I bring in Mismo Skincare & Mineral Makeup from Australia as I couldn’t find a NZ product to back, that was natural but also active enough to make a visible difference to my customers skin & at a very affordable price!

To give you an idea of how potent Mismo is, they include a lot of Hylauronic Acid in many of their product range, but its not just a minimal percentage of the product like many of the large companies do, but Mismo uses Pharmaceutical grade Hylauronic Acid, that helps replenish moisture that is lost over the years to keep your skin plump & hydrated.
