Christmas Gifting with INLight Beauty

A brand that is new to my stash is INLight Beauty, a natural, organic Skincare and Beauty Brand that uses Science and Nature to fuse their our expertly formulated skincare collections which are designed to work with your skin, rather than only on it, bringing beauty to life.
INLight Beauty
Handcrafted in Cornwall, UK, the brand is 100% Organic Certified and of course, Cruelty-free.

I have the INLight Beauty Body Ritual Gift Set (£32) to share today and if ever there is a way to be introduced to a brand, a gift set like this is definitely it.  The INLight Beauty Body Ritual Gift Set is made up of two products - The Body Oil (30ml) and the Foot Balm (15ml).

The Body Oil with Arnica is described as being a deeply warming, soothing body oil and it features a complex of plants and astringent herb extracts which work to relax, rejuvenate and promote suppleness and elasticity and leave your skin with a lustrous, silky sheen.

Ideal for use as a massage oil, it features anti-oedemic and anti-inflammatory arnica, apricot kernel oil and vitamin E-rich evening primrose oil which come together to rejuvenate and nourish. What I really love about this body oil is that it has this silky consistency which isn't greasy. One of my big issues with any body oil is that if it feels like cooking oil, i'm not using it, I want luxury and I want to enjoy any product I am applying, this is definitely luxurious.  

As it glides onto the skin, it is the perfect tonic for tired and aching muscles as it so soothing, perfect for those post-work out treats, or in my case a few hours of cleaning an maybe some ironing.  You only need a few drops of this oil and ive found that using it after showering is the perfect time to use, when the skin is still slightly damp, better still, using it with a body brush is heavenly.

Then the foot balm, not the favourite part of my anatomy and nor anyone elses for that matter, this balm is described as being the balm to melt away rough skin whilst reviving tired, aching feet and legs.

Formulated to promote better circulation and to support weak veins, it uses witch hazel and cypress whose vasotonic and astringent properties come together with the healing and qualities of marigold, lavender, and plantain to restore, calm and tone. The particular combination of ingredients makes this balm ideal for both foot and leg massage and it is also great for use on dry or cracked heels and feet.  This balm does come with a spatula and I find that one spatula full is enough for each foot, you will need more if you plan to use it on your legs, but a little goes a long way.

Again, used after bathing or showering when the trotters are clean and fresh, you simply massage the balm into the toes, soles, and heel, applying more to those areas of skin which are cracked or dry. On contact with the skin, this balm does melt quickly, so care is needed if you plan to walk around after using and despite my loathing of feet, there is something quite relaxing about a foot massage (even if you have to grit your teeth).

A really lovely gift set from INLight Beauty and most definitely a brand I want to learn more about and use more products from.
