The Colombian Superfruit Powering Our Bio-Clinical Formulas

In Colombia, when someone looks radiant, we say:

“¡Estás como un Lulo!
”You look like a Lulo.

It’s more than a compliment. It’s a way of saying someone looks vibrant, gorgeous, full of light.

I grew up knowing Lulo as a taste: bright, tart, refreshing. What I didn’t yet understand was that this fruit carried something far deeper than flavour.

High in the Colombian Andes, in cloud forests rich with biodiversity, grows Lulo (Solanum quitoense) — a fruit naturally abundant in vitamin C, carotenoids, niacin, and protective plant antioxidants.

For generations, it was consumed as a beauty tonic.
Today, science helps explain why.

This is the fruit at the heart of Lulo Skin.

Why Lulo Belongs in Skincare

Lulo is not powerful because of a single isolated molecule.
It is powerful because of its balance.

• Its naturally occurring vitamin C supports collagen production and helps improve the appearance of uneven tone.¹ ²
• Its niacin helps strengthen the skin barrier and refine texture.³

• Its antioxidant compounds help defend against the visible effects of environmental stress.⁴

These are not trends. They are foundational mechanisms in skin science.
Lulo delivers them in their original botanical harmony.

Botanical Power. Clinical Precision.

At Lulo Skin, we cold-press our organic Lulo extract to preserve its integrity, then incorporate it into concentrated, waterless formulas.

No dilution.
No filler.
No unnecessary additives.

Every ingredient serves a function.
Every formula is intentional.

This is what we mean by bio-clinical - nature, elevated through disciplined formulation.

What Lulo Supports

With consistent use, Lulo-powered formulas help support:

• Brighter-looking skin
• The appearance of firmness and elasticity
• Antioxidant defense
• A resilient skin barrier
• Overall vitality and glow

While dedicated clinical trials on topical Lulo are still emerging, its nutrient profile aligns directly with ingredients extensively studied in dermatology.

We didn’t invent its power.
We simply chose to honour it.

A World First - And a Responsibility

Lulo Skin is the first skincare brand to bring Colombian Lulo fruit into commercial cosmetic formulations.

We work directly with Colombian growers.
We preserve the fruit through cold-press extraction.
We formulate without water to protect concentration and performance.

With Lulo, you are not choosing between nature and science.
You are choosing their highest expression.

Como un Lulo.
Radiant. Alive. Unmistakable.
