New dispensing containers
I like the lightweight moisturizer. You can feel a difference from the normal moisturizer, and each has its place. But I strongly dislike the new dispenser. It’s too tall to have in the bathroom counter. It went from looking great in my tray to wanting to hide it under the sink.

Nothing short of miraculous. My skin has always been extremely greasy. In fact two hors after I've washed my face my skin is just pouring out grease. I've tried so many products including some where I've had to take out a mortgage to afford them, all to no avail. I chanced on Lumin looking for body wash and found this moisturiser. I put it on first thing after my morning shower and believe it or not my face is still not shiny by the evening. So all power to you guys and thanks so much.

Fantastic Moisturizer In An Awkward Dispenser
After trying several other skincare brands, I switched to Lumin via the free trial set and eventually a complete two-month order. I've been using the Super Light Moisturizer both morning and night, and I can confidently say I'm delighted with the results.
Other moisturisers I've used left my skin feeling overly oily with an undesirable shine, but this one does the job perfectly. My skin feels hydrated, with no noticeable dry patches and doesn't leave any shine, sticky texture or excess oil on my face throughout the day. I'd highly recommend it to anyone with oily skin.
However, the dispenser makes it difficult to tell how much you have left, and I've found it awkward to actually press down on the pump without it spinning closed unless I hold it in a particular way. It's an amazing product, but the packaging could be improved.
