How to Apply Luma Lift Eye Cream: Step-by-Step Guide

How do you apply Luma Lift eye cream? Cleanse and pat your skin dry, apply your usual eye cream or serum, then use a fingertip to gently tap a very small amount of Luma Lift around the eyes. Do not rub. As it dries you will feel a temporary tightening effect. Patch test first, and keep it out of your eyes.

Luma Lift Instant Eye Lift Cream by Luma by Laura is a lightweight, clear gel-textured cosmetic eye product made to leave the skin around the eyes looking smoother, more lifted and more rested. How you apply it makes a difference, so this guide walks through each step. Individual results vary.

What You Need

• A gentle cleanser
• Your usual eye cream, serum or moisturizer
• Luma Lift Instant Eye Lift Cream
• Clean hands

How to Apply Luma Lift, Step by Step

1. Cleanse. Wash your eyes and face with a gentle cleanser and pat dry.
2. Apply your usual eye product. Smooth your favorite eye cream, serum or moisturizer around the eyes. Luma Lift is designed to go on top of it, not to replace it.
3. Take a very small amount. A little goes a long way on the delicate skin around the eyes.
4. Tap, do not rub. Use a fingertip (the ring finger presses the lightest) and gently tap Luma Lift on top of the product you already applied. Stay on the bone around the eye and keep it out of the eyes themselves.
5. Let it dry thoroughly. As both products dry you will feel a tightening effect. This is the temporary, cosmetic lifted feel the formula is designed to create.

Always do a patch test first, and stop using the product if irritation occurs. For external use only. Avoid direct contact with the eyes and mouth, and keep out of reach of children.

Tips for Getting the Best Experience

• Start with less. Too much product can feel heavy and take longer to dry.
• Layer in order. Apply your regular eye product first and Luma Lift last. For more on common routine slip-ups, see eye care mistakes that hold back your eye cream.
• Morning and evening. The label says Luma Lift may be used morning and evening or as needed, as part of your regular skincare routine. The lifted feel is temporary, and how long you notice it depends on your skin, the environment and what you layer it with.
• Check the basics. Puffiness can also be linked to sleep, allergies and diet. Our guide to puffy eyes covers the everyday causes.

What Is in Luma Lift?

Luma Lift combines peptides, hyaluronic acid and botanical extracts:

• Sodium hyaluronate, a form of hyaluronic acid, helps the skin around the eyes hold moisture so it looks smoother and plumper.
• Peptides (acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl octapeptide-3 and palmitoyl tripeptide-1) are used in eye-area skincare to help skin look smoother and firmer.
• Botanical extracts (acai fruit, perilla, white oak bark and Irish moss) condition and soften the skin. White oak bark also gives a slightly tightening feel.
