The Ossetra Concept


Ossetra comes from a Northern land—one where the glittering ice palaces dot the horizon every spring, where the Northern Lights wind in a dazzling pattern across the evening sky, and where graceful beds of seaweed dance on the current, seemingly painting the water with bright, natural color—this is where Ossetra was born. 

 

Built on Purity with Iceberg Water

 

It’s a land that knows the value of the gifts nature has given them. The purity of the icebergs that drift along the coasts every spring is preserved, inside the ice for centuries almost suspended in time. These mighty icebergs take thousands of years to form and many more years to reach the coastline. This water, sheltered from impurities for thousands of years, remains the purest water source in the world, melting with each passing mile to become one with the ocean. Harvesting this rarest of ice, OssetraR uses this water as the base for its products. The naturally toxin-free base leaves your skin more hydrated, pure and smooth to the touch.

 

Infused with the Dance of Seaweed

 

Underneath the dancing waves of the North Atlantic are beds of seaweed left untouched by man, their long leaves beckoning in the gentle lull of the currents. It is here in this idyllic cocoon that Ossetra finds its seaweed. Carefully chosen by hand, small quantities of this beautiful ocean flora are trimmed and brought home to land to become part of Ossetra's family of products. The richly colored seaweeds naturally soften and hydrate the skin instantly renewing its appearance.


Nurturing The Best of Nature

 

The farther north you travel, the more harmony you will find with the changing seasons. With each passing moon, Mother Nature touches the land, as spring becomes summer and the barrens become lush with flora. As the summer deepens, the berries grow: first blueberries, followed by partridgeberries, and then cloudberries, all sprinkled without rhyme throughout the marshes and fields. Wild roses blow in the summer breeze and their fragrance is in the air. At Ossetra, we wait until these little gifts from Nature have fully ripened and blossomed to their most bountiful before we gently hand-pick them, so they may live on in our products. Their rejuvenating powers have become world renowned, and inspires Ossetra to use only Nature’s best to offer you a new, organically lush experience.  

 

Nature’s Fortifying Moor Mud

 

From the Southern edges of our Newfoundland Island, you can find untouched glacial mud & peat, a sole organic substance. This product, in its pure unrefined state of natural decomposition, contains the silt from herbs, flowers and other organic matter. Over time this low acidic pH residue is transformed to a fine paste that easily dissolves in water. The mud contains a concentration of vast healing agents such as minerals, trace elements, organic substances, vitamins, enzymes and natural antibodies. These nourishing properties quickly establish themselves deep within the skin. These muds contain chelating properties that absorb into the dermis… detoxifying; rejuvenating; restoring and enriching. By incorporating Ossetra’s Wondrous Earth mud hydrotherapy spa treatment, you are giving a therapeutic treatment to the body as well as the spirit. 

 

Nature’s Pure Renewable Living Water

 

Our Newfoundland Birch Sap symbolizes purity and femininity and is also known as “the mother of the forest”. On the west coast of our island, the sap within the birch tree begins to stir during the spring of each new year. Birch sap is a genuine, pure natural product, which flows through the birch tree and brings it back to life after the harsh winters in Newfoundland. Birch sap embodies what is nature’s own renewable energy cycle. The sap is living water. This health nectar has been found to perform an important and beneficial function for the human body; inside and out. By incorporating birch sap into our Ossetra products it provides an essential epidermal treatment. The sap promotes the skin to reestablish its normal homeostasis. Birch sap is a natural antiseptic, astringent and disinfectant. It has proven to be a very useful ingredient within products that can treat skin-dermatitis, eczemas and furunculous. When you add our Ossetra Birch Sap and Body Oil to your bath you will not only help to clear troubled sinuses and skin eruptions but after your bath you will feel totally revitalized.

 

The Jewel of the North Atlantic Sea

 

With each passing spring season, Newfoundland receives a gift from the sea. Capelin fish naturally roll in on our shores during a time a year when the high north Atlantic tides are rising. Thousands of capelin expire naturally during this rolling period when they come to the shores to spawn their young. They are unable to overcome the forceful high tides and swim back out to sea. The capelin can then be harvested and our companies caviar is incredibly healthy; not only to eat, but is also nutritious for the skin. Like human skin, caviar is roughly 50 to 70 percent water with a similar break-down of lipids and other trace elements. Because the cellular format of caviar is similar to human skin, it is able to penetrate quickly, provide nutrients more effectively and yield faster results. Caviar extract in skin care supplies skin with a balanced diet and effectively promotes flawless skin. Our capelin caviar extract is a rich source of minerals, vitamins A, D and C complex. When you put our Ossetra caviar crème essence on your skin, you’re ultimately giving back life to your skin cells.

Newfoundland’s Natural Miracle Fiber

North Atlantic Shrimp are one of the most abundant of over 30 different species of shrimp around the world. They flourish in the deep murky depths off the resourceful coast of Newfoundland between temperatures of two and six degrees Celsius. This deep-water prawn (Pandalus Borealis) shrimp live in large numbers to depths greater than 150 meters as they prefer an ocean bottom that is soft and muddy. Ossetra uses the discarded outer hard shell (exoskeleton or carapace) Chitin fiber and its derivative Chitoson in some of their skin care products i.e. Oceanaria Facial Masque, Eye crème, and Hair products as this natural versatile substance is non-toxic and non-allergenic.  Chitin promotes a faster healing time for pre and post facial surgery procedures and is fully biodegradable and therefore environmentally friendly.

"As an actress of a 'certain age' I am forever seeking a line of skincare that can help me look my best in front of today's unforgiving HD cameras, where every flaw is magnified and exposed. Make up can only do so much. The Ossetra line of skincare is the purest, most effective line I've tried EVER, bottom line. The bonus is it is all natural, made from the purest raw ingredients including iceberg water, seaweed and caviar to name a few.
