The New Ritual: Skinimalism and the Art of Scent-Layering
In a world that moves fast and asks more of us every day, the skinimalism movement
reminds us of a simple truth: less is more. It’s about choosing fewer products—but
better ones. It’s about turning everyday routines into moments of calm, intention, and
sensory luxury.
At Lumira, this philosophy has always been at the heart of what we do. And with the
reintroduction of our Hand & Body Wash and Hand & Body Lotion, now in refillable 350ml bottles, we invite you to create rituals that are both deeply nourishing and
effortlessly elegant.
Step 1: Cleanse with Purpose
Our new Hand & Body Wash is more than a cleansing product—it’s the beginning of
your ritual.
Formulated with a natural, gentle base, it works to cleanse, protect, and soothe
without stripping the skin. Each application becomes a moment of stillness, softly
enveloped in one of three fine fragrance blends:
- Balinese Ylang Ylang – sensual and serene
- Persian Rose – romantic and powdery
- Paradiso del Sole – bright, radiant and sun-drenched
Use in the shower to awaken the senses, or keep by the sink for an elevated
handwashing ritual throughout the day. The soft, lingering scent prepares your skin
for layering.
Step 2: Nourish and Perfume
After cleansing, lock in hydration with our fast-absorbing Hand & Body Lotion,
enriched with Kakadu Plum and Mango Butter. This formula not only nourishes and
protects—it also subtly fragrances the skin.
Because each lotion shares a scent profile with our Wash, you’re left with a delicate
base of fragrance that complements, rather than competes with, your signature
scent.
Step 3: The Art of Scent-Layering
Here’s where skinimalism becomes luxury: you’ve already prepped your skin with a
clean, hydrated base infused with fine fragrance. Now, choose your Lumira Eau de
Parfum or Perfume Oil to finish the ritual.
Layering Tip 1: Apply fragrance on freshly moisturised skin—it helps the scent last
longer.
Tip 2: Choose a matching scent (like Persian Rose Lotion + Persian Rose Perfume Oil)
for a more amplified trail.
Tip 3: Or mix across families for a personal signature—Balinese Ylang Ylang Wash
followed by Tuscan Fig Perfume Oil creates a grounded, creamy floral.
Why Less is More
Gone are the days of 10-step routines. Skinimalism champions intention over
excess—and in the world of fragrance, this means choosing high-quality, multi-
sensory products that elevate both skin and spirit.
With just a few steps, your daily routine becomes a curated ritual: cleansing,
hydrating, and finishing with scent. You feel nourished. You smell beautiful. You’re
ready for whatever the day holds.
