The Documents

Skincare brands have these documents. They just don’t show you. Ours live here. Permanently.

The June 10 finding

The lab documentation for our original formula listed methylisothiazolinone (MIT), a preservative restricted for leave-on cosmetics, among its ingredients. We closed the store the same day we read it, cancelled the launch, and retired the formula entirely. The full safety data sheet is available by email: write to support@lumiceskin.com and we’ll send it, lightly redacted for supplier details only.

Full ingredient list (INCI)

The complete ingredient list, in order of concentration, built on 10% Vitamin C (3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid), the single active:

Aqua · 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid · Glycerin · Glycereth-26 · Betaine · Hydrolyzed Protein · Carbomer · Cellulose Gum · Triethanolamine · Fenugreek Oil · PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil · Phenoxyethanol · Fragrance

Read it plainly: there is no Vitamin E and no Hyaluronic Acid in this formula, and it is lightly fragranced. If you were expecting either, we’d rather you find out here than in the bottle.

What isn’t on this page yet

Two documents are missing, and we’re naming them rather than leaving a gap: the plain-language safety data summary for the formula, and the certificate of analysis for Batch 002, the batch now shipping. Neither is posted here yet. Until they are, we don’t cite them as proof anywhere on this site. That’s what the rule below means in practice.


The standing rule

If a claim can’t point to a document on this page, we don’t make it. That’s the whole policy, and it’s why this page existed before the product did.

The formula passed our bar. Batch 002 is shipping now.
