Welcome to the alluring world of <strong>AMRA</strong>...
The <strong>AMRA</strong> philosophy<br />
Beautiful skin begins with exceptional skincare…<br />
Finding a skincare brand that can deliver<br />
the significant results we all look to achieve<br />
can be hard.<br />
In 2014, after six years of extremely<br />
detailed research, dedication and hard<br />
work <strong>AMRA</strong> <strong>Skincare</strong> was born.<br />
Formulated and manufactured in the UK,<br />
<strong>AMRA</strong> <strong>Skincare</strong> uses the World’s most<br />
precious ingredients, alongside naturally<br />
active ingredients.<br />
We are the only skincare brand that offers<br />
precious ingredients in every single product<br />
and we are solely based on this philosophy.<br />
Working with the very best manufacturers<br />
in the UK we have created skin and body<br />
care products that can deliver effective<br />
results. Alongside this we have worked with<br />
the very best perfumers in London and<br />
Paris to develop each collection their own<br />
unique exquisite aroma.<br />
<strong>AMRA</strong> <strong>Skincare</strong> has been created and<br />
developed to exceed the expectations<br />
of the Spa guest with each collection<br />
immersing the skin, body and senses with<br />
exceptional luxury.<br />
We have created world class facials, body<br />
treatments, Hammam Rituals and signature<br />
massages that once experienced, the spa<br />
guest will actively source <strong>AMRA</strong> treatments.<br />
6
At <strong>AMRA</strong> we work on the belief of<br />
4 Layers to the Perfect Skin<br />
1. A layer of actives for the skin<br />
2. A layer of actives for the range<br />
3. A layer of precious ingredients<br />
4. A layer of decedent aroma,<br />
which is formulated according to the range<br />
9
The <strong>AMRA</strong> Products<br />
“ Our products are a fusion of natural, sustainable and ethically<br />
sourced ingredients, combined with the very latest skincare.”<br />
10
We use the best ingredients available<br />
and have invested heavily in the science<br />
behind our precious ingredients and the<br />
science that allows them to deliver their<br />
amazing results.<br />
Using the latest naturally active technology,<br />
derived from plant and marine origin, each<br />
<strong>AMRA</strong> collection is designed with the<br />
maximum key active ingredients allowing<br />
us to develop a skincare brand that is<br />
the ultimate in luxury.<br />
We invest in and use only the finest of<br />
ingredients, which are natural, sustainable<br />
and ethically sourced.<br />
Wherever possible we use organic<br />
ingredients, which we source from projects<br />
in Kerala and Ghana. We are also<br />
manufactured within halal regulations.<br />
Because we invest in the ingredients we<br />
use we do not have to include elements<br />
such as SLS, parabens or other ingredients<br />
we feel can be avoided during formulation.<br />
We do not test our products on animals<br />
and do not agree with the process of<br />
animal testing for cosmetic use. We<br />
are proud to be a British company<br />
who manufacture and formulate all our<br />
products in the UK.<br />
11
The <strong>AMRA</strong> Collections<br />
Six collections each with a full range<br />
of skin and body care products, as<br />
well as their own opulent home range.<br />
Each with their own active story.<br />
13
The Pearl Purifying Collection<br />
Refine & protect<br />
This collection is suited to those looking<br />
for anti-oxidant treatments which are<br />
gentle and nurturing.<br />
Our Pearl Collection has been formulated<br />
to visibly improves the quality of the skin<br />
by refining its texture, reducing cutaneous<br />
imperfections and containing antioxidant<br />
that protects skin against reactive oxygen.<br />
Fresh citrus top notes of Bergamot,<br />
Lemon and Mandarin blended with an<br />
aromatic Green Tea accord, with hints<br />
of Ginger and Nutmeg with a delicate<br />
nuance of dewy Rose.<br />
The actives for the collection include<br />
a pro biotic complex which helps to<br />
remove and fight free radicals leaving<br />
the skin purified. It also helps to prevent<br />
UV-induced DNA damage.<br />
There is also an Elastin active which is<br />
extracted from the leaves of the Manilkara<br />
tree. This is an advanced 4in1 anti-ageing<br />
active ingredient which preserves the<br />
skins youth and recovers firmer and more<br />
elastic skin.<br />
The luxurious Black Pearl is a skin<br />
decongestant and anti-free radical<br />
protecting active for the skins complex to<br />
combat pollution. It also helps the elastin<br />
and fibrils leading to brightened skin.<br />
This range visibly improves the quality of<br />
the skin by refining its texture by reducing<br />
