The story of the brand from Budapest takes us way back in time to a period over 2,000 years ago, when the Romans discovered the healing powers of thermal waters. In the centuries that followed, over 1,000 medicinal baths sprung up within the area that is now Hungary. Some of them still exist today.

In the 18^th century, the Omorovicza family built the magnificent Racz Spa at the site of a medieval thermal source. Two hundred years later, Stephen de Heinrich de Omorovicza, a descendent of the founders, stepped up to head the venerable institution. With his American wife Margaret he developed an innovative new care series to enhance the thermal water treatments at the spa. Close collaboration with a Nobel Prize-winning Hungarian research institute produced a unique anti-aging skincare system that leaves nothing to be desired. It all centers on the patented Hydro-Mineral Transference complex, an ingenious development that enables the body to effectively access and absorb the minerals in the medicinal waters.

To create this the complex, the water undergoes a fermentation process, triggered by the addition of yeast. The result is a lysate from which the valuable minerals can be harvested. They are then incorporated into the liposomes used in OMOROVICZA skincare products. The minerals and trace elements support all metabolic processes of the skin. In short, the skin’s natural resources are optimally tapped– for refreshed youthfulness and all-around wellbeing.
