A decadent addition to your bath and body rituals, the Modern Alchemy Nourishing Balm takes its inspiration from the soothing, ancient rituals of ayurvedic healing, Chinese medicine and shamanic practices.

Sending you on a sensual, holistic journey of self-care, the formula rejuvenates the skin, body, mind and soul with a rich, delicately scented, balm-to-oil texture that nurtures, firms and enriches skin. Working to restore balance and connection, skin is enveloped in a softening, hydrating shroud of calming and fragrant ylang ylang, sandalwood and vetiver, with a harmonising addition of softening, glow-bestowing ingredients like patchouli plant-derived oils that calm and relax for balanced, healthy skin; nurturing fireweed that deeply moisturises, deflects dryness and protects against oxidative stress; and amla – a powerful antioxidant that boasts high levels of replenishing oleic acid with soothing curcumin.

Begin your ritual after bathing. Warm the balm between your palms, bringing them to your face and slowly inhaling three times – allowing the nurturing aromatic oils to ground you – before smoothing your hands in long sweeping strokes over damp skin to preserve precious moisture.

This product can be used morning or evening before you shower or bath as a balancing massage ritual and can also be applied after cleansing to seal in moisture.

A 'proof point' with a green tick means a third party has verified the accuracy of the statement whereas no green tick means that there isn't independent confirmation (yet!), but that the brand has still supplied substantiating evidence (which you can view yourself).
