Our products are handmade using natural ingredients; as such the product may vary in appearance from time to time but this will not affect the quality of the product.

Directions for use
As a bath oil: add about one tablespoon of oil to warm* bath water. Take care to wash the bath thoroughly after use and to use a anti-slip bath mat as calendula oil can stain and the oils can make the bath slippy.
*if your skin is prone to eczema or other dry skin conditions, it’s a good idea to avoid having really hot baths as this can make your skin extra itchy and dry.
As a body oil: apply the oil liberally to any part of the body, face or hands as often as you need to throughout the day. Balmonds Bath & Body Oil is particularly effective as an emollient when used during or after bathing: apply the oil to skin that has been patted dry but is still a little damp to lock in moisture and keep skin soft and smooth.
As a facial cleansing oil: tip a small amount of oil - about the size of a fifty pence piece – into your palm and massage it carefully into your face, very gently working it into the areas around the eyes to loosen make-up. Can be left on for a couple of minutes if needed, especially if it’s tackling thick mascara! Then remove with either a warm, wet washcloth or warm, damp cotton wool.
It can also be used as a shaving oil, an after shaving balm, or as a beautifully calming massage oil.
Balmonds Bath & Body Oil is safe for use on babies (from six weeks) and children. It can be safely used on any area of the body, including your face, hands and feet.
Keep in a cool dark place. For external use only.
