About us

How we got started

MISMO is an Australian owned company that has been developing and manufacturing an effective and affordable range of natural skin care, pain management and exercise recovery products since 2002. 

The company was founded by Irene McDonald who was inspired to produce the first nutritional skincare range based around MSM due to her very personal journey. 

On the family dairy farm in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, Irene was first introduced to MSM by a neighbour who had long been using MSM for animal health and wellbeing. Research then led to understanding the broader benefits of MSM for skin health and Irene began developing the MISMO range of natural, non-irritating skin care products.  In part this was to help with a serious case of Rosacea and the fast relief that skincare formulations containing MSM were able to provide.

Over the last 20 years the MISMO skin care range has continued to expand, and formulations have been fine-tuned as research has evolved and new active ingredients have become available and proven effective.  MISMO MSM and a range of magnesium products complement the skin care range.

MISMO has grown through word-of-mouth from a loyal group of customers and has now shipped over 100,000 orders across Australia and around the world.

We don't pay influencers or outsource marketing. 

Our commitment to you

Our philosophy is to take the very best of laboratory-synthesised ingredients and the very best naturally-derived ingredients and combine the two in synergy to create highly effective, evidence-based, ethical skincare.

MISMO skincare products are all made in Queensland and contain natural oils, organic aloe vera, and MSM. We DO NOT use propylene glycol, parabens, mineral oils, alcohol, sodium laurel sulphate, micro-beads or colouring. Fragrance (where applicable) is achieved by blending hypo-allergenic aromas.

The long-term health of your skin and health is always our top priority.

Our commitment to our planet and sustainability

We love and respect our environment and are mindful of the impact we have on that environment. We continue to look for more sustainable ways of working and try to source as much of our raw materials and packaging supplies from within Australia and favour local suppliers wherever possible.

Most of our packaging is made from recyclable or renewable materials; we also use plant-based inks, biodegradable wrapping paper, and the mail sachets we use are made from 100% recyclable material.

We are continually seeking ways in which we can lighten our carbon footprint. If you have any suggestions, email us at support@mismo.com.au

Magnesium Glycinate

Magnesium Glycinate

Haven't had any leg cramps at night after my gym sessions and I get a good sleep at night 👍

Magnesium Chloride
Michael Bloodworth
Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate flakes

I found them to be pure as stated specifications. The Flakes took longer to dissolve than small crystals that I was accustomed to in order to make a saturated solution. Other than that I can recommend Mismo and this product.

The Basic Trial Bundle

Enjoyed using each product. Particularly loved the gentleness of the exfoliator. They were all new to me and I have a shopping list in order of necessity. They were all true to name.

Nice product. Would buy again but I prefer the sunscreen for day use

Nice product. Would buy again but I prefer the sunscreen for day use. Love the rejuve serum too

Mismo products are very good.

I’m planning to buy the full size anti-wrinkle cream. I love your A-C-E serum (gift from my granddaughter) and cleansing milk, so easy. I’m a fan and recently gave a friend a Mismo gift card. Regards, Trish Semple.

Love this Primer!!

I tried a purchased sample first and found it went on my skin beautifully. Have now purchased the larger size and am loving it.

Squeaky Clean and Fresh

I love the Active Face Cleanser for that first thing morning face cleanse. Gentle yet thorough and rinses off in the shower. I alternate with Natural Cleansing Milk at night for taking off makeup and the days grim and refresh with Active Face Cleanser in the morning. My skin’s loving it!

Impressive

As we grow less younger and trying to remain active I struggled with weariness in my joints after exercise so tried Mismo MSM. I have certainly noticed changes after a few months of using it. Also my nails have grown without splitting even though this process has taken a few months.

Hole in the bottle

I haven’t been able to try it yet, the bottle I received had a hole in the botttom. I’m finishing my old bottle of magnesium oil from another company before I can try it.

Great cleanser!

The only thing that has helped my skin clear up.

Mismo MSM the Miracle Cure for hip pain

I topped up my stock of Mismo MSM a month ago.
As a regular and quite competitive runner, i experienced severe hip pain in my joints over 2 years ago and took a 10 month physiotherapy course of treatment to help alleviate the pain. Then my girlfriend recommended MSM to me and i've never looked back!! Taken together with the Magnesium Chloride crystals every morning, my body has never felt better. After 18 months on the MSM/Magnesium combo i have no more aches or pains in my hip area and have been running the fastest 5km times of my life. I've set 5 new PB's in the last 3 months and came first in the Age 50-59 group at the recent Eve 5km Race day in August!! Winner, Winner, all thanks to Mismo MSM, i'm your No.1 fan. Totally impressed. Thanks Paul.

Loose mineral foundation powder

This is the only product I’ve ever found that gives me the perfect coverage to hide my facial excema. Even when I have a big flare up the mineral powder goes on smoothly without any reaction & gives me the confidence to go out in public.

Easy to use

Only been using for a week on some overworked muscles and I'm thinking it is helping as had relieved my back pain & knee pain, so will definately keep using.
Absorbs better then a stray on magnesium (another brand) I have tried in the past that was too greasy.
Yes I think it is helping and nice to use.

New Age Moistureser

I have found this moisturiser the best for my skin. Have used a lot of different brands but they do not measure up to this.
