Have you got a Balmonds story to tell?
We’ll send you a £20 voucher to spend on Balmonds products if we use your pictures,and £200 in cash if your story is printed in the national press!*
What do we want?
We know how important it is for people desperately searching for solutions to hear from others who’ve been there, done that - in fact, it can be life-changing to read their stories and learn about products which could end up making all the difference to you or your family’s skin.
So we’re asking our customers who’ve had transformational effects with any of our products to let us know, so we can share the news far and wide!
If you’re just starting out with Balmonds, track your progress by taking photos before you first use the products, and regularly for a couple of weeks afterwards. Fill in the form below and attach your photos.
We will send you a voucher for £20 to use on our website for any pictures we use on social or in marketing materials. If your photos are dramatic enough to be placed in the national press and you’re interviewed by a journalist for a story, we will thank you for your time with £200!
Tips for taking progress photos:
- Send us nice clear images, as hi-res as possible
- Take the photos in good light
- Bring your authentic self - you don't need filters to shine!
- Try to snap any progress pics in as similar a way as possible to your original photo, especially in terms of similar light and position.

“It means so much to me to see real skin represented because all you see in the media is perfect, blemish, wrinkle free skin, as if we should all strive for perfection and are somehow less worthy if we can’t achieve that.”
Jen
@jenslifestyleedit
“Representation means everything to me. Growing up I used to think it was just me going through it, so the fact that real skin is represented now is such a beautiful thing.”
“My favourite Balmonds? The Omega-Rich Cleansing Oil because it feels so silky smooth when I cleanse my face, and the Rosehip Scar Oil because it helps fade my hyperpigmentation!”
Beth & Albie
@bee.thebrave
“It warms my heart to know many people will be able to relate and feel seen, which is exactly what we’ve always deserved!”
“My favourite Balmonds product for both Albie and I is Skin Salvation. It provides instant relief to intensely dry skin, skin-on-skin friction, and so much more!”
Latishia & Kaizen
@blacktokkyo
“It means the world to see a brand casting real people with real skin conditions, which is helping to change lives.”
“I love Balmonds Skin Salvation because it smells great and feels amazing on the skin.”
Virali
@therealvirali
“Each time we embrace, support, and flaunt unedited skin, we challenge the perception of beauty, this unattainable beauty standard. I wish I could have seen real skin - especially South Asian skin, growing up - to feel accepted no matter what we look like is a feeling like no other.”
“I carry Skin Salvation everywhere I go, I genuinely don’t think I could live without it.”
Ellen
@elledujour
“I think it's incredible to see real skin! To see it celebrated like this gives such an affirming feeling!”
“My favourite Balmonds product is definitely the Skin Salvation! I love how protected my skin feels when wearing it.”
Lowri
@lifeoflowri
“Representation means the absolute world. Growing up I was embarrassed about my skin when it was angry or flared up - I want to give little Lowri a big hug and say it’s ok, you’re not alone.”
“My favourite is the obvious one - Skin Salvation. This is the product which helped me out when I was having the most intense and life changing flare up I’ve had in my adult life.”
Katie
@mackies_moments
“For me representation means EMPOWERMENT of yourself and others. It means seeing and instantly feeling a huge overwhelming sense of BELONGING. It means being inspired and then inspiring others yourself, simply for showing your real skin.”
“My ride or die is definitely Rosehip Scar Oil. No matter what stage my skin is at, it's always super hydrating and gentle.”
Bianca
@Biancahoneybeex
“To see real skin represented is recognising the different types of beauty there is in the world. If I saw someone with keloids when I was younger, I would have felt more accepted. Now I am the one who’s representing my keloid scars for everyone who suffers with them.”
“I have two favourites, Skin Salvation & Rosehip Scar Oil: they’ll always be my go-to for moisturising my skin and keloids! I love how I can use the rosehip oil when my keloids are sore or inflamed and I love how versatile Skin Salvation is.”
