Gentle cleansing for sensitive skin
ageLOC LumiSpa Activating Face Cleanser – Sensitive Skin is a cream-gel facial cleanser developed for sensitive, delicate skin that is prone to feelings of discomfort.
The formula has been designed exclusively for use with the ageLOC LumiSpa iO device. It provides suitable glide and even contact between the silicone head and the skin, allowing the device to move smoothly and gently across the face without the need for strong pressure.
It is the gentlest variant among the LumiSpa cleansers. Its mild cleansing system produces only a small amount of foam and contains ingredients such as oat extract and Chinese pine bark extract, which help care for delicate skin and support its comfort.
The cleanser helps remove makeup, excess sebum, daily impurities and cosmetic residue. After cleansing, the skin may look fresher, smoother and more cared for. The tube contains 100 ml.
How does the facial cleanser work?
Regular cleansing with ageLOC LumiSpa iO helps to:
- thoroughly remove daily impurities;
- remove excess sebum and cosmetic residue;
- wash away light makeup;
- support a fresh and radiant-looking complexion;
- leave the skin feeling softer and smoother;
- maintain the comfort of sensitive skin;
- prepare the skin for the next steps in the skincare routine;
- support a regular and gentle cleansing routine.
The formula contains mild cleansing agents, moisturising and conditioning ingredients, as well as bisabolol, allantoin and selected botanical extracts.
The product is a cosmetic cleanser. It is not a medicine and is not intended to treat skin diseases, allergies, rosacea or inflammatory skin conditions.
Who may the product be suitable for?
The cleanser may be suitable for people whose skin:
- is sensitive or delicate;
- easily reacts with a feeling of discomfort;
- feels tight after conventional cleansing;
- needs gentle yet thorough cleansing;
- is prone to temporary redness;
- is susceptible to dryness;
- does not tolerate highly foaming products well;
- needs a formula that provides suitable glide when using LumiSpa iO;
- is cleansed regularly in the morning and evening.
Sensitive skin may also be dry, normal, combination or temporarily oilier. The Sensitive Skin variant should be selected primarily according to skin reactivity and the need for gentle cleansing, rather than solely according to sebum production.

How should ageLOC LumiSpa Activating Face Cleanser be used?
The product is intended for use with ageLOC LumiSpa iO.
Step-by-step directions
- Wet the face with lukewarm water.
- Apply an appropriate amount of cleanser to damp skin.
- Wet the silicone head of the device.
- Switch on LumiSpa iO.
- Move the head slowly across the face using broad, fluid motions.
- Do not scrub the skin or apply strong pressure.
- Move to the next area after each signal.
- At the end of the two-minute programme, rinse the face thoroughly with water.
- Gently pat the skin dry with a towel without rubbing.
- Continue with the next steps in the routine, such as a suitable serum or moisturiser.
As part of a regular routine, LumiSpa iO may be used for 2 minutes, twice daily, provided the skin tolerates this frequency well.
How should the face be divided during cleansing?
The two-minute programme may be divided into four areas:
- forehead;
- left cheek;
- right cheek;
- nose, area around the mouth and chin.
The device signals approximately every 30 seconds when it is time to move to the next area.
Do not use the device on the eyelids or directly around the eyes. Avoid the lips as well.
Which silicone head should be used?
For sensitive skin, the Gentle Silicone Head may be suitable.
It provides gentler contact with the skin, which may be particularly important in cases of:
- increased sensitivity;
- temporary redness;
- feelings of tightness;
- a tendency towards irritation;
- reduced skin comfort;
- simultaneous use of intensive skincare products.
The combination of the Sensitive Skin cleanser with the Gentle Silicone Head is adapted to the needs of sensitive skin.
Do not press the device more firmly to intensify cleansing. Stronger pressure does not improve effectiveness and may reduce skin comfort.
How often should the product be used?
The product has been developed for regular morning and evening use as part of the two-minute LumiSpa iO routine.
For particularly reactive skin, it may be sensible to begin with one use per day or several uses per week, then gradually increase the frequency according to the skin’s response.
