IS YOUR SKIN
KINDA F*CKED?
Finally — a serum with
ZERO synthetic BS…
That Actually Works.
Why most 'natural' skincare actually makes skin worse ↓
As I neared 40, I started seeing it.
My skin looked drier, duller —
and fine lines were showing up fast.
So I did what everyone does...
store-bought “natural” serums,
creams,
viral trends.
and somehow...
they made my skin worse.
That’s when I went full obsessive mode
& did a multi-year deep-dive
into the real science of skin aging
and natural compounds.
And what I uncovered shocked me.
SHOCKING FACTS I DISCOVERED FROM ACTUAL DATA
MOST “NATURAL” CREAMS CONTAIN HARMFUL
HIDDEN PRESERVATIVES
Preservatives and solvents disrupt the microbiome — and they’re often NOT LISTED as ingredients!
CREAMS ARE BASICALLY WATER
OFTEN NOT LABELED AS “WATER”
80–90% water is the norm. (Yet we pay luxury prices).
THERE’S A SPECIFIC NATURAL COMPOUND THAT
STOPS WRINKLE-CAUSING ENZYMES
Wrinkles aren't inevitable. We can powerfully fight back. (But most natural skincare formulators use low-efficacy ingredients).

How do you look 25 when you’re 43?!
“Your skin looks AMAZING… WHAT’S YOUR SECRET?!”
I get comments like these...constantly.
People are genuinely shocked when they find out I’m 43.
But that wasn’t always the case...
As I neared age 40, I began noticing that my once-youthful skin started looking different — and not in a good way.
It looked tired, dull, and dry.
Living in a cold climate made it worse. Dry winter heat sucked every ounce of hydration from my skin, leaving it drier than the Sahara desert at high noon.
Fine lines began popping out… like cracks in drought-stricken earth.
As I watched this skin-horror play out in my mirror every morning, I felt powerless, alarmed, and frustrated.
My skin was seemingly getting worse by the day. I knew I had to do something different — fast.
But what?
I was doing everything “right”…
and my skin was getting worse.
At first, I tried dozens of the most popular “natural” brands (both online and in stores).
They didn’t work.
Like… at all.
I also tried all the viral natural trends:
• castor oil
• tallow (multiple brands)
• coconut oil, olive oil, shea butter
These either clogged my skin or made my dryness worse.
In my desperation — despite being a naturally minded girl — I even tried petroleum, hyaluronic acid, peptides, stem cells, “miracle ingredients” from space… even diaper cream (someone on the internet told me to. 😅).
Those also broke me out and/or made my dryness worse.
I’d exhausted every option… and I was no better off than when I started.
That’s when I realized something important:
There had to be something most skincare formulators weren’t understanding.
And then one phrase kept repeating in my head:
If you want something done right — do it yourself.
Something shifted inside me.
And I became utterly determined to figure this out, and to fix my skin...once and for all.
Fueled by my strong desire to find a solution, my natural medicine & research background...and a touch of “only child” perfectionism...
I embarked on a one-track mission to find the best, most effective natural anti-aging and moisturizing compounds in existence.
I would leave no stone unturned.
And I would not stop until I succeeded.
NATURE + SCIENTIFIC PROOF
I’M A NATURAL GIRL — WITH A SCIENCE BRAIN.
My mom is a naturopathic doctor, so I grew up watching natural medicine do incredible things.
It's fascinated me ever since.
I've spent over 20 years of my life working with natural compounds and helping people with various health issues.
But I’m not into trends or wishful thinking — I need proof.
Over the years, I learned how to read studies, spot nonsense, and separate real data from hype.
To fix my skin issues, I wanted to harness the healing power of nature...but pair that with hard, scientific evidence.
So I deep-dived into dozens of medical journals, to see what the data conclusions said.
What I found was incredible.
Turns out — h*ll yes — some natural compounds, applied topically, have been shown to HALT SKIN AGING DEAD IN ITS TRACKS.
Here’s a small preview of what I found.
THIS IS WHAT TOPICAL PLANT COMPOUNDS CAN DO.
🔬 CASE REPORT
Before topical application
After 30 days
This incredible image comes from a case report where green tea was applied topically after severe sun exposure (she'd been travelling in Africa).
After 30 days, visible wrinkling dramatically improved.
