I am so happy! My skin can be hit and miss with products containing citrus anything - until this little miracle came along. It seems my skin loves cloud berry (one of the main ingredients), which delivers some much needed vitamin C to my ageing skin. This formula is so lightweight. It goes on like a dream and absorbs so easily without leaving any sticky residue. It smells amazing too. I used this in my morning skincare routine for a few months, and have found it has left my skin feeling much softer and hydrated than in has in a while. Also, a little goes a long way. The sample size I had (thanks to Birchbox) easily lasted me a few months, maybe more, so for the full size it would definitely be worth an investment in my personal opinion and I will no doubt be re-purchasing once other serums I have in my collection are finished up. Very happy with this one and would recommend it to all my friends and family.

I am in my mid 40's with normal, light tone skin and blue eyes. My hair is blonde, normal with fine texture.
✨This is an essential step in my AM skincare regime for my oily skin. Even though it is packed with Hyaluronic Acid, it does not break me out whatsoever. It also contains Vitamin C which is fab for brightening the skin. It smells gorgeous and is nice and fresh - exactly what you need in the morning! The price is a bit steep at £30, but the bottle is quite large and it does last a long time - I only use 3 drops and that is enough to fully cover my face and neck. I had some small dark spots on my face and they have definitely lightened. It doesn’t make me oily and it sits beautifully under makeup. I love all things Lumene and this is no exception!

I love this in the mornings. I actually don't care what it does for my skin, it just smells so fresh and citrusy. Luckily, it does seem to hydrate my skin and I have noticed some reduction in pigmentation around my eyes and a little more of a healthy radiance on my cheeks. My skin feel great after I use this. I really enjoy using it and would definitely repurchase.
