September’s warmth has been a welcome surprise, bringing with it a renewed sense of energy and anticipation for the months ahead. As we embrace this transition, it’s the perfect time to focus on how we care for our skin. At Hawthorn Skincare, we believe in crafting more than just skincare products — we create rituals of self-care, lovingly handmade on our family farm.

As summer turns to autumn, our skin often starts to show signs of dryness, tightness, or irritation. This is where a high-quality face balm becomes indispensable. Designed to offer immediate relief and nourishment, our balms are a go-to remedy for combating the effects of brisk winds and lower temperatures, or even just for a quick refresh during busy days.

Our Face Balms, enriched with luxurious ingredients like shea butter, vitamin E, grape seed oil, and hemp seed oil, are specifically formulated to deeply nourish, hydrate, and protect the skin. These carefully selected ingredients work in harmony to restore moisture, soothe irritation, and create a protective barrier against environmental stressors. The concentrated formula melts effortlessly upon contact with your skin, delivering intense hydration and comfort, making it an ideal choice for daily moisturization, night treatments, or even as a highlighter for a natural, dewy finish. Embrace every change with a balm that truly supports your skin’s health and resilience.

A Guide to using our Face Balms

Start by washing your hands
Always wash your hands in warm soapy water before touching the skin
Cleanse your skin
Gently massage 1-2 pumps of your cleanser onto dry skin, then remove with a damp cotton cloth. Repeat if necessary.
Mist your skin
Use your facial mist by either shaking the bottle well first and spritzing on the skin or spraying two cotton pads and gently swiping over the skin.
Massage in your Face Balm
Take a pea-sized amount and warm up between the palms of your hands before gently massaging onto the face, neck + décolletage. It can be used for both day and night.

Benefits of Massage

Enhanced Absorption
Massaging helps the balm penetrate deeper, ensuring full absorption and maximizing its effectiveness in hydrating and nourishing the skin.

Improved Circulation
Massage stimulates blood flow, promoting a healthier complexion by delivering oxygen and nutrients more effectively to skin cells.

Lymphatic Drainage
Facial massage reduces puffiness by encouraging lymphatic drainage, leading to a more toned and contoured appearance.

Relaxation and Stress Relief
Gentle massaging relieves facial tension, resulting in a more relaxed expression and reducing stress-related lines.

Enhanced Skin Texture
Regular massage promotes cell turnover, improving skin texture and creating a softer, more even surface.

Boosted Collagen Production
Massage stimulates collagen production, helping maintain skin elasticity and reducing signs of aging like fine lines.

Increased Glow
Boosted circulation and gentle exfoliation during massage enhance your skin's natural glow, leaving it fresh and revitalized.

Deep Relaxation and Mindfulness
Facial massage turns skincare into a relaxing ritual, reducing stress and benefiting overall skin health.scription
