Before you even begin reading this, I request you to partake in a small exercise. Go and look at yourself closely in the mirror. Examine your face down to the minute detail and then come back and read the remainder of this article.

Are you completely satisfied with what you saw? Did you see a smooth unblemished surface devoid of any age spots, under eye bags or pigmentation? I didn't when I looked at the skin on my face.

It's war out there! Starting with bad genetics that one can do nothing about, there are myriad factors like bad cosmetics, bad hygiene, bad diet, lack of sleep, weather conditions, stress, pollution, sun exposure, bad lifestyle habits (smoking and alcohol), ageing and many more that can take its toll on your skin.

The skin, the largest organ in the human body that breathes, absorbs, protects and reacts. The only organ that has to bear the signs of all the above mentioned factors. And, most certainly the only organ that plays a very crucial role in enhancing the physical appearance of a person.

You might spend thousands of dollars getting the right outfit or wearing the most expensive jewelry. True, you may be noticed because of that. But smooth unblemished bright radiant 'baby' skin, now that's going to make you really stand out.

Ever noticed the spotless bright skin that babies have? The ultra-radiant look of unblemished pearl skin. That's what we all have when we are born but thanks to the hands of time and the factors mentioned above, we gradually reach a stage where irreparable damage is done.

Can we ever restore our skin to its heyday? Yes, you can. The best part is that you do not have to resort to botox injections (the plastic look) or toxic chemicals. No concealers (mercury anyone?) Or foundation either.

After doing some thorough research and hearing some beauty industry buzz, I was introduce to Lumnaskin, a skin brightening product introduced by Dermagevity Skin Care in 2009. The product contains an extremely potent formulation that is derived from completely natural sources. The product is ideal for all skin types (Latin, Caucasian, African, Indian and Asian), Lumnaskin is known for its proprietary "Tri-Dermal Time Released Technology" in that it illuminates, brightens and exfoliates your dermis simultaneously.

So What Is In Lumnaskin?

Almost all skin lighteners (also known as skin brighteners) on the market today contain chemical derivatives (Hydroquinone or Kojic Acid) and they often can do more harm than good in the long run. But Lumnaskin is a powerful mixture of potent ingredients of natural plant origins. Such as, Seaweed Extract, Hyaluronic Acid, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Extract and Alchemilla Vulgaris (Lady's Mantle) Extract. The product is encapsulated into a powerful base formula composition. Many of the ingredients have been used since centuries for treating different skin conditions:

Biowhite, the most important ingredient in Lumnaskin is a combination of mulberry, saxifrage, scutellaria root, and grape extracts and can make a significant difference to your complexion within weeks. It also is a skin protector and will prevent further pigmentation on the skin.

Gigawhite, the next key ingredient boosts collagen production and also has a documented whitening effect of 5%.

Hyaluronic Acid will iron out the crevices. Yes, it makes skin suppler thus making troublesome wrinkles and fine lines less noticeable.

After effects. Within the first couple of months of using Lumnaskin you should notice …

A marked improvement in your complexion
Diminishing pigmented areas
An overall firmness and smoothness on the skin surface
Age spots reducing in size and color
Less fine lines and wrinkles
Even the most hard to reach places show improvement

Thanks to advancement in scientific research, the manufacturers of Lumnaskin have successfully formulated a skin lightening product using natural ingredients with safe and potent skin lightening effects. If you are looking for an effective skin brightener, then this product could be for you.
