Balms by Loving Herbs: A Local Bundabah Maker Creating Gentle Herbal Remedies

On the Mid North Coast of NSW, there’s a quiet but growing appreciation for small-batch makers who work closely with nature, creating products with intention rather than haste. One such local maker is Balms by Loving Herbs, a Bundabah-based creator producing handcrafted herbal remedies using organic, plant-based ingredients.

Made in small batches and guided by traditional herbal knowledge, these balms are designed to support everyday skin care needs in a gentle, uncomplicated way — without synthetic additives or unnecessary fillers.

Handmade in Bundabah Using Natural Ingredients

All balms are handcrafted in Bundabah using 100% natural ingredients, with herbs slowly infused into grapeseed oil to extract their beneficial properties. Beeswax and shea butter form the base, creating balms that are nourishing without feeling heavy or greasy.

Each blend is thoughtfully formulated for a specific purpose, whether that’s soothing irritated skin, deeply moisturising hands and feet, or providing everyday lip care.

A Personal Note

While this isn’t a review, it’s worth mentioning that the Nourish Balm has quietly become part of my own daily routine. It’s simple, effective, and does exactly what it’s designed to do — which, in many ways, says everything.
