ABOUT MARIE VERONIQUE
Marie-Veronique Nadeau is a chemist who founded Marie Veronique in 2002. An inventor at heart who suffered from teenage acne, she was moved to create her own products when she could find nothing on the market that was clean and effective to address her rosacea. From there, she went on to develop a line for acne and was one of the first to formulate a non-nano zinc oxide sunscreen. She continues to lead the way towards safe yet effective skincare, determined to move an industry ensconced in hype into the realm of science. She is a trained esthetician, holds degrees in Math and Science, and is a former high school chemistry teacher. She collaborates with her daughter, Jay Nadeau, physicist and bio-medical engineer, to carefully choose each ingredient in her products to solve real skin issues and address the causes of aging at the source.
Our vision at Marie Veronique is to deliver superior, non-toxic skincare drawing on nature’s genius and the brain of science through innovative formulations. Achieving optimal skin health and healing real skin issues drive us to produce safe products that truly work.

BETA-GLUCAN + d-PANTHENOL penetrate lipid layer to rehydrate, rebalance microflora + skin pH.
This tonic hydrates via a unique process designed to balance the liquid content of skin cells with the lipids that surround them; and in so doing it provides necessary support for the stratum corneum to be self sufficient.
The stratum corneum contains multiple layers of flattened cells (corneocytes), encased in a thick coating of fat or lipids. Arranged into pairs of sheets (lamellar membranes), these lamellar lipid bi-layers fill spaces between the cells, providing a formidable barrier to the outflow of water from skin (transepidermal water loss).
Most water-based moisturizers/hydrators seep into the lamellar layers of the SC, leaching water from skin cells—potentially why conventional mists or toners can leave skin more dehydrated. Our biomimetic design has produced a one-of-a-kind tonic, composed of humectants with distinctive similarity to the skin’s lamellar structure. Since maintaining lamellar membrane integrity also protects the contents of the skin cells, the tonic not only promotes liquid/lipid balances, it also restores and improves overall barrier function.
Unique blend of humectants truly hydrate by maintaining moisture levels within the cellular/lamellar structures.
Imperative to prep top skin layers, allowing optimum permeation of nutrient-rich serums.
AHAs rebalance pH, pre/probiotics rebalance skin microbiome.
BETA GLUCAN excellent polysaccharide humectant that penetrates into the deeper lamellar structures of the SC.
d-PANTHENOL Pro-vitamin B5 promotes wound healing, helps restore damaged epithelium, reduces inflammation, improves skin hydration, reduces transepidermal water loss, improves skin roughness.
SODIUM HYALURONATE disaccharide occurring naturally in skin, a major component of the dermis, maintaining its moisture and elasticity. Holds up to 1000x its weight in water—a powerful humectant.
LICORICE ROOT Anti-inflammatory botanical, skin-lightening properties.
SELENIUM Works with vitamin E to safeguard cell membranes by inhibiting lipid peroxidation. Used to control Malassezia globose, a species of fungus that causes Tinea versicolor and hypopigmentation.

All the Marie Veronique products make me feel special - because I know am doing exactly what my skin needs. And when I use them - whether cleansing with the oil or applying a serum - I close my eyes, try to slow down and fully embrace the experience - my skin drinks in those nutrients like a tall glass of cold water on a hot day.
There is not one day I go without the Balancing Hypotonic - I start my morning skin care with it, calming yet refreshing, prepping my skin to soak up the morning serum and the Daily Protective Oil. Over the years, due to using these delicious products, I’ve been able to use less makeup and more MV!! Marie Veronique on my skin daily is way more valuable than heavy makeup and foundation and blush and powder - and my healthy glowing skin, on which I receive consistent compliments - is the undeniable proof! Thank you, MV!
Great product. I have used it many years
Love the way it makes my skin feel. I think it does help flowing serums to absorb.
Great product! 👍
I have never liked toners or tonics. I always felt like they were either too drying or they would leave a weird film on my skin. I also don’t like having to use any cotton balls or reusable cotton pads. It’s annoying to me. I just want to use my hands! Then I found this. I ordered the travel size first and fell in love! It makes my skin feel perfectly quenched, like I’m actually hydrating my skin. And my MV serums just glide over my skin post tonic. It feels lovely. I just use a small amount, pour it into my hand, and pat it all over my face. It also gives a nice glow which is a plus! I only use MV products on my skin and it’s the best my skin has ever looked in my 37 years of life!
