Disclaimer

The Baalm is an independent online magazine about balms and skincare. The content we publish — including ingredient explainers, routines and product-type guides — is provided for general informational and editorial purposes only. It is not medical advice, and it is not a substitute for consultation with a qualified doctor, dermatologist or pharmacist.

Skin is personal. An ingredient or routine that soothes one person may irritate another. We always encourage patch testing before using any new product, and we encourage you to seek professional advice if you have a skin condition, an allergy, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are caring for a child's skin. If a product causes redness, itching, swelling or discomfort, please stop using it and consult a professional.

We do our best to ensure that the information we publish is accurate and up to date at the time of writing. However, cosmetic science evolves, formulations change, and regulations differ between countries. We cannot guarantee that every detail remains correct over time, and we accept no liability for decisions made on the basis of our content.

The Baalm does not sell skincare products. Any mention of product types or ingredients is editorial in nature. If we ever publish sponsored content, it will be clearly identified as such.
