About FBL

Natural Beauty, Simple and Effective

The power of natural beauty
At FBL we believe that beauty starts with simplicity and purity. What you put on your skin should be as pure as what you put in your body. That’s why we develop products that contain only natural ingredients, designed to make your skin glow and recover in a natural way. No complicated 20-step skincare routines, but exactly what your skin needs – simple and effective.

Our mission
Our mission goes beyond skincare. At FBL, we want to contribute to a more beautiful world. Not only by offering products that enhance your natural beauty, but also by creating awareness around mental health. True beauty starts from within – with a healthy mind and self-acceptance.

With the concept “Beyond Beauty” we make an impact together. 15% of every sale goes to projects that change lives: from supporting communities and fighting poverty to creating opportunities for a better future. Want to know more about this? Then definitely take a look at our BeyondBeauty page.

How FBL started
FBL was born out of the passion and determination of founder Lara Beentjes. From a young age, Lara dreamed of starting her own business, but for a long time she didn't know in which direction. As a teenager, she struggled to find an effective skincare routine. The vast range of products made it confusing and frustrating to determine what was really good.

After much testing and research, Lara decided she wanted to create her own line of natural products that she could stand behind 100%. At 17, she wrote her first business plan, then called “Favourites by Lara”, with the idea of selling only her personal favourites.

During her studies in Pedagogy, Lara decided to make her dream come true . At the age of 19, Lara designed a logo with the abbreviation FBL. She found the original name too childish, but the logo and the essence of the concept were retained. After two years of developing and perfecting, she launched her first product on her 21st birthday: the RESCUE CREME – a product she is proud of and fully supports.

Our vision for the future
FBL is just getting started. Besides natural skincare and cosmetics, Lara has many passions and dreams that she wants to realize with her company. For now, the focus is on developing natural cosmetics and growing FBL. But the vision reaches further – to inspire people to embrace themselves and make the world a little more beautiful, inside and out.
