1. Start With a Fresh Face
The first step for flawless makeup application is starting with a clean face, so cleanse your complexion with Lumene Sensitive Touch Cleansing Wipes. If you suffer from sensitive skin, these gentle wipes – made with 100% organic arctic linen seed extract – will effectively cleanse your skin without burning, stinging or otherwise irritating.

This two-for-one punch delivers essential nutrients to the delicate skin around the eyes, leaving them looking younger and well rested. The daytime gel will help increase firmness and tighten the skin around the eyes, while the night cream will moisturize and make skin look more supple.