Here’s the kicker:
this isn't an outlier. Other studies show the exact same anti-aging effect from topical green tea.
Even better?
WHITE TEA (from the same plant) is even more potent against collagen and elastin breakdown (keep reading for those studies).
The more I researched, the more it became clear that plant compounds have incredible skin potential.
But it wasn’t all good news. I also learned why we can't just use any plant compounds, and why most (even “natural”) skincare fails.

WHY MOST “NATURAL” SKINCARE DOESN’T WORK
DISTURBING FACTS STUDIES REVEALED
MOST SKIN CREAMS ARE BASICALLY WATER.
Skin creams are ~70-90% water — but the water is often SNEAKILY LABELED as things like “aloe,” “hydrosol,” or “distillate” (which contain water as the primary ingredient).
Importantly: water-based creams require harsh preservatives, which weaken the skin barrier over time.
Since creams are mostly water, they have weak therapeutic effects.
PRESERVATIVES OFTEN DON’T HAVE TO BE LISTED ON INGREDIENT LABELS.
Companies can legally NOT DISCLOSE preservatives that are hidden inside herbal extracts, aloe, or hydrosols.⁶⁻⁷
Common Examples
- Undisclosed sodium benzoate + potassium sorbate in “aloe juice”
- Undisclosed phenoxyethanol hidden in hydrosols, herbal extracts, or fragrance
- Undisclosed benzyl alcohol, dehydroacetic acid, benzoic acid, or sorbic acid added to fruit or herbal extracts
MOISTURIZERS (EVEN NATURAL ONES) CAN CAUSE DEPENDENCY + DRYNESS.
Shockingly, studies show some moisturizers leave skin more dry, irritated, and worse off than before they were ever used.⁸⁻⁹
POPULAR “NATURAL” OILS CAN WEAKEN THE SKIN BARRIER.
Avocado, olive, and tallow have sub-optimal fatty-acid profiles that can damage the skin barrier and lead to irritation if not carefully balanced by other compounds.¹⁰⁻¹¹
NATURAL INGREDIENTS VARY WIDELY IN ANTI-AGING EFFECTIVENESS.
Most natural skincare formulators rely on low-efficacy ingredients with little to no meaningful data behind them.
MOST ESSENTIAL OILS CAN HARM FACIAL SKIN.
Essential oils oxidize easily and are often too strong for delicate facial skin.
Studies show many essential oils can damage the skin barrier and increase sensitivity.²⁰⁻²¹
CASTOR OIL, TALLOW, & COCONUT OIL CAN CLOG PORES.
Castor oil, tallow, and coconut oil can clog pores and have low skin-rejuvenation efficacy.
Tallow is mostly palmitic, stearic, and oleic acids — all three are associated with acne formation. Studies show these fatty-acid profiles can promote pore congestion and inflammatory responses, increasing breakouts.¹²⁻¹⁶
Tallow is also extremely deficient in antioxidants.
Astaxanthin has ~2,000× more antioxidant power than tallow — and ~28,000× more than coconut oil, according to studies.¹⁷⁻¹⁹

FINDING A REAL SKIN SOLUTION
My research revealed a sad truth: It wasn’t just me that couldn’t find a good skin solution.
The skincare industry is a mess.
Most products don’t work.
And no one seemed to be taking the time to find a truly effective natural solution.
What should have been simple — find natural, safe skincare ingredients that actually work — turned out to be anything but simple.
My mission turned into a multi-year deep-dive, where I spent hundreds of hours (ok, I was a little obsessed…) looking at what the data said about what specific natural compounds can do for skin health.
Spoiler alert:
I did it.
I found the BEST natural anti-aging + moisturizing skin compounds, and put them all together into a one-step, comprehensive skin serum.
It changed my skin. And it changed my life.
But in order to explain why these ingredients work so well — and why they’re better than anything most people can currently buy —
you’ll need a tiny crash course in what actually causes skin aging.
(It's different than what most people think.)
CRASH COURSE: HOW DOES SKIN BECOME F*CKED?
80% OF SKIN AGING IS ENVIRONMENTAL
One might ask:
• Isn’t sagging, wrinkled skin inevitable as we get older?
Studies show that around 80% of what causes skin aging is actually environmental.²
That means we aren’t helpless.
We can’t stop time — but we can intervene in the biggest drivers.
This next section covers the biggest environmental (fixable) causes of skin aging.
