Once I examined the ingredients of this balm I realized that while a curious mixture of anti aging oils made up the balm, it was so easily DIY’d. I don’t have the exact recipe, I’m only estimating proportions since I have the real deal to examine. This expensive balm is price for a reason-it is full of legit anti aging oils like Rosehip Seed Oil, Borage Oil, Jojoba, and Hemp Seed Oils. Not to mention a mixture of 5 essential oils. I figure that while the upfront cost of making this balm could be hefty-Christmas is around the corner and this is a luxurious, yet easy DIY friends and family would really love. Great skin starts with great ingredients, and that’s where this month’s Beauty Glow Down Edit Haul of Fame comes in – a certified one-pot wonder, this multitasking Wild Rose Beauty Balm from Neal’s Yard Remedies works hard to feed your skin and uncover your natural glow. JOJOBA OIL: Re gulates sebum production because it’s so similar to the sebum that your body produces naturally. Soothes and moisturises skin, as well as keeping it from looking oily and helps prevent acne caused by clogged pores. HEMP SEED OIL: Ideal for all skin types, this oil moisturises without clogging the pores. It balances oily skin (which leads to acne) by regulating oil production. Intensive nourishing treatment: Apply the balm to freshly cleansed, dry skin. Leave on for 30 minutes, then remove with a hand-hot damp muslin cloth. Alternatively, leave on overnight for an extra nourishing boost.
