The Elemental Shield The Experience A weightless butter-to-oil balm built for the elements. Equinox was developed to withstand the biting cold of a Canadian winter and the heat of a long day in the sun, delivering a healthy, radiant shine without the heaviness of traditional balms. The scent is deeply grounding and earthy, with notes of Carrot Seed, Thyme, and Lavender that feel like a breath of fresh mountain air. The Results The Environmental Guard: Creates a breathable, protective layer that shields skin from windburn, dry indoor air, and temperature shifts. Post-Shave & Post-Sun Recovery: Naturally anti-inflammatory botanicals like Thyme and Chamomile instantly soothe irritated skin. The Perfect Glide: Provides a unique slip that makes it an ideal medium for Gua Sha or facial massage, allowing tools to move effortlessly without pulling the skin. Mineral Makeup Magnet: Creates a smooth, conditioned canvas that allows powder foundations to melt into the skin for a glowing finish. The Intention Formulated for the outdoorsy, the dry-climate dweller, and anyone who simply wants more moisture and glow. The goal was a reliable layer of protection against the elements, light enough to act as an effective primer yet rich enough to serve as a standalone moisturizer, designed to lock in hydration and keep the skin resilient regardless of the weather. Skin Type: All skin types (Essential for dry or high-altitude climates)Concerns: Dehydration, environmental stress, redness, and razor burnTexture: Non-greasy Butter-to-Oil, Silky, RadiantSize: 60 g / 2 oz Key Ingredients Cupuaçu & Murumuru Butters: Amazonian superfruit butters that provide a velvety, skin-softening texture that sinks in deep without heaviness. Carrot Seed & Thyme: Earthy botanicals that support skin resilience and provide a clean, grounding scent. Baobab & Camellia Oil: Lightweight oils rich in Omega fatty acids that nourish the barrier while maintaining a matte-to-the-touch feel. Candelilla Wax: A vegan plant wax that locks in moisture and protects against water loss in arid environments. How To Use & Storage Warm a small amount between your fingertips and massage into the skin. Use as your final step at night to lock in treatments, or in the morning as a protective primer. For Gua Sha, apply a slightly more generous amount to facilitate a smooth, effortless glide. Longevity & StorageThis highly concentrated balm lasts 4 months with daily use. Always use clean fingers or a spatula, close the lid tightly, and store in a cool place. Pro Tips ◆ Warm the balm in your fingers first so it spreads easily and doesn't tug the skin when applying.◆ On extra dry patches, you can use the balm a little more liberally or as a "spot-treatment" layer.
