Whatever your outdoor activity or sport is, you’ll know exactly how sweat, water, friction and the weather plague your skin. Your routine may be cycling at the weekend, religiously going for a morning run or getting the sailboat out occasionally. But, you’ll all be frustrated at the annoying skin irritations outdoor sporting activity brings, from itchy, dry skin and sore skin split wounds to rashes and friction sores. And, as someone who loves the outdoors and enjoys being active outside, you don’t just want good, natural skincare that works; you want it to be super friendly to the environmental space you enjoy doing your sport and activities. And that’s where Balmy Fox delivers!
What better way to treat your delicate skin than to provide it with gorgeous natural and organic ingredients? Balmy Fox’s luscious vegan plant-based skincare is lovingly created for outdoor athletes and those who love embracing sport and activity outside. So whether you’re a professional runner, a novice surfer, or simply take pleasure in long morning walks, using skincare by Balmy Fox delivers the natural skin care remedies you need without harming you or the planet.
And utilising the advantages of the fats and acids in plant-based ingredients helps fight the frustratingly irritating dry, itchy skin active people are prone to and helps improve the skin’s elasticity simultaneously.
For example, if you suffer from excessively dry feet or hands or other areas prone to dry skin, why not try our vegan Hand & Foot Repair Cream or perhaps our Anti-Chafe Cream to help prevent and aid sore skin and rashes caused by repetitive motion?
We’re all more conscious and aware of what we put into our bodies, so it’s only natural to become more conscious of what we use on our skin. Indeed, the skin is our largest organ, absorbing everything we expose it to, so it makes sense to use natural ingredients, and what better way to do this than using plant-based ingredients?
Plant-powered skin care is free of harsh chemicals that may be damaging to your delicate skin. For example, you’ll find zero parabens, phthalates, silicones, synthetic fragrances, SLS, SLES or oxybenzone in Balmy Fox skincare. Instead, our all-natural skincare delivers the nourishment and hydration your skin needs without harmful chemicals affecting the environment around us or our skin.
In addition, plant-based ingredients contain active compounds that you won’t find in chemical formulations, along with antioxidants that are essential in restoring, balancing and strengthening the body’s cells by combating free radicals. Similarly, natural plant-based ingredients help support the skin microbiome, promote balanced moisture, and improve overall skin health. And with so much goodness overflowing, our skin is better for using what nature has provided, and we can use plant-based ingredients without concern of nasty chemicals leaching into our water system—what could be better than that?
Thankfully, you don’t need a biology degree to understand and appreciate the power of plant-based ingredients. Using plants in our skincare offers more effective, skin-friendly moisturising remedies than those produced by brands still choosing to laden formulas with chemicals that ultimately leach into our waterways, harming our fragile environment. And, if you’re still not convinced that plant-based skincare is the best option, let’s look at some of the beautiful ingredients and see just how powerful they are:
Hemp Oil – Over 75% of hemp oil contains omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids such as linoleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid, and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) that our bodies can’t produce and which play a vital role in overall skin health, including combating ageing skin. As a result, it’s a true hero oil that works to soothe and hydrate inflamed, irritated skin. And, due to its extensive levels of these fatty acids, it’s also particularly beneficial for treating inflamed skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema and acne rosacea, mainly down hemp’s high GLA content shown in studies to reduce inflammation.
Tea Tree Oil – Perhaps a more well-known ingredient is tea tree oil, a natural antiseptic used for centuries in traditional medicine.
The plant’s oil is shown to prevent and treat fungal and bacterial infections and promote healing. This versatile plant also possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, making it ideal for inflamed, sore, and split skin.
Sweet Almond Oil – Who doesn’t love an almond? They’re tasty, good for eating and great for your skin with several beneficial properties. For example, almond oil possesses antifungal and antibacterial properties and is brimming with antioxidant-rich vitamin E to fight free radicals. It’s also an excellent emollient moisturiser helping to balance moisture absorption and water loss. In addition, the oil delivers anti-inflammatory calmness, again perfect for those suffering from skin conditions such as eczema-related dermatitis.
Borage Oil – Similar to hemp oil, borage oil also contains high levels of GLA, which is shown to help maintain healthy skin by promoting cell growth and preventing inflammation. Yet another natural plant ingredient perfect for those annoying skin conditions such as psoriasis and ideal for sports athletes suffering sore skin and rashes caused by friction such as wetsuit rash.
It simply isn’t good enough for brands to deliver environmentally friendly skincare in plastic containers, and those that continue to use unecological packaging are putting profits before the planet! So, decide today to make a difference by choosing companies like Balmy Fox, who deliver their gorgeous natural plant-based skincare using recycled card and sustainable 100% recyclable packaging. And when you buy Balmy Fox, you’re also helping to support charitable schemes and causes—now, what’s not to love about that?
