Our Journey

Our body possesses the fascinating ability to self-rejuvenate. Our skin, for example, renews itself every 28 days. There are many external factors, however, disturbing this process: uv rays, pollution, alcohol, bad nutrition as well as a lack of sleep and movement. Using the wrong skincare can be a negative factor, too. As a result, we age faster than we should and it shows – the skin gets dry, more irritated and sensitive, fine lines and wrinkles appear, a feeling of fatigue spreads through the body.

To better understand the process, Dr. Rainer W. Schmidt summoned a group of world-leading experts: dermatologists, biologists, beauty professionals and anti-aging scientists. In 2007, he presented NIANCE and the unique Swiss Glacier Complex® after more than three years of intensive research and thousands of clinical trials. The groundbreaking anti-aging formula combines two treasures of Switzerland: the pure nature of the Alpine region and world-leading clinical science.

The launch of NIANCE and the Swiss Glacier Complex® set a benchmark in anti-aging skincare proving that »clean« and effective are not mutually exclusive. State-of-the-art FERNESSE™ biotechnology allowed to transform natural and active ingredients from the Swiss Alpine region into light textures without the use of paraffins, parabens, mineral oils, sensitizers, hormones and genetically modified ingredients. By stimulating the synthesis of collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin the skin becomes smooth, firm and youthful.

Beauty experts and dermatologists all over the world were truly amazed by a skincare line that kept its promises (finally). The highly effective, skin-friendly and clean formulas showed long lasting, visible results as was rarely seen before. Premium retailers and leading 5-star hotels all over the world chose NIANCE for their spas catering to a sophisticated clientele that expects nothing but the best.

The Journey To Longevity

The experts around Dr. Schmidt soon discovered that treating the skin from the outside was not enough to reach the desired effect. To strengthen the structure of the body and skin while at the same time significantly increasing moisture from the inside NIANCE presented the Beauty Booster, a unique nutritional supplement combining natural collagen derived from premium North Atlantic deep-sea fish and plant-fermented hyaluronic acid with essential vitamins, anti-oxidants and minerals.

By introducing a groundbreaking holistic approach to treat the skin – and the body – from the outside and the inside in perfect synergy NIANCE set a benchmark in effective anti-aging – again.

Next Level Nutritional Supplements

Following the success of the Beauty Booster, NIANCE researchers travelled the globe for several years to study centenarians and their lifestyle. They identified numerous active ingredients in plants, fruits and herbs contributing to »healthy« aging and longevity. It was the development of the groundbreaking biotechnology FERNESSE™, however, that allowed to release the full Triple-Biotic power (pre-, pro- and post-biotics) of these ingredients and dramatically increase the bio-availability of nutrients. Four highly effective, clean and vegan formulas address major aspects of beauty and well-being: Sleep, Vitality, Weight Management and Cleanse.

By including (inner) general well-being into (outer) beauty NIANCE introduced a new era for holistic health and beauty solutions with the launch of GENR8®.

SWISS GLACIER COMPLEX ®

Swiss Glacier Complex® is the core revitalizing engine of NIANCE skincare products, composed of four (4) groups of potent active ingredients from the Alps, achieving four (4) comprehensive anti-aging effects: 24-hour long-lasting hydration and moisturizing, skin microbiome support, wrinkle reduction and prevention, and firming & lifting.

Swiss Glacier Complex® is like a stream of light poured into a bottle. It safeguards the well-being of the epidermis, stimulates cell renewal, delays the first signs of skin aging, and reactivates the skin’s own ability to regenerate and rejuvenate by stimulating the synthesis of collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin. The skin becomes smooth, firm and youthful. Thanks to the proprietary FERNESSE™ biotechnology that transforms Edelweiss, Thymus Vulgaris, Gentiana Lutea Root, Buddleja Davidii and Borago Officinalis Seed oil by enzymatic activation, Swiss Glacier Complex® achieves the high performance of anti-aging but in an environmentally-friendly way, without the use of paraffins, parabens, mineral oils, sensitizers, microplastics, hormones and genetically modified ingredients. It is a vegan-friendly complex.

SWISS ALPINE GLACIER WATER

Sourced from the famous Matterhorn glaciers in the Zermatt area of Switzerland, this highly pure water is further enriched with minerals and elements that provide ample benefits for use on the skin. It provides the most direct nutritional supplements to the cells to give a radical improvement in skin texture for tender and beautiful looking skin.

Swiss Glacier water is not only pure but also refreshing with an excellent taste. Zermatt water is also very soft because it primarily flows through crystalline rock such as gneiss and granite and thus does not pick up minerals, however contains calcium and sulphate because of the rock. Containing virtually no nitrate as the mountain slopes are little used for agriculture the microbe values lie far below the Swiss average and also far below the legal tolerance value.

Hidden in a deep valley in between the most impressive mountains Zermatt is dominated by a huge pyramidal rock, the world famous Matterhorn. Crystal clear, pure air and a heavenly quietness are found in this scenic place. From the famous mountain region comes the purest Zermatt Glacier Water preserved untouched for centuries and now one of the core elements in all NIANCE products.
