Lumene Vitamin C+ Pure Radiance Beauty Drops
Thursday, June 21st, 2012
Vitamin C is proven to be an effective ingredient for minimizing pores and reducing hyperpigmentation, but when it’s exposed to air it loses its effectiveness. Lumene has found a way to overcome this problem by putting daily doses in tiny capsules in jar. Not only do these ‘drops’ have a vitamin C, they also have moisturizing plant sterols and antioxidants. You get a 28 day supply, which is enough to see a huge difference. In terms of skin texture and even tone, this is the greatest product we’ve tried. If you put it on at night, you’ll see the difference in the morning. And although we loved the matte texture it gave our skin, we don’t recommend you wear this during the day. Vitamin C makes your skin more sensitive to sunlight, so putting it on at night is best. And you’ll also want to be sure to use a sunscreen. This product reminds us of Estee Lauder’s Idealist, which is one of their best sellers. Lumene suggests you use the product over the course of 28 days. However, we think it’s also a good idea to just use a capsule at night whenever you want your skin to look great the next day.

Lumene Excellent Future Deep Repairing Serum
Thursday, October 6th, 2011
In terms of getting the job done with fighting aging, serums are the way to go. Many people ask what the point of using a serum is when you can always use a moisturizer with anti-aging ingredients. But the anti-age ingredients aren’t as potent when mixed with a product that is also tasked to moisturize your skin. So what goes on first, the serum or the moisturizer? You put the serum on first, and then the next layer is your moisturizer. When you have oily skin, sometimes a serum is a great way to have something to protect your skin and you can skip the moisturizer. We found that Lumene’s Excellent Future Deep Repairing Serum gave skin great texture and as promised reduced the depth of existing wrinkles. But what we liked most was that it’s fragrance free and 90% natural. We tried it on sensitive skin and didn’t see any irritation. If you haven’t heard of Lumene before, it’s a Finland based company that makes skincare from Artic berries and plants which are said to be very resilient.

Lumene Pure Radiance Day Cream SPF 15
Tuesday, July 19th, 2011
We have found the most luxurious drug store brand day cream! Lumene’s Pure Radiance Day Cream is rich without being too greasy. It has a great fresh scent and contains vitamin Cc to brighten the complexion, plant sterols for moisture balance, and antioxidants to protect the skin from future aging. We really liked the feel of it and the texture it gave our skin. It serves as an excellent base to prep your skin for foundation. However, if you have oily skin this is probably too heavy for you as a daytime moisturizer.
