‘Clinical trials, under dermatological conditions,
have shown exceptional results: a 50 per cent reduction in RedNESS**’
The world of skincare can be confusing, so it’s important to focus on what you really want from your products. Surely, when it comes down to it, that means finding those that work with your skin, not against it?
That’s the key message from Orveda, a skincare brand that takes a long-term approach to your skin health, with formulas that avoid fad ingredients and harsh approaches that can cause inflammation, sensitivity and “over-processed” skin. Its mission is to “offer results and efficacy via formulas that partner with the skin and support what the skin already does, but better it”, says Orveda’s head of science, Ulrich Katusevanako.
All Orveda’s products are designed to strengthen and protect the skin barrier, the first line of defence. “If it’s damaged or weakened, it’s more vulnerable to aggressors from the environment and can allow things you want to keep in, such as hydration, to escape,” says Katusevanako.

These products harness science to offer benefit without irritation. Thanks to biotechnology, they deliver a high concentration of ingredients – lab-made actives that mimic their natural counterparts (sometimes with greater potency), but without using impurities that can irritate skin. They’re a more sustainable option, too.
The Omnipotent Serum, Orveda’s newest patent pending formula, harnesses this biotech to create the “most potent serum of all time”. It took years and more than 100 trials to develop the formula, whose active ingredients are selected for the past, present and future health of your skin.
The first of these ingredients is a potent antioxidant found in the climbing plant Schisandra sphenanthera. The second is Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a species of yeast that has a structure and metabolism similar to our skin cells. And the third is adenosine, one of the building blocks of RNA, which is essential for all life on Earth. All augmented by biotechnology processes to enhance their potency and ensure full biocompatibility with the skin.
This remarkable product pairs perfectly with the Cleansing Bamboo & Enzymatic Water, Vital Sap, Rich Brew Cream and Eye Unveiler. These treatments have already been praised by celebrities and the most discerning personalities for their remarkable effectiveness in achieving a glowing complexion.
A major part of this serum’s power is understanding senescent cells. Also known as zombie cells, they “send inflammatory signals to healthy cells, speeding up the ageing process”, says Katusevanako. They occur naturally and increase with age (their production can be accelerated by lifestyle factors such as UV exposure), but Orveda’s Omnipotent Serum works to delay and even undo this effect by focusing on the three axes of youth extension, with technology and ingredients that help rebuild damaged cells (the past), delay the formation of senescent cells (present) and create a better environment for healthy new cells (future).
With daily use, key signs of ageing – fine lines, dullness and pigmentation – will be visibly reduced. Clinical trials, under dermatological control, have shown exceptional results: a 25 per cent reduction in brown spots*, a 50 per cent decrease in redness**, a 25 per cent increase in radiance*, a 65 per cent improvement in hydration** – and consumer feedback was that skin was 96 per cent smoother over time. And that’s all while ensuring your skin health and longevity come first. If that’s not potent, we don’t know what is.

1) THE CLEANSER First, remove all make-up and impurities by cleaning your skin properly. This step is mandatory – if you don’t respect this crucial step, the skincare routine won’t be efficient.
2) THE EYE CONTOUR The skin around the eyes is the thinnest and most stressed. It is this area that often ages the fastest. It’s important to provide comfort and protection with the right products.
3) THE ESSENCE It prepares the skin by opening it up to receive the skincare products and allow them to penetrate deeply and quickly. It is a shot of hydration.
4) THE OMNIPOTENT CONCENTRATE SERUM Highly concentrated, this product boosts the longevity of the skin. Serums are lighter skin care formulations than moisturisers and are absorbed quickly into your skin.
5) THE MOISTURISER Moisturise, nourish, reinforce your skin barrier – protect your skin from daily environmental aggressions. It can also correct skin blemishes (shine, radiance, pimples, hyperpigmentation).
6) THE MASK Has to be applied for a specific or SOS treatment. Use once a week or as a cure depending on your skin’s requirements.
