Above the Curve The Balm Dot Calm

February 18, 2015 by Nina 2 Comments

Press Sample

Good afternoon everyone!  How is the weather in your area?  Here is dry and freezing cold, aka kryptonite to a lacquerista!  While I don’t enjoy humid, summer weather, my nails do.  This cold dry weather has been a great opportunity to try out a new product from Above the Curve.

The Balm Dot Calm is a thick jelly like balm made from lanolin, avocado oil, vitamin 3, hemp seed oil, fragrance oil.  One thing I have to bring up that I just love is the handy brush applicator they include.  Getting balm out of tubs with nails is just a big pain in the butt!  The brush made getting the balm out and applying super easy.  The balm is the consistency of jelly and does leave a thick film but after a few minutes it is mostly absorbed and I just finish with a paper towel.  They only thing I didn’t care for was the scent and I think that mostly has to do with the lanolin.  My cuticles and the surrounding nail bed were well nourished and seemed to last for hours.

So have you guys tried The Balm Dot Calm yet?  Other than the smell, I give this stuff a huge thumbs up.  The Balm Dot Calm is currently sold out but should be restocked very soon.  Until then you can check out all the other great goodies Above the Curve has to offer and give them a follow on Facebook and Instagram for latest stock info.  Thank you so much for stopping by today and I will see you all again tomorrow. <3

This product was sent to me for review purposes but that does not influence my final opinion.

    This balm is not available right now and I LOVE it. I am desperate to find on similar in consistency and effectiveness. Any suggestions??

      I sadly do not know of anyone else with a formula like theirs, it was certainly unique. Hopefully they will be bringing it back soon. <3

It was a crazy week at home with appointments, taking care of a sick puppy, and managing a household, but I wanted to share some more lovely lacquers from SuperChic Lacquer. Today, I have Psycho from SuperChic Lacquer to share. This was just the perfect silver holographic crackle shade for Halloween since it was inspired by the film Psycho, and I thought a red glitter base would be the ideal pairing....
