Scientific Rigour & Transparency
We commissioned an independent, double blind, placebo controlled clinical trial for our Morning & Night supplement in order to establish its efficacy in a controlled environment.
The results, which were peer reviewed and published in the The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology,demonstrated that participants taking Morning & Night reported a significant positive impact on their health and beauty.

Proven Results
The Lumity Morning & Night supplement has undergone rigorous independent clinical trials to ensure maximum efficacy. Lumity commissioned an independent, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical study conducted on 50 women aged 35-65 over 12 weeks. Results were recorded at 0, 4, 8 and 12 weeks. By week 4, there was 'statistically significant preference for the supplement over the placebo'.

100 women were invited to take part in an 8-week consumer study to test the benefits of Lumity's Skin Nutrients Facial Oil and 4-in-1 Cleanse. Participants were asked to apply Lumity Facial Oil at least once a day and respond to a survey at week 4 and week 8 to measure the efficacy of the product on key markers of skin condition. These include: hydration, radiance, firmness, elasticity, overall appearance and appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

The 9 Causes of Ageing
Biologists have identified 9 hallmarks that represent common denominators of ageing in humans. The Lumity Morning & Night supplement was developed to provide a balance of vitamins, minerals, omega-3 fatty acids, amino acids & adaptogens that work synergistically to support health ageing from within, helping to tackle these 9 interrelated causes of ageing. Scroll on to discover more.
DNA Damage
As the blueprint for our cells, DNA’s integrity is crucial to maintain proper cellular function. Damage to our DNA is usually repaired on an ongoing basis within our cells -- but if left unaddressed, such damage can impair the way information is relayed and interpreted, causing dysfunction. Important cell processes can be blocked, damaged portions can mutate and be passed on as the cell continues to divide, and cell death can be accelerated.
Inflammation
Chronic inflammation, or the persistent activation of inflammatory molecules, often goes unnoticed in our day-to-day lives -- but this persistent low-grade attack often precedes and characterizes many degenerative diseases. System breakdown and accelerated aging result.
Cellular Energy Decline
Mitochondria are the energy powerhouses within our cells -- but as we age, they become fewer in number and less effective at producing the energy we need. As a result, we suffer from chronic energy loss and fatigue as fuel produced by our remaining mitochondria
is rationed only for the most essential bodily processes. In this underpowered state, the body is susceptible to disease and degeneration.
Hormonal Decline
When we are young, human growth hormone (HGH) is released while we sleep to help repair, renew, and regenerate the body’s tissues. As we age, HGH levels drop, leading to a loss of youthfulness and vitality and resulting in extra body fat, reduced muscle tissue, slow healing, reduced skin elasticity, and reduced immune function.
Oxidative Damage
Continuous intake and use of oxygen results in the formation of dangerous byproducts such as free radicals, which are highly reactive molecules that can set off dangerous and damaging reactions within the body. Normally, free radicals are stabilized with antioxidants --but as we age, antioxidant stores decline, rendering DNA vulnerable to free radical damage and thus to degenerative disease.
Cellular Debris
Cellular function always produces some waste product, which is removed from the cells via a detoxification process. However, as we age and energy production declines, detoxification cannot be completed. As a result, waste products build up inside our cells, hindering function and eventually causing cell death. This is especially problematic in the brain, where cells divide more slowly. Accumulation of cellular debris in our brain cells leads to a loss of alertness and a decline in mental energy and function.
Glycation
Glycation occurs when proteins or lipids bond haphazardly with sugar to form non-functioning structures called advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Some of these are very reactive and have been linked to cancer, cardiovascular disease, and Alzheimer’s. AGEs also play a role in collagen breakdown and the depletion of the skin’s natural moisturizer hyaluronic acid. Skin becomes wrinkled, saggy, and dry as a result.
Insulin Resistance
Poor diet can lead to the overproduction of insulin, a hormone secreted by the pancreas that lowers blood glucose levels. As a result, cells can become resistant to insulin and lose their ability to respond to its presence, leading to glucose building up in the blood. This accumulation can result in glycation and formation of AGEs, obesity, and disease.
Telomere Shortening
As we age, our telomeres, the protective caps at the ends of our chromosomes, shorten with each cell division. When telomeres become too short, the cell can
no longer divide, leading to cell death.

Why Take Supplements?
Why Take Supplements?
To help combat unnecessary cellular damage, it’s essential to support your body with the right nutrition, at the right time. A well balanced diet can deliver a lot of what our body needs, but we know busy lifestyles mean this isn’t always achievable.
Plus, with the global decline in soil quality, the fruit and vegetables we eat are not as nutrient dense as they once were.
Our targeted blends of high quality vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants, amino acids, omega-3 fatty acids and anti-inflammatories work in harmony with the body’s own natural processes and rhythm, to repair and restore at a cellular level, supporting you from within so that you can age beautifully and look and feel your absolute best.
See & Feel The Benefits
We believe if you feel good, you look good. Our clinically proven nutritional supplements help combat the negative effects of ageing, supporting your health, strength and wellbeing from the inside out with a complex blend of Amino Acids, Vitamins, Minerals and Adaptogens.
