Green Chemistry and
The Power of Ingredients
Explore how here at Inlight Beauty, we harnesses the science of green chemistry and the purity of nature to create skincare that’s both powerful and planet-friendly.
What is Green Chemistry?
Green chemistry is a modern approach to science that focuses on creating products and processes that are safe, sustainable, and kind to the environment. In the world of skincare and wellness, this means using naturally derived ingredients, reducing waste, and avoiding harmful chemicals. Green chemistry works hand in hand with nature - harnessing the power of plants in a way that’s effective for the body and gentle on the planet.
At Inlight Beauty, we embody the principles of green chemistry in everything we do, blending scientific innovation with a deep respect for the environment. Our brand is dedicated to creating products that are both highly effective and truly eco-friendly. Here’s how:
Our products are organic certified by the Soil Association/COSMOS
All products are handcrafted in small batches in Cornwall, UK. This artisanal approach avoids mass production, ensuring meticulous attention to detail and reducing waste.
We use sustainably sourced, certified organic ingredients, including food-grade oils and botanicals. For instance, our organic beeswax is obtained without harming bee colonies, supporting biodiversity.
A unique extraction process is followed, where botanical ingredients are infused in cold-pressed oils over a full lunar cycle, exposed to sunlight and moonlight. This method preserves the vitality of the ingredients without the use of synthetic chemicals.
Packaging is designed with sustainability in mind, utilizing recyclable materials and MIRON violet glass, which protects product integrity and extends shelf life.
Through these practices, we are demonstrating a commitment to green chemistry, creating skincare products that are kind to both the skin and the environment.
The Power of Ingredients
Here at Inlight Beauty, the power of natural ingredients is at the heart of our green chemistry approach. We use only natural, plant-based botanicals, carefully extracted using gentle, sustainable methods that preserve their full vitality. By avoiding synthetic chemicals and embracing nature’s own solutions, we create skincare that’s not only effective and nourishing, but also kind to the planet - just as it should be.
Natural Antioxidants: The Secret to Beauty and Long-Lasting Skin Health
Natural antioxidants are a powerful ally for healthy skin and overall well-being. Found in plant-based compounds, organic oils, and botanical extracts, they help protect against damage caused by free radicals – one of the main factors behind ageing and tired-looking skin. Using them daily on the face, body, hair and neck can gently nourish and regenerate the skin, keeping it strong and healthy.
Phytocomplexes: Nature’s Active Blends
Phytocomplexes are natural combinations of beneficial substances found in plants. Thanks to their mix of flavonoids, polyphenols, vitamins and other nutrients, they offer strong antioxidant protection. Plants like green tea, red vine, rosemary and ginkgo biloba are especially effective – helping to fight oxidative stress, improve skin tone, and enhance the skin’s overall appearance.
Organic Oils: Everyday Nourishment and Protection
Organic plant oils are full of vitamins, essential fatty acids and antioxidants. While oils like argan, rosehip and jojoba are well known, others such as evening primrose, coconut, sesame and olive oil are just as valuable. Regular use keeps skin hydrated and supple, helping to prevent dryness and loss of elasticity. They’re also great for hair and scalp health.
Botanical Extracts: Concentrated Plant Power
Extracts from flowers, leaves and roots are rich in active ingredients. Chamomile, calendula and centella asiatica are particularly known for their soothing, repairing and strengthening properties – ideal for sensitive or stressed skin. Daily use can support the skin’s natural balance and encourage regeneration, leaving it looking fresh and radiant.
Daily Care for Natural, Long-Lasting Beauty
Bringing natural antioxidants into your skincare routine is a simple but effective way to care for yourself. Their combined effects help your skin stay stronger, brighter and more resilient – while supporting overall health and encouraging a more mindful, balanced approach to ageing.
Choosing nature is a gentle, powerful gesture – a path to true beauty and harmony between body, mind and the environment.
