“All Embracing Serum” by Odacité California (Glow in a bottle) - Review and Application


Of course, I, Daniela, am enthusiastic about the products you'll find in our high-end cosmetics boutique. That's the North Glow philosophy: only select brands that my colleagues and I have tested and that we're enthusiastic about for several reasons.

By "high-end cosmetics," we at North Glow mean that several requirements must be met simultaneously. The ingredients must be free of harmful substances for humans, animals, and nature, yet still be beneficial for skin care. We don't want to see pointless fillers in our products, nor ingredients that, while fundamentally good, are not suitable for the skin needs for which the product was created. While this is the most important point, it shouldn't be the only one for the products you find with us. We see cosmetics not only as products that are supposed to work on various skin needs, but also as support in your "me-time," your very own time of day that you dedicate exclusively to yourself. The look, feel, and scent of the products should also bring you joy and contribute to your relaxation.

And of course, it's a bit one-sided if you only read our own enthusiasm for the products here. That's why we're thrilled that we're occasionally able to inspire guest writers to share their experiences with various products with us.

Marion

Marion is an Instagram blogger, a huge fan of Odacité products, and a dear friend of mine when it comes to high-end, non-toxic cosmetics. She offered to write me a few lines about one of her favorite serums.

Marion is 44 years old and lives near the Belgian border. Perhaps that's one of the reasons why she and our guest blogger Yasmine from @a.touch.of.violet are so close. Two little big high-end natural cosmetics fans, so to speak. Marion first encountered natural cosmetics on a trip to Australia. There, the market for cruelty-free natural cosmetics was much more advanced and completely basic and self-evident. Marion was so enthusiastic that she stocked up on products there. Back in Germany, her interest was piqued, and she delved deeply into the topic. Since then, she says that switching or going back to conventional cosmetics was no longer an option for her. It took some time until she had tested everything and found a suitable product for all her skin needs, one that she loves and uses again and again. Her top priority is that the products and their ingredients are not tested on animals. Closely followed by the ingredients being free of harmful substances for her own body and the environment. Switching from high-end brands like MAC or Dior wasn't easy and took some time – but it was more than worth it. Here, she introduces one of her favorite products, which she has repurchased several times and continues to use with great enthusiasm.

And especially since Marion has been using products from the Californian eco-beauty brand Odacité for years, it's fascinating and interesting to read her review. After several repeat purchases and a correspondingly long time to observe the effect on her skin and test different application options, she writes below about her experience with Odacité's All Embracing Serum.



In Marion's words

When I came across this serum about two years ago, I was immediately excited to try it out. It's perfect for dehydrated, thirsty skin!

This powerful serum, thanks to its fantastic ingredients, has a variety of positive effects on the skin. Among other things, it's extremely moisturizing without feeling heavy on the skin. It's soothing and anti-inflammatory, with antiseptic and skin-clarifying effects.

In my opinion, this serum is perfect for thirsty, dehydrated combination skin with the first signs of aging. It's not a magic formula that will make you look 10 years younger in one night. But you'll definitely wake up the next morning with plump, velvety skin (because it's super moisturizing). The longer you use it, the more you'll notice your skin improving.

Use in my evening and morning routine

In the evening, I like to use it on its own, on skin previously moistened with toner. Two pumps are enough (also very effective), and I'm ready to go. I always like to warm the serum between my hands for a few seconds and then gently "press" it into my skin. I like to finish with a facial massage; the serum on my skin is ideal for this. You can also use a Gua Sha (massage tool made of various gemstones), which Odacité also offers.

This massage stimulates lymphatic flow (flushing out toxins), reducing puffiness and smoothing fine lines. Try it in combination with this serum! Simply amazing.

During the day, I like to use the All-Embracing Serum mixed with my hyaluronic serum. Love it! Mix three pumps of hyaluronic serum with one pump of Odacite serum and apply it to my skin. My skin immediately feels velvety soft. It absorbs instantly, and my skin is perfectly prepared for the next steps (SPF and daytime makeup). The mixture gives my skin a beautiful glow because it's perfectly cared for.



