Product Review

I was recently sent Maya Water to try out and thought I would review it for you guys. Although it’s name can be misleading, it is not actually a drink, but rather, a revitalizing spray for your face.

I had never heard of Maya Water before, owing to the fact that it is a Norwegian company that is currently expanding into the United States. Maya Water is an “energizing Norwegian thermal spa water,” and boasts that it helps “to nourish, cleanse and apply moisture on bare skin, or over your make up.”

Sometimes all it takes to rejuvenate your mind, body, and soul is a little bit of water. I’m not talking about the kind you drink, but rather the kind that you delicately spritz on your face, when your complexion is feeling slightly parched. It is kind of like the spray of the ocean on your face as your leisurely lounge on the beach pre-dawn, without all of that salt.

It is kind of like the spray of the ocean on your face.

I am talking about Maya Water Facial Mist. Sourced from Norway (a lot of skincare products are coming from there lately, aren’t they?), these vitamin and mineral rich essences are the ticket to instant skin rejuvenation.

Maya Water Makes A Splash Stateside

When one of Beauty Counter’s intrepid reporters sought out the best primping products that Norway had to offer while on vacation there last year (true beauty sleuths never sleep), we were most intrigued by her discovery of Maya Water. Created by makeup artist and German expat Maya Gulbrandsen, the refreshing spray made of Norwegian thermal spa water is sourced from a spring called Skogshornkilden, which is over 300 feet below the surface of Skogshorn Mountain in Hemsedal, Norway. The mineral-rich liquid is great for revitalizing dry, tired skin while keeping you cool on a warm sunny day. Think of it as the Scandinavian answer to similar mists from Avene and Evian. This month, Gulbrandsen is crossing the pond—make that ponds (the North Sea is a doozy)—to officially launch  where her product lineup is available in cold, hard USD. An antioxidant-rich Organic White Tea spritz now joins the original Pure variety, and two more infusions will reportedly debut next month (the words “acai” and “berry” have been mentioned).

A hearty Velkommen from us, to you.
