Discover Your
Sacred Skin Ritual
Answer 8 expert-guided questions — the same questions a professional aesthetician would ask — and receive a personalised ISUN ritual built precisely for your skin.
Three steps to your perfect ritual
Curated by aestheticians to accurately map your skin type, concerns, and lifestyle.
Instantly learn your skin type, key concerns, and what your skin needs most.
A bespoke morning and evening routine, matched to your profile from ISUN's organic collection.
How does your skin feel approximately 30 minutes after cleansing — with no products applied?
This is the single most diagnostic question an aesthetician uses. Observing your "naked skin" after washing reveals your true sebaceous activity, independent of weather or products.
Looking closely in natural light — how would you describe your pore size?
Pore size is clinically correlated with sebum production. Enlarged pores indicate higher sebaceous gland activity; barely-visible pores often signal drier, thinner skin with a weaker lipid barrier.
How does your skin typically react to new products, fragrances, or environmental changes?
Skin sensitivity is a separate axis from skin type. Dermatologists classify it by frequency of stinging, burning or redness — not by subjective feeling alone. This shapes which actives and formulations are safe for you.
Which of the following are active concerns for you right now?
Select up to 3. In a professional consultation, the aesthetician prioritises concerns in clinical order: inflammatory conditions first, then pigmentation, then anti-ageing.
How does your skin typically respond to sun exposure?
The Fitzpatrick Scale (developed at Harvard Medical School) classifies skin by its UV response. This determines antioxidant needs, photo-ageing risk, and the type of UV protection most beneficial for you.
Which stage best reflects your skin's life right now?
Hormonal milestones profoundly alter sebum production, barrier function, and collagen density. A dermatologist always establishes life stage before prescribing actives — it changes which ingredients are appropriate.
Which of these lifestyle factors are currently part of your daily reality?
External stressors measurably alter skin physiology. Cortisol elevates sebum; blue light accelerates oxidative stress; poor sleep reduces nocturnal repair cycles. Select all that apply.
How would you describe your current relationship with skincare?
Routine complexity must match lifestyle. A five-step routine for a minimalist creates friction and poor compliance — the most efficacious routine is one that will actually be followed.
Your Ritual Has Been Revealed
Your personalised ISUN ritual is below.
Combination · Transitioning barrier. Sebum regulation is the primary intervention target.
Transepidermal water loss (TEWL) is elevated in dry zones. Antioxidant reserves are depleted by UV and screen exposure.
1. Strengthen lipid barrier · 2. Neutralise oxidative stress · 3. Stimulate collagen synthesis
Cold-pressed botanicals like jojoba and rosehip — the backbone of ISUN's formulations — have been shown in peer-reviewed studies to modulate PPARγ pathways without disrupting the skin's commensal microbiome, unlike synthetic alternatives.
Step 1
Oil-cleansing dissolves sebum without disrupting your skin's acid mantle (pH 4.5–5.5). Phyto-botanical blend replenishes lipids as it cleanses.
Step 2
Applying a hydrosol mist before serum increases absorption. Mineral-rich Ormus water prepares skin for subsequent actives.
Step 3
Cold-pressed plant stem cells and botanical actives stimulate fibroblast activity and collagen I synthesis — the brand's most celebrated formula.
Step 4
Ceramide-like plant lipids occlude TEWL while vitamins C & E in their natural form quench free-radical cascades triggered by UV and environmental stressors.
Step 5
Emerald plant distillates rich in chlorophyll-adjacent polyphenols neutralise HEV (blue light) and UV oxidative stress.
Step 6
The periorbital zone has 30% less sebaceous activity — it dehydrates fastest. Plant peptides and lipids reinforce the orbital barrier.
