Hi Makers and Hunters! I’m Mykola, the CEO of the Wellness Unit, a sub brand of Gismart. I’m excited to launch our flagship app on Product Hunt - Luvly (previously Facetory). Luvly is the first face yoga app on a mission to help users nurture their authentic beauty and brilliance. Many women find themselves in constant search of natural beauty perfection, anti-aging solutions, and stress-relief techniques, but are afraid to go under the knife, try invasive therapies, lack the time, or simply prefer a natural approach to keep their skin youthful and glowing. Luvly is a solution. With our 15-minute face fitness programs, every woman can feel the immediate benefits of self-care: natural glow, toned facial muscles, relaxation, and confidence. Luvly’s content is curated by experts and involves: - Hyper-personalized flexible self-care programs; - AR face tracker; - 50+ unique face fitness exercises; - Breathing exercises; - Face massage courses; - Unique skin-care techniques created by dermatologists and cosmetologists; - Personalized nutrition plans to fit daily routines, prevent and fight skin issues; - Content library: skincare recommendations, expert advice, self-care guides; - Progress-tracking of daily facial care and regular skin analysis; - Design that reflects inclusivity and authenticity. I believe that beauty, authenticity, and self-care are essential not only to the visual appearance but to mental health as well. As a semi-professional triathlete and trail runner, I know how important self-care and wellness is. Luvly is a woman’s friend on her beauty journey, always ready to share expert advice and show the best exercises for her unique skin needs. Ladies, you deserve that “Me time!” and we will make it Luvly. Our ultimate goal is to transition Luvly to a self-care app with a comprehensive and holistic approach to women’s beauty and wellness. Stay tuned for updates! Let us know what you think in the comments below! I’d appreciate your feedback and recommendations. P.S. Even if you’re a man, don’t be afraid to learn more about the app, show it to your other half, sisters, mother, or try it yourself!

Ukrainian women, Luvly is FREE for you! You need to take care of your body, mind, and soul. Use Luvly as your “me” time to relieve stress, enhance mindfulness, and nurture your beauty and confidence.

Love the idea! It's a great and unique way to use the sensors on iPhones. Will definitely like to try it out and recommend it to people. Great job! Congratulations on the launch! 🎉

Great Innovation! Could prove a game changer in natural skin glow and heal boost!! Congrats on the launch🎊

Must have for all women who take care of themselves. My girlfriend is having skin issues, and it's driving me insane. I will suggest her to try this app, hopefully, her skin will improve. I briefly tried the app, and I was surprised to find not only massage/yoga techniques, but also educational content such as guides on how to balance a meal, or pick appropriate skincare products By the way, I have one question. Is this app only for women, or are some tips/exercises compatible with men as well?

Beneficial for those working from home and would help in enhancing natural beauty instead of going to salons. Congrats on the launch! :)

@mykola_tymkiv Great app! I guess that my wife will find useful this app😍 Also, we will add your app to our website shortly.

Looks like my wife will like it! Congratulations! 🎉

what an interesting idea!

Oh Wow. Ladies going to love this. Great Idea!..

My frown lines - beware.

Visited the Android App store and came across a barrage of complaints. While the ones related to user experience of the app, and volume of content (or lack thereof) might be legitimate grievances; many others are more in the nature of unrealistic expectations. For instance, one reviewer claims to have used the app's exercises twice daily for a week, but with no results. You can provide some 'How It Works' advice to nip such queries in the bud. Firstly, it is physiologically impossible to obtain results in one week, when the skin itself regenerates in 6 weeks. Three months would be a more realistic span to observe results. Also, the outcome will depend on the initial condition of the skin. Older users, especially 40+ will have a more daunting challenge than others. Iron out these wrinkles: temper their expectations, and provide a realistic timeline, in Quarter -Year chunks, for genuine results. Best wishes to Your venture, going forward.

Great app for women, what are your next steps in product development?

Hi everyone! Thanks for the support! Share this app with your mother, sisters and friends (men are also included 😅) as we would like to hear your feedback! Don't hesitate to contact me for any questions and sharing your improvements!

This app is really useful in terms of content and absolutely breathtaking from the design point of view. To my mind, it’ll be particularly handy for young women who want to postpone skin ageing and deal with first wrinkles. However, Chuck Brandt raised a very important issue about unrealistic expectations. I hope that the mentioned comment will help the developers adapt their strategy

Very nice design, and seems like these exercises will complement my usual evening facial routines nicely. Good job, team! 👏

This sounds amazing, might just make it a part of my pamper and de-stress routine, great job!🎉

Great idea!!! Congrats on the launch!

Looks really promising!

With respect, I doubt that “face yoga exercises” would contribute to healthier, younger-looking skin in the long term. I’ll remain open minded but, considering the claims you make, it might be nice to include links to studies that show—or at least suggest—that face yoga works. “P.S. Even if you’re a man, don’t be afraid to … try it yourself!” → Maybe they wouldn’t be if you didn’t use such gendered language (“Luvly is a woman’s friend”, “Ladies, you deserve that ‘Me time!’”) ;) You know, by suggesting that this app is meant for women (all the illustrations and photos in the screenshots are of women), you might be contributing to the spread of harmful stereotypes—hopefully unintentionally; that women ought to prize their appearance while men should not care.
