Skincare shouldn't be a guessing game

Lumin takes the guesswork out of skincare.

The skincare market feels overwhelmingly saturated these days, making it difficult to weed out brands that actually work. That’s why we try to do the work for you to find products that are straightforward and science-backed (our grooming writer Michael Stefanov has a regular column, “Grooming Brands to Know,” dedicated to this quest).

Lumin is another skincare brand that recently came across our desks that, upon further research, we felt we must share. The first thing that caught our eye about Lumin is the product that made them a viral hit, their pro-level Luminator LED Eye Mask (more on that later).

Since then, Lumin has expanded their product line to a number of best-selling basics — from charcoal face washes to dark circle correctors — made of high-performance targeted formulas with over 10,000 five-star reviews and no guesswork involved. And as with all the best brands, there are no parabens, sulfates, phthalates or animal testing, ever.

We’ve dropped their must-haves below:
