Users have reported positive effects, with one reviewer noting that their skin felt “so much better” and “soothed” after just a couple of days of use. The balm is part of Jennifer Young’s Defiant Beauty collection, which was created in collaboration with cancer patients and nursing teams at an NHS cancer center. It’s important to note that while this product is designed for use during cancer treatment, it’s always recommended to consult with your medical team before using any new skincare products during treatment.
