The Sunday Standard, our in-house line of skincare, body care, and wellness products, was launched in 2018 in response to our shop founder Emma's desire to create the skincare line she'd always dreamed of - one that would help to heal her painful, cystic acne at a cellular level, rather than simply minimize her current breakout while she waited for the next one to (inevitably) appear.
Formulated to provide the skin with the nutrients it needs to function optimally, and without the use of harsh hormone-disrupting ingredients, The Sunday Standard offers products that work to support the skin's lipid barrier, normalize the skin's natural oil production, reduce the occurrence of active breakouts, minimize and fade blemishes, and support healthy skin aging.
Our products are formulated with breakout-prone skin in mind, but work wonderfully to support healthy skin of all types through our gentle, non-comedogenic oil-based skincare system.
The Sunday Standard products are produced weekly in small-batches at our Chicago-based cosmetics studio, located behind our Armitage Avenue storefront.

Facial oils should be layered over your moisturizing creams and serums to lock-in active ingredients and create a moisture seal on the skin. Always apply a facial oil as the last step in your skincare routine. Our Blue Tansy & GLA Ultra-Clarifying Oil is formulated to be the perfect partner to our Rosehip & Sea Buckthorn Restorative Night Oil. When used together, we recommend the Ultra-Clarifying Oil for morning use and the Restorative Night Oil for evening use. Everyone's skin is different ~ if you find that you crave the lightweight hydration of our Ultra-Clarifying Oil during the evening, it is perfectly acceptable to make it a part of your nighttime routine!
