Marie Veronique EDU: Saltwater | An At Home Bath You Make Yourself
While making high quality skincare products that deliver the essential micronutrients for skin health is complicated, some are appropriately DIY. Bath salts fall into this category. Taking a warm bath with salts is a smart way to improve circulation, which benefits all internal organs and pathways of elimination — especially the skin! In fact, boosting your circulation via exercise, proper hydration, eating well, and yes, taking a warm bath, has a positive effect on your overall systemic health.

Happy World Microbiome Day
Today is World Microbiome Day, and out of all the commercial holidays that pop up, this is one we can get behind. While we’ve written volumes on how the microbiome influences the skin, there’s so much more that it has to teach us. In lieu of throwing a rager or exchanging gifts, co-founder Kristy Moore-Jeffress asked Marie Veronique Nadeau if there was anything she’d like to say to mark this occasion. Here’s what resulted.
Skin During Pregnancy and Postpartum: What’s Going On?
Pregnancy and postpartum is a time of profound change within the body, and that certainly is true for skin function. Changes during this time are common, whether skin becomes symptomatic for the first time, underlying skin symptoms surface, or, more positively, the coveted ‘pregnancy glow’ reveals itself. We often hear from clients that they’re unsure, confused, and sometimes even fearful of skin symptoms arising during pregnancy and postpartum, especially if they’ve had issues in the past. We want to help alleviate that fear.
Rethinking Exfoliation: the Most Misunderstood Practice in Skincare
