About Lumi Skin
15 years ago, before mindful skincare was trending and before big brands launched their award-winning formulas, do you remember your routine?
Were you putting toothpaste on pimples?
Tea bags on your eyelids?
Coffee scrubs on blackheads?
Folk tales about skincare differed everywhere, but they all united us around the same dream of having clearer, healthier skin.
Later, we figured that our previous methods were far from good. But many new products in the early ages of skincare evolution were harsh — high pH, rough particles, pore-clogging ingredients. And yes, that viral black peel-off mask that took dirt from clogged pores together with our skin barriers. We've been there, and even for nostalgia, we don't want back.
Today, we have more products than ever. So why isn't everyone's skin thriving?
Because there's no universal formula. And most of us are clearly not biochemists. Just like you, we don't know what Ethylhexyl Palmitate and Gluconolactone on the label mean. But we know, that when we can't decode ingredients, it becomes easy to sell us promises. If the packaging says “clears acne” and then an influencer swears by it, we believe it, and buy it, and put it on our skin with other miracle products, and… get disappointed.
Have you ever reached a point where your skin was so troubled you didn't even know what was causing the problem anymore? We did. And not once. With every new skincare trend, we fell for it and started the cycle again. Does it sound cliché that we wanted to end this cycle?
We built Lumi and gave it high-quality, up-to-date skincare research — everything about ingredients and how they work together. We did it so we could stop guessing: is it oil-free? fungal-acne safe? full of silicones or fragrance? or not? And now you can do it too.
If you are just like us — skincare nerds at heart — now you too have an app that will help you navigate in this full of marketing noise industry by just scanning or searching a product and seeing if it's truly your match.
Lumi is made to bring your skincare obsession to a new level by giving you access to knowledge that is hidden behind the labels. And of course, by improving your skincare habits so that you can finally see your dream skin in the mirror reflection.
Let's turn this movement into a revolution! Together.
