Who is behind VORELL
VORELL was founded by Dr. Nesi Bahar and Akın Doğan. Dr. Nesi Bahar contributes to formulation development and reviews the brand's published skincare content. The company operating the brand is DOBA GROUP MEDİKAL SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş., registered in Kağıthane, Istanbul.
Pearl extract, no plastic glitter
Many "glow" products on the market rely on large shimmer particles or plastic glitter. Those particles reflect light in visible points: up close you see individual specks, and they transfer onto clothing. VORELL's approach is different. In Shine Boost, pearl extract and mineral effect pigments (synthetic fluorphlogopite, titanium dioxide) spread light evenly across the skin surface instead of scattering it into points, so the result reads as a finish rather than as sparkle.
One honest caveat: pearl is a natural material of mollusc origin, so Shine Boost Face & Body Serum is not vegan. VORELL holds no vegan certification and does not market any product as vegan.
The four products
| Product | What it does | Size | Price (TRY) | Rinse off? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Water Glow Tonic | Leave-on toner with glycolic acid (AHA) and salicylic acid (BHA); helps clarify the look of pores | 100 ml | 840 | No |
| Water Glow Serum | Hydrating serum with a hyaluronic acid complex, ectoin and sodium PCA; holds water in the skin without an oily layer | 30 ml | 999 | No |
| Water Glow Bubble Mask | no-rinse bubble mask with oat extract, lactobacillus lysate (postbiotic), madecassoside and beta-glucan; about a minute to foam, then massaged in | 100 ml | 970 | No |
| Shine Boost Face & Body Serum | Pearl-extract glow serum for body and face, with niacinamide, squalane, ceramide NP and centella asiatica | 50 ml | 1,140 | No |
| The Glow Ritual set | Tonic + Serum + Bubble Mask together (Shine Boost not included) | 230 ml | 2,499 | No |
| The Glow Ritual 4-Piece Set | Tonic + Serum + Bubble Mask + Shine Boost together | 280 ml | 3,499 | No |
None of the four products requires rinsing. That is the reason the three-step Water Glow routine takes about three minutes from start to finish.
The three-step routine
| Step | Product | How |
|---|---|---|
| 1 — Clarify | Water Glow Tonic | Two or three sprays onto a cotton pad, wipe gently over cleansed skin. Do not rinse. |
| 2 — Hydrate | Water Glow Serum | Apply once the skin is dry. On damp skin the effect is reduced. |
| 3 — Finish | Water Glow Bubble Mask | Spread on, allow about a minute for the foam to develop, then massage in gently. Do not rinse; makeup can go on top. |
Shine Boost sits outside this routine. It can be used morning and/or evening and also stands out on special occasions; its main use is the body: arms, legs and décolleté.

AURA — free AI skin analysis
AURA is VORELL's free, browser-based skin analysis tool. Two photos (one with flash, one without) produce a glow score, seven skin metrics and a suggested routine. It takes about two minutes, requires no account and no app download. Photos are not stored — the tool is built around Türkiye's KVKK personal-data rules. AURA is not a medical diagnostic tool.
