridges, Globus and Jelmoli, with a total of over 6.000 placements in more than 50 countries. In 2013, FOREO launched[2] the Luna™, a facial cleansing brush. The Luna™ eschewed abrasive nylon bristles in favor of silicone that could potentially avoid excessive exfoliation.

Paul Peros started his professional career in Water & Environmental Technologies as a Watergy Business Manager after a BA in physics from UCLA and MBA from IMD Business School. From there he joined GEA Management Consulting where he managed projects around the globe for 12 years.

FOREO opened FOREO Inc. in 2013 and FOREO Adria in 2014. FOREO opened a flagship store in Paris in 2016.

Products

FOREO's most popular and recognizable product series remains the LUNA, launched in 2013.[3] The product range also includes the IRIS eye massager, the ISSA electric toothbrush launched in 2014,[4] the ESPADA blue light acne treatment in 2017 and FOREO Day and Night face cleansers.[5]