imperfections and skin shine.<br />
15
The Caviar Hydrating Collection<br />
Restore & nourish<br />
We have captured the hydrating,<br />
nourishing and restoring properties in<br />
our Caviar collection.<br />
A bi-function active ingredient system<br />
optimizes the skins hydration levels.<br />
Probiotics strengthen the skin barrier<br />
function and minimises Transepidermal<br />
water loss ensuring the skin has the<br />
ultimate in hydration levels.<br />
The cosmetic properties of Caviar have<br />
been known for thousands of years.<br />
Research studies revealed that Caviar<br />
promotes skin rejuvenation and hydration<br />
due to the chemical composition of<br />
Caviar cells. Caviar has absorbed<br />
sea mineral salts, calcium, phosphorus<br />
and vitamins, which helps to restore the<br />
natural skin balance, due to its vitamins<br />
and minerals content.<br />
Hyaluronic acid helps to maintain a<br />
moisturised and firm skin by improving cell<br />
cohesion and collagen synthesis. The<br />
skin is therefore progressively redensified<br />
and moisturised. Hydrated skin is visually<br />
brighter, smoother and helps prevent<br />
deep crevices within the wrinkle.<br />
The aroma for this collection is a woody<br />
amber fragrance with distinct top notes<br />
of lemon and mint. Contains essential oils<br />
of Orange, Lemon, Mandarin, Lavandin,<br />
Spearmint, Peppermint, Patchouli, Cypress,<br />
Juniper, Schinus Molle and Cardamom.<br />
16
The Gold Rejuvenating Collection<br />
Tone & Recover<br />
Using 24 Karat Gold this collection has<br />
the ability to increase the firmness and<br />
appearance to the skin, increasing its<br />
visible hydration levels and creating a<br />
smooth and toned effect to the skin.<br />
Gold has a natural anti-inflammatory<br />
factor and helps promote cell renewal<br />
while eradicating free radicals, balancing<br />
cell metabolism and hydrating the skin.<br />
Containing an Elastin active which<br />
is extracted from the leaves of the<br />
Manilkara tree, this advanced 4in1<br />
anti-ageing active ingredient preserves<br />
the skins youth and recovers firmer and<br />
more elastic skin with anti-elastase<br />
properties, an anti-glycation effect,<br />
stimulating the production of Elastin,<br />
EMILIN-1 and FIBULIN-5 with perceivable<br />
increase in skin firmness and elasticity<br />
(clinical study).<br />
Our Gold Rejuvenating collection also<br />
contains Vitamin C, which is stabilised with<br />
glucose. When applied to the skin, the<br />
skin’s natural enzymes slowly release the<br />
Vitamin C for a healthier, brighter, younger<br />
looking skin. It promotes the synthesis of<br />
collagen helping to increase the skins<br />
suppleness. It also offers sunlight protection,<br />
scavenging free radicals reducing skin<br />
roughness and inflammation.<br />
The aroma for this collection is rich amber<br />
with top notes of effervescent citrus on<br />
a sumptuous heart of aromatic herbs<br />
nestling on a base of rich woods and<br />
musk’s. Contains Lemon, Lavadin, organic<br />
Black Pepper, Patchouli, Cedarwood,<br />
Oak Moss absolute, Clove, Petitgrain,<br />
Orange, Guaiac wood, Fir Balsam and<br />
Celery seed oil.<br />
19
The Diamond Illuminating Collection<br />
Smooth & Diffuse<br />
Illuminating Diamond allows the skin to<br />
become truly radiant. Clinically proven<br />
to create illuminated skin this collection<br />
helps to reduce the appearance of<br />
wrinkles and fine lines.<br />
The Diamond in this collection is attached<br />
to spherical spheres allowing the skin to<br />
become truly radiant. These reside in the<br />
wrinkles of the skin so when UV light hits<br />
the skin it gives the perception of optical<br />
blurring leading to illuminated skin.<br />
A Dermal-Epidermal Junction (DEJ) active<br />
offers visibly smoother and plumper skin.<br />
It stimulates the 6 major constituents of<br />
the skins matrix and the DEJ that ensures<br />
optimal architecture of the tissue. This<br />
collection also uses Retinyl Palmitate:<br />
encapsulated Vitamin A, in a cyclodextrin<br />
system facilitates its controlled release<br />
into the skin.<br />
Retinol increases cell production in the<br />
top layer of skin that helps to pep up the<br />
skin. Cells look smoother and skin looks<br />
younger. This also has a positive effect<br />
on collagen production, because the<br />
skin uses retinoic acid when it produces<br />
collagen. As a result, skin looks plumper.<br />
Also, it helps to reduce pigmentation that<br />
comes with sun damage.<br />
Our Diamond range aroma is inspired by<br />
decadent sparkling Green, Violety top<br />
notes with citrus Bergamot and Grapefruit,<br />
fruity notes of Blackcurrant and Apple,<br />
