I recently tried the Lacus Temporis Serum, and I have to admit, I was a bit sceptical at first. I’ve always stuck to my regular skincare routine and hadn’t heard of the brand before. But after reading through the ingredients and the benefits, I was genuinely impressed. The serum has a subtle orange scent that’s not overpowering, and it absorbs into the skin quickly. After using it, my skin felt tighter and had a nice glow. I’m curious to try more from the brand!
Ray –
Honestly, this is my favourite serum ever. It’s natural, and it feels natural! It has an amazing scent, it absorbs perfectly, and feels amazing. Strongly recommended!
Sarah Gourlay –
I absolutely love this product. I felt an instant glow. My skin feels amazing, full of added goodness. I definitely recommend!

I’ve been using this product, and as a person of color, it’s worked magic on my skin. My complexion is brighter, healthier, and my skin feels so smooth. I use it both AM and PM, and it has truly transformed my skin. I couldn’t be more pleased with the results!

I couldn’t wait to try the Lacus Temporis serum after hearing so many positive reviews and it did not disappoint! As a skin care novice, I cannot believe the results, my skin is noticeably glowier, brighter and blemish free after using for 2 weeks in the am. The product smells amazing and absorbs quickly into my skin. Pipet style applicator ensures I don’t waste any product and packaging is sleek and feels luxurious. I cannot wait to try more of the Luna Selene products!

I’m a guy who doesn’t usually use many skincare products, but this Lacus Temporis Pro-Collagen Serum has really impressed me. It’s lightweight, absorbs fast, and doesn’t leave any greasy or shiny look on my face, which I really appreciate. I usually have very oily skin, and this product has shown great results without making my skin feel heavier or more oily.
After using it for a bit, my skin looks more hydrated and feels smoother. It’s simple to use, feels comfortable on the skin, and actually makes a visible difference.
For someone who normally doesn’t bother much with skincare, this has definitely been worth it.

Marina Godin –
I’m not a makeup fan and I love simplicity but this is the best thing that has been added to my skincare routine! I clean my face with Alpha Glow and go on with this afterwards, I prefer to smooth it over and then wait to let in sink in. You can tell it’s dry because your whole face feels tighter and refreshed!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE
Hannah –
This serum has firmly earned its place as a solid part of my weekly skincare routine. I use it at least 3 times a week in the morning before SPF, my skin literally drinks it up and feels to bouncy afterwards. Love it
Becky Nicholson –
Love this serum.
Been using it for a few weeks now on an evening under my moisturiser. A little goes a long way. My skin feels so plumped up and hydrated when I wake up in the morning. Highly reccomend.

I’ve been using the Lacus Temporis Pro-Collagen Serum for a while now and I love how light weight it is. It absorbs super quickly and leaves my skin feeling smooth and hydrated. It doesn’t feel heavy or greasy, which has put me off serums in the past. The scent is very subtle and natural, another quality I really appreciate. It has slotted into my skincare routine perfectly. 5 stars for a great product ⭐️💖
