Terms of Service

By using Lumen Ritual (“the site”), you agree to the terms below. If you don't agree with them, please don't use the site.

Not medical advice

Everything on this site is general skincare information for educational purposes. It is not medical advice, it is not a diagnosis, and it is not a substitute for care from a dermatologist or other qualified professional. Patch-test new products, follow the manufacturer's directions, and stop using anything that irritates your skin. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, using prescription treatment, or have a diagnosed skin condition, speak to a clinician before changing your routine.

Products, prices, and availability

Product suggestions reflect our own research at the time of writing. Formulations, packaging, prices, and stock change constantly, and the figures shown here — including any budget totals — are estimates only. Always check the retailer's own listing and the full ingredient list before buying.

Third-party links

The site links to third-party retailers and resources, some through affiliate programs described in our affiliate disclosure. We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content, pricing, shipping, returns, or privacy practices.

Your saved data

Routines, budgets, and reminders are stored in your browser, not on our servers. We can't recover them for you if they are cleared or lost. Export a PDF if you want a permanent copy.

Acceptable use

You may use the site for personal, non-commercial purposes. Please don't scrape, republish, or resell our content, attempt to disrupt the service, or misrepresent the site as your own.

Intellectual property

The written guides, routine logic, and design of the site belong to Lumen Ritual. Brand and product names belong to their respective owners and are used for identification only.

Limitation of liability

The site is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss, damage, or reaction arising from your use of the site or of products mentioned on it.

Changes and contact

These terms may be updated; the date at the top reflects the latest version. Questions can go to hello@skin-care-routine.life.

Intellectual property and assessments

All personalized skincare routines, ingredient evaluation notes, and calculator logic layouts generated by the Lumen Ritual interface are provided for educational and research informational tracking purposes only. The custom output structures and compiled data pathways remain the digital property of Lumen Ritual.

No medical advice disclaimer

The contents, quiz results, and product recommendations displayed on skin-care-routine.life do not constitute professional medical advice, dermatological diagnosis, or clinical treatment plans. The data processed by our calculator tool is based on general ingredient evidence and formulation properties. The Ritual Lab applies the same formulation logic to a shelf you already own. Users should consult a qualified physician or dermatologist regarding specific medical skin concerns, intense acne, or ingredient safety selections during pregnancy.

Limitation of liability

Lumen Ritual independently evaluates skincare items and provides referral routing to third-party retail storefronts. We hold no liability or responsibility for product manufacturing defects, skin reactions, formulation changes, or individual transactional experiences occurring on external merchant platforms.
