Marie Veronique Advanced Skincare - Outstanding Face Oils & Serums that Turn Back the Clock



One of the best things you can do for your skin is to use oils and serums to nourish, repair and regenerate. For those of you who don't like feeling oily or greasy, don't worry - somehow they aren't either of those things these days.

Especially when you've got the exemplary Marie Veronique Advanced Skincare at your side. Using natural, high quality ingredients that go to work on your problem areas right away and deliver a dose of aromatherapy at the same time, these products are a mix of beauty and scientific research - Founder Marie Veronique Nadeau started the business ten years ago and in addition to holding an esthetics license from Paris Beauty College, she's got a BS in Math and Chemistry, and works with her daughter, Jay Nadeau, a physicist and bio-medical engineer, to "carefully choose each ingredient in her products to address the causes of aging at the source. "

The combination is what makes these products stand out from the crowd. I mean, I don't understand the lingo - "Aminoguanadine prevents glycation and protein cross-linking," and "L-carnosine fights aging processes, such as mitochondrial dysfunction and telomere shortening," but I like that these products can fight the signs of aging using scientific findings while using natural oils and extracts., such as using rosehip seed oil as a natural retinol.

And as an added bonus, the essential oils used in the carefully curated formulations give the products wonderful fragrances so while your skin is getting a complete makeover, ingredients such as Rosa damascene (rose), Cistus ladanifer (cistus), and Boswellia carterii (frankincense) swirl around you infusing you with their soft scents.

Here are just a few reasons why Marie Veronique Advanced Skincare is all that and more:


This is the first beauty product in ten years of testing skincare items that I've come across that instructs you to put it on your eyelids.

Of course! They need the love as much as those crow's feet at the edges of your peepers. And this exemplary serum works on strengthening that skin so that it doesn't dry, droop or wrinkle. So just watch as your lid lifts and firms and don't forget to apply it beneath your eyes to finally rid you of those dark circles (because let's face it, your bedtime isn't getting any earlier).

Boasting a green & white tea infusion, olive and vitamin E oils, non-GMO sunflower lecithin, and neroli and lavender, you get an intense treatment on those lovely lids of yours which feels as gentle as a feather. Win-win.


I know a lot of women swear by mists, keeping them in their clutches and desk drawers. I've never really caught on until now, and now I'm hooked.

Maybe it's because it's not just a refresher in the middle of the day, but is a daily probiotic spray containing a complex of 34 probiotic live strains that relieves dry, flaky skin and calms sensitive, easily irritated or rosacea-prone skin. 

It's actually quite hydrating (thanks coconut water - it also keeps acne at bay) and soothing (green tea), and the lavender scent can make even the most hectic work day easier.

So mist your face and neck first thing in the morning and then whenever you feel you and your skin needs a lift.


This is what I was talking about - an oil that isn't oily. I don't understand it, but I love it.

There are two versions - Vegan and Extra Healing (which contains emu oil). Whichever you choose, your skin is delivereda balanced omega-6s/omega-3s blend that fights wrinkles and stops the breakdown of collagen. The key ingredients are so delicious sounding, you'll be tempted to lick the bottle (please don't) - seed oils of pomegranate, tomato, broccoli, kiwi, red raspberry, chia, sesame, olive and algae.

You put then on right after the mist - normal skin: 4-6 drops, dry skin 8-10 drops, very dry and dehydrated or damaged skin: up to 20 drops.

The bright orange oil goes on dry - wow - and penetrates the dermis right away. In mere days you'll notice those wrinkles of yours filling in. Why look your age if you don't have to?


Don't stop your skincare routine there. After applying the oil, put this gorgeous scented vitamin C and E-rich serum on. Your skin will be protected from the elements and  add a hit of radiance to that mug of yours.

Fascinating ingredients such as radish root ferment, aspen, bark extract and lycopene (found in tomatoes) are a part of this magically blend that is sure to bring you 'round to the whole serum movement if you aren't a part of it already.


I don't think I've ever seen the words "gentle" and "retinol" together before, but leave it to Marie and Jay to revolutionize yet another way of doing things.

Using retinoids is one of the most important things you can do to keep your skin looking youthful. 

This serum is seriously silky,  and again, not a titch of oiliness to be found. This serious multi-tasker is to be used only at night, so while you're getting shut eye, this sensational serum puts your collagen production into motion, turning over your cells and working on those pores of yours. And you can forget about breakouts now too. The fragrance is so soothing, you'll drift off to sleep easier and more quickly than you have in months.

And then you get to wake up to a younger you. If that isn't complete bliss, I don't know what is.
So shop Marie Veronique Advanced now. It's one of the best things you'll ever do for you and your skin.
