Eco Info
Excellent working conditions
RUE is handcrafted by founder and formulator, Kristina Dunn in small batches in her studio in Oslo. Also in the process of harvesting the organic raw materials, the process is small, controlled and done by hand.
Supporting traditional skills
The organic natural way of taking advantage of nature’s resources in is not something new, and to refine this tradition like RUE does, is a true art. She collaborates with players like the Northern Company and the Norwegian Seaweed Company, who harvest their raw materials by hand along the coast of Norway and Iceland. Kristina then ads new technology and innovation through Plant Stem Cell Extracts cultivated in a bio-greenhouse in Sweden, RUE is merging new with old, but through the process bringing back the slow meaningful way of doing things.
Kristina did not choose the fast way in regards to her own craft either, and is now a two time award winning Organic Cosmetic Scientist, with diplomas in Organic Skincare Formulation, Organic Cosmetic Science, Anti-Aging Skincare, and Beauty Business Management.
