Sunday Riley Luna Sleeping Night Oil - 35ml

Since this oil has helped me to gain my beautiful skin back after s rough time that had destroyed my skin? I would like to address issues some have had with Luna: I don’t know what it is, but this oil is phenomenal and has magic powers. Since the first time I used it, I saw my skin improve during the night like never before. At first the smell was odd but after a few days I started to love how different and earthy it is. It has become my favorite moment of my routine and I don’t want to go without it. The smell grounds me and reminds me of healing herbs. We are so used to artificial perfumes, that we can’t appreciate the nature’s true smell anymore. It is pricey but a few drops are enough and I use it every other day to give my skin a one day break from retinol. The large size is usually the most convenient and goes a long way. At times sets are even more convenient. I like to warm up the drops in my hand and breathe it in, then press it into my skin. I tap it in lightly with my fingertips as if it was raining. This way the oil gets absorbed completely and my skin doesn’t stay oily. That is my ritual. It feels amazing. Together with the Good Genes it becomes a very powerful duo. Look out for a set with both, it’s worth it. My skin is much more hydrate d when I use Luna, softer and after a few weeks it gained a lot of elasticity back. That was a big surprise. This has made the small lines disappear and the very accentuated ones on my forehead are much less visible. And my skin looks healthy, bright and glows since I started to use it. As to any breakouts: I must say that I always use it with Good Genes and it probably helps. I had a patch that broke out in the beginning. It’s a patch that is hormones related and was never completely smooth and even. But after a week or two it cleared and since then I don’t have any blemishes. The whole face is even and smooth with almost no texture if I don’t skip my routine steps.  Retinol pushes all of the blemishes that are under the skin and that we don’t see yet because they hide in the deeper skin layers, to the surface and this is why some experience a massive breakout in the beginning. It’s not an adverse reaction to the product, it means that it works and is cleaning the deeper layers. It pushes blemishes that would break out later on, to the surface all at the same time! This is where the AHAs are needed. They clean the surface congestions that the retinol has pushed out, sweeps away death skin, clears the pores and penetrates into the deeper layers too to help the retinol. Sometimes it takes time to clean all of the blemishes that are under the skin waiting to come up, it depends of how bad the situation is. But after the first load and shock they will start to clear and the skin will stay clean and smooth after this first phase. It’s good to use Niacinamide in this phase alternating the retinol, helping the skin to heal from the breakouts. So don’t get scared, don’t give up, be patient and stay consistent. Luna snd Good Genes has helped me to achieve the most beautiful and healthy skin I ever had and I hope my experience can help you too. 

Unsure if this is worth money, smells not great and not sure if it has benefitted my skin 

When I use this, my skin glows and when I wake up, my skin shows more radiant!
