Why Every Climber Needs a Natural Hand Balm (And What to Use After Climbing)

1 min read

Climbing isn’t just tough on your body—it’s brutal on your skin. Split tips, dry calluses, and flappers are badges of honor, sure—but they also slow you down. Most commercial creams? Too greasy, too softening, or full of synthetic junk.

That’s where natural hand balms come in.

A good climbing balm:

• Heals skin without softening your calluses

• Soothes inflammation and sore tendons

• Absorbs fast, no greasy hands

• Smells clean and calming, not overpowering

At BalmCo, we handcraft balms with plant-powered ingredients like Tamanu, Calendula, and Helichrysum—used for centuries to repair skin and reduce pain. Made in small batches, every tin is fresh, potent, and designed for post-session healing.

Because strong hands deserve real care.
