Marini SkinSolutions Luminate XC is a concentrated brightening retinol lotion that helps reduce the appearance of dark spots, uneven tone, fine lines and wrinkles in a single evening step. Luminate XC (previously Luminate Face Lotion MD) comes from Marini SkinSolutions (formerly Jan Marini) and is the higher-strength option in the Luminate range, best for skin already acclimated to high-strength retinoids.

The patented formula brings together several brightening technologies - Nonapeptide-1, non-staining turmeric, alpha-arbutin, hexylresorcinol and concentrated licorice root - with all-trans-retinol, green tea extract and bisabolol. Together they address multiple pathways associated with uneven skin tone while softening the look of fine lines and wrinkles. In a published, blinded split-face study, the Luminate formula was clinically shown to reduce the appearance of discolouration for brighter looking skin. Marini SkinSolutions Luminate XC is a lightweight, fragrance-free brightening retinol lotion for dark spots and uneven skin tone.

Adore Your Skin was founded by Becci, an aesthetic nurse with over 20 years in specialist skincare and medical aesthetics, whose clients have always come to her for honest product recommendations. Luminate XC is her pick for seasoned retinol users who want tone and texture looked after in one evening step, rather than layering a separate brightening product on top.

FAQS

Is Luminate XC the same as the old Jan Marini Luminate Face Lotion MD? +

Luminate XC is the current name for the higher-strength Luminate lotion previously sold as Luminate Face Lotion MD. The brand has also changed its name, from Jan Marini to Marini Skin Solutions, so both the carton and the product name look different from the bottle you may already own.

The brand has not announced a change to the formula. The full ingredient list is shown under Other Ingredients, so you can compare it with your existing bottle.

What is the difference between Luminate and Luminate XC? +

Both share the same brightening technologies. Luminate XC has a higher concentration and is best for those already acclimated to high-strength retinoids. If you are new to retinol, standard Luminate is the place to start.

Is this a good retinol for dark spots and uneven skin tone? +

Marini Skin Solutions Luminate XC combines concentrated retinol with Nonapeptide-1, non-staining turmeric, alpha-arbutin, hexylresorcinol and licorice root. The Luminate formula has been clinically shown to reduce the appearance of discolouration for brighter looking skin, while the retinol helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

How often should I use Marini Skin Solutions Luminate XC? +

Apply sparingly over the entire face every other evening for the first 1-2 weeks, then slowly increase, as tolerated, to 1-2 times daily. If irritation occurs, reduce how often you apply it to give your skin more time to acclimate.

Is it normal for my skin to flake when I start using Luminate XC? +

Yes. Some redness or flaking is normal as your skin acclimates to this powerful retinol. Use just one pump, keep to every other evening at first, and drop back the frequency if your skin feels uncomfortable.

Can I use Luminate XC around my eyes? +

Avoid going past the orbital bone. The skin of the eye area is delicate, so keep this product to the face and use a dedicated eye product there instead.

Do I need to wear sunscreen while using Luminate XC? +

Yes. This product contains retinol (vitamin A), and a broad-spectrum sunscreen is recommended every day while you are using it.

Which skin types is Luminate XC suitable for? +

The brand recommends it for combination, dry and oily skin. It is fragrance free, paraben free and vegan. Because of its higher strength, it suits skin that is already used to retinol.

Can I use Luminate XC during pregnancy or while breastfeeding? +

No. Luminate XC contains retinol (vitamin A), and the brand states that use in pregnancy and while breastfeeding is not recommended. Speak to your midwife or GP about which products are suitable for you.
