OUD ESSENTIALS Unveils World’s First Oud-based Anti-Aging Range

We all have heard about the usage of Oud as an ingredient in fragrance. However, I have discovered a breakthrough in the global skincare industry.

OUD ESSENTIALS

For the first time ever, OUD ESSENTIALS is introducing Oud as main ingredient in a skincare line. A Swiss skincare brand, they worked together with skincare industry professional, Jean-Marc Dufat and a team of experts to formulate and develop a range of skincare products featuring their unique patented ingredient “OudActive+™” – a super-refined pure essential oil that enhances both physical and spiritual well-being which is organic and excellent for anti-aging.

What is Oud?

Here’s a brief introduction on Oud: Oud is known by many names. It is also known as Agarwood, Aloeswood, Eaglewood, and Gaharu wood. Oud is derived from the dark resin wood of the Aquilaria tree when it gets infected by parasitic mold. The resin occurs in less than 7% of the trees in the wild. Hence, pure Oud is extremely precious and it is one of the most expensive skincare ingredients in the world! Due to its rarity, all species of Aquilaria tree are protected under the CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) convention. OUD ESSENTIALS has an exclusive 30-year Oud supply agreement with Asia Plantation Capital (APC) to ensure that the pure Oud oil they use are sustainable. Apart from religious ceremonies use, Oud is also widely known for its healing and medicinal properties, especially in the Arabian Gulf, Southeast Asia, South Asia, and China. Oud is also amazingly beneficial for the skin as it is rich in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial. In turn, all these benefits from the cutting-edge ingredient can slow down aging process and change the face of skincare industry!

OUD ESSENTIALS Skincare Range

OUD ESSENTIALS offers 4 anti-aging skincare products suitable for all skin types:

Apart from using on the face, Dual-Phase Oil can also be used on body, hair, and DIY into a variety of skincare products. We made our own homemade lip scrub by only using sugar, honey and Dual-Phase Oil. A very nourishing formula!
