Omorovicza is a luxury brand that is beyond all luxury. The creams smell as if they are derived from the freshest flower gardens; they fold into the skin like the finest silk.
Omorovicza Budapest is the full title of the brand. Omorovicza is the name of the company’s founders whose family built the beautiful Racz spa in the Hungarian capital of Budapest 200 years ago, on the site of a medieval healing spring.
Now they have come out with the Omorovicza Blue Diamond collection. They use gold in another range. Everything is about richness but these products deliver.
The Blue Diamond Concentrate (£295.00) is a spectacular serum. It instantly makes the skin luminous, lifted, taut. It does something that accelerates the transfer of oxygen from cell to cell. You only need a few drops for a noticeably radiant effect.
Then you apply the Blue Diamond Super Cream (£275.00), which is indeed super. It is instantly hydrating and makes the skin firm and glowy. The Super Cream prolongs the life of skin cells, repairs the DNA chain and increases the production of collagen and elastin. It is buttery and super potent and has an instant dramatic effect.
The final product in the Blue Diamond range is the Resurfacing Peel (£145.00). I thought peels had to itch or burn but not this one. This opalescent peel is simultaneously brightening and firming. Lacto bionic and lactic acids work together to refine the complexion and encourage cell renewal. Enzymes brighten the tone and purify the skin. It is a beautiful cleansing and exfoliating treatment that provides that instant perk-up factor.
If you start the day feeling tired your skin won`t look tired after the Blue Diamond Peel and Cream. It is like having your own mini facial but a facial that is steeped in luxury and state of the art skin technology.
The other day someone commented that people who used botox look older than they are. Our eyes send information to the brain. `This woman`s eyebrows didn’t move, she is botoxed, expressionless, which equals old. There is something about the botoxed face that is very 90s. It is old and old hat.
I suppose in the 90s they did not have Omorovicza, and they did not have the Blue Diamond Super Cream. It is age reversal in a pot. The cream of youth that people have searched for for decades. The Blue Diamond range takes decades away and beyond that it gives an unbelievable subtlety to the skin. It is frighteningly expensive at £275 a pot, but absolutely worth it.
