OUR BRANDS

From all over North America, Europe and beyond, we have sought out the best and most coveted brands  in Natural and Organic skin care, cosmetics, hair care, fragrance and lifestyle products, that are dedicated to delivering a natural alternative to synthetic ingredients, without compromising on performance and delivery. We carry a distinct collection ranging from an anthology of certified 100% organic ingredients to hand selected products with an all or highly natural bias. Our labels are transparent, honest and tied with premium ingredients for high effectiveness and great performance delivery. All which are paramount in our brand selection process. Every brand listed on our site has been hand selected and tested for their pure ingredients, ethical business practices and exceptional performance.

We have extremely demanding criteria when it comes to selecting products and each product has been chosen for their commitment to high quality and skin health. All our skincare and cosmetic brands are USDA, Soil Association certified, Ecocert approved or have a highly natural bias. We select brands that are manufactured as carbon neutral, assist developing countries, and that establish foundations to protect our environment. All of our products are cruelty free and of course, you will never find any Parabans, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), Petrochemicals and Phthalates and synthetic fragrances in any of the products we stock.

OUR STORY

The idea for MAX&MIA was born out of a passion to bring the best in safe, non toxic beauty and wellness brands to the mainstream Canadian market. We wholeheartedly believe that what we put onto our bodies is just as important as what we put into our bodies. We can all be part of the green movement and make healthier choices for our families and for ourselves, and by selecting products that are natural, safe, ethically sourced and sustainable is just one change that can make a significant impact over time. 

"We truly believe in our mission in educating and empowering consumers. Although there is no one thing that is going to change the world, we can individually, all do our part to improve the situation by being conscious of our actions and how it shapes the world around us".
