About Mila d'Opiz and Nature Skins
The Swiss family business Mila d'Opiz is one of the most innovative cosmetic manufacturers in the world. In St. Gallen, the company develops and produces cosmetics and care products for the entire world. The total range already includes more than 150 products and products are regularly added due to new developments. The brand focuses entirely on the cornerstones of quality, innovation, responsibility and partnership.
Nature Skins has been one of those partners for many years. From our own salon we have more than 30 years of experience with these products. We deliver these via our Mila d'Opiz website throughout Europe.
Quality
Since the first creation of Mila d'Opiz, the quality of the products has been central. From high-quality ingredients to the composition of the product to the packaging: we do not compromise on quality. We see our Swiss Medic and ISO certifications, as well as many awards, not only in recognition of this; they also motivate us to make even more high-quality products for our customers around the world.
Innovation
Innovation is the essential element in the cosmetics industry. Thanks to the excellent research department, Mila d'Opiz can look back on many pioneering innovations. In the form of `` The Skin Whisperer '' and `` Phyto DS Forbidden Serum '', we were able to make two groundbreaking products within a few years. 80 years after the first cream, our spirit of invention does not rest for long. We also want to break new ground in the future - for our customers.
Responsibility
We have a responsibility to our customers, our employees and nature. We offer our customers uncompromising quality. We ensure fair conditions for our employees, so that they do not regard work as work only. And we take care of nature, so that later generations can also benefit from the diversity. That is why we do not experiment on animals and we consistently use environmentally friendly packaging.
Partnerships
Since its inception, the company has grown with selected partners. Some partnerships have existed since the first export in 1950. Such long-term relationships, based on the mutual exchange of experience and knowledge, are difficult to find today and are therefore tremendously valuable.
The development of Mila d'Opiz
Mila Opitz, the founder, never thought that Mila d'Opiz would become one of the largest cosmetics manufacturers in Switzerland and would offer products all over the world. It all started in 1938. Mila Opitz made organic facial creams for herself. The company has evolved rapidly since then. But some things have remained the same: the focus on quality, innovation, responsibility and partnership. It all started with Good Face Cream.
As for many people, the care of the skin also starts with Mila d'Opiz with Good Face Cream. This was also the first step that eventually led to where the brand now stands. The search for a good face cream from the founder of the company Mila Opitz-Altherr.
Not finding a cream suitable for her skin problems, she started to produce cosmetics herself. In 1938 Mila Opitz-Altherr developed the first cosmetic products. Her skin problems motivated young Emilie Opitz-Altherr to experiment with care products.
In collaboration with a dermatologist, Emilie Opitz, called Mila by family and friends, succeeds in creating an innovative novelty: a special hormone cream. In 1945 she founded the cosmetics company Milopa. Which is an abbreviation of the name Mila Opitz-Altherr.
Exports outside Switzerland started in 1950. Many developments have followed over the years. A name change to Mila d'Opiz, an increase in exports. The move to a larger building. In addition, the brand is the first cosmetic brand to be ISO certified (quality certificate ISO 9001). Thanks to a seamless quality control from the delivery of the raw materials to packaging and distribution, M. Opitz & Co. AG is also the only cosmetics manufacturer in Switzerland approved for the production and packaging of pharmaceutical products. The company already complies with the standards introduced in the EU in 1997.
Many innovations, new products and prices are achieved. With the "Phyto DS Forbidden Serum" the company presents a further innovation. And it wins another important prize: it receives the “European SPA & Health Award” for the most innovative cosmetic product in Switzerland.
Nature Skins is the only online partner in Europe with over 30 years of salon experience with Mila d'Opiz.
