- The Marie Veronique Story
A microbiome-friendly, essential oil-free ritual that redefines deep cleansing, Marie Veronique’s Pure + E.O. Free Oil Cleanser leans on the wisdom of omega-6-rich oils to gently dissolve congestion at its root, rather than stripping the surface. Safflower and sunflower oils thin sebum and clear buildup within the follicle, while decy glucoside, a non-sudsing botanical surfactant, lifts away debris, sunscreen, and makeup without disturbing the skin’s natural oils. A supportive blend of pre- and probiotics helps maintain microfloral balance, and superoxide dismutase - a potent antioxidant - safeguards the lipid barrier against oxidative stress. Free from essential oils, microcidal preservatives, and ethoxylated compounds, this biomimetic cleanser is deeply effective yet gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin. With regular use, it reduces congestion, refines texture, and restores balance: offering a truly holistic approach to purification that honors the skin’s intelligence and resilience.
Available in 1fl oz and 4fl oz

Founded in Berkeley, California in 2002, Marie Veronique is a pioneering voice in clean, microbiome-friendly skincare: crafting small-batch, science-forward formulas that honor the skin’s innate intelligence. With a deep respect for biology, their ethos is rooted in the belief that skin doesn’t need fixing...it needs support. Each creation is the result of rigorous research and cross-disciplinary wisdom, drawing from biomedicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and holistic health to create topicals that are not only effective but profoundly thoughtful. Co-founded by chemist Marie Veronique Nadeau and guided by a mission to tell the truth in an industry riddled with misinformation, the brand has become a trusted leader among estheticians, practitioners, and conscious consumers alike. Sustainability and integrity are central to their practice - from glass bottles and reduced packaging to long-standing partnerships with like-minded suppliers. Every product reflects their dedication to the health of both skin and planet. Female-founded and led, the team behind Marie Veronique includes skin health educator Kristina Holey and visionary co-founder Kristy-Moore Jeffress, who together continue to shift the paradigm toward skincare that is ethical, effective, and radically honest.
