A regular shower cleanses, but an Aromica Luxe shower cares for your skin. Its effectiveness is based on two things: improving water quality by filtering and moisturizing the skin with an aromatherapy gel. This combination transforms your daily routine into a true spa experience that is visible and palpable on your skin.
Although Finland's tap water is clean, it often contains chlorine, small particles from pipes, and metals. These ingredients dry out the skin and hair, causing tightness and dryness. Aromica Luxe was developed to solve precisely this problem.
Why isn't regular tap water your skin's best friend?
Finnish tap water is the best drinking water in the world, but its properties are different when showering. The chlorine used for water disinfection effectively kills bacteria, but at the same time, it strips the skin and hair of their natural, protective oils. The result is dry, itchy skin and lifeless, brittle hair.
Another challenge is impurities detached from pipelines. Although water leaves the water treatment plant clean, it collects small amounts of rust, metals, and other particles along the way, which can clog pores and irritate sensitive skin. In hard water areas, limescale also leaves the skin and bathroom surfaces rough.
The Aromica Luxe shower system is not just a showerhead but a comprehensive water treatment device that addresses the root causes of these problems.
Step 1: Water purification – more than just a filter
At the heart of Aromica Luxe is efficient, multi-stage purification. First, water flows through a microfibrous sediment filter that captures all particles larger than 5 microns. It effectively removes rust, sand, heavy metals, and other solid impurities from the water. At the same time, the filter reduces limescale buildup in the showerhead, extending its lifespan and ensuring a consistent water jet.
The second stage takes place in the aroma gel cartridge, where vitamin C immediately neutralizes chlorine. This is not a marketing gimmick, but pure chemistry. When chlorinated water meets the vitamin C gel, the irritating chlorine is transformed into harmless chloride through a chemical reaction. The result is clean, softer, and skin-friendlier water.
Step 2: Skincare and aromatherapy during your shower
Once the water is purified, Aromica Luxe begins to care for your skin. Aroma gel cartridges are filled with Korean cosmetics designed to moisturize and nourish the skin during showering.
The effectiveness of each cartridge is based on four natural ingredients:
-
Aloe Vera: Known for its soothing and moisturizing properties. It helps alleviate skin irritation and redness, making it excellent for sensitive or sun-stressed skin.
-
Snail Secretion Filtrate: A superstar in Korean skincare, rich in skin-renewing ingredients like glycolic and hyaluronic acid. It helps repair skin damage, improve skin elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines.
-
Milk Protein: Nourishes the skin and helps maintain its natural moisture balance, leaving the skin soft and smooth.
-
Vegetable Glycerin: An effective humectant that binds moisture. It helps transport moisture deeper into the skin and prevents it from drying out after showering.
These ingredients and essential oils create a luxurious experience. The scent is subtle and natural, not synthetically strong. It fills the shower space with a gentle aroma that helps either relax or invigorate. Lavender soothes the mind in an evening shower, while lemon provides an energetic start to the day.
What does the Aromica Luxe experience feel like in practice?
You'll notice the difference as soon as you turn on the tap. The Aromica Luxe showerhead's patented plate with triangular holes increases water pressure while reducing water consumption. The shower feels powerful and massaging, but the water bill decreases.
However, the real change is felt after the shower. The skin does not feel tight but soft and moisturized thanks to the purified, vitamin C-treated water and nourishing ingredients. Many find that they no longer need to apply as much body lotion – if any at all.
Hair also benefits. Without the drying effects of chlorine and metals, hair becomes softer, shinier, and more manageable. Color-treated hair also retains its vibrant color longer.
System maintenance is simple
Maintaining your home spa experience doesn't require much effort. The system has two replaceable parts:
-
Sediment filter: Located in the handle of the showerhead. The replacement interval is approximately 3–6 months, depending on water quality and usage. The filter turning brownish indicates collected impurities and the need for replacement.
-
Aroma gel cartridge: Placed inside the showerhead. One cartridge lasts for approximately 6000 liters of water, which means about 1–2 months in family use. The showerhead can also be used without a cartridge, in which case you still benefit from its filtering and water pressure features.
By choosing different scents, you can tailor the atmosphere of your shower. Options range from relaxing forest aromas to invigorating citrus scents.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Aromica Luxe completely remove limescale?
No, it does not. Aromica Luxe is not a water softener, but its efficient sediment filter reduces limescale and other minerals by capturing larger particles. This prevents limescale buildup in the showerhead nozzles, improves the feel of hard water on the skin, and protects the showerhead from clogging.
Is the scent of essential oils strong?
The scent is intentionally subtle and aromatherapy-focused, not overpowering. It creates a pleasant atmosphere in the shower but does not linger on the skin as a strong perfume. It is an experience in the moment.
Can the shower be used without an aroma cartridge?
Yes. Without a cartridge, Aromica Luxe functions as an effective filtering and pressure-boosting shower. You still get all the benefits of the sediment filter, such as cleaner water and better pressure.
How does vitamin C remove chlorine?
Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, is a powerful reducing agent. It reacts immediately with chlorine in the water and chemically converts it into harmless chloride ions. This reaction neutralizes the drying and irritating effect of chlorine.
Are the products suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, often those with sensitive skin benefit the most when chlorine, metals, and impurities are removed from the water. The nourishing ingredients in the cartridges, such as Aloe vera, are generally well-tolerated. If you have known allergies to certain cosmetic ingredients, please check the ingredient list before use.
