I've been extremely fortunate that I have gotten to try so many amazing natural skincare brands. Even more so that I have gotten good, sometimes even amazing results from them.
Luminance Skincare is no exception. I think of all the brands I have tested in the past several months, none have provided such noticeable anti-aging benefits in such a short amount of time. Granted, I already look a lot younger than my age, but I know what my "areas of improvement" are, and this line has definitely improved those considerably!
Maybe it's the fact that they use some of the most therapeutic, nourishing ingredients there is. Or that those ingredients are not only organic, but raw as well, so they retain all of their healing nutrients. Whatever it is, these products work and I am excited to share my thoughts on them with you!

1) Delicate Cleanser - This cleanser is probably one of the most unique cleansers I have ever used. It is not only made with highly nourishing and moisturizing oils, such as Avocado, Coconut, Jojoba, Argan and Macadamia Nut to name a few, but it is also made with ph balanced soap. It is vegan, organic and raw. It produces a light lather, rinses completely clean and leaves your skin incredibly soft. I've only been using this for a few weeks, but I am loving the way my skin feels afterwards and also that I have not once broken out! I have definitely been looking forward to washing my face since receiving this! Oh, and the fact that this comes in a spray bottle means less chance of wasting product so this baby will last you quite awhile!

* A few words about Potassium Hydroxide: It is not synthetic. It is the traditional base component that when added to the fatty acids (the seed and fruit skin oils) to create a reaction resulting in hot process liquid soap. The most gentle skin loving variety of soaps. When the formulation is done right, and we do it by hand is small batches, with engineering precision, all of the Sodium Hydroxide reacts with all of the oils, and clays and essential oils into a wonderfully fragrant, perfectly gentle and safe bottle of liquid soap.
2) Rosewater Toner - As a fan of roses and rose scented anything, this is like heaven in a bottle to me. It's pure organic Rose Water, with nothing added to it. It restores the ph balance to your skin after cleansing, can help make up blend more seamlessly, and it is perfect for all skin types.The therapeutic and healing benefits of Rose Water are endless and why it is a must have staple in my skincare!
Price - $18 for 4oz or $30 for 8oz
Ingredients - Water: Organic Rose Water

3) Nourishing Serum - I think this is probably my favorite product of the bunch and that is saying a lot, since I loved everything I was sent! One of the things that makes this serum so special is that it contains Tamarind extract, a fruit high in anti-oxidants and a special form of polysaccarides, called xyloglucans, which has been proven to outperform Hyaluronic acid in terms of moisturizing and plumping up skin. I've noticed that since using this serum my skin has become firmer and yes, more hydrated. A very little bit is all you need to see any kind of results, so again mucho bang for your buck! I can honestly say I will shed a tear when I run of this, it's that good!

4) Hydration Face Moisturizer - If you like a moisturizer that deeply nourishes but feels light on your skin, then this product is for you. As with the serum, a little goes a very long way, and it absorbs into the skin very quickly, so you don't have to wait long before applying make-up, a plus if you are pressed for time! This moisturizer also contains ingredients which are anti-inflammatory, such as Evening Primrose and Meadowfoam oils, so acne prone gals like myself need not worry about break outs!
Price - $27 for 1.9oz

5) Mataki (Maitake) Mushroom Face Mask - I love mushrooms. I eat them almost daily, I just never thought of using them on my face. Since using this mask, however, I can now say that I love using mushrooms in my skincare! This mask is literally food for your face. It contains organic Maitake Mushroom, Kelp, Matcha Tea and food grade clays, which all work together to pull impurities from your skin, while providing deep hydration. You can use this either as a regular mask, washing it off after ten minutes or so, or you can apply a thin layer and leave on overnight in place of your moisturizer for more detoxifying benefits.

6) Anjou Pear Soap - This creamy, super moisturizing soap smells just like fresh pears! I love using soaps like this that are hand crafted, gentle and contain absolutely zero toxins or harsh chemicals!

My overall thoughts - I am extremely impressed with this brand, their ingredients as well as the results I have achieved through using them. I love that they use Radish Root as their preservative instead of Phenoxyethanol like some organic and natural brands do. I also love their prices, which for raw, organic products of this quality are extremely wallet friendly! I highly recommend checking out this brand!
