Because it is warm here in Malaysia, it never truly solidifies. In the pot, as you see above, it is in a semi-solid state. Apparently, as May Lindstrom products are made in small batches and as these use natural ingredients, the colour will differ from batch to batch – the efficacy shouldn’t.

I’ve seen pictures that show it to be a brighter blue of the Mediterranean ocean, or to be more blue than green. Mine is a deep shade of turquoise, that makes me think of the deepest parts of the sea. I’ve noticed that the shade of blue differs from picture to picture. Blue Tansy is a flower that is supposed to have natural antihistamine and anti-inflammatory properties, so it helps calm and repair skin that is irritated or damaged.

The balm is made from various oils and blue tansy (that gives it the blue hue) so it is in a semi-solid state in the jar. What you get in a heavy, black glass jar is a tub of blue balm. I’ve been at this for weeks and barely skimmed the surface of the product. But I will be one of those who tries to justify it by saying that you only use and need very little product each time.

First off, it comes in a fairly small 50ml jar that numbs your mind when you start thinking of how much it costs. May Lindstrom Blue Cocoon is called a beauty balm concentrate and it’s a product that takes some getting used to. When I solved the issue with my skin, Blue Cocoon helped my skin recover and I was SOLD! I lapped it up, all £126/US$160 (RM680 approx) of it.

At the time, because I hadn’t identified the problem, it wasn’t a lot of help, and I mentioned on Instagram that I was disappointed. Well, it’s only taken me till NOW to give it a go and to tell you about it! To be honest, I only remembered I had it, when my skin was going a little nuts not long ago, and thought a simple skincare routine with just this would help.
