Product Details
Restorative Ceramides + Fatty Acids + Cholesterol rebuild barrier lipid integrity. Moisturize at a profound level.
Epidermal lipids are an essential part of the skin’s stratum corneum. Therefore the most effective lipids for maintaining skin health are those most identical to the epidermal lipids: ceramides, cholesterol and fatty acids.
These lipids also make up about 50% of cell membranes, and can be damaged due to a process called lipid peroxidation, as well as exposure to internal and external stressors.
Intercellular lipid damage compromises barrier function, which can lead to transepidermal water loss. TEWL can result in dryness, irritation and wrinkles. Therefore it’s evident that lipids are an integral part of skin health, and key to a well-functioning barrier system. The essence of skin moisturizing is lipid replacement, best accomplished by applying the relevant lipids.

About The Brand
Marie Veronique
Marie Veronique is a small batch producer and pioneer in clean, microbiome-friendly, efficacious topicals for skin health. Their products support skin health for every skin type and tone — acne, dryness, symptomatic skin, and more — with a particular emphasis on the science of age delay.
Founded in Berkeley, California in 2002, the genesis of our brand was our belief that the skin is inherently whole and resourceful on its own, with an innate quest to heal and to be in balance. This sophisticated, naturally-sustaining organ has evolved over millennia, and, contrary to what you might hear in other places, it does not need to be changed or fixed; our approach is to support it.
The skincare industry has a notoriously bad track record of selling products by making people feel inadequate, and we are dedicated to cutting through the hyped up marketing claims, unfounded trends, and scare tactics that have historically defined it. It’s important to counter misinformation with real information!
Through tireless dedication to research and development, Marie Veronique has established themselves as thought leaders through a simple yet powerful philosophy: Tell the Truth. This commitment has had a powerful result: we are widely acknowledged as a category-defining clean beauty brand by estheticians, healthcare practitioners, the media, the industry, and, of course, our devoted clients.
Love the smell and how nourishing it is for my skin.
