Hormeta was born in the hands of its founder Maurice Chaponnier who discovered the surprising effect of trace elements on the human organism particularly, the skin. Trace elements are minerals that occur naturally in the human body in trace quantities and are essential in activating vital bodily functions and ensuring cells function healthily. Each Hormeta product is a blend of trace elements and exclusive ingredients formulated to strengthen the skin's defense against oxidative stress and slow down the aging process. Perfected through years of research, Hormeta draws on the rich mineral and vegetal diversity of Switzerland's natural environment to select high-performance active ingredients and natural plant extracts to include in the development of their unique formulas.

This luxurious brand has its roots in the overlooking Lake Geneva in 1949. Equipped with their own research and manufacturing unit, the Hormeta Laboratories remain innovators in the use of trace elements and continue to perfect exclusive complexes. Drawing on their expertise and sense of excellence, they offer a full range of tailored, prestigious and effective products that meet a variety of cutaneous needs. Today, more than 60 years after it was first founded, this family-run company continues the work initiated by its founder. The first and only range of products to incorporate trace elements while respecting their optimum concentration levels.
