New from Lumene, the Invisible Illumination collection is a skincare-infused makeup range that helps brighten, hydrate and perfect skin for a naturally glowing complexion instantly and over time.
Featuring four new weightless, water-based formulas enriched with Nordic skincare ingredients, the Invisible Illumination products are 100% vegan, gluten free and cruelty free.
Lumene Invisible Illumination Instant Glow Beauty Serum ($29.99)
Infused with Arctic spring water, cloudberry seed extract and pearlescent pigments, this skincare-enriched serum foundation is all about enhancing your skin’s natural radiance for a more even and luminous-looking complexion.
As comfortable to wear as skincare, Lumene Instant Glow Beauty Serum has a lightweight fluid texture that blends very easily. It feels hydrating (but not heavy) and provides sheer coverage with a dewy glow.
And not to worry, there’s no shimmer or sparkle in the formula! It can be used alone or under makeup to boost hydration and glow factor.
Basically, it’s more like a tinted moisturizer that’s perfect for a natural, no makeup-makeup look with a healthy radiance. I find myself reaching for it when I’m just not in the mood for a full face of foundation but still want a little coverage to even out my complexion.
If you have dull, dry skin like me, you will love this smoothing and hydrating serum foundation but those with combination to oily skin might find its finish too dewy, as it does ramp up the shine factor.
As much as I am loving this product, I really wish it was available in more shades. It only comes in three shades – Universal Light, Universal Medium and Universal Dark. Although the shades are sheer and forgiving enough to adapt to several different skin tones, the limited shade range is definitely a drawback.
Here are the swatches of the shades Light and Dark:
Lumene Invisible Illumination Watercolor Bronzer ($23)
Infused with Arctic spring water and pearlescent pigments, this lightweight and beautifully blendable liquid bronzer adds an instantly fresh, sun-kissed glow to your skin. The shade is called Summer Glow
It has a soft luminous finish that’s not overly dewy and the sheer color lasts all day! I find the finish of most powder bronzers a bit too matte (or some have too much shimmer) so I am loving this liquid formula that adds a little luminosity, without any shimmer. It makes your face look healthy and radiant—not dusty.
So if powder bronzers are not your thing, you will love this lightweight liquid glow-getter! It gives you the good kind of glow (with skincare benefits to boot!) and is also super easy to blend with fingers.
This Watercolor Bronzer can also be used as shading drops to give the Instant Glow Beauty Serum (or any of your favorite foundations) a warm, bronzed tone. This one is a must-have for summer!
Lumene Invisible Illumination Instant Illuminizer ($24.99)
This liquid highlighter contains pearlescent luminizing pigments to recreate the natural radiance of healthy skin. Available in three shades, the lightweight liquid formula blends effortlessly adding a gorgeous glow. Again, no shimmer or sparkles! Simply dot, blend and dash out the door.
The Instant Illuminizer can be used as such or on top of your makeup for a naturally glowing finish. You can also mix it into your moisturizer to get a lit-from-within glow! The shade I have (below) is called Rosy Dawn, perfect for a rosy and radiant look.
Lumene Invisible Illumination Watercolor Blush ($24.99)
This liquid blush adds a healthy flush of color to your complexion. Enriched with Arctic spring water, antioxidant-rich cloudberry and luminizing pigments, the weightless formula is well-pigmented and applies easily. Just dot and blend evenly on the apple of your cheeks with fingertips.
The formula is buildable and can be layered easily for a nice pop of color or you can keep it sheer. It has a beautiful luminous finish and I love that the color is pretty long-lasting!
The Watercolor Blush is available in two shades – Pink Blossom and Coral Bloom. The shade I have is called Pink Blossom (swatches below)
