Inlight Hair Elixir | Review

Press Sample (Affiliated Links)

You may remember that I reviewed, and absolutely fell in love with, Inlight's Supreme Eye Serum (Reviewed HERE) and Inlight's Face Oil (Reviewed HERE) last year, and I am equally thrilled by their new Hair Elixir.

Inlight is a UK-based skincare company that has a mission to create the highest quality organic skincare products, made from ethically sourced ingredients, and their socially and environmentally responsible sustainability practices helped them become the first UK skincare company to achieve Cosmos accreditation.

Their new Hair Elixir is a very high quality hair oil that can be used as a pre-shampoo conditioning treatment, or as a leave-in, and I prefer to use it as a leave-in to tame frizz, nourish and hydrate my hair and scalp, and to give hair a lustrous shine. Furthermore, it is 100% organic, cruelty-free and made from very high quality natural ingredients. It boasts serious efficacy, is a treat to use and has a pleasant earthy aroma that isn't cloying or overpowering.

I should note that the spray bottle has a fine enough mist that effectively covers the hair with minimal waste, but you can also spray it into your hands, warm it between your palms and work it though your hair.

According to Inlight,

A multi-purpose blend of restorative and nourishing oils to actively fortify and regenerate all hair types, delivering intense hydration whilst improving elasticity. With refreshing notes of lavender and lemon zest.

Strength and shine are visibly restored thanks to powerful nourishers such as Argan, Avocado, Jojoba and Rosa rubiginosa oils, and health giving botanical extracts of Rosemary, Nettle, Horsetail and Burdock. Our in-house extracts, produced through a slow method of infusion, help to keep the vitality of every ingredient intact.

Inlight Supreme Eye Serum and Organic Face Oil | Review

Press Sample (Affiliated Links)

I am always overjoyed by the discovery of high quality organic skincare products that only use  sustainably sourced ingredients, are cruelty-free, and are a treat to the skin and the senses. It is for these very reasons that I am so pleased to share Inlight Supreme Eye Serum and Organic Face Oil, and of course my penchant for high quality oils makes this all the more wonderful.  Inlight is a UK-based skincare company that has a mission to create the highest quality organic skincare products, made from ethically sourced ingredients, and their socially and environmentally responsible sustainability practices helped them become the first UK skincare company to ear Cosmos accreditation.

About Inlight,

Years of research, scientific knowledge and love for nature 
make Inlight one of a kind, with products that work on and with your skin for visible, lasting results.
Inlight Supreme Eye Serum ($268.00 for .40oz. from Hug Your Skin): This lightweight, and fast absorbing, oil-based eye serum is very nourishing and moisturizing, and it leaves the delicate skin around the eyes remarkably soft, smooth, hydrated, toned and lifted. Furthermore, it softens the appearance of fine lines, does not cause milia and it brightens the skin and leaves it luminous.

Dr. Spiezia, who created this eye serum, infused this precious oil with gemstones and flowers to super-charge the formula, and while I can't specifically speak to how the presence of the gemstone infusion enhanced the efficacy of this formula compared to other oil-based eye serums without a gemstone infusion, I can say that Inlight Supreme Eye Serum is remarkably effective, and it delivers tangible results. Its aroma is a light and pleasant floral, but it is non-irritating, and it fades very quickly.

According to Inlight,

The culmination of two years research by Dr Spiezia, Supreme Eye Serum is the perfect synergy of flowers, oils and gemstones. Intensely nourishing yet as light as silk, this product is super-charged and sparkling with its own trio of precious gemstones nestling in every bottle.

Every ruby, sapphire and zircon is individually and lovingly prepared over the course of two months by Dr Spiezia himself to subtly restore and sharpen your skin’s own frequency and you will soon see the effects – a luminous, silky and toned eye contour.

Key benefits:
  • Improves skin texture, tones and stimulates skin regeneration
  • Leaves skin radiant, smooth and soft
  • Brightens the eye contour
  • Safe around the eye area

Directions: Using the dropper, drip one drop of Inlight Supreme Eye Serum onto your ring finger tip and very gently smooth it in, working from the tear duct outwards, on both eye lid and under the eye, until fully absorbed. Repeat on the other eye. For best effects, use morning and night.
