UNREFINED
HIBISCUS
Hibiscus Oil is obtained from the seeds of the Hibiscus sabdariffa in Morocco.
Hibiscus is a natural form of alpha-hydroxy acids (AHA) that oil gently exfoliate to slough away dead skin cells, encourage skin cell renewal, and help reduce hyperpigmentation, while increasing skin clarity.
It is also extremely high in vitamin C and the unique antioxidants found in hibiscus oil stimulate collagen and elastin production, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and prevents premature aging.
UNREFINED
CACAY NUT
Cacay nut oil is extracted from the nuts of caryodendron orinocense, and is considered a natural retinol due to its ultra high vitamin A and retinoic acid content, which helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and stimulates collagen production.
The high vitamin E content stimulates the renewal of cells and strengthens elasticity, while supporting skin barrier and balancing oil production. It also plays a role in improving your skin texture by helping to reduce bumps and roughness.
Additionally, Cacay oil is known to penetrate deeper into the dermis than other carrier oils, which support its ability to regenerate skin cells and stimulate collagen production.
PATENTED
WHITE LUPIN
STUNN’s white lupin (lupinus albas) extract is derived from the white lupin seed coatings through a patented extraction process.
White lupin contains a unique blend of peptides that prevent and reduce the breakdown of collagen and elastin, which aids in reducing the depth and appearance of wrinkles.
The active extract of white lupin used in STUNN’s formulation effectively strengthens elasticity, while promoting the production of collagen and elastin. A clinical study of the extract showed a 92% increase in skin’s firmness and a 72% reduction in the sagging of the facial contour is reduced by 72% after 43 days.

Your skin microbiome, also referred to as skin microbiota or skin flora, is an ecosystem of bacteria on the skin’s surface. It’s made up of trillions of microbiota which have a symbiotic relationship with the skin barrier.
When both your microbiome and your barrier are healthy they work together to maintain your skin’s pH delicate balance, protect against moisture loss, safeguard against environmental damage, and play a role in preventing premature aging.
However these critical functions can become compromised when there’s an excess of foreign bacteria invading the good bacteria, or your barrier is continuously stripped from harsh skincare products and environmental factors.
The optimal way to protect your skin microbiome is to choose skincare products that work with your microbiome, rather than against it, but gently cleansing the skin without stripping your barrier or throwing off your pH.
The skin barrier, also known as the “moisture barrier” or “acid mantle,” is the outermost layer of your epidermis. The skin barrier’s primary function is to keep the ‘good stuff’ such as moisture in, and the ‘bad stuff’ as free radicals out.
A healthy barrier protects the body from toxins such as pollution, chemicals, and UV rays, and maintains moisture by preventing transepidermal water loss.
An unhealthy barrier is unable to perform either of those functions and leaves your skin inflamed, dehydrated, and vulnerable to free radical damage, which can result in weakened skin cells, collagen degradation, deepening lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation and extremely dry skin.
The key to protecting your barrier and maintaining its health is selecting a gentle and effective oil cleanser to thoroughly cleanse your skin of dirt, makeup, pollution, and other foreign bacteria, while protecting the natural ceramides and oils that coat the skin’s barrier, without stripping or disrupting your skin’s microbiome.