MODERN LIVING = RAPID SKIN AGING
Modern living is a recipe for greatly accelerated skin aging.
Things we're exposed to in the modern world are causing our skin to become old, dull and wrinkled before its time.
Here are the worst offenders.
Dry indoor heat
As our furnaces blast all winter long, indoor air becomes very unnaturally dry. Humidity in the air becomes very low. The air basically becomes "thirsty" and will start evaporating moisture from anything it can -- including your skin! Result = the dry air strips skin's protective moisture away, even as we sleep. Dry skin causes wrinkles & ages the skin faster (more on this in a bit).
Pollution + chemicals
Chemicals like car exhaust, pesticides, plasticizers, and industrial pollutants stress the skin.
Processed diet (low antioxidants / high sugar)
Processed & Deficient diets modern diets are low in protective antioxidants, polyphenols, & omega 3's (these have been shown to help skin health). Modern diets are also high in chemicals and sugar (shown to accelerate skin aging/damage collagen).
Synthetic skincare irritants
Modern skincare often contains synthetic chemicals /preservatives/alcohols that disturb the skin's delicate microbiome & damage skin barrier
Stress + sleep deprivation
Chronic stress & lack of sleep inhibit skin repair.
Constant blue light & RF radiation
Blue light:
We're exposed to nearly constant blue light from windows, screens, and LED lights are bad for skin. Blue light on its own can cause oxidative stress in skin & suppress melatonin production.
RF radiation:
RF radiation can cause oxidative stress in skin cells (studies show) & also impacts melatonin production.
melatonin isn't just for sleep. It's actually a Powerful antioxidant, & very important for mitochondrial & skin health!
Sun exposure (photoaging)
UV radiation from the sun is actually by far the most potent skin-ager on this list.
Sunshine is natural and can be very healthy.
But when not approached very carefully, it can lead to Serious skin aging…fine lines, wrinkles and skin damage. This phenomenon is called photoaging.
☀ THE SUN: HEALING — AND ALSO A SKIN WRECKER
(IF YOU’RE UNPROTECTED)
Sun = major cause of fine lines, sagging, DNA damage, and hyperpigmentation
The sun is Healthy:
The sun is crucial to life on earth.
We evolved with sunlight,
and it provides real health benefits²³ ²⁴ —
• Vitamin D production
- healing red light
- circadian rhythm regulation
- blood pressure & weight loss benefits (preliminary studies suggest).
- Sunlight is also a natural mood booster, triggering endorphins and serotonin.
The sun is Harmful:
But the sun can royally f*ck our skin
— if not approached very carefully.
Within minutes of sunlight hitting our skin (well before burning),
it causes an IMMENSE amount of oxidative stress inside skin cells.
Without proper protection,
this leads to a HUGE acceleration in skin aging.
By “properly protected”
I don’t mean just sunscreen.
There are significant photoaging pathways sunscreen can’t address:
• oxidative stress
• collagen-degrading enzymes
• lipid peroxidation
Modern sun exposure = most harmful:
Window-filtered sunlight
It’s not just when you’re outside or at the beach.
Every time you drive or sit near a window, you’re exposed to an unnatural, unbalanced light spectrum that damages skin over time — even in winter. Even on cloudy days.
Lack of morning sunlight
Morning sunlight (before 10 AM) prepares the skin’s natural defense systems for stronger radiation later in the day.²⁵
Most of us miss this signal, leaving skin more vulnerable to oxidative damage.
Lack of protective dietary antioxidants
Modern diets are historically low in antioxidants that help counter sunlight-generated oxidative stress.
Learn more → Why filtered sunlight wrecks skin
Natural sunlight is balanced: Think of sunlight as a nutrient blend — each wavelength has a function. Filtering out parts of the spectrum changes the “recipe.”
Full spectrum sunlight (which contains IR & UVB) triggers protective & repair mechanisms. But most of those spectrums are filtered out through window glass. Yet window glass allows in Most of the UVA & blue light parts of the spectrum.
UVA light (the “silent ager”): UVA doesn't cause sunburn, but damages DNA in the skin's deepest layers. It's often called the "silent ager" because it's constantly delivering oxidative stress that builds up over time. The oxidative stress causes collagen & elastin breakdown, pigmentation & uneven tone, DNA & mitochondrial damage...leading to aged looking skin.
