I recently had the privilege of photographing this beautiful human while she was in back in NZ who has not only been a client of Luminova but who has also been a very dear friend since we were 14! I have been using her skincare for years now and my skin has never looked so good. In fact it’s the best it has ever been. The first oil based product I’ve been able to use without breaking out all thanks to her special formulations.
