“It feels so good to put something so thoughtful and natural on your skin. MV Skintherapy products smell unbelievable and immediately made my skin feel nourished and vibrant. I’ve smeared them all over my daughters since they were little!” ~ Maggie Gyllenhaal
How does MV Skintherapy approach the challenge of creating products that work well for different age groups, from teenage to mature skin?
It’s all about clever formulations, simplicity and approaching skincare from a skin-health perspective. Healthy, radiant skin is a universal goal, and by focusing on addressing the root cause of skin concerns, supporting the skin’s microbiome and barrier integrity, all skin types and ages can achieve lasting radiance and resilience. Using fewer ingredients in higher concentrations, in products that are designed to be customised, MV achieves therapeutic outcomes that meet the diverse needs of all ages and skin types. This approach grew out of my work with clients facing sensitive skin challenges and in collaboration with complementary health practitioners.

The effectiveness of this approach quickly gained traction, becoming a trusted solution for families managing conditions from infant eczema to teen acne, and menopause too. Today, MV Skintherapy is a bathroom-cabinet essential for people at every stage of life, bridging the gap between beauty therapy and complementary medicine with products that empower the skin to be its healthiest, most resilient self. When skin is nourished in this way, it naturally becomes clear, refined, and radiant, no matter one’s age.

This same moisturiser can then be supercharged into a targeted treatment by blending it with one of our three Booster Oils, each packed with potent, plant-powered actives tailored to different skin needs. My goal was to create a logical, sustainable system, rather than launching new products for every trend. This system allows customers to effortlessly adjust their skincare to matc
