Review on 🌹 Banyan Botanicals Beauty Balm with Shatavari & Rose Geranium - USDA Certified Organic, 4 oz - Moisturizing & Softening Skin by Kelley Perkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wonderful beauty balm

I just LOVE this balm. The scent of rose geranium is lovely and soothing. I read some reviews that it's uncomfortable. I think it's safe to assume that some are unfamiliar with the natural taste of ghee, which may be unusual for those unfamiliar and may require some adjustment. Basically, it smells like milk, just a little more intense. Once you become familiar with the smell of ghee, it will normalize. I bought this product for its natural benefits. Ghee is deeply hydrating - a little goes the LONG way. I only apply 3 dots - one on my forehead and two on my cheeks and they cover my entire face and neck beautifully. The dime size will be too big as the leather will only absorb the amount it needs. Originally I was going to use it as a night cream, but now I use it during the day as well. It also looks like a general store. Although I use a separate brand of eye cream. I stop using it and concentrate the balm on my eyes while massaging it. sensitive skin. My skincare routine consists of 1) Washing my face with oatmeal in the morning 2) Exfoliating with a face scrub (store bought or homemade recipe of an Ayurvedic blend) 3-4 times a week to remove makeup and oil residue. I also find that the balm absorbs best after the scrub. 3) Wipe your face with rose water using a cotton pad (also take extra care wiping your eyelids - I wear contacts and am prone to stye from time to time). Rose water is great for removing mascara and oil residue. I've found that styes form when I'm not using rose water to refresh my eyes, which reminds me that I've been slowing down my rose water cleanse. ears ears. Wipe my armpits before applying my crystal deodorant and spritz my hair after washing. 4) Gently massage the beauty balm onto my face and apply a very small amount into the nostrils and around the eardrum. Don't use separate eye cream or day cream anymore. And then I start my makeup. I am a 38 year old black woman who has been in the wellness industry for over 10 years. Early in my career I volunteered whenever a beautician needed a face to try on a new product. Unfortunately, one of these remedies burned my face and caused my face to feel monstrous. I'm grateful that the only visual effect that remains is the discoloration of the skin around the eyes, which looks a bit darker. I'm also consistently praised for the elasticity and clarity of my skin. Partly because of genetics, but also because of my natural skin care routine. I am grateful to companies like Banyan who stay true to their brand and philosophy. Question: I read that ghee also contains lactic acid. It is true? If so, then I think it's an added benefit. Will Banyan create a skincare line that also includes an ubtan scrub and/or facial cleansing balm?
