One balm to cleanse, remove make-up and moisturise

Beauty Balm is our award-winning, do-it-all face balm. Massage it in to melt away make-up (even waterproof mascara), sunscreen and the day's build-up, then wipe it off with a hot flannel for a gentle exfoliation. A tiny amount also works as a moisturiser and primer. It's made from undiluted organic plant oils and butters, scented with clary sage, palmarosa, rosemary and patchouli essential oils. It contains no water, so it needs no preservatives or emulsifiers.

It suits every skin type, used the right way for your skin. Choose your routine for balanced, dry, dry and sensitive or oily and blemish-prone skin. Sensitive to essential oils? Try our Unfragranced Beauty Balm.

Two formulas

Both are based on organic shea butter, babassu and jojoba oils.

  • New formula with organic beeswax: the beeswax makes it firmer and happier in warm weather, and it has added organic marshmallow root extract.
  • Original vegan formula: made with macadamia oil instead of beeswax, and whipped. If it melts, it loses its whipped texture but works just the same.

Free from

  • Preservatives
  • Emulsifiers
  • Colourants
  • Synthetic fragrance
  • All artificial chemicals

Goes well with

After cleansing, use Zinc and Calendula Cream on blemish-prone or irritated areas, or Calendula and Marshmallow Balm on very dry patches.

The packaging is 100% recyclable (glass jar and metal lid in a cardboard box), and we only use biodegradable postal packaging.

Ingredients
How To Use
  • To cleanse: massage a pea-sized amount into dry skin, make-up and all. Hold a hot, wrung-out flannel or muslin over your face for a few seconds, then wipe the balm away. Rinse the cloth in hot water and repeat until your skin feels clean. See the full Oil Cleansing Method.
  • How often: once in the evening. In the morning, a splash of cool water is all your skin needs. Your skin has spent the night making the natural oils that repair its barrier, so leave them where they are.
  • Oily or blemish-prone skin: finish your evening cleanse with a cool rinse to lift any last residue, then follow with a few drops of facial oil. Your oily and blemish-prone routine shows how.
  • As a moisturiser: warm a tiny amount between your fingertips and press it into your skin. If your skin feels greasy, you’ve used too much.
  • As a primer: a tiny amount under mineral foundation.
  • New to the beeswax formula? If you notice a few spots in the first weeks, use less and make sure you wipe away all the residue.

For a complete routine, see our routines for balanced skin, dry skin, dry and sensitive skin or oily and blemish-prone skin.

    My go-to skincare

    I have been using Lyonsleaf beauty balm for several years now after another natural beauty balm which I had used for years became just too expensive! I absolutely love this product and have recommended it to lots of my friends who now use it. I use it for both cleansing and moisturizing my sensitive/ mature skin, and it also makes a good lip or hand balm, and for someone heavily tattooed likem me it also makes an excellent tattoo balm from time to time!

    Smells nice, gentle

    I bought this in addition to other products that I think are more amazing, but I am pleased with this product too, its just that it didn't make any noticeable difference to my skin. It smells nice and herbal like lemon and thyme, and goes on wet skin nicely as a moisturiser with just a tiny amount. I didn't use it as a cleanser in the end as I have a breakout going on and im staying minimal, but I'm sure it is very good and wouldn't cause my skin to breakout which is always nice!

    My answer to natural and effective skin care - thank you!

    I have been using this wonderful balm for three weeks now as a hot oil cleanser and moisturiser and I am so impressed with it. Firstly, you only need one pot for two stages of your routine and you need to use so little to make a big impact. My skin looks and feels fresher, plumper, more glowy and moisturised and just better in every way. I have also been using the Soften and Rejuvenate Facial Oil at night. This is wonderful and, again, you only need a very small amount, as a little goes a very long way. The staff at Lyonsleaf HQ were sooo helpful when I went to collect my first order (I have bought more since on mail order). Their knowledge of the products was fantastic and they gave excellent advice. I don’t intend to use any other products, as I have now found my answer to natural and effective skin care. Thank you so much, Lyonsleaf.

    I won’t use anything else on my face now

    I won’t use anything else on my face now. I tried beauty balm a couple of months ago and it’s completely changed my daily routine. It sits beautifully on my skin. I have dry problematic patches on my face that my make up would cling too but after I started using the beauty balm I don’t have this issue anymore. It’s not oily at all and gives my face that natural hydrated glow.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE

    I have never used a cleansing balm before, but after a nasty case of perioral dermatitis ( I've never had this before) I thought I'd give it a go. My usual cleansing routine is a face wash which have a foaming agent in. I didn't think I'd like a balm but my skin is better than ever and I'll never go back!

    Natural Beauty Balm is a truly amazing product

    Natural Beauty Balm is a truly amazing product. It does everything you'd need for a daily routine: make-up remover (including eyes), cleanser, moisturiser (day and night) and general soothing balm for face, hands, feet, neck, irritated skin, or just anywere. It's a revolution when it comes to going away as you only need this one small pot. And you only need a tiny amount so it lasts ages. Marvellous!

    The only cleanser/moisturiser you will ever need

    Have been using the Beauty Balm now for quite some years and I wouldn’t use anything else to clean make up, including mascara, from my face. It is simply THE BEST product ever. I have extremely sensitive skin on my face and this helps me to clean thoroughly without any harshness or residue. Used as a moisturiser it’s totally brilliant and there are no nasties in it whatsoever. And one little pot goes a very long way, used daily mine lasts around a year. Absolutely brilliant,natural product.

    I have been using Lyonsleaf's Beauty Balm everyday for five years now and wouldn't be without it

    I have been using Lyonsleaf's Beauty Balm everyday for five years now and wouldn't be without it. Not only does it remove all make up including waterproof mascara with ease it it an excellent moisturiser. On camping trips when backpacking I take a couple of the little tins which lightens my load and sorts out all my skincare needs. I'm no spring chicken but still hike, backpack, wild swim and spend more time out than in so I am a bit weather beaten to say the least, however, despite this my skin is soft and supple which I think is thanks to Beauty Balm which will remain my skin care companion!

    FAQs

    How Quickly do you despatch?

    We despatch orders Monday to Friday and we always dispatch the same working day (if ordered before 12 noon) or the following working day.

    Will my skin react to Lyonsleaf Products

    Our products are all 100% natural and free from all artificial chemicals. Because they are water free we can even avoid antimicrobial preservatives and emulsifiers. For this reason it is very unusual for anyone to react to our products at all. However some people are sensitive to essential oils, so if you are super-sensitive please choose unfragranced product options. Even less common, it is possible to be allergic to calendula and other herbs, so it is always important to do a patch test. In the unlikely event that you do have an adverse reaction, you can return your product for a full refund. We also sell samples of most products so you can try before you invest in a big pot.

    Why is the pot so small?

    Lyonsleaf products are water free and contain only the finest, plant oils, butters natural waxes and mineral ingredients. Most high Street products are up to 80% water, which means you need to apply them much more liberally and frequently. You will find you only need to use Lyonsleaf products very sparingly to achive good hydration that lasts all day. Products that are rich in soothing herbs can be used more frequently to achieve the best calming effect, but they still only need to be used sparingly. So these little pots go a long way, using less packaging and less transportation resources.

    Are Lyonsleaf products vegan?

    Much of the Lyonsleaf range is vegan, but we do use organic beeswax in some products. When it came to choosing a suitable wax, we decided it would be better for the environment to choose a farming method that promotes pollinators rather than a vegetable mono-crop that causes deforestation and loss of habitat. We only use organic beeswax as organic farming standards require farmers to have high welfare standards for Bees.
