    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.

    A corrective reset to balance a disrupted microbiome with BIOFILM INHIBITORS to boost natural defenses, reduce symptoms and support skin healing.

    Rescue Tonic is formulated to support a healthy skin microbiome and provide targeted support for symptomatic skin, including conditions like eczema, dermatitis, rosacea, and acne. It provides optimal pH levels, hydration, and balances the microbiome—all essential for calm, resilient, symptom-free skin. With consistent use, you’re not just masking symptoms; you’re investing in restoring balance at the root level so your skin can truly move forward.

    By fostering an environment that encourages the growth of beneficial bacteria, this tonic helps maintain the skin's natural defenses, keeping harmful pathogens in check. When the skin’s pH and moisture levels are properly balanced, it supports healthy flora, which in turn helps reduce symptoms like breakouts and perioral dermatitis caused by pathogenic over-colonization.

    Rescue Tonic not only helps eliminate imbalances but also restores a robust and resilient skin barrier and microbiome, supporting the complete resolution of chronic and unwanted skin conditions.

    For more information on Rescue Tonic read the blog post.

    Explaining Biofilms

    Biofilms are protective shields formed by pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus. Their formation can contribute to chronic or recurring skin issues, as these pathogens thrive in the biofilm environment and can resist standard treatments. Acne, dermatitis, and chronic inflammation often return following a cessation of symptoms, as pathogens can protect and hide themselves in these biofilms, giving off the appearance of being resolved while the root imbalance still remains. 

    Formulated with powerful ingredients like Xylitol and Silymarin, Rescue Tonic effectively breaks down and prevents the formation of biofilms. While most products indiscriminately target bacteria, this tonic focuses on disrupting the biofilms that allow harmful bacteria to thrive, while antifungal and antimicrobial ingredients like Neem, and Manuka Oil work synergistically to combat pathogens while preserving the skin's natural balance.

    Learn more about how Rescue Tonic effectively targets biofilms on the blog.

      Maybe Not for Sensitive Skin

      I really wanted to love this product. Unfortunately, my face would feel like it was burning when I used this. I thought maybe my skin would eventually get used to it, but it burned every time I used it.

      I have sensitive skin that's rosacea prone (type 1), so maybe this tonic isn't for people like me.

      Rosacea

      Wanted to love it, but after ten days of no rosacea flare ups, they returned with a vengeance.

      Miraculous

      I had an itchy and inflamed painful rash at the corners of my eyes, nose, and mouth after using some random face wipes to clean my face while camping. Everything I put on my face made it worse for the next two months. I finally tried the Rescue Tonic and within a week my face was better! It felt like a miracle.
