Beauty balms have been all the recent hype. So many brands are releasing beauty balms and people have been loving them. The only beauty balm that I have tried is the one I am going to review for you guys today.
Previously I tried and reviewed cosmetics by Neal's Yard Remedies which were very impressive. If you haven't seen that feel free to check it out here.
I've been using their Wild Rose beauty balm (£37) for months and months now to give you guys a great review. I also found out that it is actually an award winning product! This products is also organic and not tested on animals like the other NYR products.
This is a multi-functional product. You can use it as an exfoliating cleanser, a balancing mask or as a nourishing balm. I am pretty sure later on I will figure out other ways of using this too! It contains wild rosehip oil which helps to repair your skin and make it firm and smooth. It also contains geranium, starflower, hemp and rosemary seed oil, which helps to enrich the skin and helping it restore natural radiance.It smells really lovely. Quite an organic and natural scent. The product itself is not too stiff nor soft. You do have to warm it up with your fingers once you start using it. I still haven't used it up completely after using it for months because you don't need alot of it.
I use my finger tips to massage this onto my dry skin and wipe it with a hot muslin cloth which came with this. Once you start to massage this onto your skin, it breaks down to somewhat like an oil cleanser. I do this every other day and honestly my skin feels really refreshed and not to mention how soft it feels. It doesn't strip and natural oils on my skin either. Sometimes I leave this balm on for half an hour (or even more) and then use a muslin cloth to wipe it away. That is like a skin treat. You can even leave it on over night which will make your skin feel amazing. I can see my that my skin looks different in the morning and alot more supple. It adds radiance to my skin, makes it appear healthy and I can feel that. I can't tell you how much I love this. I have blemish prone skin and it even helps with that by making any blemishes disappear. This is probably because of the rosehip oil in it. It helps with dry patches that you may get as well which I do alot of the times. Another thing I noticed, this is making my skin-tone appear alot more even. It has so many uses. I think some people even use it as a lip conditioner and with the many uses it has, it gives you many amazing results on return.
It costs a little but in my personal opinion, 100% worth it. It will last a long time too. One of the best skincare products I have used in a while!
I would love to know what you think!Have you tried this beauty balm?Hareem x
