The renaissance of your skin.
At Lumié Paris, we believe your skin's intelligence should be honored, not fought.
Queen Oil is crafted without empty fillers, without synthetic fragrances, without water-bases that simply wash away. Every single drop is a biologically active botanical, selected to penetrate the skin barrier and support deep, lasting renewal.
Pure structural biology.
Four hero actives. Each chosen for one job, each clinically defensible, each something your skin will feel before you've finished applying.
Bakuchiol delivers the cellular-turnover effects associated with retinol without the photo-sensitivity, dryness or flushing. Safe for daily morning and evening use, and safe on the most reactive skin.
Retinol-like
zero photosensitivity, zero irritation
Tsubaki oil has been used by the women of the Imperial Court for over a thousand years. Its oleic-acid profile mirrors human sebum, allowing it to disappear into the skin while leaving an unmistakable satin finish.
1,000+ years
of recorded ritual use
One of the rarest fatty-acid profiles in the plant world. The deep orange colour comes from a uniquely high concentration of carotenoids and palmitoleic acid, both critical for skin barrier repair and a healthy, lit-from-within tone.
Omega-7
+ carotenoids, palmitoleic acid
Evening primrose is one of the few botanical sources of gamma-linolenic acid. GLA is anti-inflammatory at the cellular level and is consistently linked in dermatological literature to improvements in skin density, particularly during the hormonal shifts of midlife.

anti-inflammatory ω-6
A different category of body care.
Most body products are water held together by emulsifiers, or a single oil mislabeled as a treatment. Queen is neither.

Why I made this oil.
After years of formulating for other brands, I realised the body had been left out of the serious skincare conversation. Everything below the jawline was either over-perfumed or under-thought.
Queen is what I would want on my own skin every morning. No shortcuts. No filler. Just sixteen botanicals doing one job each — and a scent that grounds me before I leave the bathroom.
A letter from Paris.
I remember standing in a pharmacy in Paris, reading the back of every bottle, and finding nothing that felt worthy of the woman I had become.
Everything was either clinical and cold, or filled with cheap synthetics disguised by heavy perfumes. I wanted a true botanical luxury — something that honored the intelligence of our skin and the sacredness of our daily moments.
Queen Oil is the result of years of formulation in France. Not for the mass market. For myself.
And then for you.
What the editors are writing.
Vogue Paris
Queen Oil disappears into the skin in seconds, leaving behind something that feels older than 'firmness' and more honest than 'glow.' This is the body oil we keep refilling.
Madame Figaro
The most considered new body oil out of Paris this year. Bakuchiol meets bottled-in-Grasse cypress — and the price feels almost guilty for the formulation.
Elle
Sixteen actives, zero water, zero apology. Queen reads more like a perfumer's brief than a body-care launch — and that's exactly why it works.
Every detail, considered.
The information you would expect from a maison that takes its formulation seriously.
100 ml ℮ 3.4 fl. oz. apothecary glass with a brushed-bronze cap. Net weight ~130 g. Designed to live on your bathroom counter, not in a drawer.
The complete 16-ingredient INCI is published on our dedicated formulation page — every active, every percentage, every botanical sourcing note.
Not a body lotion. Not a body butter. Not a tanning oil. Not a perfume. Not a single-oil dupe. Queen is a multi-active dry body oil — every drop is formulated to work.
Best within 24 months of opening. Store away from direct sunlight at room temperature. Natural carotenoids may cause subtle batch-to-batch colour variation — this is a sign of unfiltered, unrefined oil, not a defect.

Free shipping over $90 within US/UK/EU. Standard delivery 5–8 business days.

Questions, gently answered.
Speak with our concierge in Paris.
concierge@lumie.parisYes. Queen is formulated without synthetic fragrance, without water, and with naturals kept below 0.4% — eliminating the preservatives and concentrations that most often trigger reactive skin. Every batch is patch-tested under dermatological control.
No. Queen is a true dry oil — its molecular weight and rapid absorption profile means it leaves no residue on cotton, silk or cashmere within four minutes of application.
Approximately 15 days with daily use. A few drops cover the whole body — Queen is engineered for efficiency, not volume.
A sophisticated, grounding blend of Cypress, Lemon and Rosemary, distilled in Grasse. Earthy, green, with a brightness on the top note. The scent settles into the skin within 90 seconds and never competes with your fragrance.
Most clients describe the texture and absorption as transformative from the first application. Visible density and firmness improvement is observed clinically at 28 days, with full results at 56 days of daily ritual.
A lotion is largely water held in suspension by emulsifiers. Queen is 100% biologically active botanical oil — every drop works. Nothing in the bottle is filler.
