Stell® is a lightweight, fast-absorbing face oil that delivers softness, smoothness, and comfortable nourishment without the heavy, greasy finish of richer oils. Its carefully balanced blend of botanical oils and squalane helps soften rough-feeling skin, ease tightness, and reduce moisture loss.
Rich in naturally occurring omega fatty acids, Stell was designed to leave skin feeling supple and looking naturally radiant, rather than coated in oil. Fragrance-free, without essential oils, and thoughtfully formulated with sensitive skin in mind.
Use it on its own or after a hydrating serum like our Hindre® whenever your skin needs a little extra emollient nourishment.
Quick Questions
Will Stell leave my skin feeling greasy?
Stell was designed to feel different from heavier facial oils. Its blend of lightweight botanical oils and squalane spreads easily, absorbs comfortably, and leaves skin feeling soft and supple rather than coated in oil. Just one or two drops are usually enough.
What does Stell do for my skin?
Stell adds lightweight emollient nourishment to help smooth rough-feeling areas, ease the feeling of tightness, and leave skin soft and naturally radiant. It works especially well after a hydrating serum like Hindre, adding comfort and softness without requiring a rich cream.
Is Stell suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?
Stell's simple, fragrance-free formulation was developed with sensitive skin in mind. Its blend includes oils naturally rich in linoleic acid, but that doesn't guarantee it will suit every acne-prone complexion. If your skin is particularly reactive or breakout-prone, start with a drop or two and see how your skin responds.
Why Stell Works
Not all facial oils feel the same. Some are rich and heavy, while others provide a lighter, more comfortable finish. Stell was deliberately formulated to give skin the benefits of nourishing botanical oils without an overly oily feel.
The blend combines safflower, hemp seed, cloudberry, and grapeseed oils with squalane. These ingredients were selected for their complementary fatty acid profiles, skin-conditioning properties, and overall feel on the skin.
Balanced omega fatty acids: Safflower and hemp seed oils are naturally rich in linoleic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid that contributes to normal skin barrier function. Hemp seed oil also provides omega-3 fatty acids. Together, these oils offer lightweight emollience while helping skin feel soft and comfortable.
Lightweight, comfortable nourishment: Squalane and grapeseed oil help create Stell's silky, easily spreadable texture. The balanced blend provides softness and suppleness without the heavy coating associated with some richer oils.
Additional skin conditioning: Cloudberry seed oil contributes naturally occurring fatty acids and antioxidants, while bisabolol is included for its soothing, skin-conditioning properties.
Thoughtful antioxidant protection: Vitamin E and rosemary CO₂ extract help protect the botanical oils in the formulation from oxidation.
Every ingredient has a purpose. Stell is intentionally uncomplicated, with no added fragrance, essential oils, or unnecessary extras.

Who is Stell best for?
Stell is a good choice for normal, combination, and dry-feeling skin that benefits from additional softness and emollient nourishment. It's particularly useful when your skin feels hydrated but could use a little more comfort, suppleness, or softness.
Its lightweight finish also makes it appealing to people who dislike the heavy feel of traditional face oils.
Stell was formulated with sensitive skin in mind, but individual responses vary. If you have very oily or breakout-prone skin, begin with a small amount or apply it only where additional nourishment is needed.
For very dry or flaky skin that needs substantial hydration, Stell may work best alongside a hydrating serum and moisturizer rather than as a replacement for them.
How to Use
Apply one or two drops to your fingertips and gently press over your face and neck, concentrating on areas that need extra softness and comfort.
Use morning, evening, or both, depending on your skin's needs.
After Hindre® Face Serum: Apply Hindre first for lightweight hydration, then follow with Stell to add emollient nourishment and help reduce moisture loss.
With your usual skincare: Apply Stell after water-based serums or moisturizer when you want additional softness and a naturally radiant finish.
On its own: Use a drop or two whenever your skin needs a little extra nourishment. Stell can also be applied selectively to areas that feel dry or tight.
A little goes a long way. With typical use, the 15 ml bottle may last approximately 4–6 weeks, while the 30 ml bottle may last 8–12 weeks. Actual usage varies.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Stell different from other face oils?
Stell was formulated for people who want the softness and comfort of a facial oil without a heavy, greasy finish. Its blend of safflower, hemp seed, cloudberry, and grapeseed oils with squalane was deliberately balanced for lightweight emollience and a comfortable skin feel.
It's also intentionally simple, with no added fragrance or essential oils, and includes bisabolol for additional skin-conditioning benefits.
Can Stell replace my moisturizer?
That depends on your skin. Stell provides emollient nourishment, helping skin feel softer, smoother, and more comfortable while reducing moisture loss. It doesn't contain the water-binding ingredients found in hydrating serums or creams.
If your skin is already well hydrated, Stell may provide enough additional comfort on its own. If your skin is dehydrated or very dry, you'll likely benefit from using it alongside a hydrating serum or moisturizer.
Can I use Stell if I have oily or combination skin?
Yes, depending on your skin's needs. Stell is designed to feel lighter than many traditional face oils, so it can be a good option when combination skin needs extra softness without a heavy finish.
Start with one drop, concentrating on areas that feel dry or tight. If your skin is already comfortably moisturized, you may not need an additional oil every day.
Will Stell clog my pores or cause breakouts?
Stell contains lightweight botanical oils, including safflower, hemp seed, and grapeseed oils, which are naturally rich in linoleic acid. These were chosen as part of a balanced formulation intended to feel comfortable on the skin.
However, no facial oil can be guaranteed not to cause breakouts for everyone. If you're acne-prone, start with a small amount and observe how your skin responds before increasing use.
How do I use Stell with Hindre Face Serum?
Apply Hindre first to provide lightweight, water-based hydration. Follow with one or two drops of Stell to add emollient softness and help reduce moisture loss.
You don't necessarily need both. If Hindre alone leaves your skin comfortable, that's enough. Stell is there for days or areas when you want a little extra nourishment.
Can I use Stell under sunscreen or makeup?
Yes. Apply a small amount of Stell after your water-based skincare and allow it to settle before applying sunscreen. Using too much oil can affect how subsequent products sit on the skin, so start with just one drop for daytime use.
Apply sunscreen according to its directions, and adjust the amount of Stell if your sunscreen or makeup doesn't layer comfortably.
How much Stell should I use, and how long does a bottle last?
Start with one or two drops for your face and neck, then adjust depending on your skin's needs. You can use Stell morning, evening, or just on areas needing extra softness.
With typical use, the 15 ml bottle may last approximately 4–6 weeks, while the 30 ml bottle may last 8–12 weeks. Actual usage varies with the amount and frequency of application.
