So happy!

Highly recommend this fantastic product! My rosacea has calmed down, and the redness has diminished! Totally love the cream, easy to use and smells great!

The balm is fantastic 5 stars, it’s really helping to clear up my eczema. I love that’s it’s an all natural product & I can see & feel that my skin barrier is healing & the itching has drastically reduced. I’ve been using it for a good few months & will definitely be buying more when needed. The only downside is the customer service hence why I’ve given it 4 stars. I’ve emailed the company a few times & never heard anything back.

Esoteric balm

So far so good, it is helping to calm down my Roecea. Much better than other products I have tried.

great

its great but i smell like a beef dinner, so can only wear it when i am alone !
skin feels really good!

Terrific Esoteric Balm

I received the Esoteric Balm almost three weeks ago. I have been using it every day, and the difference it has made to my skin is remarkable. I suffer from acne flare ups and dry skin. Literally after the first day of applying the Balm, the red dry skin areas were soothed , and within a few days, there was a noticeable reduction in acne.The Balm absorbs quickly into the skin, and really does soften and soothe. It's not greasy, and has a very subtle scent.

Works well for Rosecea

Finally after five years it’s gone!! No more red spotty skin. Ty!!!!

Work in progress

Painful and disfiguring rosacea/ acne , post menopause. Trying this vastly simplified routine . Acne treatment aggravate the rosacea, in the past . This is very soothing and smoothing the skin , but still have spot outbreaks. I’m going to attempt patience and persevere. Advice to avoid make up ,- impossible, when you look like a battered tomato. Don’t scare the horses !

Unfortunately for me it’s not the miracle cure

I have used this balm now for several weeks, and initially was reluctant to post a review as my experience is not the most positive.
I have tried numerous products to relieve my rosacea, and non seem to work other than very strong prescription medicine, which I am reluctant to use indefinitely. I was hoping this would be my go to product, but unfortunately it has not really helped my condition, other than reduce a little of the ‘tightness’ of the skin on my cheeks. I will continue to use it until it’s finished, although this is more in desperation than hope. I’m sure it helps a lot of people, probably the vast majority who use it, but unfortunately it is not working for me.

Rosacea

Have noticed difference to my skin the redness is almost gone and my skin is getting smoother, would recommend

Face Balm

I’m only new to this but at times I look at my face and I think something is working. It’s not made it any worse and I will continue to keep applying it.

I have had Roseca for about a year I was disappointed when the Dr told me but was blown away by one of your videos which led to my purchase. I’m seeing something at times with my face and I will continue to use. Joe B

Not working for me

Been using this for a month and no improvements. I also don't like how greasy it makes my skin when I 1st apply

Absolutely brilliant

I have suffered with poor skin since I was a child, stress, allergies, foods and toxins affect my skin. I try my hardest to monitor what goes In my body to prevent this. But sometimes it just happens and I break out in redness soreness and itchiness. But since I started using this it’s changed my life so far absolutely love it. Soothes my skin so well and takes away the redness leaving me not embarrassed anymore. Thankyou so much for all your hard work in making this product possible. Can’t thankyou enough

Mostly enjoying it- intrigued for longer use and it’s effects

I love that the ingredients are all natural and familiar to me. My skin is certainly moisturised. I do find the cream sits on my skin and is quite greasy/tacky for a couple of hours even when I use a small amount. I haven’t yet noticed an improvement with my rosacea but hoping with longer use it will. I have been using for 2 weeks, morning & night. The cream will last a long time as I only need a little each application.

Awesome

Lovely balm which goes on easily and has made a huge difference immediately to my problem rosacea skin! The soothing is amazing! Feels lovely and relieving. Defo buying again.

Excellent balm

Very pleased with the results after only a few weeks.

Rosacea

Works well as a moisturiser but doesn’t seem to be doing anything for my rosacea

Red Face

It has really helped my Roceasa and my skin feels so much more hydrated even with working outdoors

The jury’s still out

I’ve been using this for nearly 3 weeks and initially it worked well as a moisturiser but after 1 week started to irritate my skin around my mouth so I didn’t apply it in that area. Although my skin now feels soft and smooth, the redness hasn’t gone away at all. I will however persist and give it a couple of months as recommended.