Blue light: causes oxidative stress in skin cells (especially in mitochondria) and is inflammatory...leading to hyperpigmentation, uneven tone, and general skin aging.
In effect this creates a constant pro-oxidative, pro-aging environment--even though the intensity feels gentle.
Long-distance truckers: a striking real-world example
For many hours per day, truck drivers are exposed to window-filtered light on only one side of their face (windshield glass is specially coated).
As a result, drivers often show dramatically more aging on the window-side of the face confirmed in clinical photos and studies.²⁶
Modern, unbalanced sun exposure
— especially through windows,
without morning light,
and paired with antioxidant-poor diets...
is a recipe for skin disaster.
THE SKIN AGING DOOM LOOP
Environmental stressors spark a self-sustaining, self-accelerating damage cascade
THE SKIN AGING DOOM LOOP
Your skin is like a castle wall
made of living bricks (cells),
glue (collagen + elastin),
and a waterproof coating (the skin barrier).
Over time, sunlight, sub-optimal skincare,
and daily life start to wear it down.
When sunlight or other environmental stressors hit your skin, they spark damage beneath the surface.
This is where the doom loop begins.
How the doom loop works
OXIDATIVE STRESS
INFLAMMATION
DEHYDRATION
Together form an interconnected skin-aging DOOM LOOP:
- Oxidative stress creates inflammation →
- Inflammation damages the barrier →
- Barrier loss leads to dehydration →
- Dehydration increases oxidative stress →
- and the cycle repeats →
CELLULAR DEFENSE FATIGUE
And then your skin gets tired of fighting.
Skin relies on defense systems like SIRT1 & NRF2
the body’s anti-aging repair switches.
But constant stress from the modern world overwhelms these defenses, and damage begins to outpace repair.
WRAP-UP
Hydrated, protected skin ages more slowly.
Period.
The skin aging doom loop + cellular defense fatigue is a roadmap for
seriously aged-looking, dehydrated, wrinkled skin.
Clearly, we need real help
if we want to protect our skin from this daily onslaught.
Thankfully, nature can offer that help —
powerfully, and in abundance.
WHY PLANTS SOLVE THE PROBLEM
PLANTS CAN’T RUN FROM THE SUN — SO THEY EVOLVED INTERNAL PROTECTION.
Plants can’t get up and move to the shade, or slather on some sunscreen.
So they make their own.
Plants evolved to create special compounds that act like an
internal sunscreen.
These compounds shield plants against cellular stressors of all kinds.
But this protection doesn’t block sunlight.
Instead, it neutralizes free radicals
before they can cause oxidative stress or inflammation.
THE BEST PART
Studies show that humans can borrow this protection.
When applied topically,
cold-pressed plant oils protect human skin
the same way they protect plants.
Traditional cultures understood this instinctively. Cold-pressed plant oils have been used for skin protection and care for thousands of years.
Natural compounds can powerfully intervene at every step of the skin aging doom loop.
COMPOUNDS IN PLANTS THAT UNF*CK SKIN
Polyphenols
(antioxidant + anti-inflammatory)
Carotenoids
(UV + oxidative defense)
Phytosterols
(barrier repair + hydration)
Essential fatty acids
(lipid replenishment + smoothness)
Rare bioactives
(collagenase / elastase + cellular defense pathways)
These compounds are especially concentrated in cold-pressed plant seed oils.
PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER
Plant compounds are powerful individually.
But when the right ones are combined, their effects can multiply.
That’s the principle behind this formula.
After years spent analyzing the research, sourcing exceptional raw materials, & testing formula compatibility...
These are the ingredients that made the cut.
Not trendy.
Not filler.
Just ingredients that work.
Below are the 11 key ingredients that make this formula work.
Explore each one to see its mechanism and supporting science.
Next, I’ll show you why ingredients alone aren’t enough — concentration, sourcing, and processing matter just as much.
THE SCIENCE-BACKED KEY INGREDIENTS BEHIND THIS FORMULA
WHITE TEA EXTRACT
Naturally-Derived Antioxidant Defender
The most enzyme-protective tea extract studied for wrinkle prevention.
White tea comes from the tender new leaves of Camellia sinensis — picked earlier and minimally processed. This preserves high concentrations of catechins like EGCG that help defend collagen, elastin, and skin tone from UV and oxidative stress.
