At 7th Cloud Natural Skincare, our Botanical Balms are handcrafted in New Zealand using nourishing oils and infused botanicals to help comfort dry, sensitive-feeling skin and support softness, hydration and a healthy-looking skin barrier.

Our balm range includes Kawakawa, Calendula and Hemp Botanical Balms three beautiful multi-purpose balms designed for everyday use on hands, body and dry areas. They are especially lovely in cooler weather, after hand washing, or whenever skin feels rough, tight or in need of extra nourishment.
