Cleansing balms and more!

Busy week here at Under the Peach Tree. We have been asked to create a cleansing balm for the face - which is perfect seeing as we've just received lots of nourishing carrier oils for the face including rosehip, camellia and coconut oil. We've also ordered some organic muslin squares to use with the balms in case customers don't already have them. These cleansing balms seem to be all the rage at the moment. They are a wonderful simple cleansing method using nourishing oils and beeswax to feed and moisturise the skin whilst the muslin cloth does the natural exfoliating - so simple, yet fantastically effective! No mineral oils, no parabens, no artificial fragrances - just simple natural oils.

Whilst we are on the balm theme, we plan to blend more of our ever popular calendula soothing balm which is a big hit for baby bottoms. We also plan a cough & cold balm with eucalyptus to rub on chests during the winter season. Maybe also an aftershave balm with frankincense, sandalwood & coriander.

Will post photos once the blending is complete!
