Ingredients
Ingredients We Use
All of our balms are made using carefully selected natural ingredients, each chosen for a specific purpose. Not every ingredient appears in every balm — each formula only includes what it needs, nothing more.
Base & Carrier Ingredients
Tallow
Tallow is the foundation of our nourishing hand balm. Rich in skin-compatible fatty acids, it helps support the skin barrier, soften rough patches, and provide long-lasting hydration.
👉 Nourishing Hand Balm
Shea Butter
A deeply nourishing plant-based butter rich in vitamins A and E. Shea butter helps soften dry, cracked skin while forming a gentle protective layer to lock in moisture.
Mango Butter
Used in our vegan hand balm, mango butter is lightweight, fast-absorbing, and non-greasy. It helps moisturise and protect the skin without leaving residue. 👉 Vegan Hand Balm
Hemp Oil
Lightweight and fast-absorbing, hemp oil is rich in omega fatty acids that help calm irritated skin and support balanced hydration.
Jojoba Oil
Jojoba oil closely resembles the skin’s natural sebum, making it highly effective at conditioning the skin without clogging pores. It absorbs quickly and helps maintain balanced moisture levels.
Beeswax
Beeswax creates a breathable protective barrier that locks in moisture while helping shield skin from environmental stress.
Candelilla Wax
A vegan alternative to beeswax that helps thicken and stabilise balms while providing a smooth, non-greasy finish.
Arrowroot Powder
Added to improve texture and absorb excess oil, arrowroot gives the balms a clean, dry feel after application.
Botanical Oils & Skin-Supporting Ingredients
Calendula-Infused Oil
Calendula is traditionally used to support sensitive or reactive skin. Infused into oil, it helps calm areas exposed to friction or pressure — particularly useful for feet inside tight shoes.
Neem Oil
Commonly used in foot care, neem oil is valued for supporting skin exposed to warm, enclosed environments and frequent use. 👉 Purifying Foot Balm
Tamanu Oil
A rich, conditioning oil often used to support dry or compromised skin. Tamanu helps balms feel restorative on stressed or overworked areas. 👉 Bug Bite Relief Balm
Essential Oils & Actives
Lavender Essential Oil
Known for its calming and skin-supportive properties, lavender helps soothe irritated skin and supports minor skin repair.
Frankincense Essential Oil
Prized for its skin-conditioning qualities, frankincense helps support dry or stressed skin and contributes to a healthy skin barrier.
Helichrysum Essential Oil
Premium oil used in skincare for damaged or sensitive skin, helichrysum is valued for its soothing and regenerative reputation.
Lemongrass Essential Oil
Fresh and naturally deodorising, lemongrass helps keep skin feeling clean and refreshed after long sessions or heavy use.
Tea Tree Essential Oil
Used for its cleansing properties, tea tree supports skin hygiene — particularly in warm, sweaty conditions.
Oregano Essential Oil
Used in very small amounts for its powerful purifying qualities as part of targeted skin-care blends. 👉 Purifying Foot Balm
Geranium (Bourbon) Essential Oil
Added for its balancing feel and soft, herbaceous scent, often used in products designed to calm reactive-feeling skin.
Blue Tansy Essential Oil
Included for its reputation in soothing irritated or reactive-looking skin and supporting comfort after environmental exposure. 👉 Bug Bite Relief Balm
Rosemary CO₂ Extract
An antioxidant used to help protect the oils in the balm and support product freshness and stability.
Let customers speak for us
from 19 reviewsI’ve tried so many different hand balms, creams & moisturisers. CLIMB CARE is the best! My skin has never been so good. Struggling with my climber is no longer because of my skin being sore, dry, cracked or ripped, just my lack of strength & technique letting me down now. I cannot recommend this product enough if you climb regularly, it’ll keep you going through every session.
This balm has sorted out athletes foot, calmed hard working climbers feet and soothed the skin!
I’ve used this balm on dry skin as well as huge flappers from climbing, and it’s always made a huge improvement just overnight! It smells so good that I want to eat it (I haven’t… yet) and I always notice a drastic difference in my skin when I stop using it. If you’re a climber with soft, easily damaged skin- this is the stuff for you!
This balm did absolute magic for my flapper and was fully healed, climbing without tape in a week! Now, I use it regularly after climbing, keeping my skin in great condition.
Used the Lavender Balm Vegan Edition from ClimbCare—solid for climbers’ hands. Absorbs quick, no residue, soothes splits well. Lavender scent’s subtle, not overpowering. Works, does what it says.
We absolutely love using climb care. It's always hard to find vegan options that truly work, and climb care has been so beneficial to our training. As climbers with skin that breaks easily and struggles to heal, it's massively sped up the process!
It's super easy to apply and rub in over your hands each morning and before going to bed. Feels like it heals my skin like magic 😂! Would definitely recommend 🔥.
Climb care always lasts for ages so kit is really good value for money. Is really nice on the feet too. Bag is sweet too and durable, take it with me for every climbing session
As a setter I really value being able to recover quickly for my next set, and climb care is my go to for getting my skin ready to try hard!
Fantastic hand balm! Absorbs really well and perfect for every day use. Has been a great help to heal a stubborn finger scar :)
Really helped my hands recover from weight training and using the pull up bar
I love this little product. It lives in my climbing bag now. I always had dry and bloody cuticles and it was hard to find creams that helped. ClimbCare has done it marvelously, absorbing quickly and smelling amazing!
My review is already in your marketing materials! I’m the one who said it smells divine and I’m not lying, but I do love lavender. The best hand moisturiser I have had in yonks. I love Climb Care!
Best hand balm on the market in my opinion. Having tried multiple brands I can honestly say this is the best. I use it for my hands but also on my kid’s too when they get dry or irritated skin. Absolutely chuffed with the product and the after sales care and support from the climb care team is second to none. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
