Our Philosophy

Spiritual Skincare — from one of Germany's oldest documented sanatoriums.

Merseburg, 9th century. Here, the Merseburg Incantations were recorded—some of the oldest surviving German healing spells, written down by monks who understood that healing does not work against nature, but with it. This conviction is the foundation of Auralys.

Why Merseburg

Order arises there, where it is attested.

The Merseburg Incantations are not myths – they are documents. Recorded by clerics who knew in Merseburg that the word creates order, that rhythm heals, and that nature knows no effect without a cause. Michael Schwarzkopf did not choose this location by chance. He researched for ten years before he understood why Merseburg is the place where Auralys is energized by hand – and nowhere else.

I didn’t choose Merseburg as a backdrop. I understood what is preserved here — and what it means to work in a place that has been associated with healing for twelve centuries. — Michael Schwarzkopf

Three attitudes, one bottle

We believe in three things.
Not at twenty.

Most serums claim many things at once, yet prove few of them. We claim three things about this elixir and can disclose the sources and processes for each of them, because we don't want to hide them, we want to show them.

01

Water

If the water in your skin loses its molecular structure, neither the tenth cream nor the thirtieth active ingredient you layer on top will help, because the actual problem is not a lack of ingredients, but the missing order between the molecules that are already present. Aquaphotomics calls this state molecular chaos — and the way back is not through more active ingredients, but by helping the water learn to sort itself again.

02

Frequency

432 Hz is not an esoteric number, but a physically measurable sound frequency, for which Lindinger was able to show in a comprehensive meta-analysis in 2021 that water recrystallizes under its influence. Each of our batches is treated for three hours at precisely this frequency before the elixir flows into the bottles—because we don't just want to cite this scientific finding, but translate it into craftsmanship.

03

Moon

There are thirteen full moons in a year, and accordingly there are thirteen editions at Auralys — not because we wanted to work with artificial scarcity, but because the moon dictates the rhythm to which Michael has been working in the manufactory for ten years. Anyone who wants to order an edition does so at the full moon, or waits one lunar cycle for the next batch — because there simply won't be one before then.

Michael Schwarzkopf
The Guardian

Ten years of research, until one vial remained.

Michael is not an entrepreneur who stumbled upon the cosmetics industry at some point, but a researcher who came to skin through aquaphotomics and couldn't stop until every single detail in this bottle had a comprehensible reason. The glass, the water, the 432 Hz frequency, the full moon night, the amethyst in each bottle — none of it is decoration; instead, each element fulfills a purpose that has emerged from ten years of studying the order of water.
For me, Spiritual Skincare does not mean esotericism as a lifestyle accessory. It means that I trust nature to such an extent that I treat it as a partner – and not as a source of raw materials that I need to optimize. — Michael Schwarzkopf, Guardian and Alchemist
The manufactory in Merseburg
The attitude

Not against the time. With her.

Anti-aging is a promise the industry has been unable to keep for thirty years—because it fights and loses against a natural process. Auralys doesn't fight. Auralys instead asks: What has the skin lost, and how does it get it back? The answer Michael found after ten years of research is so simple it's hard to sell: order. Water that flows again. Skin that remembers.
