Embracing conscious consumption and simple skincare routines. Essentially, it's a lifestyle choice that promises a more conscious and fulfilling relationship with our skincare routines and our overall well-being.
Tips for practicing slow beauty
Intuition: We are all influenced by friends and family, as well as content creators and even celebrities, but no one knows your skin as well as you do. Every scar, line, freckle and dimple tells your story. When choosing a product, listen to your intuition above all else.
Quality over quantity: Sometimes less is more. Using a minimal amount of high-quality products will not only save you money, but it will also save nature’s precious resources, as there will be fewer unloved jars and bottles sitting in drawers. Choose products that you’re excited to use every day, streamline your routine, and your skin will thank you for it.
Mindfulness: Focus on the experience of the products and incorporate mindfulness techniques like deep breathing or meditation. Being water-free, Inlight Beauty's organic balms have a unique texture. The divine formulations melt into the skin to leave a nourished, velvety feel. Create time and space to enjoy the products you apply for a self-care routine that benefits the whole you.
Connect with nature: Capture the morning sun or the golden hours of the evening to add a little more nature to your daily skincare routine. This can be augmented with a morning walk.
Create a soothing skincare ritual: Find quiet time to connect with your routine, making it more than just applying products.
Inlight Beauty's approach to Slow Beauty
Traditions, not trends: Generations of herbalists and alchemists have contributed to the important research behind every Inlight product. We don't follow trendy ingredients or chase exaggerated claims. Nature is our primary inspiration, reinforced by pure science, ancient alchemy and green chemistry. No trend can compete with tradition.
Products with a conscience: "With 95% of cosmetic packaging being thrown away, packaging is one of the biggest sustainability challenges facing the beauty industry." We can all take responsibility for the waste we bring into our homes by purchasing recycled and recyclable packaged products where it is possible to dispose of them responsibly. By choosing organic skincare products, we can also support the biodiversity of our lands and oceans.
Did you know that?
"There are about 75% more wild bees on organic farms and on average, plant, insect and bird life is 50% richer than on non-organic farms."
Natural, cruelty-free skincare is easy to find these days, be conscious in your choices when looking for ethical and sustainable skincare.
Artisanal Production: With a focus on small-scale production, we process raw materials as little as possible out of respect for their nature and to optimize their natural integrity and vitality. Each formula is honed for as long as it takes before we begin combining precious organic oils and plant extracts. Using ancient and modern alchemical methods, the ingredients are bathed in sunlight and moonlight for an entire lunar cycle before being transformed into the final jars and bottles. These processes require meticulous skill and caring hands to create truly artisanal skincare products.
