Lumin vs Tiege Hanley (Honest Review)

this is lumen and this is t shanley and in this video i'm going to compare lumen with t shanley so i've checked both products respectfully for more than 60 days on this channel and else i feel like it's time for me to compare both of these products and give you my honest thoughts and opinion the lumen video received more than 150k views and i've recently uploaded the t shanley video around a week ago and thus in this video you can expect me to go over the products the benefits and drawback and then finally i'll give you my honest opinion but hey if you're someone that is new to this channel and would love to see more videos like this please consider to the subscribe button and help your brother out anyways with that said let's jump into the video all right so first of all let me start off with the lumen set when you open the box it says lumen man is nothing else but what he makes of himself jean-paul sartre the packaging is extremely aesthetic in my opinion and looks like the perfect gift and at the same time it definitely looks very premium the first product that you're meant to use is the charcoal cleanser and the charcoal cleanser is a product that cleanses your skin and the purpose of this particular product is to get rid of all of the dirt on your skin the next product is the exfoliating rub this is a product that gets rid of an extra layer of your skin to regenerate it and protect your skin the exfoliating rub is a product that gives your skin a new fighting chance so after your skin feels too oily or it feels like you have some sort of dead skin layer on it by using this particular product you can get rid of it and thus regenerate your skin and then you've got the moisturizing balm the moisturizing balm is a product that you use all for cleansing and exfoliating your skin because this way you moisturize your skin and simply prevent your skin from being dry and when it comes to this particular product hands down this is my most favorite product out of all of the lumen products and then you've got the dark circle defense and this is a product that you apply under your eyes to get rid of puffy eye bags and dark circles they also offer the anti-wrinkle serum and recovery oil so when it comes to the anti-wrinkle serum this is for individuals that want to prevent wrinkles and it's especially useful for older individuals and the recovery oil is a product that's for individuals that very oily skin and want to redistribute this lumen also provides you this very premium cloth to make sure you can take care of your skin since it is specialized for your skin and when it comes to the lumia products lumen also offers a free trial and when it comes to the free trial lumia is going to provide some of the best products it will be a smaller top but it will be more than enough to last at least a month it says that it will last a month but in my experience it can last longer than that if you don't use too much of the product and when it comes to the free trial i highly recommend to individuals to check the products out and see whether you like it for yourself because everyone's skin is a bit different and obviously i am going to give you my thoughts and opinion about both of these brands but it's always advised to check it out for yourself and when it comes to the free trial all you have to do is to pay for shipping which is around five dollars and you end up getting lumi's best products so i will have the exclusive free trial linked down below if you're someone that wants to check it out and now let me go over the teach products so when you open the t-shiny system it says helping men look and feel amazing uncomplicated skin care for men inside of it you can find yourself the face wash and when it comes to the teach face wash it is similar to the charcoal cleanser at least it has the same purpose but in my opinion when it comes to the teach face wash i did feel that it was leaving some sort of cooling effect something that the lumen product didn't do and at the same time if you're someone that has very sensitive skin i feel like that this product might be a bit better because it was very subtle compared to the lumen product and that doesn't necessarily mean that the lumen product is very harsh it's just that this product was more subtle the next product that you receive is the face scrub and this is a product that you use just like the exfoliating rub to get rid of the dead skin layer and just like the teach face wash this particular product also left a cooling sensation for me but i felt like that the lumen exfoliating rope did a better job at exfoliating your skin and really getting rid of the dead skin layer the next two products you receive is the am moisturizer and pm moisturizer and when it comes to these two products when it comes to the am moisturizer it has an spf of 20 in it while the pm moisturizer doesn't have that and that is something that the lumen set doesn't offer so tiege offers two different moisturizers one for in the morning and one for in the evening and the one in the morning has an spf of 20 in it and this allows you to protect your skin from the sun however lumen does offer an spf moisturizer with an spf of 30 in it but you can buy it separately lumin's spf moisturizer was only available in the us but now it's available internationally so if you're someone that's interested in the lumen spf 30 moisturizer and would love to see a video about that particular product definitely consider it to the subscribe button with notifications on so this way you won't miss the video when i upload it the next product that t shanley offers which comes with the level 2 system is the am and pm eye cream and this is an eye cream that they recommend you to apply under your eyes to get rid of puffy and dark eye circles i do like the smell of the luminous dark circle defense but when it comes to this particular product i really feel that it goes into my eyes and really hydrates them the t-shiny level 3 system offers the super serum and this is a product that they recommend for men they are a little bit older and want to really take care of their skin and prevent aging and when it comes to the super serum initially when i received this product