Textured skin, congestion, dullness — these common skin concerns are often signs that your skin needs a proper reset. Exfoliation is essential to maintaining skin clarity and radiance, but not all exfoliants are created equal.
Luminous 8% Glycolic Scrub is designed to gently slough away dead skin buildup while supporting smoother, more radiant skin. It pairs 8% Glycolic Acid with natural pumice granules to refine skin texture and promote cell turnover, all while keeping your skin calm and hydrated.
🌿 Ingredient Breakdown
Each ingredient has been selected to support skin resurfacing, clarity, and comfort—making it ideal for regular use without compromising your skin barrier.
🧴 Purified Water
The foundation of the formula, acting as a solvent to dissolve active ingredients and create a lightweight, rinseable texture.
🌊 Glycolic Acid (8%)
A powerful alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that breaks down the bonds between dead skin cells, accelerating natural exfoliation. This promotes a brighter, smoother complexion and supports improved skin tone over time.
🪨 Pumice Granules
Finely ground volcanic rock that provides gentle, physical exfoliation. It buffs away surface buildup and rough patches, enhancing the effectiveness of glycolic acid and leaving skin instantly smoother.
🧪 Sodium Hydroxide
Used to balance pH and ensure that the glycolic acid functions effectively without being overly harsh. Helps keep the formulation safe and skin-compatible.
🧴 Polysorbate 60
An emulsifier that ensures even distribution of oil- and water-based components for consistent application and rinse-off.
🛡 Methylchloroisothiazolinone & Methylisothiazolinone
Effective preservatives used in small amounts to keep the product fresh and free from microbial contamination.
🌿 Cetearyl Alcohol
A fatty alcohol that acts as a mild emollient and stabiliser—contributing to a smooth, creamy texture without drying out the skin.
🌱 Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice
Soothes and hydrates the skin while buffering the intensity of exfoliation. It’s known for its anti-inflammatory properties, making the scrub more suitable for sensitive or reactive skin types.
🌀 Cyclopentasiloxane
A lightweight silicone that enhances spreadability and provides a silky after-feel. It helps prevent moisture loss without clogging pores.
🔬 Disodium EDTA
A chelating agent that stabilises the formula by binding to metal ions, improving shelf life and efficacy.
💊 Tocopherol Acetate (Vitamin E)
A stable form of Vitamin E that acts as an antioxidant, helping protect the skin from free radical damage and environmental stressors.
💧 Sorbitol
A plant-derived humectant that attracts moisture to the skin’s surface, keeping skin soft and hydrated post-exfoliation.
✨ Why Formulate a Dual-Action Scrub?
Luminous combines two exfoliation methods:
-
Glycolic Acid promotes natural cell turnover and smooths skin from within.
-
Pumice Granules provide surface-level exfoliation for immediate softness and clarity.
This dual-action approach delivers both instant results and long-term improvements in texture, tone, and radiance. It's ideal for those who want a deep refresh without relying on harsh or stripping exfoliants.
🧴 Best Practices for Use
-
Apply to clean, damp skin.

-
Rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat dry.
