Ariane Durand and Ariane Bélisle launched The Orā Way in 2021, a clean beauty company that blends tradition, nature, and innovation.

This marked not only a product launch but also a testament to their dedication to bringing the beauty of French Polynesia to new horizons. Today, Orā goes beyond skincare, providing facial and body treatments that seamlessly blend modern practices with the richness of natural resources. Their commitment extends to offering an immersive experience in their unique space, allowing clients to discover the power of Orā products.
