Meet Mari: Co-Founder of ChuntiBratz 🌸

Hi besties 💕 I’m Mariana AKA Mari, one of the co-founders of ChuntiBratz! I’m from Austin, Texas — born and raised — and my roots are Mexican, with family from Oaxaca. I’m definitely the more shy and quiet one of the group, but once I feel comfortable, I open up and get all bubbly and goofy 😅

Right now I’m in my self-reflection era — healing, creating, and learning to really enjoy who I am. I’ve been into skincare lately (like, obsessed), and I love anything that makes me feel calm, cozy, and inspired and go on biweekly Costco runs. I’m also the type to stay up late editing a reel with soft music and the right vibes 🧴🧠✨

When we started ChuntiBratz, we knew we wanted it to be more than just a blog. We wanted to build something full of love — something real, where we could share the things we care about: beauty, wellness, culture, advice, and just girl talk. Something that feels like a FaceTime with your closest homegirls.

Here’s a few random facts about me if you’re new here:

• I’m married (and my friends love to clown me for it lol)

• I wear glasses and I have a twin sister!

• I’m always working on myself — mentally, emotionally, and spiritually

• I’m currently in love with aesthetic reels, skin care routines, and slow mornings

• ChuntiBratz is something I really believe in… and I can’t wait to see where it goes

  
  

Thank you for being here and supporting us 🫶🏽 It means everything.

xoxo,

Mari

🧴 Mariana’s Skincare Ride or Dies

I’m not gatekeeping my glow, bestie — here’s what’s always on my shelf (and in my heart):

💧 PCA Skin Daily Cleansing Oil – melts makeup, gentle on the soul.

☀️ EltaMD UV Tinted SPF 46 – no white cast, just vibes. I mix it with a few doeps of foundation form

🥹 La Roche-Posay Lipikar Soothing Eczema Cream – Mine and my husbands favorite, always hydrating on good for eczema prone skin. Comparably hydrating to our other fav, PCA's creamy cleanser.

✨ Want me to drop a full skincare routine? Say less. Drop a 🧴 in the comments.
