Wearing White with Lumina: How to Prevent Staining and Keep Fabrics FreshUpdated 18 hours ago
We absolutely love how radiant Lumina leaves your skin; and we know many of you want to enjoy that glow without worrying about staining your favourite white clothes. Here’s everything you need to know to wear your whites confidently with Lumina!
Why Can Lumina Transfer to Fabric? Lumina is formulated as a luxurious, antioxidant-rich SPF oil. Its natural ingredients (like Caprylic Triglycerides and Astaxanthin) are brilliant for skin hydration and protection, but they can sometimes transfer to fabrics if not fully absorbed, especially:
Around necklines, collars, and underarms
On lighter fabrics like cotton and linen
When dressing too soon after application
How to Minimise Transfer (Especially on White or Pale Clothing)...Follow these tips for a flawless finish and stain-free wardrobe:
Allow Absorption Time:
After applying Lumina, wait 10–15 minutes before getting dressed, especially in lighter colours. Let your skin drink it in!Use Less, Massage More:
Apply a small amount and massage thoroughly until fully absorbed. This reduces surface oil and potential fabric contact.Be Strategic With Application:
If you're wearing high-neck or white clothing, you can choose to skip applying Lumina to the neckline or décolletage area for the day.
Already Got a Stain?
Here’s how to lift it without damaging your garment:
Step 1: Pre-treat the area with a mix of bicarbonate of soda + washing-up liquid
Step 2: Gently rub into the fabric and let it sit for 15–30 minutes
Step 3: Wash as normal; ideally using an enzyme-based stain remover like Vanish Oxi
Step 4: Air dry (avoid tumble drying until the stain is fully gone)
Note: Always spot-test on a small area first, especially with delicate fabrics.
