Did you know that balms are very much multipurpose products? Balms typically deliver nutrients and moisture to the skin which can help heal and rejuvenate. However, they can do so much more! If you’ve ever oil cleansed or used a balm to remove mascara, you probably realized balms are versatile. But did you know you can even use a balm as a mask? Using the right ingredients, you can create a product that will cleanse, act as a daily moisturizer and even as a mask! Talk about a triple threat! So let’s make this DIY 3 in 1 Beauty Balm to cleanse, mask and moisturize!
This particular product is jam packed with anti aging ingredients. If you’re in need of repairing and renewing dry and aging skin and you’re not in to using 25.78 products on your skin daily, then this might be the perfect DIY for you! I chose all my favorite anti aging ingredients for this recipe.

- 1 TBSP. Rosehip Seed Oil (find it HERE)

How to Use:
- Cleanser-This balm makes a great oil cleanser! Not only is it extremely nourishing to wash the face with butters and oils, it also does not strip the skin of it’s natural hydration! Scoop a quarter size amount of oil into your palm and begin massaging your skin. Massage gently for up to 2 minutes. While you are massaging, turn your water on HOT. Wet a soft wash cloth with very hot water and lay the wash cloth over your skin. Press it into your skin until it cools down. Repeat the hot cloth 1-2 more times.

- Mask-Apply a thin layer of this balm to the skin and let set for 15-20 minutes to deliver a ton of moisture to parched skin. Remove with a warm towel.
- Moisturizer-Scoop a tiny amount (under a dime size) into your fingers. Warm and soften the oil by rubbing it in the palm of your hands. Gently pat the oil on your skin after toning. TIP:It’s best to leave the skin damp from the toner because the moisture will act as a vehicle for the oil to absorb more easily! A little goes a long way if you’re using this DIY as a moisturizer!
This product is easy to make and will deliver a huge amount of nourishment! I recommend it for dry and/or aging skin types. Balms can be a bit tricky for oilier skin types even though using oils on oily skin can help bring the skin in to balance. Balms are rich and contain only oil based products so this 2 ounce recipe will last a while, especially if you aren’t overly dry.
I particularly like making multipurpose balms to take on vacation. A 2 ounce jar that cleanses, moisturizes and masks is perfect when traveling! Enjoy!

I made this 3 in 1 beauty balm. I made it 2 times, and mine is as hard as a rock. Yours looks so creamy. Can you tell me what I might be doing wrong? Also, my skin is VERY dry. I have made all your serums with oils and essentials oils, and I feel like I’m fighting an uphill battle. I’ve been to 2 doctors, and they haven’t helped at all. It’s like I need to take off a layer of my face! I’m getting very frustrated. If you have ANY suggestions, I would be most appreciative! Thanking you in advance. I LOVE your website, and always look forward to any new recipes you have come up with!
I absolutely love this DIY 3 in 1 Beauty Balm recipe! The combination of nourishing oils and butters is perfect for keeping skin hydrated and rejuvenated. I appreciate how versatile it is—using it as a cleanser, mask, and moisturizer all in one is a game-changer! The benefits of rosehip and pomegranate oils are impressive, and I can’t wait to try this out, especially for my dry skin. Thank you for sharing such a fantastic and practical beauty solution.
