Botanical Balms
Balm to your senses
What are Multi-purpose
Botanical Balms
With the right ingredients, a beautiful fragrance can do more than just smell good.
With a base of Fairtrade Shea Butter and vanilla-infused Jojoba Oil, the skin gets a moisturising treat before you even get to the fragrance.
To this moisturising base, I’ve added a few precious drops of the range of functional fragrances I’ve created to delight all your senses.
Just gently warm a small amount between your fingertips, then rub it into your pulse points to surround yourself with aroma and lift your mood.

Some of my clients told me how much they loved the balm before I added anything else to it,
If you prefer the natural, earthy scent of shea and the comforting aroma of vanilla-infused jojoba oil, then the natural balm is your perfect choice. It has the same nourishing and protective qualities as the other scented versions without the added essential oils and Co2 extracts. Suitable as an all-purpose balm that can be multi-functional and easy to take with you anywhere you go.

Add a mini cosmetic spatula
I always prefer to use a spatula with a product like balms to avoid cross-contamination. The Botanical Balm is preservative-free, so it’s ideal for helping stop dirt, bacteria and other undesirable things from getting into it.
In the interest of sustainability, I don’t include one with each pack. The ones I’ve sourced are a bit more substantial, not to mention more beautiful, than the throwaway ones you see in many beauty products.
Choose from Rose Gold, Silver or Gold.
