‘Tis the season… for dry skin.
It’s freezing cold outside, my heat is working overtime, and between planes, cars, and the general hustle of the season, I can feel my skin getting drier by the day. Winter is notoriously tough on skin, and if yours leans dry like mine, you know that no amount of slathering on moisturizer feels like enough.
Lately, I’ve started looking into more innovative ways to pamper my face (beyond the usual cream-and-serum routine). That’s how I discovered LúmEnvy, a skincare brand bridging the gap between in-office treatments and at-home care. Born from the clinical expertise of PDO Max, a medical device company that has been supplying FDA-cleared PDO Threads and clinical skin boosters to thousands of aesthetic and medical professionals for over a decade, LúmEnvy brings industry-trusted tools straight into your daily routine. By that I mean their products are designed not just to hydrate and nourish, but to maintain and extend that “just-left-the-spa” glow. They help make professional-level care feel accessible and indulgent at home (which is exactly what our winter-weary skin needs).
One product that’s got me intrigued is LúmEnvy’s Glow Between Ritual kit. This is exactly what me and my overly dry skin have been looking for. More than a moisturizer, this kit is a full experience that targets dry skin and gives your regular routine a little glow-boosting upgrade.
True to its name, the Glow Between Ritual Kit is a three-step at-home system created for anyone who wants to keep their skin looking bright, smooth, and refreshed between med-spa appointments. It’s powered by PDRN (salmon DNA)—the same regenerative ingredient behind the celebrity-loved “salmon sperm facials”—which is known to support elasticity, calm inflammation, and improve overall skin tone and texture.
Developed by Giovanna McCarthy, a 30-year aesthetics expert and founder of PDO Max, the kit translates clinical-grade expertise into an easy, at-home experience. The first step is a concentrated Glass Skin Brightening Serum, formulated with PDRN, Centella Asiatica plant exosomes, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C to brighten, smooth, hydrate, and reduce visible discoloration. Next comes the Glowpin Stamper with Pure Brilliance Serum, a microneedling-inspired infuser designed to mimic the “boosting” step often done in-office. It helps the PDRN and Vitamin B12 penetrate deeper into the skin, extending the results of professional treatments so you can maintain that post-facial glow longer. The routine finishes with Glass Skin Hydration Masks, which quench the skin with replenishing hydration for a fresh, glass-like finish. Bonus: These individually packaged masks are also perfect for gift-giving or a little seasonal self-care treat.
Professional PDRN facials can cost hundreds of dollars per session, so the fact that this kit offers five PDRN-infused experiences for $249 makes it a surprisingly practical way to maintain hydrated, glow-y skin at home. (And thank god for that.)
If you’ve spent any time on BeautyTok lately, you’ve probably noticed PDRN popping up everywhere, and that’s exactly how I fell down the rabbit hole. I started experimenting with PDRN-infused moisturizers for myself and my husband, and the results were impressive (especially for him). His skin feels noticeably softer, more hydrated, and has a healthy glow that wasn’t there before. Knowing how well PDRN has already worked in our routine makes me especially excited to see what the Glow Between Ritual Kit can do for my own complexion.
The truth is, wintertime demands a little extra TLC for your skin. Between the cold, dry air outside and heated rooms inside, it’s easy for even the most diligent skincare routines to fall short. If you’re looking to maintain your post-facial radiance through the holiday season without multiple spa visits, the Glow Between Ritual kit might just be your new best friend.
P.S. It also makes a great gift for your skincare-obsessed bestie if you’re buying last minute, like I am. Run, don’t walk, to shop the full collection on Amazon and Lumenvyskincare.com!
