Here’s a secret: Your skin already has the potential to look fabulous. The trick is to “activate” its ability to achieve natural radiance – that’s where ORBIS’ brightening range comes in. 

My Reading Room

Every woman wants a youthful-looking, radiant complexion. According to Japanese beauty brand ORBIS, six enzymes are responsible for the skin’s clarity, texture, smoothness, firmness and hydration, as well as maintaining its barrier function. 

To give you that lit-from-within glow, these enzymes need an environment rich in moisture but free of oil to function best. That’s why all ORBIS skincare products boast 100 per cent oil-free formulas, to encourage enzyme activity. 

Brighten Up
The brand’s latest ORBIS = U White range has brightening and anti-ageing functions. It consists of four oil-free products – a facial wash, a lotion, and day and night moisturisers. All contain W.H. Amino Shield, an ingredient designed to be “protective armour” for the skin’s enzymes, shielding them against UV damage and dryness. 

The products also feature brightening agents arbutin and saffl  ower extract. These help inhibit the build-up of melanin within skin which results in a dull and “aged” appearance. 

Introducing the Range
The ORBIS = U White Jelly Wash ($33) is a jelly-textured cleanser which helps soften keratin (found on the skin’s outer layer), thereby allowing your lotion to penetrate better.   

The ORBIS = U White Lotion ($52) has a Quick Delivery formula designed to provide instant hydration and radiance.

The ORBIS = U White Day Moisture ($52) is a day cream fortified with SPF30/PA+++ and the brand’s Moist Lasting Veil technology to give prolonged hydration.

Finally, the ORBIS = U White Night Moisture ($56) is an intensely moisturising night cream. It also boasts EG Catalyzer technology which repairs damage caused by UV rays and dryness. 

The ORBIS = U White range is available at all ORBIS stores and counters. Samples are also available.
