Good to know
A refill pod is the Lucis Protecting Day Serum formula in a minimal inner container, made to go back into the bottle you already own. Screw the refill pod into the cap first — not straight into the bottle — then lower the cap and pod into the bottle and screw it closed. It is ready to use.
Yes. The refill pod has no outer bottle of its own, so it needs the bottle from Lucis Protecting Day Serum. Buy the full size once, then refill it from then on.
Identical. It is the full Lucis Protecting Day Serum formula — the same 67 ingredients, 92% of natural origin. Only the packaging changes.
You are only paying for the formula, not for a new outer bottle, cap and outer packaging. That is the point of a refillable system: the expensive, durable part is bought once and kept.
Every refill reuses the bottle you already have, so the durable outer component is manufactured once instead of with every repurchase. Less packaging produced, less shipped and less discarded — longevity for your skin and for the planet.
Remove the empty pod, rinse the bottle with warm water and let it dry completely before inserting the new refill. A dry bottle keeps the seal clean and the formula stable.
Apply in the morning after your toning mist. Dispense 2–3 pumps, warm the serum slightly and press gently into face, neck and décolleté, then follow with day cream.
Instrumental testing showed +42.77% hydration after 30 minutes and +6.66% elasticity after 28 days.
100% said skin feels more hydrated and radiant, 95% agreed their complexion appears brighter and more even, and 100% reported overall satisfaction and excellent tolerance.
Yes. The formula is dermatologically tested and suits all skin types, including sensitive. It is the same tested formula as the full size.
The refill contains 30 mL of formula — the same volume as the full size, so it lasts exactly as long.
Yes, that is what it is designed for. The bottle is built to be kept and reused; replace it only if it is damaged.
Yes. The formula is vegan and never tested on animals, and it is 92% of natural origin.
Yes. Its silky, lightweight texture absorbs quickly, so sunscreen and makeup sit over it cleanly. A day serum supports your sunscreen, it does not replace it.
One 30 mL refill typically lasts around two months with daily morning use.

Prodotto di buona qualità con una profumazione delicata. Ottima l'idea di poter acquistare solo il refill per evitare sprechi di plastica. Confezione piacevole e curata nei dettagli
Ottima texture e profumazione delicata, mai invadente. Lascia sulla pelle una piacevole e duratura sensazione di idratazione. Dopo sole due settimane di utilizzo noto già un miglioramento visibile: la pelle appare più luminosa, morbida e uniforme.
It’s a silky, fast-absorbing serum that instantly boosts hydration. After applying it, my skin feels soft and supple—completely different from how tight and dry it usually feels after washing with a regular face soap. When I use it after the Photogena Facial Treatment Cleanser, my skin stays so hydrated that I sometimes forget I haven’t even moisturized yet! It’s lightweight, non-irritating, and smells amazing. I absolutely love it.
The texture is truly incredible—lightweight, silky, and instantly absorbed into the skin without leaving any residue. It feels almost like a second skin, delivering hydration and radiance from the very first application. I also really appreciate the airless refill packaging, which not only preserves the formula perfectly but also reflects a more conscious, luxury approach to skincare.
