The Lighter Shield: zinc oxide that doesn’t look like zinc oxide.
The sun is the number one ager of skin. For about two thousand years, humanity’s answer has been to hide from it: pastes, parasols, hats and, in one memorable case, a full-head beach mask. Luminos PLUS is a different answer. It is a daily moisturizer built on pharmaceutical-grade, uncoated zinc oxide, a mineral that blocks UV light, so it works as a lighter shield against the ambient, everyday kind of sun without making you look like a mime.
It is not a sunscreen, and it does not pretend to be one. It is what goes on under one.
What makes it a new category
- A lighter shield. Zinc oxide blocks and scatters UV. In a moisturizer, it does that quietly, on ordinary days, without looking like sunscreen.
- Uncoated, pharmaceutical-grade zinc oxide. The classic skin mineral in its natural form, with nothing between it and your skin. Soothing, with a long record of use on skin.
- Botanical care. Avocado, carrot seed, black seed, aloe and shea, chosen to nourish, soothe and support the skin barrier.
- Moisturizer feel. No sting, no heavy film, no mime.
What you’ll experience
- Skin that feels calm, comfortable and moisturized from the first application
- A more even, naturally radiant look, without shimmer or shine
- A smoother-looking texture and softer-looking fine lines with consistent daily use
- A calmer look and less visible redness, including in skin prone to redness
- The appearance of fewer dark spots and more even tone over time
Key ingredients
- Uncoated zinc oxide: A mineral with a long record on skin. Blocks UV light and soothes.
