Use less for great results

Commercial skin care creams and lotions and even some natural organic products are formulated with a high percentage of water and other cheap fillers.
Our natural skin care range contains no water or fillers, and is made with 100% pure, natural and organic ingredients full of powerful antioxidants, nutrients, vitamins, omega oils and regenerative essential oils so you only need to use a small amount.
If in doubt, use much, much less than you think you need and apply a little more if needed later. A suggested amount for a facial balm is enough to cover the tip of your finger.

Applying natural facial balms

Facial balms don't need to be hard, waxy or gritty! Our all-natural facial balms are creamy, soft and easy to apply.

Use the spatula provided (with the larger size balms) or a clean finger and use only a tiny amount of balm - enough to cover your fingertip or the edge of the spatula. To apply to the whole face, rub the balm onto your fingertips on both hands and smooth onto the face in upwards and outwards movements.
If applying to fine lines or around the eye area, dab gently using your middle or ring finger.

Simplify your skin care with multitasking natural products!

Each of our gorgeous natural skin care products has more than one use and we do not try to sell you products you do not need!

You don't have to empty your purses and fill your bathrooms and drawers with separate eye creams, night serums, neck, bust, hand and foot creams, anti-ageing wrinkle creams, anti-wrinkle creams, nail, lip and eyelash treatments, make-up removers, cleansers and cleansing lotions, milks, creams and potions. We do not offer systems, routines or solutions, just hard-working, effective & honest 100% natural products.

Suitable for all skin types, even oily skins

Regardless of your skin type you can use any one of our natural products. Each product has been expertly formulated with a blend of natural and organic ingredients to help support, nourish and balance your skin, regardless of your skin type. There are no harsh chemicals to irritate your skin and all the botanicals used are safe and gentle, even for sensitive skins.

Oils for oily skin?

Squeaky clean skin may feel good initially, but soon afterwards the skin will be coated in more oil (called sebum) which is produced by the skin itself. This is because harsh foaming agents, detergents and synthetic chemicals found in commercial face cleansers strip the skin of its natural sebum. The skin tries to balance itself by producing more sebum to protect the outer layers of the skin, resulting in an overproduction of sebum and therefore oily skin.

Using an oil-based cleanser will in fact de-stress the skin as it will not lose vital oils and not be forced to overcompensate by producing excess oil. 
Really Clever Cleansing Balm contains just the right ingredients to dissolve dirt, make-up and excess oil and balance the skin naturally.

Moisturisers containing a high proportion of water and no natural oils can actually be drying for the skin, which again causes the skin to try to balance itself by producing more oil. Facial creams and lotions that contain the wrong type of oils (i.e. mineral oils) coat and block the skin and can trap impurities.

Our Skin Boosting Serum and facial balms contain the right combination of natural and organic oils and botanicals, which are easily absorbed by the skin to balance, nourish and repair all skin types including oily skin.

Not all oils are equal

Not all oils are equal and some of the oils you may see in a supermarket are not always the best type or quality of oils to be putting on your face. Read here for more information on oils and mineral oil.

We use a wide variety of high-quality, 100% pure cold-pressed oils and butters and unadulterated essential oils from trusted specialist suppliers. When formulating products and selecting individual ingredients, each oil is carefully chosen for its particular benefits and how it interacts with other ingredients.

A great deal of thought, care and knowledge goes into creating each serum, balm and body butter so that each product can exceed your expectations!

Give facial moisturisers time

Beauty therapists and professional make-up artists recommend you allow at least 10 minutes for moisturisers to sink in before applying make-up. Although our natural moisturisers are oil-based they are easily absorbed by the skin provided you do not apply too much at once. Blot the skin gently with tissue to remove any excess if needed.

Hygiene and Safety

Spatulas are provided with all our face care products. Wash and dry the spatula after each use and keep in a clean place. You can also use a clean dry finger.

Put the lids back on the jars after each use. The special dark violet glass helps to protect the products so you do not need to keep these lovely jars and bottles in dark cupboards or drawers, but do keep them away from direct sunlight and heat.

It is always recommended to do a patch test when trying skin care products for the first time, especially if you have particularly sensitive and allergen-prone skin. If you experience a reaction such as redness, swelling or burning do not continue to use the product.

Maia Skin Care fully complies with the EU Cosmetics Regulations and all our products are assessed by a qualified independent safety assessor.

In the event of accidental ingestion do not panic as most of the cold-pressed oils used are food grade. However, essential oils are not approved for internal use and medical assistance should be sought.
