Our founder, Amy-Jane has always had a passion for nature and would create natural and organic skincare and wellness "Pamper Hampers" for her family & friends as gifts.
During a hike with a friend, the concept of creating a natural self-care and holistic wellness range started to emerge. From then, the Luminiquea brand was brought to life, combining natural ingredients and a passion for nature being at the heart of everything we do.
All our skincare products are hand-blended, right here on the South Coast in the UK.

Firstly, shake to wake and activate the ingredients!
Bubble Bath
To create a luxurious bubble bath experience, pour a generous amount of Decadent under warm, running water as you fill the tub.
For a more indulgent bubble bath experience, agitate the water with your hands or a bath sponge to create even more bubbles.
Adjust the amount of product used based on personal preference and the desired level of lather.
Shower Wash
Apply Decadent in the shower to a damp loofah or washcloth or directly onto your palms. Gently massage it onto your wet skin, making it a rich lather.
Ensure skin is clean and dry, spoon a desired amount of Gaia clay into the lid or a small bowl. Mix the clay and water together.
Daily Cleanser
As a daily cleanser, we recommend using a ratio of 1 part clay to 2 parts water. Adjust the amount of water to achieve your preferred consistency.
Weekly Treatment
For a weekly more intense treatment, or if you prefer a thicker mask, use less water. Apply the clay mask evenly to your face, avoiding the delicate eye area. Use a facial brush or clean fingertips to gently spread the mask, ensuring complete coverage. Leave the mask on for 10-15 minutes, allowing the clay to work its magic.
Rinse off the mask with warm water. We suggest using a soft bamboo face cloth to gently remove the clay, ensuring a thorough cleanse. Continue rinsing until all traces of the mask are removed. After rinsing, pat your skin dry with a clean towel. Avoid rubbing or pulling at the skin to prevent irritation. Follow up with your favourite moisturiser.
You can use the clay daily as a gentle cleanser or 1-2 times a week for a more intense mask treatement.
