Beauty Is No Longer About Aspiration. It's About Transformation.
A partnership proposal for Ulta Beauty
Mayan Wisdom Meets Modern Biocosmetic Science
Ki'olal is the world's first luxury biocosmetic line rooted in ancestral Mexican botanical knowledge, enhanced by bio-fermentation technology and adaptogenic formulations.
Jessica Treviño
After a severe skin crisis while living in China, Jessica discovered the profound connection between emotional wellbeing and skin health. She returned to her Mexican roots, studying traditional medicine with indigenous healers, and created Ki'olal — meaning 'beautiful' in Maya.
Not a Routine. A Multi-Sensory Experience.
Ki'olal's Skin Ceremonia engages all five senses — sight, scent, touch, sound, and texture — to shift the nervous system from stimulation to restoration. Curated soundscapes at 174 Hz and 285 Hz complete the journey.
Five Pillars of Formulation
Every Ki'olal product is built on five scientific pillars, powered by Mexican botanicals enhanced by modern bio-fermentation technology.
- Regeneration — Tepezcohuite bark, Cactus Stem Cells
- Deep Hydration — Prickly Pear Oil, Chayote Extract
- Antioxidant Shield — Cacao Polyphenols, Marigold
- Radiance — Bio-Fermented Pumpkin, Cotton Thistle
- Sensory Wellness — Copal, Vanilla, Damiana
All Five Pillars. One Brand.
Ki'olal qualifies for every pillar of Ulta's Conscious Beauty program — a distinction held by very few of the 600+ brands in the Ulta ecosystem.
- Clean Ingredients — No synthetic fragrances, PEGs, or parabens
- Cruelty-Free — Certified cruelty-free formulations
- Vegan — 100% plant-based, no animal derivatives
- Sustainable Packaging — Glass, bamboo, FSC paper, cactus leather
- Positive Impact — Maya, Zapotec & Chinanteco artisan collaborations
Meet Frida.
Age 25–40. Highly educated. Values intentionality over convenience. She currently spends $120–$300/month on wellness and clean beauty — but she's buying from DTC brands because she can't find this level of intentionality at retail.
