This award-winning, natural balm is a true multitasker — and here’s why it's a must-have in your skincare arsenal.
What Is Balmonds Skin Salvation?
Balmonds Skin Salvation is a 100% natural barrier balm specially formulated to soothe and protect fragile, itchy or inflamed skin. Dermatologically tested on atopic skin, it supports the skin’s natural barrier and helps reduce water loss while shielding you from external irritants.
It’s paediatrician-approved and gentle enough to use on babies from six weeks old, yet powerful enough to be applied during flare-ups of eczema and psoriasis. I have been using it on my hands and cuticles, my lips, around my nose and even on my ears, the cold weather snap we are currently experiencing really does dry your skin out with the return of central heating.
Key Ingredients & Their Skin Benefits
One of the standout features of Skin Salvation is its clean, gentle and effective formula. Key ingredients include:
- Olive oil (Olea Europaea) – deeply nourishing and hydrating
- Beeswax (Cera Alba) – creates a natural protective moisture barrier
- Safflower seed oil (Carthamus Tinctorius) – softens and conditions the skin
- Hemp seed oil (Cannabis Sativa) – rich in essential fatty acids that help support the skin barrier
- Botanical extracts, including calendula, chamomile, chickweed and nettle, which help soothe and calm irritated skin
All ingredients are natural, and many are organic, making this balm a gentle choice for sensitive skin types.
What Can You Use It For?
Skin Salvation is incredibly versatile, making it ideal for:
- Daily moisturising for dry or eczema-prone skin
- Calming flare-ups with a thick application
- Use anywhere on the body — including face, hands, eyelids and nappy area
- Overnight intensive treatment, with or without wraps
- Soothing cracked heels, irritated hands, tattoos, or even acting as a barrier during hay fever season
Why People Love It
Users consistently praise Skin Salvation for its effectiveness and comfort:
- Does not sting on application
- Helps reduce itchiness associated with dry or irritated skin
- Improves the overall appearance and condition of the skin
- Highly rated across customer review platforms, with many calling it “life-changing” for eczema or severely dry skin
Many users rely on it as a staple within their family skincare routines. It has fit into my routine as easily as any other skincare products, the silver lining with this Skin Salvation balm is that it is packaged inside a handy on-the-go tin, so it fits into your handbag without adding excess weight.
How to Use Skin Salvation Effectively
- Patch test first — Always test a small amount on sensitive areas before full use.
- Apply to clean skin using clean hands or a spatula.
- Use generously — Layer throughout the day or apply a thick layer overnight.
- Boost overnight hydration with cotton gloves, socks or soft wraps.
- Avoid direct sun exposure immediately after use — the balm is oil-based with no SPF.
- Warm product if needed — as the balm can firm up in colder weather due to its beeswax content.
Things to Consider
The balm is not vegan because it contains beeswax. As a natural product, colour and texture may vary slightly between batches.
Balmonds offers a money-back guarantee for first-time buyers, which is reassuring if trying the product for the first time.
As with any skincare product, discontinue use if irritation occurs and seek clinical advice for persistent skin concerns.
