Glowing with Lumity -#Chicandstylish #LINKUP

Morning my friends.
I've had a super week, starting with a new keep fit class early on Monday morning, it really set me up for the day.  I started the abs, core and more class that was fast and furious getting me running on all cylinders for the day, it's amazing how taking a class like this can make one feel.  I was ready to face anything!
Which was just as well, because my next appointment was having my eyebrows semi-permanently tattooed.  If you ever thought about having it done I say "go for it" - eyebrows frame the face, and it's the best thing I've done, especially as I don't have many brows to show off.  I'm thrilled with the results, and will be showing them off once they're all heeled up.
Straight after that I met up with Esther Ruby for some photos - I've been styling a really stunning gold lurex dress three ways, so please do give me a look on Monday to check the options - you might pick up some inspiration my friends.

With a very basic skin care routine, I've been wanting to branch out in the beauty care area for a while, so when Lumity* asked if I'd be interested in reviewing some products I jumped at the chance.  Find out what I thought about their Morning and Night Supplements, Facial Oil and 4 in 1 Cleanser.

Items marked with * have been gifted to me, however these are 100% my own honest comments.


Lumity was formed after years of research into why we age. It's a result of many processes happening one after the other - tipping the balance between damage & repair.  When we grow old the body builds up damage, resulting in inefficiencies and degeneration.

Quoting from the founder of Lumity Sara Palmer Hussey, PhD....


"My aim was to create products that offer tangible benefits.  I thought if we could offer people something that noticeably improves the way they feel on a daily basis and gives them an effortlessly healthy, glowing appearance, they will have the energy and freedom to focus more on the things they love."


Don't be put off by the colour - this 4 in 1 cleanser* does exactly what it says it will do, with no need for other products, Lumity makes cleansing, make-up removal, exfoliating and nourishing so easy.  I hate having various creams & potions for different jobs, this makes it so much easier.  I just lightly work it into my face, avoiding the eye area, just before getting into the shower.  Rinsing it off with the warm water and a flannel.  Just after that I tend to clean my eyelash extensions with baby shampoo, rinsing them under the shower too.

The day and night supplements* are in soft gel form, swallow 3 morning and evening with a glass of water (we must keep our water intake up too!)
A clinically-proven formulation of amino acids, vitamins, minerals and omegas for around-the-clock healthy beauty support.

Lumity's 2-step approach works around the clock to deliver the right support at the right time.  The clever team of nutrients contained in Lumity's clinically-tested formula sustain optimum health, vitality & beauty all day, all night.
Promoting:
Vitality & brain health,
Beautiful skin, hair & nails,
Protection against oxidative stress,
A healthy immune system,
Optimum nutrient absorption & metabolism.


I found the soft gels easy to take and they have no taste which I thought very helpful.  I've felt a bit clearer since taking the supplements and my skin feels so much better - the combination of both supplement and facial products certainly do feel like they're doing their job.  It'll be interesting to follow the results, as I feel very positive about them.




I've saved the best till last with the Skin Nutrients Facial Oil* which was a dream to try.  I used it twice a day, morning and night and has fast become on of my favourite skin essentials for my new skin care ritual.  It feels obviously oily when first applied, but after a few minutes it sinks in to create a gorgeously smooth surface that feels soft and silky.  I'm hooked on the smell, it's a delighful blend of 8 essential oils - all giving out positive and up-lifting vibes.
I'm hooked on this new beauty product.



A few drops is all you need - gently smooth into your face avoiding the delicate eye area which I carefully patted a tiny amount with my middle finger.




Overall results were actually much better than I had expected.  I'm quite set in my ways and don't often look at other products.  This may definitely be a game changer.  I'm so happy with the way my skin feels and looks. My face feels radiant after application & unlike other products stays that way basically for the rest of the day!  My skin feels smooth, plump and soft.  I'll be replacing the oil and cleanser once these are used - Lumity have some super collections and really generous prices that start at £28 for the skin discovery gift set - you can also benefit from the Black Friday bargains too (free facial oil or cleanser when you spend over £50 - they offer free UK delivery too) - I've got my eye on the Luxurious Jade Roller 😉
