Melts on ContactSoftens Dry SkinNo HeavinessUplifting Neroli
Meet your after-shower ritual. This rich body balm melts on contact to soften dry, rough skin from head to toe.
Babassu, cupuaçu and shea nilotica soften and restore suppleness, while oat oil and vitamin E-rich apricot help lock in comfort. Neroli, mandarin and bergamot bring a bright, floral-citrus scent.
Waterless and melts on contact with no heavy residue. Perfect for dry, rough or tight-feeling skin, from shoulders to heels. Suitable for all skin types.
Unwind your mind. Linger after your bath, breathe in the neroli and take your time.
Use daily as part of your body care ritual. Warm a small amount between your hands and massage into clean, dry or damp skin. Take a moment to breathe in the uplifting aroma as the rich butters melt in — leaving your skin soft, supple and deeply comforted.

Why choose the Instant Hydration Body Balm?
This luxurious balm is crafted for the skin that needs comfort and restoration. It’s formulated with babassu oil which melts into the skin, cupuaçu butter for intense moisturisation, shea nilotica butter for lasting softness, oat oil to calm irritation, apricot oil to brighten and coconut oil to support the skin’s natural barrier. The uplifting essential oils of neroli, mandarin, bergamot, patchouli and grapefruit turn daily moisturising into a soothing ritual — a moment to pause, breathe and reconnect with yourself.
Why is it different to other body moisturisers?
Most traditional body moisturisers contain a high percentage of water, synthetic emulsifiers and preservatives — which can feel hydrating at first but often evaporate quickly, leaving the skin dry again soon after. Our Instant Hydration Body Balm is completely waterless and made only with cold-pressed, nutrient-rich plant butters and oils, meaning every ingredient actively nourishes your skin. There are no cheap, unstable oils that lose their freshness over time — just pure, concentrated goodness that melts into the skin to deliver long-lasting softness and protection.
The result is a deeply hydrating balm that leaves your skin smooth, supple and naturally radiant, with a comforting glow that lasts all day.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. The Instant Hydration Body Balm is formulated without unnecessary fillers and with ingredients that nourish, protect and calm. Whether your skin is dry, wind-exposed or freshly shaved, this balm supports comfort and softness.
Can I use it on my face?
We recommend using this balm on the body rather than the face, as it’s richer than our facial balms and may be too heavy for some skin types. While it can provide comfort to very dry or weather-exposed facial skin, it could block pores if used regularly on more delicate or combination complexions. For facial use, our Super Sensitive or Hydration Boost Balms are lighter and better suited for daily care.
How often/when should I use it?
Use daily — after showering or bathing, when skin is damp or dry — and after shaving or sun exposure for instant comfort and lasting softness. A little each day keeps your body skin feeling calm, nourished and beautifully smooth.

The oven burn on the back of my hand, which I’ve had for about fifteen years, is now healing. It’s reduced in size and there’s evidence of new skin at its periphery.

I love this body butter, it really moisturises and feels lovely on the skin.
Cathy 5/5 Verified
A lovely natural balm that feels great to apply and keeps my skin hydrated throughout the day. I used this balm on my décolletage before I got married as I has some fine lines and patchy skin from the sun and it has smoothed out this area, making it look more even in tone within a couple of days. I also suffer from some eczema on my back and in less than 1 week of using the balm these patches were gone. I have used Husk and Seed products for well over two years now and keep returning to the products - I feel much better using products that are know are safe and good for my skin and health ansd the bonus is that my skin looks great too.

Beautiful natural body balm that is deeply hydrating. I warm a small amount between my hands and massage it into my skin where it is immediately absorbed leaving it smooth without any greasy feel.

Patricia 5/5 Verified
This body balm is such a treat. Every time I use it I feel like I'm treating myself to some real luxury. It smells delightful, and makes my skin moisturised, silky, but it's not at all greasy or heavy. I tend to alternate between this and the body oil, and love them both.
Nicola 5/5
I have been using the instant hydration body balm for weeks now. The smell is divine and the results are just as good. My elbows are soft and my shins are no longer dry which is not something I get with body moisturisers. It is so easy to use (even in cold weather) and does not feel sticky. If I am in a hurry, I just use it on my arms and shins and, when I have time, I use it all over. I love it!

Lovely moisturising body balm. On application it sinks straight into my skin and it leaves it soft and smooth.

My skin has never felt so hydrated
Katie 5/5 Verified
I love Instant Hydration Body Balm. The scent is gorgeous, gentle and not overwhelming. I enjoy using it without the smell overwhelming as lots of body balms do. It soaks into my skin and reduces the itching and irritation I suffer from. The only down side it that I use the balm frugally as I can't afford to replace it regularly. I treat myself at times to an all over treat and use it mostly on my itchy back and my arms.
Marilyn 5/5 Verified
I love this. Instant hydration that lasts and you don’t need to use a lot. Smells divine. Would highly recommend.

My hands can get very dry and cracked and this is absolutely brilliant for making them feel smoother, softer and rehydrated. I use it every day on my hands and feet as well as on the rest of my body. Smells great and does exactly what I need it to do!
