For me, true beauty comes from something inside you – the way you look at life – how you conduct yourself – how you move – how you treat the people around you – and that you are true to yourself so that you have the energy to be real to others.
What does Beauty mean to you?
On Skincare
I use different products, depending on what I feel my skin needs for the day. I love the Black Rose Cream Mask from Sisley. I use it in the morning for smooth skin and a natural glow. After this mask, I feel that even with very light makeup, I am ready for the day. I also like to use the Blue Drops from RAAW Alchemy when my skin is feeling dry. I always have the Blue Drops in my bag, just in case. Since I’m often running around, I use the Blue Drops when I need refreshing.
In Orit's File
‘Brightening and depuffing eye cream. I like it when my skincare has a natural effect, and this cream makes me look well rested. When I use the cream, I feel that no further makeup is necessary, which is perfect for a slow working day.’
‘When I have a day full of appointments and events, I like to wear a beautiful colour on my lips. The softer tones compliment my skin, and that is why Velvet Teddy works great with my skin tone.’
‘Since I am working on jewellery with my hands all day, a good hand soap is an essential for me. This soap reminds me of the many summers I have spent in Italy with my family – the smell of olives and Mediterranean evenings.’
‘These are perfect for me before going to bed. After using the Blue Drops, I feel like my skin can recharge during the night. The facial oil calms down my skin and gives me a soft feeling that lasts. I also take the Blue Drops with me, as a reviver during busy days.’

On Haircare
Taking care of my hair is very important to me. I try to only wash my hair once a week to make sure I don’t damage my hair by excessively using products. I also protect my hair from sun damage by wearing a hat when the sun is too bright.
On Make-up
I like wearing as natural make-up as possible. Especially after using my skincare, I feel that just a little touch of makeup is enough. I love using Rouge on my cheeks, to get that warm glow of color. Mascara finishes my look and makes me feel ready to start the day. When I have events, special dinners, or am going out, I like to combine my everyday make-up with my MAC lipstick in the color Velvet Teddy and quite dark eye makeup to achieve a more mysterious look.
On Health and Wellness
Every morning, I like to get up before my family members and tiptoe downstairs. I take some freshly squeezed warm lemon water to slowly wake up and continue my morning routine in the bathroom. The splash of cold water on my face makes me feel awake. Of course, a cup of takeaway coffee tops my morning routine off. I don’t eat until after noon – I have noticed that this food pattern works best for me.
I have recently started a new routine where I drink bone broth every morning to improve my skin and the health of my body. I have read that bone broth helps reduce wrinkles and slows the onset of fine lines: two of my biggest skin concerns. But it can also be used as a remedy when your body has inflammation – it tastes great combined with fresh ginger.
My evenings are very opposite of my daytime hours – I love to do absolutely nothing – relax and cook a nice dinner for my family and friends. The most important thing for me is to completely relax with people I love and have great conversations and lots of laughs.
On Rituals
I believe that good health is closely related to nature, so I try to get as much fresh air as possible. I like to explore and be inspired by nature. The freshness and colors revitalize my spirit and restore my creative energy.
On Fragrance
My favorite perfume which I absolutely cannot live without is ‘Portrait of a Lady’ from Frederic Malle. The perfume reminds me of something very personal to me. I would describe the scent as mysterious and dark, with undertones of Rose – something that can’t be described in words.
What is always in your handbag?
In my bag you will always be able to find a blush, a lipstick and a mini perfume. I always carry a facial spray with me, which is a great refresher on busy days. I frequently spend my days in the workshop and need this essential afterwards.
Orit's Directory...
I always go to Ara’kai Copenhagen for my skincare and beauty treatments. Just entering the beautiful space already calms me down, and the aesthetics and quietness are very peaceful. I always leave the space with a refreshed mind and skin.
‘Radiance boosting body oil. This body oil gives my skin a beautiful light shimmer and glow. I love this product as a finish after a day in the sun.’
