Please be aware that our Vitamin E stick and Healing Balm contains Macadamia Nut oil.

Age-Stop Deluxe - Hydrator, A-Lixer and Aloe Eye Lift Gel contain high levels of Vitamin A which need to be avoided if you are trying to conceive, are pregnant or breastfeeding. As a precautionary measure, it is best to completely avoid these products.

Yes, our products are unisex and can be used on from babies through to the elderly due to their gentleness. Keeping in mind that there are products made with high actives specifically made for anti-ageing skincare programs and these are not recommended on young children.

Our products are also multi-use. What is generally good for your skin is good for your hair as well. So, our products are from top to toe use, meeting the needs of all individuals leading diverse and super active lifestyles. Marina's Ambrosia products ensures that all our products are non- harmful to health and non-harmful to the environment and encourage recycling of all our packaging as they are 100% recyclable.

Having been around since 2002, I have learnt that advertising does not work as well as word of mouth. Our success and growth has all been from loyal and happy customers who have kindly referred other people to us. Once they've tried our products they always come back. I like to refer to our customers as part of the Marina's Ambrosia family as it is our M.A family that keeps us operating and continually helping people with their personal care needs.

Marina's Ambrosia formulations free the skin of environmental and lifestyle pressures due to being gluten free, vegan, active and alive plant-based skin food. Our pricing won't burden the family budget as a little goes a long way, hence less is more. We aim to ensure our products are all ethically priced. Our consultations are free, and we even host free of charge what we call a "CLASS". It is through a Class that we meet new Marina's Ambrosia family members. We are also active on Social Medial platforms like Facebook and Instagram. We are honoured to welcome new fans and brand admirers.

A Class is what some businesses call a "Party". It can be a party! But it is more educational. The Class consists of a person hosting it and inviting their friends. We usually recommend about 10 people. I come and bring all the products that we have and talk about the products and tips and tricks on how to best get the most of your products. It's a great opportunity for everyone to get up close and personal with the products and speak with me directly.

A free mineral make over is given to anyone who is interested and a card with the colour match is given to each and every person having a makeover. A free skincare consultation is given and again all the information is provided on the card for the client to refer to should they wish to order from us later. If anyone is interested in making a purchase, they can, and the product is taken away with the customer at that very moment. There are no pushy sales or targets to meet. This is how we can bring Marina's Ambrosia straight to the public. We also provide the Host a gift valued over $100 just to say 'Thank you' regardless of any sales that we may or may not have made.

The aim of these Classes is to introduce to Marina's Ambrosia directly to the public and so that the word of mouth continues.

As a cosmetic manufacturer we have the capacity and the means to private label for brands that love our products and would like to stock the products themselves but without the conflict of interest due to having their own brand. We manufacture to a low quantity order of 1 ltr of any product and can increase the volume to whatever quantity is required. We are happy to package any product that is on order if the client is happy to use the packaging range that we have already in stock. For more information on this service please contact us.