Reduce the frequency of use if any of the following occur:
- noticeable dryness;
- burning or stinging;
- persistent redness;
- flaking;
- tightness;
- increased reactivity;
- discomfort that continues after rinsing.
Can the product be used without LumiSpa iO?
The formula has been developed as part of the LumiSpa iO system. It provides the suitable glide and contact needed between the silicone head and the skin.
It is therefore best used with the compatible device and a properly selected silicone head.
When using LumiSpa iO, do not replace the activating cleanser with a randomly selected gel, oil, soap or foam. A different texture may not provide the required glide and may affect how the device moves across the skin.
Does the product remove makeup?
The product helps remove:
- foundation;
- light makeup;
- daily impurities;
- excess sebum;
- residue from creams and other skincare products.
For heavy or waterproof makeup, it is best to use a separate makeup remover first and then cleanse the skin with LumiSpa iO.
Take particular care around the eyes. The product is not intended to remove mascara or eye makeup directly from the eyelids.
Does the product foam heavily?
The Sensitive Skin variant has been formulated with a mild cleansing system and produces only a small amount of foam.
Low foaming is a characteristic of the formula and does not mean the product is not cleansing the skin.
More important than the amount of foam are:
- suitable glide;
- even distribution of the product;
- gentle movement of the device;
- completion of the full two-minute programme;
- thorough rinsing of the skin.
Can the product dry out the skin?
The formula has been developed to cleanse sensitive skin as gently as possible. It contains ingredients such as glycerin and conditioning agents.
However, the skin’s response may depend on:
- frequency of use;
- water temperature;
- pressure applied with the device;
- the current condition of the skin barrier;
- other cosmetic products in the routine;
- individual skin sensitivity;
- weather conditions and humidity.
Use lukewarm rather than hot water. After cleansing, apply a gentle moisturiser suited to the skin’s needs.
Use with acids and retinoids
If the routine also includes:
- retinol or retinoids;
- AHA or BHA acids;
- exfoliators;
- benzoyl peroxide;
- intensive products for blemishes;
- other exfoliating products;
- strong dermatological treatments,
observe the skin carefully and avoid introducing several intensive products at the same time.
An overly complex or intensive routine may cause:
- dryness;
- irritation;
- burning;
- flaking;
- reduced skin-barrier comfort;
- increased reactivity.
During dermatological treatment, discuss how to combine cosmetic products with a dermatologist or pharmacist.
Is sun protection needed after use?
Daily sun protection is an important part of caring for every skin type, including sensitive skin.
In the morning, after cleansing, it is advisable to apply:
- a gentle moisturiser;
- sun protection suited to the skin’s needs and tolerance.
This is especially important when the routine contains retinoids, acids or other exfoliating ingredients.
Is the product suitable for skin with rosacea?
The product has been developed for sensitive skin, but it is not intended to treat rosacea or other chronic skin conditions.
Skin with diagnosed rosacea may respond very individually to:
- cleansing products;
- contact with a device;
- temperature changes;
- friction;
- certain active ingredients.
Before introducing a new device or cleanser, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist, particularly during a flare-up.
Does the product soothe irritation?
The formula contains ingredients commonly used in cosmetics for delicate skin, including bisabolol, allantoin, oat extract and Chinese pine bark extract.
The product may support the comfort and care of sensitive skin, but it is not intended to treat irritation, allergic reactions or inflammatory conditions.
Do not use it on:
- open wounds;
- freshly damaged skin;
- areas with intense burning;
- an active allergic reaction;
- severely red and painful skin.
How should the device and silicone head be cared for?
After each use:
- remove or thoroughly rinse the silicone head;
- remove all cleanser residue;
- rinse the device according to the instructions;
- dry the device and the head;
- allow them to dry completely;
- store them in a clean, dry place.
The silicone head should be replaced approximately every 3 months to maintain good hygiene and optimal device performance.
Important information and precautions
The product is for external use only.
It is important to:
- avoid direct contact with the eyes;
- not apply the product to the eyelids;
- rinse the eyes thoroughly with water in case of accidental contact;
- avoid open wounds;
- not use the product on severely irritated or damaged skin;
- discontinue use if irritation persists;
- keep the product out of reach of young children;
