Description

Kari Gran's Essential Balm keeps things simple by doing "more with less". Part face balm, part eye cream, part primer, the ingredient list on this do-everything formula reads like a "Who's Who" in Superpower Ingredients, featuring organic green tea seed, avocado, rosehip, calendula and jasmine. Unlike a traditional melt-and-pour balm, this daily essential has a butter-cream texture and loads of slip, meaning a little goes a long way.

HOW TO USE IT

Blend with your mineral makeup for daytime dewiness, or layer a serum over the balm in the evening to seal in moisture. A true multi-tasker, Essential Balm melts into any routine.

ABOUT THIS BRAND

What started out as a hobby making luxury lip balms in her kitchen turned into a luxury makeup and skincare line in 2011, after Kari was diagnosed with an autoimmune thyroid disorder. With a newfound clarity of purpose, Kari synched up with her longtime friend and business partner, Lisa Strain to launch a no-nonsense, pure and functional skincare and makeup line using only organic, wildharvested and non-GMO ingredients. Universally anhydrous, each product in the tightly edited system is formulated without water, fillers or synthetic preservatives and is designed to multi-task to reduce clutter and promote simplicity.

Consisting of 5 skincare formulas, Kari Gran is slow beauty that promotes simplicity rather than catering to marketing cycles. Affectionately referred to as ‘The Little Black Dress’ of eco-skincare, Kari Gran makeup invites us to ‘wear our skin’ with the same ease, comfort and grace as our favorite LBD.
