Review: September Love Lula Beauty Box

Here's what was in September's Love Lula Beauty Box

Review: Mia and Dom Soothing Skin Salve

I've been trialling a balm from Mia and Dom on my son Z's eczema. Mia and Dom are a company based in York launched by Jennifer Feltham in February 2015 when she decided to make some natural products for her son's eczema. A great story and something I would love to do myself. Their products are over 70% organic with many of them being over 98%. They contain ethically sourced ingredients and are not tested on animals.

When I first started using the balm on my son, his skin was in a bad way. Some patches of eczema had been healed nicely by a balm from another range and then he had a massive flare-up where his entire body went scaly and dry, together with red patches in the usual places, plus some more in areas where previously he hadn't had any. As this only comes in a small pot, I would have probably used it all in one go, so I chose a lotion from another brand (review coming soon) to put all over, and used this balm on the red areas.

Review: Herbfarmacy Skin Rescue Balm

I recently tried a skin rescue balm from Herbfarmacy. They are a UK company based in Herefordshire who have a five acre farm where they grow their organic plants and herbs.

This award-winning 100% organic balm is lemon-coloured with a herby smell. It isn't vegan as it contains beeswax. I used it on a patch of eczema on my leg that was almost healed from using another balm and a new patch that had flared up on my chest.
