Beauty Booty: Lumene Radiant C Drops

About a week ago I attended this beauty event held in the fashion district in the heart of NYC. Even though I wasn’t feeling the best, I made it my business to brave the cold to see what the beauty gods had to offer.

Not exactly feeling up to reveling in what seemed like a really great party, I scoped out the scene and made a few rounds to several vendors and quickly decided that it was time to head toward the swag bag and make my exit.

After I got home, I checked out the goodies and found that I had obtained a few nice treats. I was elated to know that my trek to the beauty event was not in vain; although I am convinced that the freezing air made my cold even worse, but who cares, that's the sacrifice one makes in the name of beauty!

Here is one of my favorites:


Lumene's Radiant C Beauty Drops Available at CVS stores nationwide for $22

Although this anti-aging skin product came out a few months ago, I had never tried it. So I thought, what the heck? I might as well give it a go since it claims to make skin visibly smoother in 28 days and is supposedly packed with anti-oxidants, berry oils and other great skin enhancing agents. Plus, InStyle claims that fellow BGs Halle Berry and Vanessa Williams are huge fans, which only made me want to try it even more.

After washing my face, I applied the cute orange capsule of moisture to my skin, it tingled a bit, and left my skin feeling both mildy dry and moisturized -- weird, I know. I then applied my tried and true Oil of Olay oil-free moisturizer that I use religiously every night as directed on the Lumene box (they advise you to continue using your regular night creams in addition to one drop/capsule) and went to bed.

I did this regimen for about 5 days and I must say, my skin looks more radiant and clear than prior to using these drops/capsules. Could this all be in my head? I'm not sure, but I can't wait to report back to you once my 28 are up. Hopefully, my skin will only get better! Stay tuned. If you've tried this product, let me know what you think of it.

I'm all for anti aging anything so please do keep me posted. I mean if you've seen a change in just 5 days you'll be transformed in the 23 days left! By the way, I have a new regime because of all your wonderful tips and I definitely see the difference! Thanks BGG!

Hey BGG!

Yes, let us know what you think after 28 days. I'm currently using Philosophy's Microdelivery Peel and I love it. My skin is super soft and I only have to use it about once a week or so :)

Nilla, where do you get this Microdelivery Peel? Give it up! I love trying new products especially if I get the word that it really works!

I love my beauty products, cleaners, toners, moisturiser, soaps and face masks. I love em all. I have not got into anti-aging creams though. I will give that a few more years.