i really didn't like the smell of it but over time it actually wasn't too bad and after applying this particular product it does leave my face very hydrated in a very different way compared to the am pm moisturizers because i think the super serum contains some sort of vitamins that really stimulates my skin compared to the regular moisturizers and if i have to compare the super serum to aluminum product i'll probably compare it to the anti-wrinkle serum but when it comes to this particular product it does leave a more cooling effect in my opinion compared to the t shanley product and it also smells better in my opinion tie shanley also provided me a tea shanley towel and if you're someone that ends up deciding to go for the teach products if you use the link in the description you can get the teach products but also a free gift so those are the main products of both lumen and tiege hanley but besides those products lumen also offers quite a lot of other products just like the intensive repair face mask and this isn't particularly a product that everyone needs but it's definitely an advanced product so if you're someone that suddenly gets bad skin out of nowhere and you have no reason as to why because we've all been there i feel like that this product really helps you out with it because i've used this product in those times and i definitely felt that this face must really help with it another lumen product that i highly recommend is the anti-fatigue eye patch and when it comes to the anti-fatigue eye patch this particular product is very easy to use all you have to do is to apply it under your eyes and leave it there for a couple of minutes and after that you just get rid of it and you can instantly see that your eyes are more rejuvenated hey don't look tired anymore and now i would quickly like to go over the brand identity about t shanley the t story the teach handy story is simple and uncomplicated just like our products found by four regular guys we created a product system a brand that makes skincare meaningful accessible affordable and clinically relevant for regular guys the brainchild of kelly thorton t shanley named after one of kelly's prominent ancestors was inspired by a department store skinca asos straw as kelly produced he was stuck by three simple truths one guys really don't know much about skin care two men's skin care products are complicated and confusing three men are those products expensive and i have to agree with that because skin care products can be quite expensive and thus i'd always try to negotiate with those brands to make sure i can give you guys the best deals anyways it follows up with drawing on his marketing and brand management experience kelly got to work enlisting his college roommate and software industry guru rob hoxy to help mastermind a skincare solution for men that hits all three points it has to be sensible simple and affordable kelly and rob wanted to help regular guys look and feel amazing by creating a skincare system that was easy to understand and to use but what good is an idea without an audience enter aaron mourinho men's lifestyle expert grooming guru youtube sensation and serial entrepreneur aaron's male centric passion for health and lifestyle personal brand a cult-like following made him teach henley's ideal partner number three now that the team had a powerful way to reach men they were only missing the final ingredient the products themselves so apparently they already had everything sorted they just needed the products daunting undertaking nah they did what any regular guy would do took the idea to the golf course where they teared up with the man who would become tisha and his master skin care formulator known only as the chemist who perverse to remain incognito and with more than 35 years of experience formulating products for some of the top skin care brands he agreed to join the team as fourth partner and is the creator of what the team calls their ferrari formulas we've reinvented men's skincare and changed the way men think about skin for regular guys inspired by real life experience passion insight and the desire to do good for our fellow men who have reinvented men's skin care and changed the way regular guys think about their skin t shanley's sore mission is to help guys look and feel amazing by providing a simplified skincare system we are truly uncomplicated skin care for men aaron rob kelly and the chemist quite an interesting story and now let me look at the lumen story and after that i'll go over the benefits and drawbacks of these products and finally my opinion lumin is a story that began with a guy traveling around the world and observing that while skin health as a concept is perceived differently in every country skin management for men was universally lacking and underserved a lot of men didn't know what to do with their skin or simply didn't bother to talk about it that had to evolve with a whole crop of male oriented skincare brands surfacing in recent years many of which no different than generic drugstore brand basics the california-based founders of lumen went through exceptional lengths to differentiate and elevate they flew straight to south korea the global leader in skincare innovation to develop formulas that would uniquely benefit the thicker and more stubborn skin constructs of men with only the ingredients they needed and none of the excess a regimen became simple even while personalized to address specific needs and thus quality skin management could be had in under 90 seconds a day and the thing that i personally like about lumen is the marketing because they've got quite an aggressive marketing and thus you can pretty much see their products everywhere it doesn't matter what social media medium you're on and now i would quickly like to go over the benefits and drawbacks of the lumin and t shanley products so i'm gonna compare each product one by one with their competitor and talk about why one particular product might be better for a specific skin requirement well on the other side the other product might be better for something else first of all let me talk about the charcoal cleanser and the face wash so the charcoal cleanse is a product that really gets rid of the dirt