The Formula: 
Lumière Florale is a biweekly resurfacing nectar that pairs the brightening rhythm of fruit acids with the steady nourishment of whole flowers and roots — gently refining texture, restoring tone, and unveiling the skin’s natural luminosity.
 
At the heart of this treatment is a gentle glycolic derived from natural compounds found in sugarcane and unripe grapes — chosen not for force, but for its precision. With the smallest molecular structure of any AHA (alpha hydroxy acid), it moves just beneath the skin’s surface, where it quietly encourages renewal: softening fine lines, refining texture, softening discoloration, and supporting the skin’s own production of collagen and glycosaminoglycans — the plumping, moisture-holding compounds that give skin its bounce and glow.
 
When used in small, intelligent amounts, as in this microdosed formulation, sugarcane glycolic becomes a signal rather than a disruption. It promotes clarity and cellular turnover without compromising the skin’s moisture barrier or microbiome. It moves in harmony with the skin’s own rhythms — ideal for those in cycles of sensitivity, healing, or gentle maintenance.
 
But what sets Lumière Florale apart is not only its restraint, but its roots. This is a true garden glycolic — buffered and enriched by a seasonal infusion of rose fruit ferment, calendula blossom, heirloom cacao, stone-ground marshmallow, and passionflower. Each botanical was selected to cushion the skin through renewal: providing anti-inflammatory compounds, mineral support, and hydrating plant polysaccharides that soothe and nourish.
 
Marshmallow and passionflower deliver soft moisture and a sense of calm to reactive skin. Fermented rosehips and hibiscus echo glycolic’s effect with naturally occurring fruit acids, adding brightness and botanical vitality. Licorice root gently fades discoloration, while elderflower and nettle offer iron, silica, and flavonoids that protect and restore.
 
The result is a brightening and textural renewal treatment that feels more like a botanical veil than an exfoliant — a tender, rhythmic ritual that renews without force, and leaves the skin more luminous with every use.
 
Philosophy of Flowers:
Passionflower Tincture, Stone Ground Marshmallow Root, Heirloom Cacao Fruit, Rose Fruit Ferment, Heritage Calendula Blossom
 
The Ritual:
This refining nectar is best used once or twice weekly in the evening. Apply 1–2 pumps to clean skin. A light tingling is a natural signal of renewal in progress.  Wait 1 minute, and follow with hydrating essence and serum. For reactive skin, apply as a 2 minute mask, then rinse.
 
Active Botanicals:
 
Passionflower (Passiflora incarnata): Rich in calming flavonoids and skin-soothing alkaloids, passionflower offers a serene counterpoint to exfoliation. It helps settle reactive skin and ease visible tension, making it ideal for sensitivity-prone complexions.
 
Marshmallow Root (Althaea officinalis): Stone-ground to preserve its full mucilage content, marshmallow is a deeply hydrating botanical that binds water to the skin and forms a protective, breathable barrier. Its gel-like matrix helps prevent moisture loss while reducing inflammation and supporting calm, plump skin.
 
Coastal Rose Fruit Ferment (Rosa spp.): Naturally abundant in alpha hydroxy compounds, fermented rosehips promote gentle exfoliation, increase cell turnover, and deliver a burst of vitamin-rich brightness to the skin. Fermentation enhances bioavailability, making these actives easier for the skin to absorb.
 
Heirloom Cacao Fruit (Theobroma cacao): A rich source of magnesium, potassium, and antioxidant polyphenols, cacao fruit supports skin tone and firmness while helping buffer the effects of oxidative stress. Its trace mineral content helps nourish connective tissue from the surface up.
 
Calendula Blossom (Calendula officinalis): Rich in carotenoids and plant sterols, calendula soothes and repairs skin compromised by inflammation or environmental exposure. Its gentle lymphatic action supports detoxification, while flavonoids help reduce redness and calm irritation.
 
Darjeeling Tea (Camellia sinensis): A rare and elegant antioxidant infusion. Its polyphenols and theaflavins help neutralize free radicals, reduce oxidative stress, and calm inflammation, making it especially supportive for skin in recovery or transition.
 
Licorice Root (Glycyrrhiza glabra): A deeply supportive brightening agent, licorice root helps fade spots and balance uneven tone. It also reduces inflammation, making it ideal for restoring clarity to skin prone to irritation, congestion, or discoloration.
 
Hibiscus Flower (Hibiscus sabdariffa): Often called the “botox plant” for its natural firming qualities, hibiscus offers gentle exfoliating acids alongside antioxidant anthocyanins that protect the skin and enhance elasticity.
 
Elderflower & Nettle (Sambucus nigra & Urtica dioica): These mineral-dense botanicals bring silica, iron, and antioxidant flavonoids into the blend, reinforcing skin structure and supporting a calm, clarified, and strengthened complexion.
