THE COMPANY
Mary Van founded Demaur Cosmetics in 1987 as an industry solution. Having worked as a makeup artist in the late 70’s, Mary struggled with making the bold frosted colors work for print and media. Armed with determination and an innate sense of color and composition, Mary created a cosmetic line specifically designed for makeup artists frustrated by the same issues. In the late 90’s she introduced mineral makeup to the public through private label and custom blend. It offered the best of both worlds…it blended beautifully to match all skin tones and was healthy for the skin.
Their generosity and environmental stewardship is evident as a company. Extra products are donated to support the local women’s shelter, which provide services to victims of domestic violence. Demaur Cosmetics has also adopted several ecological solutions to environmental problems facing today’s beauty industry. A partial list of some of the programs they have implemented are:
- wind powered electricity
- four-day workweek
- recycling program for employees and families
- biodegradable cornstarch peanuts
- printed materials on recycled paper
- ride share incentives
- work from home rotation
Demaur Cosmetics manufactures and distributes it’s own product in a 20,000 square foot building located in the heart of Texas. Through continuous growth, the expansion covers such countries as North America, Europe and Asia.
