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 suits most skin. Drier skin may like a second cleanse in the morning.
  • Oily or blemish-prone skin: cleanse in the evening only, and finish with a cool rinse to lift any last residue. You may not need a moisturiser at all.
  • 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, cleanse in the evening only and make sure you wipe away all the residue.

    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.
