Despite being beauty product pros, we’ve all had our little mishaps. You know the times when we exfoliated a bit too much, went a bit mad with the vitamin A cream or mixed products that should never mix?  Then, we spend time trying to cover the result of our really-should’ve-not-done-that actions: a really red, sore patch. Instead of braving your beauty blunder, find comfort with our multi-use, skin-saving balms. No matter what your budget or blunder, there’s a balm for you.

Dermalogica Climate Control balm, £21.40, soothes skin that is peeling, raw or irritated. Perfect protection for upcoming autumn and winter, this balm shields and moisturises your face with a beautifying barrier, made up of lemon extract, shea butter, oats and lavendar. You can even use it on your lips.  Now for the organic, multi-use marvel: Móa The Green Balm, £12. 50. This balm is our go-to hero for beauty blunders.  Not only does it comfort and heal dry, fragile skin, but it also soothes rashes, mild eczema, cuts, grazes, bites, burns, nappy rash, cradle cap and more. This balm’s many-use magic comes from its key ingredient, the harsh weather-resistant Yarrow plant from Iceland. So say goodbye to the sting of beauty blunders and autumn and winter’s bitter bite with a balm!
