About Us
Our Heritage
Over 60 Years of Excellence MAVALA - who owes its name to the initials of its founder Madeleine van Landeghem - was established in 1958. Like many cosmeticians at that time, she developed a unique nail care product - a revolutionary nail hardener which penetrates the three layers of the nail plate to bond them together. This nail hardener has been copied many times since but has never been equalled. In fact, MAVALA Scientifique Nail Hardener is still one of our best selling products today.