"You look really well" she said!

As a 46 year old woman it was rather lovely when someone unsolicited said "you look really well". Told her I've been using a new skin balm for a few days and that it had already made a difference!

Smells nice and your skin is really well moisturised (and not at all greasy throughout the whole day). Also doesn't make you look shiny either - more of a healthy matt glow if that makes sense.

I knew it was different because normally my skin feels dry and tight by the end of the day and with the Esoteric Balm it didn't at all. Same for when I wake up in the mornings. Different to use, but easy - just take a few seconds to warm it up in your palm. Well worth it for something without a load of chemicals in it that actually works and smells nice and gets you compliments. Have already reordered so I don't run out.

Very effective lol

This is an excellent product if you have been suffering from the effects of steroids like me.. definitely helps to soothe and heal the skin 🩷

Appraisal and comparison with other products after 3 weeks trial to date by an discoid eczema suf...

I assume the £6 "taxes" NOT mentioned at the initial order stage are import duty or tariff. We need to be told and shown a detailed invoice for same, ie what "taxes" specifically. Trading Standards may have a comment on this, the way it is slipped in 3/4 through the ordering process. Even the >£30 basic price is excessive. Most allopathic eczema products are around £10 for up to 500ml. Even Protopic is "only" £ about 40 for 100ml. I guess your product is of Middle Eastern origin. The source does not need to be covert.
As for its performance, your ointment so far does have a smoothing effect on skin but is no more effective than far cheaper, indeed free if NHS supplied, creams and ointments. None of these products including yours are capable of removing eczemas, all attempt to address the symptoms only.
I think your product has it's place in the weaponry to mitigate the symptoms of eczemas but on balance is neither more nor less effective than the myriad allopathic products, a bit different though. I think if you charged £10 instead of £40 for 2oz I would buy it again. As it is I shall attempt to make my own, the 3 basic materials are cheap but I know producing pure beef tallow from suet is messy and time consuming and getting a smooth ointment from the blend is a bit problematic. A.E.

Hi, there are no hidden charges slipped in at all. The £6 'taxes' you mention is VAT, and is already priced in the product cost for the consumer (you) from the beginning, not slipped in later. Delivery price is the only cost added at checkout.

The source of our product is also not hidden. We're in the UK and handmake all our balms here in the UK.

Sorry you feel our product does not meet your standards and that it's similar to cheaper (synthetic) options. If cost is the only factor you take in when making purchases we're not for you.

We handmake our product using simple, select natural ingredients and methods to not just tackle symptoms but also help heal the skin barrier (root cause for most skin issues and can take longer). Benefits of our ingredients for the skin are endless and could go on forever.

But it doesn't stop there, we also make sure our product is good for your skin and body LONG TERM. Unlike the allopathic products you mention, there are no harsh chemicals or endocrine disruptors that harm the body and skin long term.

Still, I'm glad to hear you plan on making your own, wish you the best of luck. I started out making these at home too!

Sat on the fence

I am halfway through my first pot am following instructions to just wash and then put the balm on still havnt seen much improvement in raised redness bumps but my skin is less dry getting fewer dry patches so will continue to see if my results get better

Rosecea

I've been using this for around a month after trying many others and this so far is the best. My rosecea and redness around my nose hasn't gone but it looks and feels so much better.

OMG this is a miracle

I was so stressed with the bodily lumps on my forehead, nothing from the doctors made a dent, but the Esoteric Balm was amazing, I love it, I love the way my skin feel after using it, and the hard sore boils are gone. Thank you

It just works

Takes a little getting used to at first – you need to warm it between your fingers so you can effectively spread it on the skin – but outside an exfoliant once a week, I don't use any other products on my face now. Smell is natural and not unpleasant, moisture lasts all day. Give it a go!
