Key ingredients

The natural, science-backed ingredients behind our Skin Refining Routine:

Tocopherol

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is a skincare powerhouse. Its active form, alpha-tocopherol, works as a powerful antioxidant that helps protect, hydrate and soften your skin.

Protects from daily stress: its antioxidants neutralise the pollution and stress that dull skin.
Locks in moisture: as an oil-loving vitamin, it sits in skin's natural oils and helps hold moisture in.
Softens the look of fine lines: that same antioxidant action keeps skin looking radiant and nourished.

Cassia Angustifolia Seed Polysaccharide

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic Acid is our plant-based hydration hero, made from Cassia seed.

Long-lasting hydration: its plant polysaccharides hold up to 100 times their weight in water.
Plumper, smoother-looking skin: deep hydration helps soften the look of fine lines.
A botanical alternative to synthetic HA: the same plumping power, from a plant not a lab.

Lavandula Angustifolia Flower Oil

Lavender Essential Oil

Lavandula Angustifolia Flower Oil, commonly known as lavender oil, is derived from the flowers of the Lavandula angustifolia plant, which is a species of lavender. It has natural calming properties that can soothe the skin. It is often used to alleviate irritation and redness. It also has antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects.

Mimosa Tenuiflora Bark Extract

Tepezcohuite Bark Extract

Tepezcohuite is our hero ingredient, a Mexican bark long known as the "skin tree".

Strengthens your skin barrier: tannins gently tighten the skin's surface so it holds moisture better.
Supports natural renewal: arabinogalactans help skin renew and look fresher.
Protects from daily stress: antioxidants shield skin from pollution and the environment.

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract

Aloe Vera Leaf Extract

Aloe Vera is skincare's calming classic, a clear leaf gel used for thousands of years.

Soothes and calms sensitive skin: acemannan helps calm redness and irritation.
Long-lasting hydration: it draws water deep into the skin and holds it there.
Fresher, brighter-looking skin: aloe helps revive skin that looks dull.

Pachyrhisus Erosus Root Extract

Jícama Root Extract

Jícama extract, commonly known as jicama or Mexican yam bean, is a plant species in the legume family (Fabaceae). The root extract of Pachyrhizus erosus is used for its moisturizing and skin conditioning properties.

Persea Gratissima Oil

Avocado Oil

Avocado Oil is the everyday nourisher, a rich green oil pressed straight from the fruit.

Deeply nourishes dry skin: it is around 70% oleic acid, which sinks in rather than sitting on top.
Supports your skin barrier: beta-sitosterol helps your skin lose less moisture through the day.
Softens the look of fine lines: vitamins A, D and E work on texture and tone over time.

Opuntia Ficus-Indica Fruit Extract

Prickly Pear Fruit Extract

Prickly pear extract, derived from the fruit of the Opuntia ficus-indica plant, is a potent skincare ingredient. Rich in antioxidants like vitamins C and E, along with minerals and fatty acids, it offers numerous benefits for the skin. This extract helps nourish the skin, providing essential moisture and protecting against oxidative stress. Its antioxidant properties help combat signs of aging, while its moisturizing effects leave the skin feeling soft and hydrated.

Bougainvillea Glabra Flower Extract

Bugambilia Flower Extract

Bougainvillea glabra flower extract is a botanical extract derived from the flowers of the Bougainvillea glabra plant. It offers antioxidant and enzyme inhibition, beneficial for skin health. It shields the skin from oxidative damage. Furthermore it demonstrates cytotoxic effects against cancer cells, highlighting its relevance not only in skincare but also in healthcare.

7 steps for a healthy skin

The M-Beauty skincare routine

01

Cleanse

Cleanse

Daily

01

Cleansing removes sweat, oil, pollution and makeup so they don’t sit on your skin or clog your pores. With a clean surface, everything you apply afterwards can absorb properly and work as intended.
02

Exfoliate

Exfoliate

Weekly

02

Exfoliation lifts away dead skin cells that naturally build up. This helps keep pores clear, smooths rough texture and lets fresh, healthy skin come to the surface.
03

Mask

Mask

Weekly

03

Masks deliver a concentrated treatment that your daily routine can’t always give. Whether you need hydration, balance or clarity, a mask provides an intentional boost.
04

Tone

Tone

Daily

04

Toners rebalance the skin after cleansing, add a first layer of hydration and catch any residue left behind. This prepares the skin so serums and moisturisers can penetrate more effectively.
05

Treat

Treat

Daily

05

Serums focus on specific concerns, like dullness, breakouts or fine lines. They contain high levels of active ingredients that target what your skin needs most.
06

Moisturise

Moisturise

Daily

06

Moisturisers keep water in the skin and strengthen its protective barrier. This prevents dryness, sensitivity and helps maintain a balanced, healthy complexion.
07

Protect

Protect

Sun protection is the final and most essential step. UV rays cause most signs of premature ageing and pigmentation, even on cloudy days, so daily SPF keeps your skin healthy long-term.

Our packaging and packaging

Every gram counts:

Our containers are made of glass or aluminium, materials that are widely recycled, and we use plastic only where it is needed, such as for caps and droppers. Through our partnership with rePurpose Global, we fund the recovery of more than five times as much plastic waste as we place on the market.
Our boxes, inserts and shipping boxes are made of kraft paper and printed in a single colour.
Most of our products are made in Mexico, in a plant that generates more solar electricity than it uses.

FAQ

Find out more about our Skin Refining Routine

Is the Skin Refining Routine suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes. The toner and serum are both formulated with a short, skin-friendly ingredient list and have been thoroughly tested. They avoid common irritants and are very unlikely to cause reactions, which makes this routine a safe choice even for sensitive skin.

Can I use the toner and serum daily?

Yes, absolutely. They are made for everyday use. Used morning and evening, they hydrate and support the skin while staying gentle enough not to overwhelm it.

What is the difference between Day, Night, and Day & Night?

The difference is simply the final step. The Day routine finishes with the Sunshielding Cream to protect the skin from UV exposure. The Night routine finishes with the Radiating Cream to support recovery and moisture while you sleep. The Day & Night option includes both, so you use the sunscreen during the day and the Radiating Cream at night, with the same toner and serum as the base in both routines.

Are the products in this bundle dermatologically tested?

Yes. All Viva Maia products are dermatologically tested.

Bundles that include the Regenerating Serum and Hydrating Toner contain products that have been independently tested by Dermatest. Both the Regenerating Serum and the Hydrating Toner received the dermatological rating “very good”.

The Regenerating Serum was tested in a clinical application study under dermatological supervision. No relevant skin reactions, irritations, or allergic responses (contact dermatitis) were observed.

The Hydrating Toner was tested in a controlled patch test on participants with sensitive skin and showed no irritative reactions.

When used as intended, the products are considered very well tolerated and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. If your skin is extremely reactive, we recommend introducing the products gradually and increasing frequency once your skin tolerates them well.

Is it scientifically validated?

Yes. The ingredients in our Skin Refining Routine are supported by scientific research conducted in Mexico and Germany.
