16 years ago Tarj Mavi set out on a mission to create safe and effective skincare solutions after experiencing sensitivity and pigmentation issues with no natural products available on the market at that time. Drawing on her experience as a scientist and researcher, Tarj began to combine her in depth knowledge of safety and efficacy of natural bio-active ingredients to create formulas that were completely pure, and actually worked!
While LAMAV has grown and evolved, our values and vision remains the same - embracing a holistic approach to health and beauty to inspire women to elevate their daily routine using self-care meets skincare products designed to rejuvenate and restore balance to the skin.
