Marie Veronique’s Gentle Gel Cleanser is a calming, non-stripping daily wash designed to cleanse even the most sensitive skin with grace and care. Using sugar-derived surfactants like decy glucoside and sucrose cocoate, this formula lifts away impurities while supporting the skin’s moisture barrier: leaving your complexion soft, supple, and nurtured. Ideal as a standalone cleanse or the second step in a double-cleansing ritual, it gently purifies without disrupting the microbiome. Licorice root extract soothes inflammation, green tea delivers antioxidant-rich protection, and a touch of geranium essential oil offers natural microbial support without overwhelming reactive skin. Thoughtfully formulated to prevent moisture loss while calming and replenishing, this gentle gel is your go-to when skin needs simplicity, softness, and the kind of cleansing that nourishes as much as it clears.

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.
