Our method

How Luma Index works

We don't test masks, award stars or rank products. We collect what each maker publishes, check it against manuals, regulators and independent coverage, and show you where the information came from.

Our research method →

CollectProduct pages, manuals, declarations, studies and UK retailer listings.
LabelEvery fact marked as manufacturer-stated, verified, calculated, conflicting or missing.
CompareThe same details for every mask, so differences and gaps are easy to see.
