Jan Marini Marini Luminate® Face Lotion

I was a little worried to use a product with retinol so I took my time and slowly increased the amount used. I still only use it once a day, during the night before bed. I also make sure to have sunscreen on my face if I do go out during the day, and mostly try to stay in the shade whenever possible. Im new to retinol so I didnt want to take any chances with skin sensitivity. Luckily, I never had any irritation or reaction to it. Ive been using this for almost 2 months now. I use this as a prevention for my skin and so far it is great. There is no heavy perfume or scent in this product, which I really appreciate. The consistency makes it very easy to apply all over the face and my skin absorbs it pretty quickly. It didnt leave any uncomfortable feeling such as tingling, itching, greasy, or sticky. I dont have any specific sun spots to target so I dont know if it is minimizing any discoloration, but my skin looks great from the 2 months of usage. Ive seen this brand around for ages but never got the chance to try it until now. After trying this face lotion, I would love to explore more of their other products, perhaps something without retinol.

This is a multifunctional product that takes care of metabolism, hyperpigmentation, and aging - those are exactly my current skin concerns.

The stunning thing is its ingredient list, for example, I see:
Retinol that is great for anti-aging and acne,
Hexylresorcinol that contributes towards a more even tone complexion,
Nonapeptide-1 that lessens hyperpigmentation,
EGCG that reduces melanin secretion and production,

I have only been using this product for a month, but Ive already seen my skin looking smoother. Jan Marini has given me an impressive first impression.

*For people who have sensitive skin, you might want to gradually increase the frequency as your skin becomes more tolerant.

I am in my early 50s. For the last few years, I have been following a multi-step skincare routine that I found on a beauty site. I have it taped to my mirror, but I know my routine pretty well by now. The evening routine calls for Retinol so Ive been using Retinol products regularly for a while now. This light cream has an easy to use pump dispenser. Ive been using just one pump per evening. It has a very light, pleasant smell to it. It absorbs well. It leaves a luminous look to my face. I didnt see that as one of the descriptions for it, so it may just be a coincidence. Its non-irritating. It doesnt leave any stickiness or greasiness feeling behind. Its a lot easier to use than the little pearls that I have to break open, so I like this a lot!

This is a great lotion, but the price is crazy high. So while it works well, its not a great value. But if youre looking to splurge, I say go for it!

Ive heard big things about Jan Marini skincare. Never tried it til now. This lotion is lightweight and doesnt make my face feel bogged down and heavy - which is especially important in the am when im wearing skincare stuff, sunscreens & makeup. But while its lightweight, it also feels incredibly moisturizing to my skin. I have been switching back and forth between am and pm use with this and am happy to keep going to see results. I have sun spots on my cheek, and a red patch on my other cheek. Hoping Jan Marini helps to address this along with my other products. So far, only a handful of products have ever truly made improvements. Maybe I can add this one to that list, too.

This lotion is the real deal.

Despite always being super careful about sunscreen use and sun exposure, my age began catching up with my skin when I turned 40 last year. My once pale, clear skin now has sunspots, rough patches, and uneven tone caused by rosacea. Its kind of a mess.

I try to take care of my face and do my best to address these issues, but theyre stubborn! Im always on the lookout for a good moisturizer, in particular, that may help. Ive tried a LOT of products. So I dont really get my hopes up anymore. But every so often, something comes along that really surprises me. This is one such product.

Ive been using it nightly as the last step in my skincare routine for about a month now. My complexion has evened out considerably. No more random red patches or dry spots. And my sun spots are noticeably fading. Pretty impressive.

This product is definitely pricey. I dont always subscribe to the whole "you get what you pay for" idea, but I think its true in this case. At least it seems to be for me.

Im thrilled with the results Ive seen from this product. Highly recommend.
