Omorovicza was founded in 2006 by a Budapest couple Stephen and Margaret de Heinrich de Omorovicza, who discovered the benefits of Hungary's mineral-rich waters, which have been used in the treatment of all kinds of ailments. The duo turned to a dermatology lab to look into the healing properties of the waters. The unique waters are the foundation of the brand's cutting-edge skincare range.

Who are the founders?

Stephen was born in Switzerland and a descendant of a noble Hungarian family. He went to Budapest to explore his Hungarian roots and ended up meeting Margaret, an American. They now live in Budapest.

The founders pioneered a concept called mineral cosmetology, which combines thermal hydrotherapy and scientific inquiry into the bioavailability of minerals. The concept also features a delivery system called the pannon complex, which enables minerals, trace elements, proteins and vitamins to break down into mineral-protein compounds in the process of biofermentation, making it easier for the skin to absorb the components and stimulating the performance of the skin's natural functions.
