About Lumeria
The Lumoscope is a multispectral camera that clips onto your phone and scans your skin at home with the same light used in clinics. You see what a mirror can't: a breakout days before it surfaces, and wrinkles changing over time. Our software then reads that history, connects flare-ups to causes you'd never suspect, and matches products to what your own data shows works.

Everyone owns skincare products, but nobody knows what's actually working.

We applied to @ycombinator 30 seconds before the deadline, had 5 major typos we couldn't edit after, and watched people on X get interviews within days while we heard nothing (thought it was joever).

Lumeria is now backed by Y Combinator! Misdiagnosed 4 times in 5 months, I became allergic to my own sweat.
Lumeria is now backed by Y Combinator! Misdiagnosed 4 times in 5 months, I became allergic to my own sweat. So I built the lumoscope: multispectral imaging that tracks your skin, flags product allergies, and guides your routine from home. Waitlist: https://t.co/JtDyWzibVK...

People thought we were crazy for dropping everything to build a skincare device. Here's why we did it anyway. Maryanne was shadowing dermatologists when she noticed the gap: clinics have the imaging tools to actually understand skin, but the moment you go home, you're back to guessing. She'd already built a 7-time award-winning biotech device by 18, and couldn't stop thinking about bringing that same imaging into people's homes. Anthea was living that gap firsthand. Sophomore year at Berkeley, a wound that wouldn't heal: 2 months to see a doctor, 5 months to see a dermatologist, misdiagnosed 4 times, and no data to explain why nothing was working. She'd spent years in computational biology, building pipelines at Google and Boehringer Ingelheim, and knew exactly what was missing: the data to actually make sense of what her skin was doing. One had the vision. The other had the gears turning to build the answer. Together, that became Lumeria: a multispectral device that clips onto your phone and tracks your skin the way your watch tracks your heart. Preorders are open now. This is the start of skincare finally having real data behind it. 🌟 #skincarestartup #eczema #skinhealth #derm #skintracker #YCombinator #foundersjourney #skincaretech #atHomeSkincare #skinbarrier #chronicskin #womeninhealthtech #healthtech #skinhealthdata
