Neal's Yard Remedies Wild Rosehip Beauty Balm, 50g

The first thing you notice once you lift the lid is the gorgeous scent. Very strong but beautiful if you like rose and lavender. It is reminiscent of a luxury spa treatment. The balm itself is a solid dull yellow but which melts easily under the slightest pressure of your finger. I find that I need to use only very little at a time - seriously just a little dab for each cheek and another for my forehead and chin. It is easy to massage in - and yes of course it is a little greasy yet it doesn't feel uncomfortably greasy. I dislike the greasy feel of some creams and lotions but this one felt as if it was going to simply bathe and mosturise your skin luxuriously. I must be honest and haven't actually felt the benefit of its exfoliating prowess with the little muslin cloth - it does a good job as a cleanser sure, but am not convinced that that's the best use of this balm, especially at its price point. I use it as an overnight mask - that is where I feel it scores as a true wonder balm. It is not cheap but yet again, it is good value firstly because I don't think you need very much for each use and secondly, it does a wonderful job of keeping your skin mosturised and supple. I am in my middle age and am beginning to feel the effects of age - sigh - dryer skin etc even though I have combination skin. This balm feels right - and indeed, in the morning I have this really dewy and glowing skin in the morning. I bought it at a heavily discounted price which was still expensive - if not, to be honest I would have baulked at buying at full price. I will buy again - not at the full price admittedly - but certainly again at a lower price point.

This is really good. A little goes a long way and it smells amazing. I use it every night as a facial wash. The small crystals and muslin cloth mean all make up and dead skin cells are removed and the oil protects my skin while doing it - it does stain the cloth yellow. So do not be alarmed. I have really sensitive skin and was looking for a natural product suitable for older skin. This product was recommended by a friend so I thought I'd try it and haven't looked back. I follow up with Kehl's avocado eye cream and fuushi pure carrot oil or vitamin e oil (also great products). I get a lot of lovely compliments now on how good my skin looks and the texture is beautifully smooth and soft. Not tried it as any other the other uses yet like a mask but I imagine it would work well.

Lovely product! It’s almost like a magic potion that gets to work straight away. Initially it feels slightly oily to the touch but soon soaks in. My skin was originally quite sore and dry but has been transformed & I would definitely recommend to any age group. Well worth the money and lasts for ages. It also smells really lovely!

I am a great Neal's Yard fan but for years dithered over buying this particular product, that it's use is both a cleanser &/or a moisturiser left me feeling a bit sceptical. Eventually took a chance & I am addicted, I love it & as a self confessed lazy person when it comes to religiously indulging in the routine of creams & powders etc., my face has never been so pampered & nourished! I can't quite put my finger on why it is I'm so hooked on it, be it the smell or the texture as commented on by other customers, but from day #1, this little pot lives on my bedside table & if I don't sweep my face with the balm & muslin cloth provided when I first wake or before I turn off the light at night, there's something just not right! ha-ha!!

Really lovely texture

Put simply, I can't live without this. Better than Estée Lauder 8 Hour range (in my opinion).

I’m a neals yard fan through and through. This product is just completely perfect if you have dry skin. Lather it on at night and the next day your skin is soft and glowing! It smells beautiful too and it’s good to know that it’s 99% organic!

Repeat purchase. Divine rose scent. Soft, beneficial skin balm. A little goes a long way. I use it as a moisturiser. Rose scent is uplifting and calming. Not full of nasty chemicals like a lot of other creams.

Smelt rancid, label was off, probably heat exposed. Just not worth it.

Light and natural scent. Goes on smooth. I've gotten compliments on my skin since I started using this lovely Beauty balm. I usually use it at night.

Very rich night cream too oily though. Strong rose smell

The best product, I use it as ackeanset and moisturizer.

Have been using this for years. Great for makeup removal.