on your skin and after using this product i always felt my skin to be very very clean and when it comes to the face wash it also cleans your face but it doesn't do it in the same intensity like the charcoal cleanse in my opinion but at the same time this particular product does leave a cooling effect and that feeling of your skin feeling very refreshed and nice is a good thing so if you're someone that has a very sensitive skin i would recommend the teach any product well if you're someone that has just regular skin and doesn't have sensitive skin i would go for lumen next up is the exfoliating rope and the scrub so the scrub is a product that also leaves the cooling effect just like the face wash but similarly it isn't as intense as the exfoliating rub because when it comes to the exfoliating rub in my opinion after using this product you really feel that it gets rid of the dead skin layer more than a teach any scrub does but that doesn't necessarily mean that this is a bad product because if you're someone that has very sensitive skin once again this will be a better choice for you why if you're someone that has regular skin or more stubborn skin i would recommend the exfoliating rub moving on to the am and pm moisturizer first as the moisturizing bomb so the am moisturizer has an spf 20 in it while the pm moisturizing doesn't have that and when it comes to the moisturizing bulb it doesn't have any sort of spf in it volume does offer an spf product which you can buy separately i do like that tj hanley offers spf in the regular products because this way you can really protect your skin but the downside that i found of the teach product is that it just simply isn't enough compared to the lumen moisturizing balm because i only have to use a little bit of this product and my skin is very moisturized but when it comes to this product i do have to use a little bit more than they instruct you to do and thus it doesn't last for the 30 days but at the end of the day both of these products work but for some reason this is a personal choice i just feel like that the moisturizing balm leaves my skin in a much nicer way than the t-shiny moisturizer when it comes to the lumen dark circle defense and the tiege hanley am and pm eye cream i like the small the lumen product more because it gives you a very sweet scent compared to the t-shiny product however when it comes to both of these products and as to how they perform i would say that this particular product does perform a tiny bit better than the dark circle defense because when it comes to the tgly product if i applied it under my eyes i definitely feel that my skin under my eyes is really sucking the product and really making sure that it goes into the skin under my eyes but when it comes to the dark circle defense it does feel very nice after actually applying the product but it doesn't do the same as the t-shiny product and when it comes to the lumen anti-wrinkle serum and the super serum this is a very hard choice for me because both of these products are recommended for individuals there are above 30. they really keep your skin looking healthy and young and since i'm not really getting wrinkles or seeing any other sort of aging signs i find it very difficult to tell you guys which one is better because being transparent is very important but if i have to give you some sort of details i hope these details will help you out because when it comes to the lumen entry wrinkle serum this product does leave your skin a bit more cooled compared to the super serum i also like the smell of the lumen product more than a t-shiny product but when it comes to the t-shiny serum i definitely feel that it is doing its job because compared to the moisturizers this product makes my skin feel more tight after applying the product so both brands have products to actually work but it depends on the individual because after using both products respectfully for more than 60 days in my opinion it depends on your skin type and what your skin goes on the t skincare system level 1 is 25 level 2 is 35 dollars a level three is forty five dollars lumen offers a free trial for the classic maintenance set age management set and correction trio set and when it comes to these sets all of the products are free all you have to do is to pay for shipping which is around five dollars so overall when it comes to lumen and t shanley if i have to give you my opinion if you're someone that doesn't know what kind of skin you have and simply wants to take off your skin i would recommend you to try out lumen because that's the cheaper option and this way you won't spend a lot of money on a skincare system that you don't even know that will work but if you're someone that knows that you have very sensitive skin and wants to take care of it i would recommend t jenny because this is the better choice especially due to the face wash because that particular product is very subtle and thus if you're going to apply it to your sensitive skin you'll notice that over time it will really help your skin now so overall i would recommend you to get lumen if you're someone that doesn't know what kind of skin you have and just simply want to get started with skin care because this way you can get yourself a skincare system at a really affordable price but if you're someone that does know your skin type and you know that is very sensitive definitely go for teach hanley when it comes to these videos if you have any sort of questions definitely let me know in the comments down below and i'll happily reply so lemon was nice enough to offer exclusive free trial and also additional discount code for all of the other lumion products so i have that link down below and when it comes to tchanley if you use the link in the description and you order this system you can choose one free gift and that pretty much sums it up for this video i hope you found it informational and useful if you did definitely leave a thumbs up for the youtube algorithm and let me know in the comments down below and if you have any suggestions for future videos definitely let me know in the comments too anyways thank you so much for watching i hope you have a great day and i hope to see you on my next video bye bye [Music]
