From the Founders

At Russ & Rose, we believe that beauty begins in the pause.

What started as a shared ritual between us as siblings became a quiet movement toward something more—a return to care that feels honest, gentle, and deeply rooted in the Filipino way of living.

As a pharmacist and a nurse, we were raised to heal. But more than that, we were raised to listen—to notice the little things. The warm towel pressed to a tired face. The scent of herbs in the garden after the rain. These memories shaped how we see skincare—not as a routine, but as a rhythm.

We created Russ & Rose to bring together traditional Philippine botanicals with modern, barrier-supporting science. Every product we make is crafted with intention: cruelty-free, thoughtfully formulated, and designed to work with your skin—not override it.

This isn’t about perfection. This is about presence.
A gentle return to what feels like home.

Welcome to Russ & Rose.
Your Ritual, Your Pause.

With quiet care,
Rustan Sagun & Cristina Rose Sagun
