Our Ingredients
Every Ingredient Tells a Story | Natural Skincare Ingredients
At M. Carya, every element in our formulas has a purpose — and a story. From cold-pressed pecan oil grown in Texas orchards to the richly protective butters we source with care, each ingredient is chosen for what it brings to your skin and how it was brought into the world.
We prioritize natural, clean ingredients harvested from the United States whenever possible, and we are proud to be transparent about everything we use. If it’s in the formula, it’s there for a reason.
Because we believe skincare should be honest, intentional, and beautiful — for skin that tells a beautiful story.
