“Relaxing at the Racz Bath and other ancient, thermal baths, the couple were amazed by the effect of the mineral rich healing waters’
The story behind Omorovicza
In the 1800s the Omorovicza family built the Rácz Bath in Budapest, on the site of a medieval healing spring renowned for its curative properties. 200 years later, founders Margaret and Stephen de Heinrich de Omorovicza met in the beautiful city of Budapest. Stephen had been drawn there to explore his roots. Margaret, an American, had been brought to the city by a diplomatic posting. Relaxing at the Rácz Bath and other ancient thermal baths, the couple were amazed by the effect the mineral rich healing waters had on their skin and saw their potential to be harnessed in a skincare range. They embarked on a journey to replicate in skincare the effects of the baths on their skin.
The main point of difference lies in the waters Omorovicza uses. All skincare, except oils is made of a large amount of water. Traditionally that water is de-mineralised and inert. At Omorovicza the water is itself a key active ingredient. They all come from Budapest, Hungary, the city with the largest number of thermal springs in the world.
