In the world of natural care, simplicity, effectiveness, and comfort of use matter. That's why today I invite you to discover an exceptional DIY product – a solid balm based on jojoba butter, which impresses with its texture, ingredients, and performance.
It’s a great alternative to classic balms in bottles – more eco-friendly, economical, and incredibly long-lasting. Plus, it’s perfect to take with you on your travels 😊
A solid balm is a multifunctional cosmetic product: it’s perfect for the daily care of dry, rough, or dehydrated skin. Thanks to its high content of emollients and active ingredients, it forms a protective layer on the skin that not only retains moisture but also regenerates and soothes.
In this version, the base is jojoba butter – solid, stable, and ideal for a solid form. It is enriched with sweet almond oil, plant-based squalane, spirulina macerate, and dragon’s blood in propanediol, which provides strong antioxidant properties.
How do the ingredients work?
• Jojoba Butter – base of the formula, provides firmness and stability while deeply hydrating.
• Sweet Almond Oil – softens the skin and supports its regeneration.
• Plant-Based Squalane – provides long-lasting moisture without a greasy feeling.
• Dragon’s Blood (Sangre de Drago) – a natural antioxidant that protects the skin from oxidative stress and supports its regeneration.
• Spirulina Macerate (Algae) – rich in minerals and antioxidants, firms and nourishes the skin and fights cellulite.
• Essential Oil (optional) – gives the balm a pleasant scent and adds additional cosmetic and aromatherapeutic benefits.
Ingredients for about 100 grams of solid balm:
| Ingredient | Quantity (teaspoons) | Equivalent in ml |
|---|---|---|
| Jojoba Butter (solid) | 9½ teaspoons | approx. 47.5 ml |
