(60 ml) So soothing for those worn-out feet and heavy feeling legs. With the restoring and revitalizing hazelnut, coconut and evening primrose oils together with witch hazel, rosehip and the delicate fragrance of lavender.

What we think: “Have used the foot and leg balm a couple of times and think it is good. Nice to apply and stays moisturised without being oily. Lovely smell. Only thing it hasn’t done yet is to put a spring in my step but I reckon a couple more applications…”

Our skin is the most extensive and exposed organ of our body and the products we rub on our skin are largely absorbed into our system and can affect our health….
With this is mind we have been speaking to our friends at Inlight who are based in the delightful Cornish countryside (on the farm owned by our wonderful ice-cream maker Roskilly’s to be exact). Inlight’s team of experts draw on the healing power of Nature to bring you their health giving cosmethics. They are trained and guided by Dr Mariano Spiezia, who, having developed each formula based on his 30 years of research and medical practice, also takes care of the manual production and product development, supported by a team of expert biologists, medical homeopaths and pharmacists.

Inlight like to call their products Cosmethics as they are ethically produced and all the ingredients used in their products are certified organic with accreditation from the Soil Association. They contain nothing but the very best ingredients, 100% organic oils, herbs, essential oils and beeswax, largely of food grade quality. For example the oils they use are cold-pressed and the same as they use to dress their salads! The herbs and flowers, all certified organic, are sourced from Cornwall where possible.

These products do not contain water*, alcohol, or anything synthetic. No ingredient or product has ever been tested on any animal. All products are suitable for Vegetarians and the oils for Vegans.

*the Organic Floral Face Tonic is a blend of the purest organic floral waters.

Inlight products are suitable for all skin types and all ages particularly for people who are allergic or have sensitive skins. All products are suitable to use alongside homeopathic treatment.

Their ethics don’t just stop with the cosmetics. Their jars and bottles always contain a proportion of recycled glass (never less than 40%) which are coloured on the outside only with atoxic and biodegradable inks. The lids are made from 98% recycled material and is 100% recyclable. The dropper in the Floral Face Tonic is recyclable, the spatulas are made from birch or beech wood from sustainable sources and the boxes are 100% recyclable.

The team at River Cottage have tested some of these products and we are happy to share our thoughts with you.
