An absolute allrounder and NEED.
5This instantly became a staple in my routine/beauty box/shelf. I can see myself in years to come thrusting it onto people for any skin related issue. I'm a massive fan of Farmacy Honey Skin Saviour and this is like it's more chilled out older sister. It's a lot thinner in consistency but applied onto and sinks into the skin like a dream. I'm just off the back of having a really reactive skin period, Honey Saviour quite literally saved my skin but where I didn't need the added hydration about 5 times a day that I had to apply it, I started to break out from product build-up, this is where Green Balm comes in. It smells wonderful and its all-round personality is extremely attractive. I panicked a little when I saw it could be used as a cleanser but I can assure you that it doesn't feel like you apply a cleanser and leaving it on. I would say go for it and buy the big size, but I will admit the baby size is brilliant to have for in your handbag or travelling!

Not a good cleansing balm, but works for razer rash
3I originally bought this to try it as a cleansing balm as it does advertise it as a potential use. I would not recommend it for that, especially if you have oily skin as it is very thick and hard to remove with a flannel. However, determined not to waste my money and the product, I experimented with it and found it makes a really good post-shave balm if you struggle with razor rash like I do. Not the worst, but not the best product I've tried. It does smell amazing though.

Magic in a jar!
5Everyone should have a jar Handy at home! This is great for everything! I use it as a moisturizer, especially on dry or itchy patches, for stretch marks, for bug bites, scratches and scrapes, dry lips, BEST MAKEUP REMOVER, for minor burns, mini facial at home with the face cloth... on my baby: when she scratches herself, if she gets dry spots, on hives. My husband uses it as after shave. I’ve probably finished over 10 jars.

Fantastic product
5I suffer from eczema, particularly behind my ears, as well as irritable, sensitive skin on my face. Using this each night in small doses has worked wonders. It is oily when used, but very little is needed. Now a must-have in my bathroom cabinet.

great product, awful jar
4I really love this product - I get eczema at the corner of my eyes and it's the only thing aside from steroids that seems to soothe it. It's really nice as a lip balm, too, and when my nose was sore from hayfever I used it on that as well. But the green jar is terrible - the colour is always flaking off in green plasticky bits, and sometimes manages to get into the product. In fact I complained about the first jar I got and was sent a replacement, but the same thing happens. I will buy it again, but I think I'll need to get a jar to decant it into!

NOT a cleansing balm
3The only reason I am giving this three stars is because even though this is put on the search as a cleansing balm I really would not recommend as such. It leaves the skin with a film and slimy (from the coconut oil I am guessing). However this product has redeeming qualities. I used this for some midge bites and it work really well to soothe the itch. I am sure there are other uses I can find for this product. I just definitely would not recommend it as a facial cleanings balm. For context, I have combo to dry skin and the majority of my problem areas are on my chin.

Just ok
2I'm yet to find a real use for this. Bought it originally in the hope that it could be my oil cleanser but realised it was mostly coconut oil so was no good for my face. Tried it as a lip balm but it didn't do much. Tried it on cuts and grazes, didn't really make any difference to healing time and didn't really soothe it. Didn't do much on insect bites either. I wouldn't repurchase.

Ineffable
5I have used this balm on spots, bites, bruises, scars, piercing infections, and pretty much EVERYTHING. It lasts forever and it works miracles overnight!!!

Not good for summer!
3I ordered this balm in the small size so I could keep it in my handbag for applying to my sore patches of psoriasis, and any additional dryness I suffer like lips/elbows/knees etc. It's a reeeeeallly melty balm, I had it in my bag for one day in 24 degree heat and it melted (little facepalm on my behalf there, my own silly fault!) So I would just caution anyone to perhaps keep it in the fridge during the summer months! As for it's effectiveness, I don't find it particularly moisturising as a lip balm, but it has definitely soothed the dry itchy patches of skin. Probably wouldn't buy again as there are other products I prefer.

Best ever cleanser!
5I’ve been using this for a couple of years now and it’s wonderful! I have quite dry and dehydrated skin, and this doesn’t dry my skin at all. Often I just use this, wipe it off with a tissue and leave my skin with nothing else all night. It’s gentle and nourishing.....and also a very fair price! I’m a definite fan!
