Product Spotlight: Lumivive
I am a pessimist when it comes to new skin care products. I am a firm believer that NOTHING works, until I see it work. So, when SkinMedica rolled out Lumivive, touting it as the next generation in skin care, I predictably rolled my eyes.
SkinMedica describes Lumivive as a “multitasking” skin care product that protects and restores your skin. The truth is, with 
the ever growing risk of skin damage from electronic radiation and environmental factors, you need to form a line of defense against these harmful conditions and create a regimen to restore your skin’s health. But is Lumivive the solution?
I decided I would give Lumivive the chance to show me what it could do for my skin. I faithfully applied my Lumivive morning and night, used my moisturizer and sunscreen and waited for the results.
After 2 weeks I noticed that a darkened patch on my driver side cheek had lightened significantly. I also noticed that the chronic redness on my cheek and nose had improved. After 4 weeks I realized my skin in general looked, younger, healthier and felt better.
Since then I have added a retinol at night and a growth factor to my regimen. I have also upped my sunscreen game to include Total Defense and Repair, a sunscreen and anti-aging product in one that protects agains infrared damage that can cause redness and irritation.
My routine:
Morning
- Cleanse.
- TNS Recovery Complex
- Lumivive- Day Formula
- Total Defense and Repair
Evening
- Cleanse
- TNS Recovery Complex
- Lumivive Night Formula
- Retinol Complex
- Moisturize ( I alternate between Cerave and Dermal Repair by SkinMedica)
My skin is looking healthier and happier than it has in a long time! I can honestly say Lumivive works!
