Representing one of the most dynamic segments of beauty, skin care has become a crowded landscape where brands are required to create something truly extraordinary to stand out among the competition.
A recent entrant to the space is luxury skin care company, Purdori, which launched in late 2023 to give consumers products that were truly effective without all the unnecessary (and often harmful) ingredients. Purdori’s key differentiator is its innovative approach to product formulations and it utilizes its proprietary RO-ICE+™ formula serves as the base of all its products.
Purdori’s formulation of RO-ICE+™, a nourishing liquid rich with antioxidants, amino acids and unique fruit acids at optimal, clinically tested levels that optimize use for health, is pioneering in the skin care world. Not only does it reevaluate the use of water within skin care products, but by replacing the water with RO-ICE+™ as its base, helps to accentuate the qualities of other ingredients alongside its own benefits. This unique formulation delivers high level of efficacy. By incorporating RO-ICE+™, Purdori can provide more nutrients from the start.”

Pointing specifically to Purdori’s Age-Protective Serum (a formula with up to 80 percent RO-ICE+™) Sylvia Leung, founder of Purdori, said consumers can feel a richer, more potent skin care experience that proves Purdori’s greater skin care efficacy. In addition to the 80 percent RO-ICE+™, the remaining 20 percent of the Age-Protective Serum is composed of unique, gentle, yet powerful botanical ingredients such as Japanese knotweed, gotu kola, rhododendron and green tea extracts that truly help optimize skin health.
At the center of the RO-ICE+™ formulation is ice plant, a succulent resilient in harsh conditions. Leung said she was fascinated by the power of the ice plant which was a key motivator in creating the product line having seen its high efficacy.
After discovering ice plant, Leung worked with an elite team of scientists, physicians, and chemists, adding aloe vera and rose water to the formulation which was then tested thoroughly to fine-tune the ingredient levels. The Purdori team’s mission was to create a formula that delivered exceptional results and simultaneously respected the natural world. The blend had to be highly effective, nourishing and contain natural ingredients with no fillers and reduce environmental impact with recyclable packaging.
“The nourishing, multipurpose RO-ICE+™ base has minimal ingredients and maximal effect,” said Leung. “Getting the ideal mix and texture is complex, but after rigorous research and development, the potent formula was perfected. The outcome is Purdori, a luxurious skin care brand packed with clean and effective ingredients, resulting in healthier skin and helping create a healthier planet.”
Importantly, for RO-ICE+™ to be truly effective, each ingredient, said Leung, had to contribute its own benefits to the formula. Aloe vera moisturizes, heals, reduces acne, lightens blemishes, and fights signs of aging. Rose water helps to protect against free radical damage, speed up wound healing, reduce redness, and soothe inflammation. Ice plant extract helps repair the skin barrier, balance the skin’s natural moisture, and encourage collagen biosynthesis.
Together the three ingredients that make up RO-ICE+™ create balance and address a wide range of skin issues, from inflammation to redness to dryness and healing. Purdori’s research team told Fairchild Studio that while consumers could try using aloe vera, ice plant extract, and rose water separately, they would not receive the full benefits, nor the thoughtfully sourced and powerful botanicals provided by Purdori’s RO-ICE+™ formula.
Separately, while aloe vera is a commonly used ingredient in skin care due to its moisturizing and healing properties, rose water is less common as an ingredient, but studies show it is effective. Ice plant extract remains a rare ingredient in skin care, but Leung told Fairchild Studio she expects conversations about its use will pick up in the coming years.
In the ever-evolving world of skin care, Purdori’s team told Fairchild Studio they look forward to continuing to focus on innovations that will revolutionize the industry.
