I recently got my hands on the Nursem Ultra Caring Body Balm, and as a body care obsessive, I have to say it ticks all the boxes for me. Here is everything you need to know.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Is this balm safe for eczema flare-ups?
The product information states it is best used between flare ups, not during acute weeping / broken skin. Always patch test, and if your eczema is severe, consult a dermatologist.
Does it contain fragrance?
No, it’s unfragranced. That’s great for sensitive noses and skin.
Is it vegan & cruelty-free?
Yes, the product is labelled vegan.
How often should I use it?
Daily maintenance is recommended. After showering, or when skin tends to dry out. For very dry patches, apply two-times a day or layer overnight.
What makes this balm “filaggrin boosting”?
The formula includes ingredients like niacinamide and Mondo Grass root extract which are claimed to help stimulate natural filaggrin production. This helps support skin barrier strength.
Final Thoughts
Overall, the Nursem Ultra Caring Body Balm is a standout product in the rich balm / intensive moisturiser space. The blend of clinical actives (niacinamide, colloidal oat, allantoin etc.), combined with very nourishing butters, gives a luxurious feel and powerful hydration.
For me, someone who fake tans and has dry skin, this balm ticks almost all the boxes. If you want something that feels like skincare and pampering, and you don’t mind a richer texture, this is definitely worth the investment.
