Brand overview
Xixanthé is a Mexican cosmetic brand that was born in 2010 as a healthy and ecological alternative for skin and hair care. The brand was created from the need to find personal care products that were cruelty free and made with organic ingredients. The brand also uses Mexican ingredients sourced from small producers, to thereby help promote the local economy. In the design of its creations, Xixanthé is inspired by nature; the formulas are simple, made with pure and quality ingredients and cruelty-free. In 2019, Iliana, one of the co-founders of the brand, discovered Formula Botanica which helped the brand make the leap to a cosmetic line that stands out for its quality. The products combine cosmetic technology with the best of nature with formulations anchored by both science and traditional knowledge.
