FAQ
Can the balm be used before skincare or make-up, or should it always be the final step?
As the Calming Blue Balm has a slightly waxy texture, it is recommended to use as the final step of your skincare routine, but still before applying makeup.
Does the blue hue leave any visible residue on the skin?
The blue hue does not leave any visible residue on the skin regardless of skin tone.
Is it safe and effective for very sensitive zones such as around the nostrils?
Yes, it's created to soothe and protect dry, sensitive skin and can be used on delicate areas such as around the nostrils and lips. Patch testing is recommended for very sensitive skin.
Can it be layered over other treatments (e.g. serums or actives) without interfering with performance?
Yes. Apply Calming Blue Balm as the final step in your routine to help seal in moisture without interfering with the performance of serums or actives.
How does it perform in humid versus dry climates? Does the barrier feel different?
Yes, slightly. In dry climates it feels more comforting and protective, while in humid climates it feels lighter - in both cases supporting the skin’s barrier and balance.
Can it be used on children or babies for very dry skin patches or eczema-prone areas?
Calming Blue Balm is made with gentle, nourishing ingredients and is often used on very dry skin. However, we always recommend consulting a healthcare professional before using any product on babies or young children, especially on eczema-prone or compromised skin. Patch testing is advised.
Can I use it as a spot treatment for sudden flare-ups of irritation, or should it be used more pre-emptively?
The Calming Blue Balm is very well-suited as a spot treatment for sudden flare-ups of irritation, but can also be used for normal occurrences such as dry patches etc.
Does the balm leave any film or sheen on the skin after application, or does it absorb fully?
The product’s waxy texture can work as a sealant for the skin - so no, it doesn’t absorb fully on the skin, and it will leave a slight “film” on the skin.
