What is waterless skincare? Lets take a look at skin balms.

An intensive balm is a specialised moisturiser for overnight use that aims to remedy extremely dry areas.

These balms create a thick layer of moisturisation and protection for dry regions like heels, knees, hands, elbows, and the face, allowing moisture to sink in overnight.

Intensive balms typically have more emollient textures than regular creams, which prevent your skin from losing moisture at night. For example, some of these balms might include moisturising agents like shea butter, cocoa butter, or plant oils to deeply hydrate and soften the skin.

They may also contain antioxidants, vitamins, and botanical extracts to provide anti-ageing benefits, promote skin renewal, and protect against environmental damage.

Overall, our waterless balms should give your skin an added boost of nourishment and moisture at night when your skin's natural repair processes are more active.

Before and After Heel treatment

Waterless skin balms are formulated to be a genuine multi-tasking product - ideal for healing heel fissures and extremly dry skin. They are also intensely hydrating for elbows and knees, and a marvel for nourishing sore and worn skin on your hands.

Our Peppermint Foot Balm is super nourishing and is great for cracked heels and dry skin on your feet. A nourishing thick balm sinks into the skin beautifully and helps retain moisture while leaving your skin non-greasy.

Suitable for all sensitive and dry skin types.


Key Ingredients:

  • Calendula Oil

  • Meadowfoam Seed Oil

  • Cocoa Butter

  • Beeswax

  • Pure Essential Oils

If you pay attention to your foot care and regularly moisturise with a balm and oil-based moisturiser, you will likely not experience cracked heels and fissures.


To prevent painful, cracked heels, eliminate risk factors by drinking plenty of water and avoiding scalding showers. With a good foot cream or balm and some foot pampering, you'll get your feet looking lovely in a short time.

The essential ingredient in our balm is Meadowfoam seed oil (Limnanthes Alba). This beautiful oil is prized for its oxidative stability and excellent moisturising and rejuvenating properties, making it a powerful ingredient in skincare products.
