Champagne skin. Beer budget. Moon tin.
The Everywhere Balm is a waterless barrier balm for face, lips, hands and the rest of you.
Fifteen ingredients. Several of them rather lovely. No water. No petroleum. No added fragrance.
Sits beside the incense holder.
Also fits in the tote.
Free AU shipping from two.
You own a ceramic you cannot describe.
You know the first name of the person who made your chair.
Your wine is cloudy on purpose.
Your coffee costs seven dollars and you have stopped noticing.
You live in Fitzroy, or Newtown, or a version of them. Thornbury, Enmore, West End, Freo, somewhere with a good bakery and an inconvenient tram.
You will never own a new Mercedes. Only a vintage one.
You have made peace with this by buying very good olive oil.
This is a balm for that.
Sixty millilitres.
Small enough for a coat pocket.
Heavy enough to feel like a decision.
A moon on the lid, faintly unimpressed.
It belongs on the shelf beside the incense holder, the matchbox from the wine bar and the coin dish you were told was an ashtray.
It will be the nicest object in the frame.
It knows.
One customer called the branding a moon-faced cherry on top.
That was Alex.
We would never.
One for the shelf. One for where you actually need it.
Free AU shipping from two.
An extremely tasteful quantity discount.
Marshmallow root. Plantain. Shea. Jojoba. Beeswax. Bisabolol. Manuka.
Fifteen ingredients in all.
Nothing added for fragrance.
Nothing there just to make the list longer.
Every ingredient has to earn the shelf space too.
Most skincare is mostly water.
Water is lovely.
It is also rather keen on leaving.
Your skin barrier helps determine how much moisture stays put. When that barrier is struggling, water escapes faster.
The Everywhere Balm contains no added water.
Instead, its lipid-rich formula helps reduce transepidermal water loss, which is the technical way of saying:
your skin holds onto more of what it already has.
Soft-matte finish.
No shine. No scent. No sticky little aftermath.
Your face stops asking for things by 3pm.
Surprisingly responsible.
One tin is $39.95 and typically lasts 3+ months.
That works out to well under fifty cents a day.
Less than the oat milk surcharge.
Considerably less than the serum with the serif logo.
And unlike the serum, it also goes on your lips, hands, cuticles, heels and whatever else has started complaining.
You are paying for a concentrated, waterless formula with ingredients like bakuchiol, squalane, jojoba, calendula and immortelle.
You are not paying for 70% water in a very unphotogenic bottle.
Expensive taste, reasonably met.
The Everywhere Balm™
Waterless barrier care for face, lips, hands and everywhere else skin has opinions.
The correct number is apparently more than one.
30-day one-tin guarantee. If she doesn't earn a permanent spot on your shelf, we refund one tin, minus shipping.
There is no ritual.
Open the tin.
Warm a little between two fingers.
Apply wherever the day has left a mark.
Close the tin.
Return it to its place beside the incense.
Nothing further is required of you.
That is the most mystical thing about it.
One product. Fewer steps.
My partner works at a pharmacy, so we get heaps of discounted skincare products, including luxury brands. Nonetheless, they keep pinching the NOOKS balm from my nightstand because it is so lush. The Everywhere Balm is a product that we both keep reaching for, and the aesthetic branding is a moon-faced cherry on top.
Firstly the packaging is beautiful (even the mailer, I can see why the thief was attracted), everything came beautifully presented and safe.
The ultimate quiet achiever. Works well, feels good, fk chemicals. The Everywhere Balm is my new staple.
Good taste appears to be contagious.
A woman in Melbourne.
Self-funded.
No parent company.
No conglomerate deciding the moon needs a focus group.
If one ever rings, we will let it go to voicemail.
MCT, shea butter, jojoba oil, calendula, beeswax, squalane, marshmallow, plantain, vitamin E, monolaurin, manuka oil, bakuchiol, bisabolol, helichrysum, sunflower.
Fifteen in all.
Buy the tin.
Put it somewhere it can be seen.
