Storage Advice!

Store Below 30 degrees celsius - products can melt above 33 degrees celsius.

As these balms contain natural plant butters that melt between 33 - 38 degrees celsius it is a good idea to store the balms below 30 degrees celsius.
Those living in warmer climates may find it beneficial to store their balm in the refrigerator.
If the products do melt we advise to place the product in the refrigerator as soon as possible - this helps the product to re-set as a smooth balm. If set at room temperature the butters can separate out. The products will still be effective and will melt as soon as they are placed on skin but the texture will be a little bit grainy.

Soothing Balm

* Relieve * Strengthen * Rehydrate *

A deeply moisturising and soothing balm for sensitive, dry skin. This is a soothing butter and oil based balm that can deeply moisturise and bring relief to dry, sensitive and irritated skin including eczema and dermatitis. As it is 100% oil/ butter based, therefore you only need to use a small amount at a time.

Ingredients include

Soothing and healing Shea butter
Calming Chamomile oil
Peppermint oil to decrease irritation
Lavender to assist in skin healing and renewal
Jojoba oil to enhance the absorption of the above natural goodies

Although oil based this can help to balance out skin oil production.After using skin feels moisturised and less irritated and continues to encourage skins own healing ability over the next few days. It helps to reduce that fragile skin feeling as skin becomes stronger and firmer. This can help to soothe eczema. It may eliminate mild to moderate eczema by strengthening the skin. Severe eczema may need further assistance.

How to Use

This is a multi-tasking balm that can be used in several ways.....

For very sensitive skin on face/neck area -

Use as a daily moisturiser - use a small amount (about the size of 2 grains of rice), rub between fingers and then apply gently to face, neck and dab off any excess balm after a minute or two.
Use as evening moisturiser - use same method as for daily moisturiser.
Use in the evening as a moisturising treatment mask. Apply a thicker layer cleansed skin and either massage in or leave on for 15 - 20 minutes. Gently wipe off any excess with a tissue or paper towel - this allows the skin to breathe. You can use this as often as needed.

For irritated skin/ eczema/ dermatitis in general -

Massage a small amount into irritated area. Leave on for 15-20 minutes and then gently wipe off excess.
For those that have trouble with sensitivity to body moisturisers this can be used instead. On clean, dry skin massage in a small amount. Eg - for lower leg - will only need a 'pea' sized amount of balm for whole lower leg. Thirsty skin will soak this up quickly.

Care for your product

As there are no added chemicals/ preservatives in this product we encourage you to make sure you wash your hands before dipping into the balm. Some of the ingredients do have some natural anti microbial properties. Store below 30 degrees celcius. We suggest refrigeration in warmer climates. If left in heat the balms may melt as the butters used will melt in temperatures above 30 degrees.

How to Use

A multi- tasking eye balm that has several uses...

Daily and evening moisturiser/ super hydrator for eyes
Wrinkle fighter in evening
Treatment for dry/ irritated skin around eyes
Primer for eye make up

* this product contains about 25% shea butter which is temperature sensitive - it starts to melt between 33- 38 degrees (see information at top of page re this) and can be quite firm at temperatures below 15 degrees celcius. If ambient temperature is less than 15 degrees celcius you may need to rub balm between fingers for a few seconds (as shea butter melts at normal body temperature) before applying to eye area.

Daily and evening moisturiser for eyes

For dewy eyes apply a small amount around eye area and gently dab off any excess

Wrinkle fighter in evening

to diminish lines/ wrinkles/ "crepe paper" under-eyes - apply a thicker layer of eye balm, leave on for 15-20 minutes and then gently wipe off any excess, if any (some find the balm is totally absorbed). Skin renewal occurs overnight so the balm will help to 'heal' those lines and wrinkles. Use nightly or as often as possible to fight wrinkles. Add a zinc supplement a few times a week to help the skin renewal process - see below for more info.

Treatment for dry/ irritated skin around the eyes

Apply a layer of balm around eye area, leave on for 15-20 minutes and then gently wipe off excess, if any left. Dry skin will drink this up quickly. This hydrates and strenghtens the skin and can also procvide relief for dry/ itchy hayfever eyes.

Primer for eye make-up

Apply a small amount to the eye lid before applying eye make-up

Zinc and skin renewal

To help boost the wrinkle removal rate, take a zinc supplement in the evening when using the eye balm. Zinc is a mineral that can assist with skin renewal.

What zinc supplement to take?

Choose one containing approximately 20-25mg of zinc. Take only 2-3 per week.

*Moderate use of zinc is recommended - If taking zinc daily for more than a few weeks the skin renewing process may be hindered*

Lip Balm

* Soothe * Nourish * Replenish *
