With the harsh external elements of city living, the skin is prone to premature ageing, acne, and hyperpigmentation, to name a few. Choosing the right grooming routine and sticking to the regime will avoid the unnecessary strain of experimenting on the skin.
Angela Turovskaya, the founder of Balmessence, believes it’s never too early to invest in some well-formulated grooming products to accentuate natural looks and to achieve a smoother complexion. She adds: “By enhancing the cosmetic integrity of nature’s own ingredients, we offer our clientele a sophisticated array of products, accessories and niche perfumes designed to make them look and feel gorgeous and healthy, just as nature intended.”
Balmessence offers a range of ethically sourced and luxurious skincare products from cleansers, serums, aftershave gels and moisturizers. The brand’s male luxury grooming edits are designed as a complete package for the essential self-care routine of a modern man. The brand’s Male Grooming package has nine products.

Its anti-pollution filter and antioxidant activity protect the skin against environmental damages such as thermal shock, pollution, and air conditioning. It relieves tightness and revives the complexion, preventing the apparition of expression lines.
