Beauty from the Earth
Founded by former farmer and rancher, David Vargas four years ago, Lumavera expands its product line into cosmetics. The skincare brand is primarily known for creating products using “super foods” such as Veggies (tomatoes, carrots, spinach, kale, brussels sprouts and onion) and fruit (citrus extracts, argan oil, green tea and aloe leaf extracts, licorice root and sunflower seed oil), just to name a few. Vargas’ vision of “cultivating beauty from the ground up,” have been realized through its natural and environmentally friendly product line.
“I wanted to use aloe vera because 99 percent of skin-care companies for the first ingredient [use] water. The molecular structure of water is too large and it doesn’t penetrate the skin. Skin is waterproof, so water doesn’t absorb into the skin. You can ingest water, but externally it does nothing,” Vargas told WWD.
Some of their current products on their skincare line are:
Oxygenating Masque
