M. Carya Receives Two Silver Awards in the 2026 Global Green Beauty Awards
PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Maria Acosta for M. Carya
CEDAR PARK, TX (OCTOBER 2026) — Texas skincare brand M. Carya has received two Silver Awards in the 2026 Global Green Beauty Awards for its Calendula & Pecan Facial Cleansing Oil.
The cleansing oil received Silver in both the “Best Natural Cleanser” and “Most Innovative “Green” Ingredient” categories. The 2026 Global Green Beauty Awards received more than 800 product entries from beauty brands around the world.
M. Carya was founded by formulator Maria Acosta and is based in Cedar Park, Texas. The brand develops skincare for dry, delicate and changing skin, with cold-pressed Texas pecan oil serving as a central ingredient across the collection.
The award-winning Calendula & Pecan Facial Cleansing Oil is formulated with cold-pressed pecan oil sourced from Oliver Pecan Company in San Saba, Texas. The rinseable oil cleanser was developed to remove makeup, sunscreen and daily residue without relying on a traditional foaming cleansing system.
“Pecan oil is where M. Carya began, so receiving recognition for both the cleanser and its ingredient story is especially meaningful,” said Acosta. “I wanted to build a skincare brand around an ingredient that has a real connection to Texas and formulate products specifically for skin that often needs a gentler approach as it changes.”
The Global Green Beauty Awards recognize products across natural, organic, vegan and sustainable beauty. Entries are evaluated on product performance and their alignment with green beauty principles.
M. Carya is a GO TEXAN Partner and Leaping Bunny certified. The brand’s products are formulated in Cedar Park, Texas.
