ABOUT MARIE VERONIQUE
Marie-Veronique Nadeau is a chemist who founded Marie Veronique in 2002. An inventor at heart who suffered from teenage acne, she was moved to create her own products when she could find nothing on the market that was clean and effective to address her rosacea. From there, she went on to develop a line for acne and was one of the first to formulate a non-nano zinc oxide sunscreen. She continues to lead the way towards safe yet effective skincare, determined to move an industry ensconced in hype into the realm of science. She is a trained esthetician, holds degrees in Math and Science, and is a former high school chemistry teacher. She collaborates with her daughter, Jay Nadeau, physicist and bio-medical engineer, to carefully choose each ingredient in her products to solve real skin issues and address the causes of aging at the source.
Our vision at Marie Veronique is to deliver superior, non-toxic skincare drawing on nature’s genius and the brain of science through innovative formulations. Achieving optimal skin health and healing real skin issues drive us to produce safe products that truly work.

HAs+B5+B3 are powerful compounds for chronic breakouts and refining skin. Decrease pore size for a smooth complexion.
This gel is an amazing refiner. It works strategically to strengthen the skin in a way that is supported and resilient against breakouts. Instead of stripping, drying and sterilizing the skin, client trials have shown a balance in oil production, a decrease in dry/inflammed skin from previous acne treatments, and decongested pores.
When used as a supplement to OTC acne medications the transition period was minimal with little to no negative adjustment period.
For her clients that do not have acne or excessive oil production, KRISTINA HOLEY recommends using this serum as an exfoliant (nightly 1-2x per week, or as a 20 minute gentle exfoliating mask). Clients reported a brightening effect, increase in product penetration and overall smooth texture.
Reduces congestion, controls oil, and refines the complexion. Safely and effectively combats either chronic acne or sporadic breakouts. Works naturally by supplying missing micronutrients rather than assaulting skin with anti-microbials that may compromise microbiome integrity.
Regulate sebum production to reduce severity of breakouts.
Reduce inflammation contributing to pimples, blackheads, redness and blotchiness.
Clear up stubborn congestion and refine skin texture.
VITAMIN B5 regulates sebum overproduction by boosting Co-enzyme A activity.
LACTIC ACID an alpha-hydroxy acid that speeds cell turnover rates and supports ceramide production.
WILLOW BARK a beta-hydroxy acid that clears clogged pores by dissolving skin protein from the outside in. Our most effective acne-fighter.
ACETIC ACID apple cider vinegar maintains healthy pH levels to discourage pathogenic overgrowth.
MARRUBIUM EXTRACT anti-inflammatory, soothes irritated skin.

Shake well. At night, apply a thin layer after cleansing and misting. Follow with Barrier Restore Serum. (Also apply Soothing B3 Serum at this time if you have inflammatory or dehydration concerns). Finish with one of our recommended oil blends, such as Treatment Oil or Rejuvenating Night Oil. If irritation develops discontinue use and consult a physician. Keep in a cool place out of direct sunlight. Use within 6 months of opening.
*Additional Information: Intensive Repair is an active, exfoliating, and clearing product and people should always begin using it sparingly. It is suggested to begin using Intensive Repair only 2x/week (as part of the PM regimen) and can increase frequency during times of oil increase or as a spot treatment (ie. some clients only use the 7 days before their period or when stressed). Also, you can use it on small sections of more problematic skin rather than over entire face (for example just in T zone, around the chin, or on the nose). Think about how various parts of your face feels, your sensitivity, your needs, etc (as with ALL other products). It is not advised to begin using it daily until you have given your skin a chance to adjust and see how it responds. As with all products, everyone will respond differently so take it slowly to start and also take into consideration all other products you are using at the same time and what their potential impact will be (retinoids, exfoliating cleansers, masks, toners, etc).
It is important that you follow the serum with the appropriate products intended to support the barrier layer of the skin, such as the Barrier Restore serum (and Soothing B3 Serum if you have inflammatory or dehydration concerns). Then to complete the regimen, follow with the appropriate oil on top; providing all the elements imperative to nourish and protect the skin.
This serum has saved my skin. I started to develop cystic adult acne a few months ago for the first time in my life. Not only were the breakouts consistent, but when they would finally clear up, I was always left with dark hyperpigmentation spots. I tried everything from lasers at my dermatologist, oral acne medication, topical prescription strength creams, facials, etc and nothing helped. Within a week of using this serum, my breakouts started to heal and hyperpigmentation started to fade. I have only had one small pimple pop up since I started using the product, and it stopped it dead in its tracks. While some of the initial scarring is still present, this serum has drastically sped up the process of fading those spots. For reference, I have very reactive, dry sensitive skin, and have experienced no irritation at all. My skin feels clear, calm and refined. This is my new holy grail product, and I will forever have it in my rotation.
Excellent product that improves texture of skin. I use it as a spot treatment over a few days to prevent hormonal acne and weekly to brighten skin and improve blackheads otherwise. It can be drying, but barrier restore serum and treatment oil are enough to counter that.
If I have a small pimple it does heal it super fast. It also kind of renew the skin and makes it more smooth. For blackheads I think it does take more time than what I‘m using it.
I’m breastfeeding, so I can’t do a retinol to exfoliate. But this has been a fantastic for exfoliating and resetting my skin when breaking out. The next morning after I’ve used it my skin looks entirely new.
Excellent product. For so many years I have struggled with blackheads on nose and congestion in chin area. Been using this product for over a year now and I’m so excited to see both areas cleared. I’m now using the vit c and retinol at night too. Thanks for your great products and videos.
