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 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.
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.
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.
