Facial balms contain solid and full-bodied vegetable oils and waxes, which is why they can be thought of as extra nutritious facial oils. They can be used instead of face oil or as a fourth and final step in a serum-oil-cream moisturizing combination. Due to their composition, balms bind the nutrients of moisture products applied to the skin and help to keep even extremely dry skin moisturized. You can combine a small amount of face balm with a few drops of face oil and apply the mixture to the skin instead of using a face oil only.
