WELCOME!
I am Melania, founder of Mel Ibiza, a natural cosmetics brand dedicated to the handmade manufacture of sustainable cosmetic products as an alternative to conventional cosmetics.
Mel Ibiza was born from environmental awareness, the belief in the benefits of natural products and the need to reduce the environmental impact of our time on the planet.
LOCAL
Our products are made with ingredients from local and organic crops, thus promoting local production and reducing our carbon footprint as much as possible.
Among them we can find organic olive oil from Joan Benet , Agua de mar de Ibiza and Formentera Agua de Mar , organic wine from Bodegas Can Rich , Aloe vera from Aloe bio de Formentera plants from the organic farms Tierra de Ibiza and Sànima .
ARTISAN
Our laboratory is located in the municipality of San Antonio, Ibiza, BALEARIC ISLANDS.
The manufacturing process is completely handmade and does not produce waste that is harmful to the environment at any time in the production chain.
There is no type of mechanization at any time during production. One by one, we make, wrap and label them manually, so each piece is unique and special.
NATURAL
We make natural cosmetics with the aim of reducing the consumption of energy resources and raw materials.
We are committed to minimalist cosmetics made from natural and organic ingredients and do not contemplate the use of polluting active ingredients that compromise our health and that of the planet in our formulas.
SUSTAINABLE
At Mel Ibiza we apply the "ZERO waste" movement, which consists of reducing, reusing and recycling as much as possible all the unnecessary consumption of plastic packaging and packaging.
In addition, 80% of our products are presented in a solid format, thus reducing the consumption of plastic packaging and unnecessary water.
Our products in liquid format are presented in reusable glass containers.

The origin of the ingredients used and the artisanal processes are subjected to rigorous control. The analysis of all batches in the laboratory guarantees the highest quality of the products and their safe use for the skin.

This form of production allows the essence and properties of a high-quality olive rich in vitamin E to be fully preserved, which provides excellent benefits to the skin.
