I used to put factor 50 on in the morning and think, grand, that's me sorted. Then I'd be out a few hours later with no sensible way to top it up, short of rubbing another cream all over my face.
So I made the one I wanted myself. Small enough to keep in my bag, and easy enough that
I'd actually use it.
Turns out I wasn't the only one
who needed it..

7 REAL REASONS
your sun cream doesn't make it to teatime.
1. You put it on once, and that's the only time it's touched all day.
Morning skincare, factor 50 on top, out the door. And that's the last your face sees of it. Not because you don’t care about protecting your skin. Because there was never an easy way to top up.
2. You already have make-up on.
Cream can smear or lift the make-up you put on that morning. You’re not going to wipe it all off and start again at work. So you skip the top-up.
3. It stung your eyes last time.
It ran. Your eyes watered. After a few days, you put it back in the drawer. You won’t keep using a sun cream that hurts.
4. It made your skin look grey.
You saw the white cast as soon as you looked in the mirror. You didn’t want to go out like that, so you stopped using it.
5. You left it at home.
The tube sits in the bathroom while you’re out for a walk, out for a coffee with your friends, or at school pick-up. You can’t use what you didn’t bring with you.
6. You stay out longer than you
had planned
A short walk takes an hour. Coffee turns into lunch. By two o’clock, it has been hours since you put on your factor 50. You know you should top it up, but you have no quick way to do it.
7. You just got tired of trying.
The sting, white cast, grease and mess made topping up your Factor 50 hard. After a while, you stopped. And sure why wouldn't you?
See the pattern?
Topping up took too much time and
made too much mess.
So we made it a ten-second job - Lumina Veil. The factor 50 top-up that fits into your day.
A small, sheer beige mineral stick. Keep it in your bag. Swipe it on. Put it away.
How does it fit into your day?
-
After the morning walk, before you get back in the car.
-
On the ninth hole, when you have been out longer than you had planned.
-
At school pick-up, with the sun coming through the windscreen.
-
On the beach, after a swim, after a towel-dry.
-
In town, over a coffee, without going near a mirror.
Small enough for your bag.
Quick enough to use while you are out.

"I hate spending money on expensive products only to find out I am allergic to them. I bring this around in my handbag with me and it takes 10 seconds to top up when I’m out for coffee or doing the shopping."

“The textures are beautifully engineered. They absorb cleanly, layer well, and every step supports the next. You can tell this was built by an engineer, not a marketer.”

“Everyone was always telling me to wear sun cream but I hated the sticky feeling it leaves on my body. Veil is actually so nice on, doesn't sink into my fine lines and gives me a little colour that I've been getting loads of compliments on”
Never get caught bare-faced
at two o'clock again.
Over your moisturiser, ten seconds,
then into your bag.
