MOR Cosmetics Behind the Brand

Inspired by our own delight in personal luxury, we invite you to indulge in every sense with MOR...

MOR is the expression of a dynamic collaboration between Australian designers, Dianna Burmas and Deon St.Mor.

Creative spirits merged when they first met in 1998 unaware that in just over three years, they would be running what would become a hugely successful international body care company.

At the time of their meeting, Dianna was carving a reputation as a talented visual merchandiser, stamping her refreshing aesthetic on department store floors across the globe. Meanwhile, Deon, an industrial design graduate, was co-owner of a budding, Melbourne-based interior design company.

With a shared passion for travel, food and the arts ~ their union led to the development of an extensive range of contemporary lifestyle products and the opening of an interior-design retail store in the Melbourne CBD. Their signature pieces included lamps, vases, cushions, candle holders and stationery with a distinct, chic-urban edge.

The range extended to include a collection of soaps ~ their first foray into the world of beauty products. A collection of lotions, aromatic oil blends and candles followed soon after. Inspired by traditional apothecary, they had fallen in love with the endless possibilities of blending age old & contemporary ingredients and decided there and then to channel their energies into this vision.

In the midst of discussing their newly made plans in May 2001, in the back of a New Delhi cab, Deon spotted a street sign with the word, MOR (meaning peacock in Hindi). It struck a chord and upon their return to Melbourne, the pair immediately registered MOR Cosmetics.

The collections combine Deon and Dianna's flair for design and are presented in uniquely beautiful packaging. The duo is continuously refining their ranges ~ sourcing new ingredients & innovation to capture the essence of luxury and well-being.

Today, MOR brings you over 250 exquisite pampering products. The brand is sold in some of the world's savviest beauty and lifestyle emporiums, spas and department stores, including Harrods & Fenwick's in the UK, Fred Segal, Nordstrom, Lisa Kline & Anthropologie in the USA, David Jones & Myer in Australia.

MOR also enjoys a cult following around the globe with a celebrity fan base of red-carpet beauties from Sydney to New York, Tokyo to London and beyond.

Enjoy the journey!
