CRéation
Mastel was imagined in San Francisco in 2020, and was born from the desire to create a cosmetics company that respects the skin and the environment while breaking down the rules of beauty.
An adventure that began at the University of Berkeley Botanical Garden 🌱.
It was at the sight of a very beautiful Ginkgo biloba that the idea of a range of cosmetics centered on the properties of this tree was born: an incredible longevity ensured by numerous antioxidants.

Mastel was founded with the belief that we can design more inclusive products with more transparent communication. We hope that Mastel will play a key role in this change in consumption patterns.
