Our mission and purpose is for you to feel happy and confident in your own skin.
If you have ever struggled to find an effective facial cleanser which not only agrees with your skin but also feels indulgent and revitalising, and is completely natural and organic, then you will love Luminous Lavender.
Oil cleansing is a process which both cleanses and moisturises your skin. In simple terms, oil dissolves oil. Older hardened fatty-acid lipids (oils) in the skin are dissolved, and the excess oil is then removed along with dirt, impurities, dead skin, make-up and sunscreen to leave your skin soft and smooth. This amazing technique has been used in virtually all civilisations including the Romans, Egyptians and ancient Greeks who all knew of the incredible benefits.
This is a much gentler process for your skin than the majority of laboratory-made cleansers, most of which contain harsh surfactants, synthetic preservatives or mineral oil (petrochemicals). Many of these ingredients can deliver superficial results but over time they can affect your skin by stripping away the natural fatty acid lipids in your face which form part of your skin's protective barrier, and leave it looking, and feeling, dry and irritated.
Our skin is not designed to be exposed to these heavily processed elements day after day. In the same way that we are all more aware that eating highly processed foods is not good for our health and wellbeing, there is growing understanding that the same principle applies to what we put on our skin.
If you have a persistent and longstanding skin issue, a very important element to consider is your diet. We found with our daughter Coraline that what you eat is so important and that by eliminating, or reducing, dairy and gluten intake for example, chronic skin conditions can often reduce or disappear very quickly.

The long-term goal is to save the world from plastic waste. Did you know that currently only nine percent of the plastic produced globally is recycled? Although highly important, enhancing the recycling of conventional plastic isn’t enough to solve the global plastic crisis.
We are working with Sulapac who have developed our packaging. It is intended to replace conventional plastic with a material that behaves like plastic, but which biodegrades within a similar time frame to tree leaves.
- Plant-based packaging - Industrially Compostable and Biodegradable Pot. 100% Bio-Based and 100% Ocean safe.
- Microplastic-free and fully biodegradable material innovation based on renewable ingredients.
- Fully compostable using local council collection.
- If your local council doesn't have composting facilities, then the pot can be placed in landfill where it will fully biodegrade leaving zero trace or impact on our planet.
- If it accidentally ends up in nature, it doesn’t harm the ecosystem in any way.
- The main components of the pots are wood and plant-based binders which are sustainably sourced, and which biodegrade quickly and fully into CO2, water and biomass leaving no microplastics behind.
- The wood comes from FSC certified industry side streams (waste products). Made of completely non-toxic raw materials, which are safe for you and for the environment.
- All boxes and labels are printed using recycled or FSC recyclable paper and card, and eco-toners which are not harmful to the planet.
