About the products

Are your products only for pregnant and lactating women?

Of course not, there are many phases when hormones trigger skin imbalances. Regardless of where you’re at in your life, supporting your skin's self-regulating process is always a good idea. And to save you some questions from your bathroom visitors regarding pregnancy, we picture a pregnant woman only on the boxes, not the bottles ;)

Are your products suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, they are. Plus, we created our products with your baby’s tender skin in mind, so you can enjoy your skin-on-skin experiences and kiss away your little one with no worries.

Do your products contain parabens, sulphates, petrochemicals, silicones, PEG?

No, they contain none of those. Furthermore, we avoid fragrances (parfum), essential oils and alcohol, to minimize the risk of skin sensitization.

What do the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 on the packaging mean?

The skin is a complex organ with oil-loving/oil-hating, water-loving/water-hating layers, and also keeping out bigger-sized molecules. One of the biggest challenges is to get the right ingredients to the right depth of your skin so that they can have a visible impact without being blocked by the wrong layering. 

We put together a morning and evening routine with 4 complementary and multifunctional steps, for a beautiful skin complexion. Use the products in the recommended order, with some alterations in the morning and evening, and enjoy your mellow MUSES routine working as a whole.

Why do you use the dark packaging? It would be better to see how much cream I have left.

There’s only one kind of glass in the world that filters the sun’s rays perfectly, allowing the beneficial rays in, while keeping the harmful rays out. This is Miron biophotonic violet glass, a world class example for excellent protection. Its unique properties filter light and enable the use of less preservatives. Scientifically proven and patented, it has up to four times better storage quality than amber glass, plastic or aluminum packaging. It ensures that our products keep the highest quality throughout their shelf life, so you can enjoy them to the fullest. 

Eco-friendly. Made from natural raw materials. 100% recyclable. 

I’m curious about your products, are you providing testers?

Most skincare products need a full skin cycle of about 1 month to show the first results. We recommend ordering the discovery set that is created exactly for this purpose.

Where are your products made?

All mellow MUSES products are made in Germany.

What else do you do for the environment?

Let us highlight something that is rather unique in the skincare market.

Mindful of our resources on planet Earth, during the development phase, we pushed the boundaries and looked for ways to create cosmetic products without energy-intensive heating. We can tell you ‌this was complicated, because the easiest way of mixing water and oil - which are not holding together easily – is doing it at high temperature. This comes with its own consequences.

1. It needs time and energy to heat the content of those big mixing vessels full of ingredients up to 70-85 C degrees and then cool them again with continuous stirring.

2. It can also degrade heat sensitive actives and oils, or limit the dosage that would eventually result in less effective products. 

For these 2 reasons we put effort into optimizing our production process that consumes less energy. As a result, 4 of our products can be mixed at room temperature, and we use heating only to melt a very few percentages of our ingredients. 

The production process can be an underestimated aspect of sustainability, but it isn't the one to ignore. We are proud of being persistent about this one, even if this was a challenging part to resolve. 

What does natural-organic certification mean?

Our products are made from ingredients acceptable in natural cosmetics, biodegradable and environmentally sustainable. Additionally, the majority of our ingredients are organically farmed. The % of organic ingredients is available for each product on its page, under “INCI”.
