Glow Dasha

lately, LUMITY has been quietly woven into my mornings, evenings and everything in between.

i’ve become more interested than ever before in what happens when beauty starts much earlier than the bathroom mirror. the women’s morning & night supplements are a big part of that for me lately. more clarity and energy through the day, a softer landing at night, and better sleep. with 28 vitamins, minerals, amino acids, adaptogens and omega 3s, they’re designed to support hormonal balance too. and somewhere in there, my rather temperamental perimenopausal skin seems to have found a little more calm.

their Nutrient Rich 4-in-1 Cleanse might have accidentally become one of my favourite things in my bathroom. it’s a rich botanical cleansing balm with bamboo charcoal, and my skin feels ridiculously good after using it. soft, nourished, completely comfortable.

my favourite thing about it? leaving it on for about 30 minutes and letting it double as a mask.

then i massage in their beautiful Facial Oil, a concentrated blend of plant oils and extracts with a grounding aromatherapy scent that makes the whole ritual feel rather indulgent… this is where my evening routine becomes a whole mood.

and the Body Oil… i’m very picky with body oils because i want nourishment without feeling like i’ve been dipped in olive oil. this one gets it right. lightweight, beautifully silky, lovely scent and especially good on my dry skin.

it feels like a few really beautiful things that make taking care of myself feel good from the inside out. and at 46, that is exactly the kind of beauty routine i want 🤍

and since i’m sharing the deals, i thought i’d show you what’s actually been making its way into my routine lately…

the Remedy Multi-Depth Moisture Advanced Hydrating Serum is basically a glass of water for my always-thirsty skin. one of those simple pleasures i’m very happy to have in my routine. it gives up to 72-hour hydration, so my skin stays feeling comfortably hydrated long after i’ve applied it.

the Copper Peptide Complex Advanced Firming Serum has become my first serum, am + pm. i’ve been loving it for the firmer, more elastic feel, but also for what i’m seeing in my skin overall. less redness, a more even-looking tone… it’s quietly become a very important step.

and Remedy Face & Neck Firming Retinal Stick is just such a clever format. i love how easy it makes adding retinaldehyde to my nighttime routine. it gives me that retinoid step without feeling too intense on my skin, which makes it something i actually look forward to using.

then there’s Calecim Contour Lifting Eye Cream, a long-time love of mine and still my favourite for the delicate eye area. i mostly keep this one for my pm routine. their Multi-Action Cream has also been getting a lot of love in my nighttime routine. i reach for it pretty frequently when my skin needs a little extra support. it helps boost collagen + elastin while also calming inflammation, and my perimenopausal skin really seems to appreciate this kind of extra attention.

sonsie faves. and from slow days away 🤍

i’m glad this Olverum 🌿 Natural Wellbeing beauty arrived just in time for vacation. lots of pool time, a little sunbathing, and my skin really enjoyed having this around.

a beautiful blend of apricot kernel and poppy seed oils, together with Alaria Esculenta extract, leaves skin feeling soft, smooth and replenished, exactly what i needed after all that sun and water.

and that grounding botanical scent… one of the reasons i love this oil in the first place. it instantly makes the whole ritual feel a little more special.

also, i appreciate how beautifully it absorbs without leaving that greasy feeling, just soft skin with a subtle satin glow.

i can’t believe i haven’t talked about SCENTIANA Silkening Body Scrub yet. it has quietly become one of the most luxurious body care products i’ve ever used, and i’m not exaggerating here.

the exfoliation is incredibly refined. it smooths away dullness without ever feeling abrasive, while a blend of nourishing botanical oils and antioxidant-rich ingredients replenishes the skin at the same time. instead of reaching for a body cream afterwards, i usually find myself not wanting one at all. my skin already feels incredibly soft, supple and deeply moisturized.

what i love most is the finish. my skin looks silky, satin-like, healthy and effortlessly radiant. the kind of skin that simply looks well cared for.

the scent deserves a paragraph of its own. jasmine, vetiver and sandalwood come together in the most elegant way. it’s feminine in the most understated sense of the word. comforting, beautifully composed and quietly luxurious. the fragrance lingers on the skin for hours without ever feeling overpowering. on the days i use it, i almost never reach for perfume. it simply doesn’t feel necessary.

what keeps impressing me about scentiana is their philosophy. every product feels undeniably luxurious, yet every formula is rooted in skin health. they aren’t just designed to make your skin look beautiful in the moment, they’re created to leave it healthier with every use.

it’s a rare combination, and one that keeps me coming back.

warm days, all-black, and MERME Berlin I Minimal Skincare Fresh Dew Face Mist. that’s the mood.

organic rose water, antioxidant-rich mushroom extract, wild yam root… everything i want in a face mist. love that it’s completely fragrance-free, yet still has the most beautiful natural rose water scent.

Remedy Science® newnesses. i knew exactly what caught my attention the moment i saw these

GHK-Cu. that was all i needed to see. it’s one of the most researched copper peptides, known for supporting collagen, skin repair and elasticity. after loving it as an injectable peptide, seeing it in a serum instantly made me want to try it.

the Face & Neck Firming Stick was just as exciting. retinaldehyde has become one of my favorite vitamin A derivatives, and pairing it with spilanthol makes so much sense to me. one supports skin renewal, while the other is known for helping improve the look of firmness and expression lines. with my neck becoming the area i’m paying much more attention to these days, this one immediately stood out.

these only arrived yesterday, so i’m just getting started. no review yet, just genuine excitement to see how they fit into my routine.
