Eminence is committed to being the greenest company possible. Their ingredient farm in Hungary uses geothermal heating, and is powered by solar and wind energy. They use only natural compost and natural plant preservation, plus all planting and harvesting is done manually to reduce carbon dioxide production. Plus, Eminence harvests only from controlled areas to avoid damaging native flowers and herbs. Finally, Eminence uses post-consumer recycled materials to create their packaging and print their letterhead. These are just a few of the many ways Eminence is working toward a greener, healthier planet.Eminence Organic Skin Care was introduced to North America by Hungarian natives Attila and Boldijarre Koronczay in 1996. The Hungarian tradition of skin care is quite unique and, as a result, Hungarian skin care has developed a substantial following throughout the world. Eminence Skin Care began as an effort to introduce the North American market to organic skin care products produced by a reputable and well established Hungarian manufacturer. Eminence began by marketing Hungarian products that have been in continuous production since 1958. In recent years, however, Eminence has changed its Hungarian manufacturing partners and facilities in an effort to provide a broader array of products of ever improving quality and utility. Today, Eminence is the leading provider of organic skin care products from Hungary within the United States. Eminence Organic Skin Care is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia and the products are manufactured in Hungary.



Eminence produces its skin care products with organically grown ingredients. The entire line is free of parabens, mineral oil, petrolatum, magnesium aluminum silicate and sodium lauryl sulphate. Artificial colours and fragrances are also absent. Eminence formulations are designed to incorporate the highest possible levels hand-selected herbs, fruits and vegetables. The harvested ingredients are processed for four months in controlled conditions to remove naturally occurring bacteria. Mass production techniques involving heating or hydrogenation are strictly avoided. The products are ultimately formulated utilising pH 9.5 water with trace minerals drawn from a thermal hot spring lake. Product shelf life is in excess of one year with the use of natural fruit pectin derived preservatives.



Eminence’s wide range of products is categorized from lightest (for oilier skin) to richest (for drier skin) for particular applications such as cleansers, moisturizers and serums. The company also has some distinct lines including its portfolio including a ‘Biodynamic Collection’ and a ‘USDA Collection’. Biodynamic refers to a self sustaining method of farming that regards the farm as a living organism. In a sense, the majority of the Eminence line is biodynamic. The company has chosen to tag a few new products with this term, however, including the Bearberry Eye Repair Cream which has shown good results in the summarised results of a non-characterised clinical study. The USDA Collection suggests organic certification by the government. The line consists of a new waterless hand sanitiser called Organic Tea Tree & Mint Hand Cleanser, a hand cream and a moisture balm.



Eminence offers a collection of powdered sunscreens called SPF 30 Sun Defence Minerals. These products are similar to other powdered mineral sunscreens but also contain naturally derived vitamins and bioflavonoids. Sun Defence Minerals are packaged differently than most powdered mineral sunscreens and have a user friendly applicator.

Eminence products are produced in small batches. As such, different batches have slightly different colours and, potentially, very slight differences in fragrance.
