About Us

At Luminus, we believe that true luxury is found in simplicity—and in nature. Every shampoo bar, soap, and body product we create is crafted by hand, using ingredients chosen for their purity, effectiveness, and gentle beauty.

Made in small batches right here in Tasmania, our inspiration flows from a landscape where raw coastlines meet cool forests. This magnificent environment informs everything we do, grounding our formulations in clean, nourishing simplicity and connecting us to the natural world.

Our Ingredients & Formulations

We are committed to quality, which is why we work exclusively with premium plant oils and butters that deliver real results. From organic Camellia Seed, Baobab, Marula, Jojoba, and Meadowfoam to our base butters—Shea, Cocoa, Kokum, and Mango—each ingredient is selected for its deep nourishing properties, ability to soften, and natural protective qualities. Complemented by our gorgeous fruit oils such as Strawberry, Raspberry, Blueberry, and Kiwi Seed, our formulations are a celebration of nature’s delicious offerings for your skin.

Our ethos is simple: clean, kind, considered. We avoid harsh chemicals, working instead with botanicals that support your skin and are gentle on our planet.

Our Process: Thoughtful, Slowmade, and Purposeful

At Luminus, every product begins with a purpose shaped by careful thought. Whether it’s a new shampoo bar or a nourishing body soap, our decision to create each product stems from:

  • Purpose: We design each product with a specific intent—to enrich your skincare ritual, to celebrate natural beauty, and to empower you to age gracefully.

  • Passion for Quality: Every step of our process is deliberate. From sourcing ingredients to designing our packaging.

  • Craftsmanship: We handle everything in-house—from formulating and making to wrapping our products. This hands-on approach ensures consistency, authenticity, and that each item embodies our belief in slow, intentional creation.

As a slowmade business, we’re always evolving. You might notice subtle changes in our packaging or formulations over time. Those adjustments are a reflection of our continuous commitment to refine, improve, and reduce our environmental impact without compromising our passion for quality.

Luminus is more than what we make—it’s how we make it, and why.
To nourish. To connect. To honour the beauty of ageing gracefully, the power of nature, and the art of taking the time to do things exceptionally well.
