The Story Behind the Brand

Balmonds was created by a Natalie Balmonds – mother in search of a cream that would help her daughter’s very dry and itchy skin. Natalie had tried many different creams prescribed by doctors and dermatologists, but they stung and irritated her even more. This led to her experimenting with cooking traditional ointments and salves in her kitchen. Natalie used combinations of herbs and oils to create the skincare that would work just right for daughter’s skin, and today we have Balmonds.

 

The Balmonds Range

I got the following Balmonds Skincare Products –

 

Daily Moisturing Cream

Intensive Hand Cream

Skin Salvation

Here are my thoughts on the skincare products –

 

PROS
  1. These products are 99%/100% natural which is great.
  2. I love the compact packaging of the products. They are easy to store and take away on a trip. The Intensive Facial Oil comes with
  3. The Intensive Facial Oil is great on my face. I love the texture of this gentle conditioning oil. It leaves my skin supple and smooth. I use it as a daily overnight treatment and I love how my facial skin is looking.
  4. The Skin Salvation intensely moisturises the skin. It is 100% natural and it keeps the skin soft, smooth and well hydrated. It can be used to sooth a variety of skin conditions, from eczema and psoriasis, to dermatitis and rosacea.
  5. I really like the Baby Balm with hemp and lavender. It is great for my children’s skin. It can also be used as a general-purpose family ointment, which is amazing. I love having multi-purpose skincare products at home.
  6. The Daily Moisturising Cream and Intensive Hand Cream are both easily absorbed cream. I love the texture of the creams a lot. They suit my skin so well.

Product Review – RMK Basic Colour Control

March 8, 2019 By in Beauty, Product Reviews Tags: , , , , , , , 20 Comments

*PR Samples.

Happy International Women’s Day to all my amazing women. Today is a day to celebrate women and everything feminine. So I decided to review some lovely makeup products I got the other day. RMK got in touch and offered to send me some makeup/beauty products to review and I was super excited to get my hands on them. I am a huge fan of Japanese products. There are definitely at the top in the beauty industry and RMK ticks all the boxes when it comes to quality makeup.

A bit about RMK

For those who have never heard of this brand before, RMK is a cosmetics line that holds firm roots within the New York make-up artistry scene and is carefully brought to life in dedicated laboratories in Japan. I was lucky enough to get RMK Basic Control Colour in Silver (01), and the Colour Crayon in Red (04) and Fig (06).

 

RMK Basic Control Colour in Silver

This Basic Control Colour by RMK enhances the skin’s natural beauty. It comes in 4 shades – Silver, Coral, Purple and Green. I got my hands on the Silver and it is meant to enhance the skin’s natural luminosity for a brighter complexion.

PROS
  1. I love the compact packaging.
  2. The creamy gel  texture of this product is great for my skin. It is easily absorbed and I definitely brightens it up.
  3. It masks all the problem areas on my face.
  4. You can use this product as a primer. It works great as a base for makeup. The makeup just glides on effortlessly and stays put.
  5. It moisturises my skin perfectly.

 

CONS

None.

I can’t fault this product at all. It is a great makeup product and I will be using it a lot. You can grab it for £28 at Selfridges, Look Fantastic and Beauty Bay.

 

 

RMK Colour Crayon in Red and Fig

RMK Colour Crayon comes in 6 shades – Red, Pink , Fig, Rose, Coral and Beige. I got my hands on the Red and Fig shade. The Red shade is the classic look while the Fig shade is more of a dark red look.

 

The Red Shade

If you know me well enough, you would know how much I love a red hippie. The shade of red is so beautiful.

None.

 

I can’t fault these RMK Lip Crayons. They are so amazing and I can already see myself using them regularly. You can grab the shades and the others for £19 each at Selfridges, Look Fantastic and Beauty Bay.
