- The Marie Veronique Story
A plant-rich, antioxidant-dense facial oil that nourishes and defends, Marie Veronique’s Protective Day Oil offers daily moisture and sun-protective support through nature’s most intelligent lipid allies. Formulated with a balanced blend of omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids from chia, kiwi seed, olive, avocado, and algae oils, this oil strengthens the skin’s natural barrier, reduces inflammation, and helps maintain elasticity and hydration throughout the day. A potent concentration of carotenoids from rosehip seed and raspberry seed oils unite with astaxanthin to provide UVA protection when layered under SPF, helping to delay collagen breakdown and visible signs of aging. EPA, a rare omega-3 found in algae oil, actively prevents wrinkle formation by blocking UV-induced enzymes that degrade collagen, while pomegranate, tomato seed, and broccoli seed oils offer deep antioxidant defense through compounds like sulforaphane. With calming infusions of neroli, geranium, and helichrysum essential oils, this luxurious yet lightweight oil absorbs easily and leaves skin soft, luminous, and resilient...an everyday ritual for protecting skin vitality while honoring its connection to the earth.

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.
