the power of mexican ingredients
At Ere Perez, we incorporate many Latin American traditions within our natural skincare and cosmetics.
"While the brand “Ere Perez” is Bondi-born, it’s been very much inspired by my childhood growing up in Mexico." - Ere Perez, Founder
Throughout our clean beauty range, we utilise the power of Mexican ingredients, where the richness of Hispanic heritage merges with the beauty of nature.
Let's explore these powerhouse botanicals:
Blue agave: Known in Mexico as "agave azul" or "blue gold," this powerful cactus offers incredible moisturising properties and ability to soften the skin.
Take Beetroot Cheek & Lip Tint, for example. It's unique blend of blue agave, vitamin E and antioxidants helps soothe and nourish skin.
Psst... it's also used to produce tequila and mezcal!
Cacahuananche: A fruit obtained from the Mexican tree known as the 'mother of cacao,' traditionally used to treat skin issues.
Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties make it a valuable ingredient in our Avocado Waterproof Mascara, making it safe for sensitive eyes, and helping to stimulate lash follicles to rebuild & protect hairs.
Corn: A fundamental staple in the Mexican diet; it is a rich source of essential nutrients for the skin.
What makes it the perfect ingredient for our Corn Setting Powder are its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties, which help calm irritated or sensitive skin.
Additionally, this gentle ingredients contains natural antioxidants like vitamin E, which help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals and considered non-comedogenic, meaning it's less likely to clog pores and cause skin irritation.
Did you know? Tortillas, used to make the famous quesadillas in Mexico, as well as tostadas and many ingredients in Mexican dishes, are made from corn.
Cacao: This gift from Latin American nature not only provides a delightful aroma but is also rich in antioxidants and helps to hydrate and soften the skin.
Our Vanilla Highlighters & Carrot Colour Pots contain cacao; studies suggest that the scent of cacao can help reduce stress and promote a sense of calm.
Avocado: also known as 'green gold' in Mexico! It is one of the go-to ingredients to accompany almost any Mexican dish.
Its richness in essential fatty acids nourish and hydrate the skin and hair. Additionally, it helps give hair a shiny and silky appearance, which is why it's a key ingredient in our Avocado Waterproof Mascara, Natural Almond Mascaras & Vanilla Highlighters.
Other Mexican ingredients in our formulations include, mamey, papaya, prickly pear, and vanilla. Mamey, papaya, and prickly pear are rich in vitamins and antioxidants that enhance skin health. Vanilla provides a soft and natural fragrance with a relaxing effect like cacao.
For generations, ingredients indigenous to Latin American countries have been used to elevate beauty and overall well-being. We've harnessed these natural components in our makeup and skincare line, not only as a tribute to our Hispanic heritage but also to provide high-quality, efficacious products that tap into the power of nature.
We welcome you to embrace our Hispanic heritage with our products, shining a spotlight on the beauty and advantages of traditional Mexican ingredients that have been cherished and adored for centuries.
