Sun & Moo

How two companies became united under one vision

Sun & Moo is the passion project of Angelika and Emilie, inspired by their love for tallow, skincare, and ancestral wisdom. Partnering with a family-owned manufacturer, they’ve created a skincare line that nourishes your skin while celebrating organic ingredients. Believing radiant skin begins within, they focus on the highest quality ingredients for healing and maintaining a healthy complexion.

Founder

Angelika

The original founder and co-owner, has been using tallow in her skincare routine for over four years, inspired by her exploration of the gut-skin connection. She dedicates her time to creating innovative tallow-based products while sharing her journey on her Instagram page, @cookwithangelika. With a full-time commitment to Sun & Moo, Angelika continues to merge her knowledge of nutrition and skincare to craft products that promote both inner and outer beauty.

Emilie

Co-owner of Sun & Moo, Emilie began her skincare journey working in the Luxury and Beauty Division of Armani and questioned the extensive list of chemical ingredients in their products.  This inspired her to create OrganicDarlings, which has been creating natural skincare products for three years. Growing up in France, Emilie developed a deep appreciation for organic beauty and European skincare trends, which she now incorporates into Sun & Moo’s formulations. Her passion for research and French beauty traditions shines through in every product.
