Orveda, the award-winning French skincare brand renowned for its potent, all-natural formulations, has garnered a loyal celebrity following, with figures like Pamela Anderson and fashion designer Giambattista Valli praising its ability to deliver glowing skin ahead of major red-carpet events. Described as a “best-kept secret” in the beauty world, Orveda is now bringing its science-driven skincare to Singapore through an exclusive partnership with Raffles Hotel, offering bespoke facial treatments at its newly established Le Studio.
Le Studio: A Sanctuary for Skincare
Le Studio, housed in the iconic Gem Suite at Raffles Hotel, offers a serene, luxurious setting for its range of personalized treatments. The experience begins with a consultation, where an Orveda-certified therapist customizes a regimen tailored to the client’s skincare needs. With a wish-list of concerns—from dark circles under my eyes to enlarged pores—I was curious to see whether Orveda’s products could address my extensive skincare goals.
The menu at Le Studio features three bespoke treatments: Glow is the New Lift (60 minutes), Anti-Fatigue Skin Rehab (60 minutes), and Omni Solution (90 minutes). I chose the latter, enticed by its promise to tackle “premature aging and lack of radiance.”
A Holistic, Relaxing Approach
Unlike traditional facials that often involve extractions and exfoliations, Orveda’s treatment is rooted in relaxation and rejuvenation. The focus is on sensory massages and the careful application of its products, which aim to hydrate, prime, and revitalize the skin. The approach avoids harsh treatments like retinol or chemical peels, instead emphasizing “green science”—a fusion of biotechnology, plant-based ingredients, and natural actives to create skincare that is both effective and gentle.
Orveda’s formulations are designed to strengthen the skin’s microbiome, fortify its barrier, and combat signs of aging with high concentrations of ingredients like marine enzymes and kombucha tea extracts. These active ingredients are combined through advanced biotechnology, ensuring that the brand’s skincare is both clean and vegan.
Skincare: Resilience and Age-Proofing
Orveda co-founder Nicolas Vu, who launched the brand with Sue Nabi in 2017, emphasizes that the future of skincare lies in strengthening the skin’s barrier and supporting the healthy bacteria that form its second skin. By focusing on resilience and natural beauty, Orveda aims to create products that help the skin become more age-resistant, providing a long-term solution for those seeking youthful, glowing skin.
For those of us who may have neglected our skincare routines in the past, Orveda offers a reassuring reminder that it’s never too late to begin investing in a brighter, more youthful future. As my own experience proves, this innovative skincare brand lives up to its reputation—delivering visible results without compromising on safety or sustainability.
