WILD ROSE | face balm
nurture, protect, and soothe
A sunny orange nourishing day balm. This is our answer to skin in need. Sometimes skin needs a little extra to soothe and protect. Our Wild Rose is formulated to take moisturizing to another level. We have a power house of antioxidants to help combat inflammation, which gives your skin the breathing room it needs in order to focus on healing and repairing itself effectively.
Our Wild Rose balm has antioxidants you can see with a vibrant orange yellow glow that absorbs quickly, leaving your skin with a sheer layer of protection, and soft skin finish. This sunny glow comes from the infused resin-rich calendula flowers and a substantial dose of precious sea buckthorn berry, calendula CO2 and rose-hip CO2. These plant allies work to speed healing, calm inflammation & soothe redness for exceptional healing magic. Use it on its own, or as an added boost to your face serum. Scented with a hint of vanilla, rose and spice from the local beeswax to create a happy and sweet scent.
**Most of our herbs are wild foraged by us here in Nova Scotia. and the rest come from local farmers or off our property here in Dartmouth. That way we know its picked at its peak growing time and ultimate environment.

RITUAL:
Each morning after toning with hydrosol, apply evenly to face and neck. You may apply Serum under day cream for added boost. Include the décolleté if desired. Our Day Balm makes an ideal base for our Dr. Hauschka make-up. Our balm will never clog pores because it contains oils that mimic our skin’s sebum.
PRO TIP:
For an added boost of protection, you can mix the Serum with Face Balm, or use our Face Balm over the top of the Serum.
Moisturize in perfect harmony when you use our Face Serum immediately after any of our Hydrosol Toners. You’ll be creating a lotion without the need for emollients as oil and water don’t blend well together. This way you create it yourself by layering, and you get to skip the toxic ingredients. Your skin wants water just as much as it needs oil, and this becomes the perfect light weight blend of hydration and moisturization , that brings out the beauty in every skin type.
