Meet the founder
Diana has always been passionate about cosmetics. The problem: she has allergic reactions to most of them. Little by little, she learns to read product labels in detail and becomes more committed to using natural or vegan cosmetics. To avoid any allergies, Diana puts on her chef's hat and learns to make skincare products in her kitchen.
It was finally in 2021 that the young woman decided to found her own brand of natural cosmetics. She meets new people who help her develop her skincare range around 2 main pillars: natural and transparency. Diana also wants to highlight her Latin American roots with ingredients inspired by Mexico and other Latin American countries. However, Melāhuac is entirely designed and made in France!

The brand works with suppliers in France and Europe. It uses recycled and recyclable glass bottles, as well as biodegradable packaging certified by the FSC (wood from legally managed forests with sustainable management).
