Our story
Built to the Ruski Standard
RUSKI began with Cassandra, a Russian-Australian lash artist with a Bachelor’s degree in Social Science (Psychology) and a simple conviction: that beauty should be held to a higher standard.
Russian lash work earned its reputation through disciplined technique. Working to that standard every day, Cassandra saw firsthand that the products around it rarely met it. Combining years of hands-on experience, advanced lash training and independent study into peptide science, lash biology and cosmetic formulation, she created RUSKI to hold lash care to the same discipline as the lash work it supports: Russian expertise and evidence-informed formulation.
Cassandra
RUSKI was founded by Cassandra, a Russian-Australian lash artist, founder of CC & Co Aesthetics, graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Social Science (Psychology), and a 6× certified lash specialist in Russian Volume, Volume, Classic Lash Extensions, Lash Lifting and advanced lash techniques.
Working with clients every week, she saw firsthand the gap between what lash products promised and what they delivered. Her technical training gave her an in-depth understanding of lash health, growth cycles and aftercare, while years of independent study into peptide science, cosmetic ingredients and lash biology shaped RUSKI’s evidence-informed approach to formulation.
The result is a collection built on Russian technique and modern cosmetic science, prioritising performance, safety and transparency. Across peptide, natural active and hybrid formulations, every product is designed to support the look of healthy, conditioned lashes over time. Every disclosed serum formula is made without prostaglandin analogues.
“I built RUSKI for the woman in my chair. If it isn’t good enough for my own clients, it doesn’t carry my name.”

The standard first, always
Ruski Standard isn’t only how a product performs; it’s what goes into it. A lash product should respect the person using it, and a brand should be able to support what it says. Every formula is third-party tested and disclosed in full.
Whether you're caring for your lashes day to day or between extension sets, RUSKI is built to be the name you can check, not just trust.
