This time of year always leaves my skin dry, dehydrated, and flaky no matter how much water I drink or how many lotions, potions, and oils I slather on. My skin just suffers when it’s cold and dry which is why I was really excited to try out the Indulgence Collection by Inlight organic skincare; a tried and true product lineup that delivers radiant, glowing, and most importantly, moisturized skin!
The Inlight vision is to provide the highest quality organic skincare possible that is 100% organic and made with all natural ingredients. I’m a huge advocate for businesses who prioritize these values because the beauty industry, especially in the US is filled with toxicity. You can find out just how toxic your beauty products are just by visiting The Environmental Working Group (EWG). You may be shocked to see what’s lurking in your skincare products.
How to Hug Your Skin – Inlight Skincare Review
Inlight has a vision to offer organic, health focused, and powerful products that nourish your skin and restore balance.
They offer a few fun gift packs filled with travel size versions of their most popular products like the Mum’s Collection, Night Deluxe, Super Food Delight, Try Me Collection, Pamper Me Collection, Body Beautiful Collection, and the one I’ll be reviewing for you today: The Indulgence Collection because let’s be honest here, my skin could really use a bit of indulgence lately!
The products come in simple yet beautiful packaging and each bottle is made of a blue, almost miron-esc glass with silver lids and cute little labels. You can tell that these products are lovingly handmade.
You can see some of the process below:
The sizes are perfect for travel so you can put your best skin forward when on the go.
All of Inlight’s skincare is oil-based and are full of liposoluble vitamins, chlorophylls, and anthocyanins (flavonoids), so if you’re an avid Oil Cleansing Method follower, these are going to be right up your ally! You can get all of Inlight's wonderful products HERE.
Face Cleanser
The first product I tried was the face cleanser which features a multitude of nourishing plant oils and essential oils like lavender, lemon, rose, clove, cypress, rosemary, and ginger. All of these essential oils help to stimulate the skin, tone, calm, regenerate, and cleanse.
The consistency was like a thin balm that melts on contact with the skin. I used it on my skin after splashing it with a bit of warm water, then I took a pea sized amount of cleanser using the provided wooden spatula and massaged it into the skin. The formula felt very moisturizing and the essential oils have a very light pleasant aroma that is not at all overwhelming. This cleanser even removed my waterproof mascara!
Floral Face Tonic
The floral face tonic is a gentle alcohol-free infusion of earthy floral extracts that are ideal for removing the face cleanser. It contains rose, chamomile, lavender, and corn flower floral waters (made from extracting essential oils) as well as grapefruit seed extract; a powerful ingredient that cleanses, tones, and conditions the skin.
The combination of the potent floral waters give your skin a fresh and rejuvenated feeling after use that restores harmony to tired worn out skin.
The scent is lightly herbaceous and earthy.
The floral face tonic is the only non-oil-based product offered by Inlight.
Line Softener
This little line softener packs a lot of punch and I can see it lasting for quite a while before I need to pick up more.
The formula is slightly thicker than the face cleanser and has a medium bodies aroma that’s infused with powerful essential oils like rose, geranium, lemon, and patchouli. It also contains some potent plant extracts known for their anti-aging and intense skin repairing qualities like carrot root extract, calendula, plantain, evening primrose, and macadamia nut oil.
I found that a little goes a loooong way which makes me happy because this is one of my favorite products in the gift set. My skin feels so soft and supple for hours after using this on fine lines. I have also been using it as a preventative on the delicate skin around the eyes. It’s very hydrating and seems like it firms the skin.
Daily Face Oil
This is such a lovely face oil and is probably my favorite product and it smells AMAZING! After applying the line softener, you apply this oil to the remainder of your face to complete the indulgence experience.
This oil is made with jojoba oil, evening primrose oil, and mallow extract and contains a delicious blend of rose, vanilla, and lavender essential oils. These oils calm inflammation and redness, restore the skin, and tone the complexion.
The moisture offered by this oil lasts all day and actually helped balance my oily skin after just a few days of use. My skin also felt super soft and healthy, no more dry itchy flaky skin!
A Couple Extras - Inlight Skincare Review
I also had the chance to review two lovely oil-based face masks! Just keep in mind that they don't come in the Indulgence kit.
Chocolate Face Mask
This face mask is luxuriant, indulgent, and nourishing and made my skin feel soooo smooth. It contains baobab powder that acts as a very effective mild exfoliant and I was pleasantly surprised by how well this mask works for removing dead skin cells.
I took a scoop of the mask and gently spread it over my face. I then gently massaged and exfoliated my skin with the mask and then let it sit for 20 minutes while the potent ingredients went to work. This mask contains a multitude of nourishing extracts and oils, shea butter, and cocoa powder.
After use, my skin felt decongested, cleansed, and very soft! You can get this mask in a travel size for easy use on the go.
Superfood Face Mask
This mask may look a bit scary when you open it since it’s green and a bit earthy smelling, but don’t let that stop you from trying it. This mask is the ultimate anti-oxidant when it comes to reviving tired dull skin. This mask is oil-based and is an amazing mask to use for acne prone skin as it heals blemishes, reduces redness, and improves hydration.
It contains spiralina and a number of highly healing oils and plant extracts as well as exfoliating baobab powder. My skin felt refreshed and decongested after using it. This mask also comes in a travel size for easy use.
In Conculsion
These were some really fun products to try and I was pleasantly surprised with the results. These are potent and really delivered the results I was looking for which was revived, nourished, and hydrated skin!
I would recommend giving one of the gift sets to someone as a gift, I know I thoroughly enjoyed trying out these products and actually seeing positive results.
Let me know if you give them a try! 🙂 You can also learn how make your own spa day indulgence here.

Thanks for sharing this!

I started a skincare routine last year that works well, but it's all conventional stuff - likely a bit of a chemical burden. Just like everything else in my house and on my plate, I'm looking for healthier swaps, piece by piece. I might have to give these a second look, thanks.

The road to natural skincare can definitely be a challenging one! Best of luck Courtney 🙂
