Anyone with a glowing, flawless complexion will tell you that skin health starts from the inside out.
We’ve heard them before: how drinking enough water, exercising regularly, eating clean, adopting a positive mindset, incorporating certain oral supplements and using products that work at the cellular level can slow down the effects of time and the environment.
In the annals of cellular therapy, we, as editors, have also come across a gamut of fantastical ingredients that promise to revive skin from within. One that caught our attention of late is biophotons — the bedrock of German beauty brand Noesa.

Biophotons are optical or ultraviolet light particles found in plants, humans and all living things. Light is energy, and the ability to store and emit biophotons is key to a living system’s vitality. To harness this “light power”, Noesa uses a proprietary method of distillation to extract biophotons from wild, precious plants harvested from the Southern French Alps. These extracts are then fused by hand to form a selection of super energy substances that the brand calls “alchemetics”. Each alchemetic serves a different function. Together, through a series of formulations, Noesa’s selection of alchemetics — delivered deep into skin through the brand’s exclusive carrier, Danadem — stimulates cell renewal, repair and growth to improve skin’s defense mechanism and overall health.

The man behind Noesa’s highly complex products is Gerd Gerken, futurologist and former consultant to German ex-prime minister Herman Kohl. A pioneer in “mind design” — rituals that combines the brain science (mind) and system theory (design) with holistic healing (energy body) — Gerken, in seeing how his therapies manifested luminous, youthful skin in his clients, embarked on a ten-year research with three Nobel laureates to replicate this glowing effect in skincare. Noesa was born out of this intensive study.

There are four ranges that make up the brand’s luxe-meets-science repertoire. Its Basic Line includes a cleanser, a peeling lotion, a sunscreen, and body care; the Primacy Collection focuses on anti-ageing and radiance; while the Highness Category consists of supercharged skin boosters for extra hydration, clarity, brightness and lift. Sitting on the pinnacle of Noesa is the Special Treatment series, which gives your skin the ultimate reboot.
