This new collection of body care products from Neal’s Yard caught my eye as I feel like I’m definitely in need of a little dose of women’s balance. I’m currently in what I’ve heard called the ‘fourth trimester’ – aka the period of time post party where you’re adjusting to new baby life alongside recovering from the physical onslaught of everything that comes with growing and giving birth to a baby. All of which is a bit of a rollercoaster to say the least. Hormone wise, body wise and just getting used to the overhaul of your day to day.
The range is designed as a combination of body care and overall wellbeing combining the benefits of the Neal’s Yard Women’s Balance aromatherapy blend into a range of products. Taking the understanding that women’s bodies (and minds) are a bit of an ever changing journey and so the addition of the products can help bring a bit of balance and perhaps stability to day to day whilst giving your skin and body a little extra TLC.
The products in the range include:
- WOMEN’S BALANCE SHOWER OIL, £19.50 | 200ml
- WOMEN’S BALANCE BODY CREAM, £30 | 200g
- WOMEN’S BALANCE FOAMING BATH, £15 | 200ml
- WOMEN’S BALANCE MASSAGE OIL, £14 | 100ml
- WOMEN’S BALANCE BATH SALTS, £15 | 350g
Each bringing the aromatherapy element of the blend. The shower oil and the bath salts are my favourites. I’ve loved being able to have a bath again after a few weeks recovery after my delivery. The texture of the body cream is delicious too – rich but not too heavy. Absorbs in beautifully and leaves skin soft, with a sheen but not greasy.
I would guess one thing to mention is the fragrance, for anyone who isn’t familiar with the women’s balance blend the key oils are patchouli, geranium, rose and frankincense. All together it is quite a heady mix of aromas. The rose comes through giving a bit of a familiar feminine note. They do all work together so well and there is something really grounding about taking a big old deep breath of the bath salts especially. I love how the bathroom fills with the fragrance of it – so there’s a bit of a lingering scent beyond the bath (or more like a hurried wash which is more the case these days).
I’m really enjoying the products from this new collection and love that you can pick and choose the different elements depending on what you can fit into your own routine. As I said before, my top picks are the shower oil and bath salts!
Prices start from £14 and available from Neals Yard Remedies
