Balmonds’ journey began when Natalie Balmond’s young daughter suffered from severe eczema, and conventional treatments provided little relief. In response, she took matters into her own hands, formulating a natural balm that not only soothed her daughter’s skin, but became the cornerstone of the Balmonds brand.
Today, the Balmonds skincare line has garnered attention for its dedication to creating natural, effective, and gentle skincare solutions, particularly for those with sensitive skin.
The Philosophy Behind Balmonds
At the heart of Balmonds is a commitment to simplicity, purity, and efficacy. The brand’s philosophy revolves around using only the most natural and high-quality ingredients, avoiding synthetic additives, parabens, and artificial fragrances. Balmonds’ products are designed with sensitive skin in mind, ensuring that they are free from common irritants that can exacerbate skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis.
Ethical and Sustainable Practices
Balmonds is committed to the well-being of its customers as much as the planet. The brand prioritizes sustainable practices in its sourcing, packaging, and production processes.
Ingredients are ethically sourced, with an emphasis on organic and cruelty-free materials. Additionally, Balmonds is transparent about its supply chain, ensuring that every step aligns with its ethical values.
The brand is also mindful of its environmental impact, using recyclable packaging whenever possible and minimizing waste throughout the production process. The energy used in production comes from renewable sources, and everything is made in small batches to conserve that energy.
