Miel Botanicals: Rose Balm

As you'll know I'm already a fan of East Lothian based, Miel Botanicals having recently fallen for their amazing Prosecco Shave Soap*. See my review HERE.

I bought their exquisite Rose Balm (25g - £8.50) which is simply but prettily packaged and the pot's recyclable or reusable.



The rosey scented balm has a multitude of uses - as you'll know I adore a multi-purpose product.  The range is hand made in small batches with skin loving ingredients. Oils such as golden jojoba and sweet almond are infused with organic rose petals before being hand blended with beeswax, shea butter, rosehip oil, rose absolute, rose geranium and Vitamin E.


The Rose Balm is suitable for all skin types but especially sensitive, dry/combination and mature and is cruelty-free with no animal testing. The beeswax comes from formulator and founder Karin's own beehive of happy and carefully looked after bees who forage in the orchard and wildflower meadows in East Lothian.

To use: as a cleanser: apply a small amount of balm with your fingertips to dry skin. Massage into skin with circular motions before removing with a warm muslin cloth.  As a steam cleanse: apply as a face mask and relax in a warm bath for ten minutes or lay a hot flannel/face muslin over the face for 5 minutes to gently draw impurities and grime from the pores. Remove using a warm muslin cloth. As a moisturiser: apply a small amount to any dry skin areas - eyebrows, lips, neck, decollete and cheekbones. As a hand balm: massage onto the hands paying particular attention to each nail and cuticle, For body: apply onto any dry areas such as elbows, knees and feet.  I've also used a small amount on flyaways.

Pick yours up HERE (there are now a few new products online and I couldn't resist picking a couple up!)