WHAT IT DOES FOR YOUR SKIN
ENZYME PROTECTION POWERHOUSE¹
- ~89% anti-elastase activity
- ~87% anti-collagenase activity
- Outperformed green tea in direct testing

INGREDIENTS NOTES:
The SUNFLOWER OIL in this formula is part of the White Tea Extract that’s infused into it. It's not filler - it's part of the delivery system for one of the most important antioxidant families in the entire formula.
The idea that “seed oils are bad” is mainly about certain dietary contexts and processing methods—not about topical skincare, where the goal is barrier support.
Topically, sunflower seed oil is actually known for being:
• barrier-supportive - rich in the right kind of fatty acids that are needed for a healthy barrier
• helpful for reducing transepidermal water loss when used correctly in a balanced formula
My NATURAL SCENT BLEND is light & contains Zero phthalates or synthetics. Only naturally-derived plant compounds + & the only essential oil present is a bit of East Indian (important) Sandalwood.
East Indian Sandalwood, in particular, has been shown in studies to be uniquely awesome for facial skin (and not prone to oxidation like a lot of essential oils).
The LANOLIN I use is not pore-clogging or harmful to the sheep. Our lanolin is ethically sourced and ultra-purified to medical grade.
The idea that "lanolin clogs pores" comes from outdated studies using crude, impure lanolin at 100% concentration on animal skin. We only a small % of a highly refined form that removes pore-clogging impurities and behaves similarly to your skin’s natural lipids—Powerfully supporting the barrier without blocking pores.
Those are just a few highlights.

POWERED BY NATURE.
BACKED BY SCIENCE.
The best skin serum ever. Period.
Through a combination of:
• deep knowledge of natural compounds
• pouring over mountains of data for more than two years
• and truly understanding what causes skin aging —
I created the ultimate skin solution.
Nothing synthetic.
Just the best from nature — intelligently combined.
It works so well, I named it boldly:
Unf*ck Your Skin.
Unf*ck Your Skin is an all-in-one moisturizer + anti-aging + repair serum.
It replaces the need for multiple skin products.
No product this effective, comprehensive, and natural existed —
so I had to create it.
Unf*ck Your Skin defends against wrinkles, sagging, & uneven tone — while restoring healthy, hydrated skin in just weeks.

COMPREHENSIVE SYNERGY
A network — not a single ingredient.
Unf*ck Your Skin is engineered to interrupt the Skin Aging Doom Loop at every level:
Oxidative Stress → Inflammation → Dehydration → Cellular Fatigue
These ingredients don’t work alone — they reinforce each other at every level.
ANTIOXIDANT NETWORK SYNERGY
Astaxanthin neutralizes lipid-phase free radicals while helping preserve CoQ10 inside the skin.
CoQ10 supports mitochondrial energy + reduces oxidative damage at the source.
White Tea intercepts reactive oxygen species before they trigger downstream damage.
Pterostilbene reinforces long-term oxidative signaling control.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY SYNERGY
Black seed oil helps calm NF-κB–driven inflammatory pathways.
Pomegranate + White tea provide polyphenolic buffering that prevents inflammation from escalating.
Astaxanthin reduces oxidative triggers that lead to chronic inflammation.
BARRIER + HYDRATION SYNERGY
Jojoba mimics natural skin oils, helping repair the barrier.
Squalane restores softness + prevents moisture loss without heaviness.
Prickly pear reinforces the barrier with essential fatty acids that improve resilience.
Exotic tree butters provide lasting occlusive support to lock hydration in place.

Some ingredients don’t just fight damage —
they help your skin defend itself.
Pterostilbene + White tea support longevity and detox pathways.
CoQ10 + Astaxanthin protect mitochondria from oxidative stress.
The result:
stronger cells, better energy, and slower aging at the source.
This is why Unf*ck Your Skin works differently — and more completely — than single-ingredient or trend-driven formulas.
"SHERENE, NO ONE BELIEVES YOU'RE 43"
I get carded at the liquor store — and even rated-R movies.
I’m not trying to brag — people genuinely mistake me for being in my 20s.
Lifestyle and genetics play a role, of course.
But having experienced my skin before I created this serum… and after — there is a world of difference.
Unf*ck Your Skin is a key player in my skin’s healthy, youthful appearance — despite technically being of “advanced age.”