Ingredients I particularly love

Now I'd like to talk a little more about the ingredients. Even though you can already read most of it in the product description at North Glow 😉 But here's a brief list of a few of my favorites, along with a little something special.

Watermelon seed oil provides the skin with optimal moisture without feeling heavy on the skin. It is a mini anti-aging elixir with numerous vitamins, minerals, and trace elements. The amino acids, unsaturated fatty acids, and antioxidants it contains slow down skin aging and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and dark spots. Lycopene, as An antibacterial agent, it soothes inflammation and prevents pimples. The amino acid citrulline also has anti-inflammatory properties, binds water in the skin, and thus provides a lot of suppleness.

Vitamin A supports the growth and formation of new skin cells, promotes collagen formation in connective tissue and inhibits degrading enzymes.

B vitamins support regeneration, cell growth and division as well as metabolic processes such as protein formation in the skin, thus strengthening it sustainably.

Vitamin E is one of the best-known free radical scavengers, boasting a host of powerful antioxidants such as tocopherol and tocotrienol. This fat-soluble vitamin also accelerates cell regeneration and smooths the skin's texture by binding moisture in the stratum corneum. This makes the skin soft, elastic, and gives it a dreamy glow.

Hibiscus flower oil is rich in antioxidants and mild natural acids that promote skin renewal and thus have a clarifying and balancing effect. The active ingredients inhibit the collagen-degrading enzyme elastase, thus promoting the maintenance of skin elasticity. The high concentration of citric, malic, and hibiscus acids in the hibiscus plant have a brightening effect and, with regular use, can reduce and even out color irregularities, pigmentation disorders, or age spots. The acids also have a clarifying effect, removing sebum, sweat, and makeup residue, acting as an anti-inflammatory, and soothing skin irritations and impurities.
Last but not least, the high concentration of vitamin C and its antioxidant properties make the plant a perfect tool for fighting toxins and harmful environmental influences such as UV rays. Hibiscus naturally supports the skin's ability to retain moisture and nutrients and is also suitable as a moisturizer (similar to aloe vera gel) to optimally hydrate dry and stressed skin.

Oat flake extracts have a soothing effect on stressed skin because they are rich in minerals and vitamins (such as vitamin B1). Oat extracts stimulate skin regeneration and provide it with moisture. Oat flakes also help maintain a balanced pH.


And a little special feature at the end
This wonderful blend of various oils is "crystal infused." This means it's filled with small gemstones, in this case, three amethyst beads. The positive energetic effect of the amethysts is said to influence the serum. Amethyst is said to have the ability to calm the mind and body. Combined with the essential oils used, including neroli, ylang-ylang, and rose, it's said to relax the mind and combat stress upon application. It's indeed a lovely, not too strong, relaxing scent. You see... I'm thrilled. I've repurchased this serum at least four times already. I think that says it all 😉

A few more words from North Glow…
If you enjoyed this review and would like to take a closer look at Odacité's All Embracing Serum, the easiest way to find it is to click on the image below. Along with the Vitamin C Night Cream, the luxuriously scented serum is one of Odacité's best-selling products.
The cosmetics company, which specializes in luxury, high-end skincare, is based in California, USA, and sources most of its ingredients locally. The science behind it comes from France, where many skincare companies are based. It was born out of a situation that is not uncommon for the founding of clean beauty or natural cosmetics brands. The founder found herself in a situation where she understood that something fundamental had to change in her life. And that's what she did.
She quit her job, began a new training program as a health and wellness coach, and embarked on the fascinating journey of eliminating all toxins from her life. However, when it came to skincare, among other things, she wasn't willing to compromise on performance. She wanted it all: efficacy + purity. Since she couldn't find these basic principles in cosmetics at the time, she began creating customized skincare solutions for herself and for private clients.
Demand grew quickly, and so Odacité was born, offering the best of both worlds: luxurious French skincare and sustainable, natural living from California.
A big thank you to Marion from the bottom of my heart for this interesting report and continued enjoyment with Odacité and the All Embracing Serum
