The Art of Slow Beauty

Embracing mindful consumption, simple routines and an intuitive approach to skincare.

At the core of the slow beauty movement is an emphasis on sustainable practices and mindful rituals of self care, encouraging us to choose natural ingredients and ethical practices for a slower, more intentional approach to beauty. A shift from habitual routines to immersive experiences. In essence, it’s a lifestyle choice that promises a more conscious and fulfilling relationship with our skincare regimens and over-all wellbeing.

Tips for practicing slow beauty

Intuition

We all take influence from 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 dimples traces the story of you. When you select 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 also save nature’s precious resources as there will be less un-loved pots and bottles sat in drawers. Choose products that you are 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 include minduness techniques like deep breathing or meditation. Being waterless, Inlight Beauty's organic balms have a unique texture. The divine formulations melt into the skin to give a nourished, velvety feel. Make time and space to enjoy the products you apply for a self care routine that benefits your whole self.

Connect with nature

Catch the morning rays of sunlight, or the golden hours of the evening to add a little more nature to your daily skincare practice. This could be extended with a morning walk or your favourite herbal tea.

Create a calming skincare ritual

Find quiet time to connect with your regeim, making it more than just the application of products.

Inlight Beauty's approach to Slow Beauty

Traditions not Trends

Generations of herbalists and alchemists have fed into the essential research that is behind every Inlight product. We don’t follow trending ingredients or chase exaggerated claims. Nature is the primary inspiration for us, enhanced by pure science, ancient alchemy and green chemistry. No trend can compete with tradition.

Products with a conscience

95% of cosmetic packaging is thrown away. (1) We can each take responsibility for the waste we bring into our homes by purchasing recycled and recyclable packaged products where possible and carefully disposing of them. Furthermore, by choosing organic skincare products we can support bio-diversity in our lands and oceans.

Did you know:

There are around 75% more wild bees on organic farms and on average, plant, insect and bird life is 50% more abundant than on non-organic farms. (2)

Natural, cruelty free skincare is easy to find nowadays, be deliberate in your choices when looking for ethical and sustainable skincare.

Artisanal Production

Focusing on small batch productions, we work raw materials as little as possible out of respect for their nature, and to optimise their natural integrity and vital force. Each formula is perfected for as long as it takes before we begin combining precious organic oils and botanicals. Tapping into ancient and modern alchemic practices, the ingredients are bathed in sunlight and moonlight for a full lunar cycle before being transformed into the final jars and bottles. These processes require careful skill and thoughtful hands to create truly artisanal skincare products.
