My Personal Experience with Jones Road Miracle Balm

First Impressions

I picked out the 'Flushed' shade of Jones Road Miracle Balm for $38 on their website. Shipping was fast. Truth be told, my expectations were on the low side however, this little balm really was full of surprise!

 Pros of Miracle Balm

  •  Texture and Feel: The Miracle Balm redefines the makeup experience. When applied, it feels less like a cosmetic layer and more like a luxurious skin treatment. I use a pea size amount and really work it between my fingers before applying.  For those of us who have navigated the tricky waters of oily skin in the past and now find ourselves in the realm of drier, mature skin, this product is a refreshing change. Its emollient texture blurs the lines between skincare and makeup.

  •  Adaptability and Durability: The beauty of this balm lies in its versatility. It can be used on its own or over foundation, adapting to your skin's needs. It merges seamlessly without emphasizing fine lines or wrinkles, offering a youthful glow. The generous amount in each jar ensures it will last, providing exceptional value.

  •  Color Range and Sensation: The array of shades available caters to a broad spectrum of skin tones, with each color designed to complement rather than overpower. It’s lightweight, buildable, and genuinely matches the claim of being light and buildable. This is      especially noteworthy in a market where such claims are often made but not met.

  •  Perfect for Mature and/or Dry Skin: This balm is like a best friend for mature or dry skin types. It may not be recommended for the eyes, but it works wonders for cheeks, temples, forehead, bridge of the nose, and lips. It offers flexibility in application, allowing you to dictate the intensity of the color and sheen depending on your mood and needs.

Cons of Miracle Balm

  • Application Nuances: It’s important to note that a little goes a long way with this balm. If it feels too greasy, you’ve probably applied too much. Make sure to really warm it up between your fingers before applying. Experiment to find the perfect balance for your skin.

  •  Considerations for Oily Skin Types: Those with oily skin might find this balm too rich. It's a reminder that skin types vary, and what works for one might not work for another.

  •  Packaging Feedback: A small suggestion for Jones Road – including a tiny reusable scoop would enhance the user experience. It’s a small touch, but it goes a long way in maintaining hygiene and convenience. There are many of us who can't bear digging our fingers into balms. As silly as that may seem to some, it kept me from seriously looking at the product even though the aggressive marketing campaign was everywhere.

Rating

While a 4.3/5 overall score based on 47,734 reviews is lower than I thought it would be, you can't please everyone. I'd give it a firm 4.9, only because I can't use it on my eyes.  I don't want much! 🌟
