Balm Babes – Dry skin edition

Dry, reactive, sore, or just plain fed up skin?
Meet the Balm Babes 🕯️
Each of these balms was made for skin that needs support, not punishment.
🍯 Honey Hush — gentle moisture and barrier care for very dry or compromised skin.
🌸 Coven Kiss — soft, calming comfort when skin feels sensitive or overstimulated.
🔥 Tough Love — supportive warmth and protection for cracked hands, knuckles, and hard-working skin.
All of our balms are beeswax-heavy, which means they don’t just moisturise — they shield.
Perfect for winter weather, chronic dryness, and bodies that need a little extra care.
Handmade, small-batch, queer-crafted — for tender bodies and real life.
