Vivéa Ingredient & Safety Standards

We are committed to thoughtful, responsible formulations. Vivéa ingredients were chosen with care, being transparent about what goes into each product and why, and supporting ethical, low-waste practices. It’s our promise to create skincare that feels good, works well, and respects both your skin and the world around you.

We ensure every formula in the products is safe, gentle, and effective. Vivéa ingredients have been dermatologically tested & approved.

Vivéa fragrances are fully IFRA-compliant and created using only safe, approved materials. They contain no banned phthalates, no outdated or problematic compounds, and no endocrine-disrupting chemicals. Our scents are carefully formulated to be gentle and suitable for sensitive skin—providing a refined, luxurious aroma without compromising on safety or skin comfort.

Our formulations are crafted without animal-derived ingredients and created with a commitment to kindness, responsibility, and mindful beauty.

Vivéa products don't contain traditional peptides. Instead, we use a carefully selected range of science-backed actives/cutting-edge biotech actives and natural ingredients that deliver similar anti-ageing and skin-firming benefits.

Our formulations feature:

  • Unique Short-Chain Ceramides that stimulate cell communication, improving skin density and reducing wrinkles
  • Ganoderma Lucidum (Reishi Mushroom) extract that strengthens the dermis and epidermis, increasing elasticity
  • Hydrolysed Hyaluronic Acid for plumping and smoothing fine lines
  • Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) for firming and reducing fine lines

These ingredients work together to lift, firm, and sculpt facial contours—giving you that rejuvenated, youthful look without peptides.

Additionally our Night Gel Cream has cutting-edge multipurpose active that provides support for the skin's natural circadian rhythm, blue light protection, and preserves the natural melatonin production cycle. Superior nighttime rejuvenation.

Formulated to be compatible with the skin’s natural pH. While our waterless balm does not require pH measurement (because it's 100% natural), all other formulations are carefully adjusted to maintain skin harmony and minimise irritation.

Free from drying forms of alcohol such as ethanol, ensuring our formulas stay gentle, hydrating, and supportive for sensitive, changing skin.

We are committed to providing gentle, skin-compatible care ideal for sensitive, changing skin while staying aligned with responsible, modern formulation standards.

Formulated with clinically studied, patented ingredients chosen for their proven effectiveness for mature skin.

Formulated without any ingredients that slowly release formaldehyde over time to control microbial growth. We avoid these types of chemicals to ensure our skincare stays safe and without hidden irritants.

Vivéa delivers deep, lasting hydration while locking in moisture and strengthening the skin’s natural barrier helping skin stay nourished.

Vivéa is formulated to offer a cooling, soothing feel while helping reduce visible redness—supporting skin that can become more reactive or flushed.

Vivéa’s textures are designed to absorb quickly into the skin without leaving a heavy or greasy feel.

Made locally in New Zealand formulated using ethically sourced ingredients, reflecting our commitment to responsible production and quality skincare.
