The secret ingredient for skin whitening!

In the 1970‘s, the founder of the Hamburg-based company Medrel, who lived for years in West Africa, came to the idea to develop a whitening product with minimal chemical ingredients.

He made himself familiar with the African „wisdom and knowledge“tradition in the various regions of the different countries he travelled and lived in. From the experience he gained, he learned to combine mother nature‘s abundant natural substances to archieve an optimal end-product without any harmful chemical ingredients causing damage to our skin.

Upon his return to Europe, he undertook comprehensive research and studies to further enhance the effectiveness and composition of the whitening product. It was in 1997, where he finally became satisfied with the final result after years of in-depth research and developement.

Naming the product „ODDESSUM^®“ was a natural choice for him, as the word embodied the various names of the natural substances as spoken in the many African languages.

In 1999, the new brand „ODDESSUM^®“ was registered. From this year on, an additional 10 years passed to create a unique mild fragrance and therewith bring the new product to perfection.

It is today, that we are proud to introduce this new, unique and excellent product which can be best described with the following words: „SECOND TO NONE“.
