Mussvital is a Spanish pharmaceutical-grade skincare brand with over 40 years of experience in dermatological care. Founded in Barcelona, the brand is owned by the pharmaceutical company Peroxfarma SA, which launched the first Mussvital dermatological bath gel for the Spanish retail pharmacy market in 1985.

Brand History and Philosophy

Establishment:
Mussvital’s history began in 1986 (with initial product launches in 1985) focusing on high-quality pharmaceutical bath gels.

Mission:
The company specializes in the treatment and care of sensitive and eczema-prone (atopic) skin.

Core Values:
The brand emphasizes dermatological supervision, innovation, and environmental sustainability, recently reinventing its packaging and formulas to reduce environmental impact.

Cruelty-Free:
Mussvital does not test the efficacy or safety of its products on animals.

Core Product Lines

Mussvital offers a wide range of hygiene and skin care products categorized primarily into two main series:

Dermactive Range:
Targeted at specific skin conditions, including sensitive, dry, and atopic skin. These products often feature the Dermaprotect Barrier Complex, which uses active ingredients to restore and protect the skin’s lipid bilayer.

Essentials/Botanics Range:
Formulated with natural ingredients such as Aloe vera, argan, olive, almond, oat, and coconut. The Botanics line specifically uses high percentages (up to 93%) of natural origin ingredients.

Specialized Technologies

Mussvital products incorporate proprietary dermatological technologies:

DuraQuench™ IQ SA:
A technology designed to form a lipid bilayer similar to healthy skin to provide long-lasting moisturization.

SyriCalm™ CLR (PC):
A naturally derived product containing extracts (Phragmites Communis, Poria Cocos) to reduce inflammation and repair the skin barrier.

Soap-Free Formulations:
Many cleansers use large-molecule sulfate-free surfactants (like disodium laureth sulfosuccinate) that are too large to penetrate and irritate the skin.

Global Presence and Recognition
Mussvital is recognized as a benchmark for pharmaceutical quality in Spain, where it has historically been a top-selling brand for dermatological gels in the pharmacy channel. It has expanded internationally, winning awards such as the 2019 Watsons Health, Beauty and Wellness Award for Best New Sensitive Skin Brand in Singapore.

The brand’s catalog includes diverse products beyond body care, such as photoprotectors (sunscreens), anti-hair loss shampoos, deodorants for hyperhidrosis, and facial micellar water.
