1. Preparation: Gather Your Tools and Products

Before you embark on your grooming journey, make sure you have all the necessary tools and Lumin skincare products at your disposal. Head to the bathroom and grab your nail clippers, facial hair trimmer device of choice, tweezers, and your favorite Lumin products, such as our Charcoal Face Wash, Daily Moisturizer, Dark Circle Defense, and Anti-Wrinkle Serum. With these essentials in hand, you're ready to elevate your grooming routine to the next level.

2. Nail Care: Hands and Feet Deserve Attention

Start your weekly grooming routine by giving your nails some well-deserved attention. Trim your fingernails and toenails to a comfortable length, and file them to achieve smooth edges. This simple step can instantly make your hands and feet look more polished and well-maintained. Be sure to not cut your nails too short, and be mindful of any jagged edges. 

3. Exfoliation: Unveil a Fresh Canvas

Exfoliating your skin once a week is crucial to remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and promote a healthy complexion. Lumin’s Charcoal Scrub Deep Detox is perfect for this! Gently massage the exfoliating scrub onto your face and neck, focusing on areas that tend to be rough or prone to congestion. This step will leave your skin feeling rejuvenated and ready for the next stages of your grooming routine. We recommend using the Deep Detox scrub when your skin is feeling particularly grimey–like after doing yard work or after coming back from a workout.

4. Facial Hair Maintenance: Trim and Shape with PrecisionIf you have facial hair, this is the time to trim and shape it with precision. Whether you're rocking a full beard, a stylish stubble, or prefer a clean-shaven look, use your preferred facial hair trimming device to achieve your desired style. Define your jawline, shape your beard, and create clean lines for a polished appearance. Don’t be afraid to find a celebrity with similar facial hair to yours to find inspiration. 

5. Skincare Routine: The Lumin Cleanse, Hydrate, and Defend Ethos

At Lumin we believe that a good skincare routine doesn't have to be overly complicated. Our Cleanse, Hydrate, and Defend ethos. Follow these steps to achieve healthy, radiant skin:

Step 1: Cleanse with Charcoal Face Wash

Start by cleansing your face with Lumin's Charcoal Face Wash. This deep-cleansing formula effectively removes dirt, oil, and impurities, leaving your skin refreshed and revitalized.

Step 2: Hydrate with Daily Moisturizer

After cleansing, apply Lumin's Daily Moisturizer to hydrate and nourish your skin. This lightweight moisturizer locks in moisture, soothes irritation, and promotes a smooth, even complexion. We offer different moisturizers for all skin types. 

Step 3: Defend Against Dark Circles and Wrinkles

Combat signs of aging with Lumin's Dark Circle Defense and Anti-Wrinkle Serum. Gently pat the serum around your eyes to reduce puffiness and dark circles, while the anti-wrinkle serum targets fine lines and promotes a youthful appearance.

6. Body Hair Trimming: Tailored Neatness

Extend your grooming routine to include body hair trimming if desired. Use a body hair trimmer to maintain a neat and groomed look for areas such as the chest, back, and groin. Remember, the goal is to achieve a well-groomed appearance that suits your personal style. Did you know?

7. Final Touches: Scent and Smile

Complete your grooming ritual with a touch of your favorite cologne and a confident smile (go easy on the cologne though - one or two spritzes is plenty). Grooming isn't just about the physical aspects; it's also about boosting your self-confidence and radiating positivity. Remember that a genuine smile is the best accessory you can wear.
