Editorial Submission Guidelines

Follow these steps to get your article published online.

We are creating a lifestyle publication; we're building a brand that our audience can feel good about supporting.
We aim to be a source of inspiration and integrity in a sometimes-overwhelming digital world.

Submit Your Work to Lumina Hive Lifestyle Magazine

At Lumina Hive, we welcome thoughtful contributors who share our passion for mindful living, timeless style, and meaningful storytelling. Our mission is to provide readers with curated, inspiring, and editorial-quality content across our four main sections: Cuisine, Home, Wellness, and Style.

If you’d like to contribute an article, feature, or story, please review our submission guidelines below.

Articles must be original and related to the lifestyle industry.

Segments served by the industry include fashion, personal care, beauty, cuisine, wellness, nutrition, fitness, toiletries, fine fragrances, travel, interior design, and home decor.

A brief outline describing the major points of the article must be submitted before publication.

Articles must be original in nature, with a maximum of 4 charts/graphs per article. Please supply the charts/graphs in two formats. First, as a completed and second artwork that is text-free.

It is the author’s responsibility to make sure that papers submitted to Lumina Hive are cleared by all third parties. For example, if a paper was originally presented at a conference, it is the author’s responsibility to make sure the conference organizers have approved the paper’s publication in Lumina Hive.

Papers should not have appeared in direct competitors of Lumina Hive or similar journals.

Papers must be focused on trends having an impact on the markets Lumina Hive serves.

Applicable to Personal Care products, papers must be non-commercial in nature. If using Chemical names (INCI), the tradenames must be indicated next to the chemical names..

Trademarks, copyrights, registration marks, and related symbols will not be published in the article.

Article lengths vary by subject, but as a general rule, articles should not exceed 2000 words.

The preferred format for submissions is Google Docs. Do not submit documents that cannot be edited. They will not be accepted.

Articles must arrive by the first of the month, three months prior to publication. For example, an article that will be published in the May issue must be received by February 1.

Once the article has been put in page form, a copy will be sent to the author to review before publication.