It’s the only thing I use on my skin.
And for the first time, I’m genuinely happy with where my skin is at.
I now wake up with dewy, hydrated, baby-soft skin — even in the dead of winter.
Even when I crank the heat up to 73.
Even with no humidifier running.
Even living in Minnesota.
I don’t cringe when I look in the mirror anymore.
My skin no longer looks like it’s aging rapidly — like it once did.
My skin looks nourished, vibrant, youthful, and protected.
There’s an unmistakable glow now — one that simply wasn’t there before.
It took a lot of time and research to get here.
But I genuinely love my skin now.
Even at 43.
Even with daily sun exposure in the summer.
Even with real-world skin stress.
Best of all? Simplicity.
It didn’t take a 15-step routine to get here.
I use one product — and it takes care of everything.
ONE step. ONE bottle.
Moisture + glow + defense — without toxins, fillers, or a 15-step routine.
45 Day Money Back Guarantee
If you don’t love it, you don’t pay. →
⚠️ Fair warning: it’s a little addictive. 😉
People tend to panic when they run out — because once you experience your skin with Unf*ck Your Skin, you won’t want to go back.
REAL RESULTS
From real people - after trying everything else.
4.9★ average rating
UNF*CK YOUR SKIN = QUALITY + VALUE
It takes a LOT of time and care to make a truly high-quality product.
And real, organic ingredients aren’t cheap.
Many toxic and less effective serums sell for literally hundreds of dollars per bottle.
At its current price, Unf*ck Your Skin is an exceptional value.
I could charge more than 2× the price and it would still be worth it. (I’ve had multiple people tell me I’d be insane not to.)
But I wanted to make sure this serum was accessible to regular people like me
—people who want something that’s TOTALLY non-toxic, yet ACTUALLY effective.
QUALITY & VALUE
Replaces Multiple Products
Unf*ck Your Skin can replace your moisturizer, toner, repair serums, and anti-aging products.
Handmade in Small Batches
Each batch is carefully crafted by hand.
It takes time — but that’s how quality is protected.
Glass Bottled
Because microplastics don’t belong in your skincare.
Freshness Protected
Cold-pressed oils are sensitive to heat, light, and oxygen.
We use cold processing, dark glass bottles, and remove excess oxygen from each bottle.
Carefully Sourced, Quality Ingredients
Every supplier is personally vetted.
Every ingredient is naturally-sourced, cold-pressed, and/or organic.
Carefully Processed to Avoid Plastic, Phthalates, & Teflon
Many (even natural) brands use:
- plastic filling tubes that contain phthalates
- Teflon-coated mixers & equipment
- plastic gloves that shed microplastics & phthalates, especially when contacting oils.
We use: rubber gloves, glass beakers, stainless mixers.
⚠️ WARNING: Fake oils are a real problem.
Cheap “natural” oils are often diluted, oxidized, or outright counterfeit and consumers rarely know.

IT WAS HARD.
BUT IT WAS WORTH IT.
I set out on what should have been a simple mission:
Find a natural, moisturizing, anti-aging product that actually works—
and doesn’t cause harm.
It wasn’t simple.
It wasn’t quick.
And it definitely wasn’t easy.
But it was worth it.
Out of personal necessity, I created Unf*ck Your Skin.
Now I’m sharing it with anyone else who might need it.
I genuinely hope you get as much benefit from this serum as I do.
Heads up:
Small batch production — each batch is handmade with great care.

¹ = SUNFLOWER OIL INFO: the sunflower oil in this formula is part of the White Tea Extract that’s infused into it. It's not filler - it's part of the delivery system for one of the most important antioxidant families in the entire formula.
-
Topically, sunflower seed oil is actually known for being:
-
barrier-supportive
-
rich in the right kind of fatty acids that are needed for a healthy barrier
-
helpful for reducing transepidermal water loss when used correctly in a balanced formula
-
The idea that “seed oils are bad” is mainly about certain dietary contexts and processing methods—not about topical skincare, where the goal is barrier support.
² = PLANT-DERIVED FRAGRANCE INFO: my natural scent blend is a light natural scent that contains Zero phthalates or synthetics. Only naturally-derived plant compounds + a bit of East Indian (important) Sandalwood.
-
East Indian Sandalwood, in particular, has been shown in studies to be uniquely awesome for facial skin (and not prone to oxidation or damaging to skin in any way).
