First Impressions
The monthly Beauty Heroes delivery comes in a white box with a red-dotted sticker sealing it. Inside, our products of the month fit perfectly.
Our discovery brand this month is Inlight Beauty, a brand that creates 100% organic, handcrafted skincare products with an emphasis on the use of pure, natural ingredients to promote healthy, radiant skin. They specialize in oil-based, waterless formulas that mimic the skin's natural sebum, allowing for effective absorption and nourishment without the need for synthetic preservatives. Just what our winter skin ordered!
If you're looking for ideas for how to work your new skincare products in with what you've received in past Beauty Heroes boxes, here is their suggestion, incorporating recent Josh Rosebrook, Oio Lab, and Aplyn Beauty deliveries. For once I have all these products on hand and can't wait to try this epic skincare moment.
The Products
Inlight's packaging is so peaceful and inviting. I had a close friend visiting from out of town when my Beauty Heroes box arrived, and as we stood side by side, we both let out an audible exhale when we beheld the watercolor sweetness of these Inlight boxes.
Inlight Beauty Night Balm, 45 mL - Retail Value $89
The first is this organic night balm, meant to be massaged into a clean face and neck each evening. It's loaded up with sesame, sunflower, and evening primrose seed oils, which provide antioxidants, while macadamia and jojoba seed oils help balance oil production. These oils come together to form a rich, luxurious balm that seriously melts into the skin, and smells absolutely botanically blissful. Lavender and orange come forward most prominently for me, but the scent is much more complex than those two alone, especially while being massaged into the skin. I love that they provided a visual of how much to use under the box lid, so that you aren't too bogged down by the this nourishing balm, and so that it lasts. In the morning, my skin was noticeably soft. Magic in a jar.
The color! Oh the color! That alone provides a little sunshine in the dreariest season. Plus, the small wooden spatula that comes with it is a joy to use. It's wild how much nicer of an experience it is than plastic.
Inlight Beauty Face Oil, 30 mL - Retail Value $69
Typically you see a face oil being recommended for use before or after your moisturizer. But this one is described as a moisturizer in and of itself. It's 100% organic and designed to nourish and protect and hydrate the skin, promote cell renewal, and provide a protective barrier with its lovely blend of jojoba, rosehip, and evening primrose. The aroma is light and cheery, a vanilla and rose combo, although my friend pointed out that she got hints of bubblegum and my eyes widened, because I totally picked up on it too. It's really pleasant.
The consistency is lightweight and the result is a brightening glow. I like using this Face Oil in the morning because of how deeply hydrating it feels without being heavy. The scent is such a great way to enter my day.
Verdict
The December Beauty Heroes box ended the year on a strong note. We were sent two products from Inlight Beauty, a brand that last showed up in the August 2023 box (see here) but with products that, to me, felt more impactful than my previous exposure. The scents, the rich-meets-soft textures, the absorption and hydration—it's all there! The total retail value here is $158, which is both impressive and very worthwhile.
