XOMD® is the world’s first Moodceutical™, a revolutionary skincare line inspired by the transformative power of oxytocin.

The AROUSE Moisturizer and INTOXICATE Serum are the "X" and "O" of personal care: a kiss and a hug in skincare form. Designed to mimic the emotional and physiological effects of connection. They tap into the power of oxytocin-inspired bonding, creating a ritual that goes beyond skin-deep, blending clinically backed results with mood-enhancing benefits.

For XOMD®, packaging was never just a container – it’s the first spark of attraction. Created by Geletka+ in collaboration with founders Dr. Sabrina Fabi and Dr. Steven Dayan, two of the most published doctors in the world on the science of attraction, every detail embodies the brand’s core tension: the push and pull of intimacy.

The matte black and soft cream palette plays with contrast – power and softness, boldness and warmth – while the X-shaped serum bottle and O-shaped moisturizer jar give the products a sculptural presence that mirrors their names. A soft-touch finish evokes intimacy, while UV accents deliver a flash of energy. Even the logo tells a story: the hard lines of the X meet the curves of the O, reflecting masculine and feminine, strength and invitation.

Inside the box, a hidden surprise awaits: an abstract pattern inspired by oxytocin molecules, underscoring XOMD’s commitment to science. The design invites touch, conversation, and display, making it as at home on a bathroom counter as it is on a nightstand.

This is packaging meant to be experienced – picked up, held, and remembered. It aligns with the products’ purpose, which is to not only transform skin’s radiance and texture, but also to restore confidence and self-expression.

Together, AROUSE and INTOXICATE are more than skincare. They’re a multisensory experience, a daily reminder that beauty is as much about how you feel as how you look. With packaging that captures both science and seduction, XOMD® has created a new design language for confidence.