and herbal notes of Thyme and Basil. A<br />
heart of subtle floral notes blends into the<br />
warm, woody, amber, musky base notes.<br />
Contains Grapefruit, Bergamot, Thyme,<br />
Rosemary, Basil, Galbanum essential oils<br />
to help create balance and illumination.<br />
21
The Platinum Firming Collection<br />
Strengthen & Repair<br />
Key Platinum actives support the activation<br />
of the cutaneous repair process, and in<br />
particular at the level of the fragile and<br />
UV-damage prone papillary dermis.<br />
Platinum is carried by a spherical powder<br />
to allow maximum absorption. The Platinum<br />
is released through sebum contact and<br />
delivers a high level of moisture to the<br />
skin. The Platinum gives optimised soft<br />
focus, light diffusion, and wrinkle correction<br />
and toning to leave the skin looking and<br />
feeling firmer.<br />
We have also added a wrinkle active<br />
which, supports the activation of the<br />
cutaneous repair process. In particular at<br />
the level of the fragile and UV-damage<br />
prone papillary dermis. This promotes<br />
wrinkle smoothing and improves tone<br />
and elasticity.<br />
The Platinum collection aroma is inspired<br />
by the classic oriental floral perfume rich in<br />
Sandalwood and Vanilla notes, fragrant<br />
from Jasmin and Osmanthus, heady and<br />
enticing from Ylang Ylang.<br />
22
The Precious Collection<br />

that have been specifically selected for<br />
their robust benefits.<br />
The active ingredients for the collection,<br />
along with the key actives of each product,<br />
deliver significant results which, are visible<br />
from first use.<br />
VOLCANIC ROCK is truly one of the<br />
World’s natural skin purifiers. The rich pure<br />
mineral content helps to strengthen skin<br />
whilst the exfoliating properties mean that<br />
it is ideal for removing dead surface skin<br />
cells revealing the health skin beneath.<br />
PLATINUM works on a cellular level to<br />
help to elliminate toxins from the skin. It<br />
works to restore the skins balance and<br />
firmness whilst helping to protect it from<br />
damage caused by free radicals which,<br />
can lead to premature ageing. Platinum<br />
delivers a high level of moisture to the<br />
skin and also gives wrinkle correction<br />
and toning to leave the skin looking and<br />
feeling firmer.<br />
METEORITE packed with minerals such<br />
as calcium, iron and magnesium Meteorite<br />
offers powerful benefits to the skin.<br />
Because the Meteorite Powder we use<br />
has not be exposed to pollution the<br />
rich mineral content is the purest it can<br />
possibly be. When combined with other<br />
active ingredients Meteorite Powder has<br />
dynamic anti-ageing effects as well as<br />
being extremely hydrating.<br />
CELLUACTIV8 - Scientifically proven<br />
to help the skin to regenerate this active<br />
accelerates the healing of micro shaving<br />
cuts whilst increasing the stress resistance of<br />
extreme situations such as cold shock and<br />
heat stress. This active is also a powerful<br />
skin moisturier with long-lasting effects.<br />
Taurine in this active protects and has<br />
a stabilising effect. Studies have shown<br />
that taurine has a positive influence on<br />
the healing of wounds. It stabilises cell<br />
membranes and increases cell resistance<br />
to external stress factors such as UV stress.<br />
Taurine is also an active which is a direct<br />
antioxidant that scavenges free radicals.<br />
It helps to calm the skin, leading to<br />
improved skin resilience whilst helping to<br />
diminish fine lines and wrinkles.<br />

<strong>AMRA</strong> <strong>Skincare</strong><br />
Designed out of a passion for difference<br />
In 2007 Sue Jessop, Founder & CEO of <strong>AMRA</strong> <strong>Skincare</strong>, set about creating a brand that<br />
would represent her passion for all things luxury. Inspired by the leading luxury Fashion, Car<br />
and Jewellery brands, Sue wanted to reflect those principles into her skincare range.<br />
With over 20 year’s experience in the spa and wellness sector as well as a previous<br />
University Lecturer in Business and Cosmetology, Sue discovered that there was a<br />
demand for a luxury skincare brand that would deliver significant results which people<br />
demand from their own skincare. The belief of formulating the ultimate skincare collections<br />
were designed without finding a cost per ml. Sue simply added everything that she<br />
believed to be required to revolutionise the skincare market and that’s how it remains.<br />
Since launching in 2014 <strong>AMRA</strong> <strong>Skincare</strong> has been a spa brand found in the World’s best<br />
spas creating luxurious treatments in surroundings that have a synergy with the brands beliefs.<br />