³ = LANOLIN INFO: our lanolin is ethically sourced (no harm to sheep) and ultra-purified to medical grade.
Will the lanolin "clog pores? -- no. The idea that lanolin clogs pores comes from outdated studies using crude, impure lanolin at 100% concentration on animal skin. We use only a small % of a highly refined form that removes pore-clogging impurities and behaves similarly to your skin’s natural lipids—powerfully supporting the barrier without blocking pores.
FAQ
Will plant oils clog my skin? Are oils bad for oily skin?
-
Short answer: Oils aren’t automatically pore-clogging—the wrong oils are.
A lot of people assume “oil = breakouts,” but what actually matters is: -
the fatty-acid profile (some oils can be more congestion-prone for some skin types)
-
how well the oil supports the skin barrier
-
whether the formula is overloaded with heavy, waxy, oxidized, or irritating components
-
Unf*ck Your Skin was formulated specifically to be non-comedogenic-friendly —even for people with oily and acne-prone skin—because it focuses on:
-
barrier-supportive lipids (so your skin doesn’t overcompensate by producing more oil)
-
anti-inflammatory + antioxidant protection (which can calm the irritation spiral that contributes to breakouts)
-
a texture that’s cushiony, but not greasy
-
That said: everyone’s skin is unique. If you’re extremely acne-prone, perhaps start with a smaller amount and see how it goes.
And remember: dry, irritated skin can trigger more oil production. Fixing the barrier often helps oily skin look calmer and more balanced.
Why do you use sunflower seed oil—aren’t seed oils bad?
Great question—and this is where “internet nutrition talk” gets mixed up with skin science.
First: the sunflower oil in this formula is part of the White Tea Extract that’s infused into it.
Second: the idea that “seed oils are bad” is mainly about certain dietary contexts and processing methods—not about topical skincare, where the goal is barrier support.
Topically, sunflower seed oil is actually known for being:
-
barrier-supportive
-
rich in the right kind of fatty acids that are needed for a healthy barrier
-
helpful for reducing transepidermal water loss when used correctly in a balanced formula
In other words: in skincare, sunflower oil (especially when used as a carrier for potent polyphenols like white tea extract) can be a smart, functional component—not a problem.
And in this serum, it’s not “filler”—it’s part of the delivery system for one of the most important antioxidant families in the entire formula.
Why do you have "natural fragrance" & what's in it?
It was necessary to add a light, natural, scent component to Unf*ck Your Skin. Black Seed is potent. On its own, it’s quite "herby" smelling. It can be overwhelming, when used alone.
So I took a lot of time to craft a 100% natural, safe, pleasant-smelling blend that perfectly balances & smooths out black seed's naturally sharp aroma.
My natural fragrance blend contains Zero phthalates or synthetics.
Only naturally-derived plant compounds + a bit of East Indian (important) Sandalwood.
East Indian Sandalwood, in particular, has been shown in studies to be uniquely awesome for facial skin (and not prone to oxidation or damaging to skin in any way–unlike some essential oils).
Why is my serum solid or unusual-looking?
Natural ingredients behave naturally.
Because this formula uses real, high-potency plant oils and avoids synthetic stabilizers, the serum will respond to temperature changes.
If exposed to cooler conditions (below ~72°F / 22°C), you may notice temporary texture changes such as thickening or small natural specks or solids.
This is completely normal and does not affect performance or quality.
If the serum becomes thick or solid:
Let the bottle sit at warm room temperature, or run the closed bottle briefly under warm water until the serum becomes fluid enough for the dropper.
If your home runs cool, the serum can still be used while thickened, or you can warm the tightly closed bottle briefly under warm water before use.
If you see natural specks, solids, or crystals:
Run the closed bottle under warm or hot water until the serum returns to a smooth, uniform texture. Gently shake.
Care tip:
To maintain freshness, keep the bottle tightly closed and avoid allowing water to enter the bottle.

Note: castor oil is ~90% ricinoleic acid, a hydroxylated fatty acid that behaves very differently from the fatty acids skin evolved to work with. Ricinoleic acid activates prostaglandin receptors (EP3). prostaglandin signaling is a classic inflammation pathway. If someone’s follicles are acne-prone, anything that increases local irritation/inflammatory signaling can tip them into inflamed bumps.
