This balm is like butter. It’s so lovely, with an almost whipped texture like frosting, it’s entirely fragrance and scent free and glides right onto and into the skin. It melts and disperses very quickly into the skin and leaves a pleasantly non-greasy finish. I used it as a face treatment, makeup remover, lip balm, deep moisturizer and it worked a treat for all applications. It feels like even the most sensitised skin could handle this balm. The sleek white pot also looks fantastic sitting on the bathroom benchtop.

It came with minimal packaging, which was wonderful – Less to throw in the bin! They use only three types of packaging, all of which are easily recyclable or reusable and it’s wonderful that they are palm-oil free. Like last year, I’m really pleased that their charitable efforts are mostly directed towards women and children.
