We seem to think that a complicated system always has to
be better. By layering numerous products on our skin on a daily basis, we must be
giving it everything it needs and then some, right? Surely this HAS to be the
way to go? Well, not necessarily.
I am all for embracing advances in skincare, and as a self
confessed beauty addict I am the first to admit to using my fair share of
products regularly. But sometimes simplicity wins hands down and Balm Balm does
exactly that.
I have to say that the price of these products is really
quite fantastic when you consider what you are getting. 100% organic, 100%
natural and Soil Association certified, Balm Balm founder Glenda Taylor aimed to
make a range like this accessible to all. It is hardly surprising that with her
wealth of expertise the products perform well too.
The ingredients list on every product is simple to
understand; personally, that is something I LOVE to see when looking at
products. Not only that but many of the products are multi-purpose. In addition
to the all over balms (as the name would suggest these can be used, well, all
over), many of the other products can be used in numerous ways too. Take the
Balm Balm Face Balm (£6.99) for example. Use it as a cleanser, as a moisturiser,
or as a balm to smooth lips or tackle dry skin patches. This highlights the
purity of the formulations perfectly; they can be used in so many ways.
My personal fave? Balm Balm Coconut Cleanser (£13.25)
Although an oil formulation, the product still cleanses well, works perfectly on my
combination skin and is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive. If
you are keen to try the range, then Balm Balm Organic Facial Kit (£13.25) would
be a good buy. The set contains 4 products plus a muslin cloth, for under £15. That has
to be worth a go!
