Orphica

Orphica is a Polish cosmetics brand best known for REALASH, an eyelash-conditioning serum sold in more than 35 countries. The brand is manufactured by Abriga Sp. z o.o., based in Radom, Poland [7], and remains in active distribution, with its official site carrying a 2026 copyright and its products stocked by numerous current retailers.

The range centres on the eye area — lashes, brows and the skin around the eyes — extending into anti-ageing face care and hand and nail products. Orphica presents itself as natural cosmetics built on plant extracts and laboratory testing, trading under the mission line "Real You."

Orphica is owned by Abriga Sp. z o.o., part of the Abriga Group, a Polish manufacturer of cosmetics headquartered at Staromiejska 8/12 in Radom [7]. Abriga describes itself as a maker of natural cosmetics present in 35 countries and names REALASH as its flagship product. The group's portfolio spans several cosmetic brands alongside Orphica, including TOMI, SAY Makeup, Halier, BODY TONES, Melo, MYS, Monolit, Manaya and Celloo; supplements and other categories sit under separate Abriga brands rather than under Orphica itself.

The corporate structure is not fully settled in the public record: two related Abriga entities appear in Polish company filings (KRS 0000615238 and KRS 0000700689), and it is unclear how they divide the group's operations.

Orphica's origin is occasionally misreported. Some retailer listings, such as makeupstore.com, label the brand as French or "made in France" [9], but the manufacturer of record is Abriga in Radom, and the Polish registry confirms the company's Polish base [7]. The French labelling appears to be a retailer-data artifact rather than an accurate account of the brand's origin.

Orphica frames its work as "the unison of science and nature," pairing what it calls the conditioning properties of plants with current scientific research. According to the company, it draws inspiration from nature and uses plant extracts to formulate its cosmetics, with a stated focus on safety and effectiveness [1].

The brand sets out three values — safety, trust and innovation — and says its products use ingredients derived from nature and are tested to reduce the risk of irritation [1]. Its "Real You" mission is described as helping customers discover their natural beauty and enhance their features, a positioning the company links to self-love. Orphica also associates itself with the broader clean-beauty trend.

Orphica organises its catalogue into named lines: ESSENTIALS (conditioning and regenerating), CREATIVE (care and makeup), TIMELESS (anti-ageing) and TOUCH (regenerating hand and nail care). Across these sit the REALASH eyelash enhancer, a BROW brow conditioner, the PURE eye serum, an UP mascara and an ARROW eye pencil, together with TIMELESS day and night creams and TOUCH hand cream and nail-and-cuticle conditioner.

REALASH is the product the brand is built around. Orphica markets it as a serum for longer, fuller lashes and reports test results of 83% longer and 79% fuller lashes after 30 days, with a first visible effect after about 14 days [5]. Its formula includes the peptide Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1 along with plant-derived extracts such as flax, marigold, horsetail and calamus, plus hydrolysed silk and sodium hyaluronate. The company states that REALASH is dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested and is not tested on animals [5].

A 2017 review by the blog uLady Cleopatra, written after the author encountered the brand while in Poland, covered REALASH and the PURE eye serum; the reviewer reported longer, fuller lashes within a week and no adverse reactions to either product [6]. The PURE serum is described by the brand as reducing dark circles and puffiness, with vitamins A, E and B3 among its listed ingredients [6].

Orphica is active. Its official site operates across localised versions for numerous markets and carries an "all rights reserved 2026" copyright, and the brand's products continue to be sold through third-party retailers [4]. REALASH remains in active distribution as the brand's flagship.
