Featured Business: Ma Mi Natural Skincare

1) Please tell us a little about your company.

I started Ma Mi Skin Care because I wanted a natural skin care product once I became a mom and was much more aware of chemicals and all the toxic ingredients in many of the things on the store shelves. I was not impressed with the options for natural products that I tried, they were either very expensive or didn't work well.

I decided that we could do it better and make the products more affordable considering moms many times do not have a ton of disposable income on hand. My family has been in the skin care manufacturing business for the last thirty years so I had a lot of exposure to the industry and I had learned a lot over the years. I started the company with my husband and brother and we did a ton of ingredient research before we chose our product line to ensure we were offering the highest quality ingredients that had the most anti-aging ingredients without any fillers, parabens or known carcinogens.

I am very proud of our entire Ma Mi product line, I use it myself and I would recommend it anyone.

2) What do you like most about your products?

Our Ma Mi products are natural with high quality active ingredients that have been shown to have incredible anti-aging properties. They do not have fragrances or additives and they go on feeling clean and light. We have a complete daily regimen for normal to oily skin and one for normal to dry skin along with specialty products so we have something for everyone. Our line is quite simple with easy to use pumps for moms who do not have a lot of time and sometimes do not even have two hands to open and close caps.

3) What sparked your interest in the beauty/skin care industry?

I have been exposed to the industry for years since my family has been a skin care product manufacturer almost my whole life. When I became pregnant with my son, I really became aware of what I was eating and putting on the outside of my body. I tried a lot of products and decided that it could be done better and that was the beginning of Ma Mi Skin Care.

4) What are the inspirations behind your work?

Pure, clean, healthy, anti-aging ingredients, high amounts of active ingredients, affordable no fillers, no toxins!!! Our business is constantly trying to be as green as possible using recylable bottles and limiting the amount of packaging we use.

We give back a percentage of our profits to a wonderful organization,The Thusanani Childrens Foundation in South Africa that provides occupational therapy to orphans in South Africa and educates their caregivers.
