Stephanie Davis has opened up on her eczema struggles in the past and has shared the product that has become a firm favourite in her skincare routine during those times
Stephanie Davis, known for her role as Coronation Street’s Courtney Vance, has spoken candidly about her ongoing skin struggles. But in a social media post, the soap star revealed her go-to product that has been a game-changer during tough times.
In an Instagram reel that has racked up over 322,000 views, Stephanie raved about the Balmonds Skin Salvation balm , which she credits for helping her regain her confidence. Priced from £9 a pot – it’s more affordable than some of the options on the beauty market.
Speaking on the balm, Stephanie shared: “As you all know I’ve struggled for a long time with my skin. This is something I know that every single one of you will benefit from, not just those suffering with eczema or TSW. Balmonds Skincare has helped me so much during the most difficult times and helped regain my confidence.”

Stephanie, who has tried numerous products, swears by Balmonds due to its all-natural ingredients, the MEN reports. The highly-rated balm, which has been given the thumbs up by dermatologists and paediatricians, boasts an impressive list of just eight natural ingredients, including beeswax, olive oil, safflower, hemp, calendula, chamomile, chickweed and nettle.
She added: “There are so many creams on the market that claim to be “good” for your skin, but when looking at what’s in the actual ingredients, they are not good for your skin at all. Balmonds are all natural products, you can check the ingredients for yourself and compare it to the creams you already have at home. I can’t recommend Balmonds enough. I’ll forever be grateful for Balmonds helping me through that terrible time and giving me my confidence back.”
On the Balmonds website, the skincare hero has earned an impressive average score of 4.6 out of 5 from a staggering 3000+ reviews. One satisfied customer exclaimed: “I’m amazed! After years of struggling with my eczema around my mouth and trying SO many different products I’ve finally found the one! It’s was like magic! ”
Another triumphant review comes from a shopper who wrote: “I genuinely don’t know what I would do without this product. I began to use it after deciding to move away from steroid creams. I have tried lots of natural products, but nothing works like this salve. It is amazing for my eczema (which I have suffered with for years) and does more for my skin than any other product I have ever used. It is so so good. Couldn’t recommend more.”
However, not everyone has been sold by the balm, with one three-star comment reading: “Purchased for my daughter who has suffered with eczema this has helped soothe the skin but not stop the itching, but is better than all the other creams she has used.”
Even our own Jada Jones joins in the accolades, stating: “I had a pretty bad allergic reaction to an expensive face cream a couple of years ago, I was embarrassed to leave the house as my skin was so dry and sore. Then I tried Balmonds and it cleared up so quickly I was honestly amazed, I recommend it to everyone with sensitive skin. The balm is quite greasy so you might get some on your pillow case and its not one to follow up with makeup.”
Other balms on the market purport to offer comparable outcomes, including Jeunvie’s balm, priced at £34.99 and Bria’s baby balm retailing for £15.95. There’s also the Nursem Ultra Caring Body Balm, which is £30. The fragrance-free formula is enriched with colloidal oatmeal that has a soothing effect on the skin, helping to calm soreness. Ideal for eczema-prone skin, the Nursem Ultra Caring Body Balm is suitable for any skin type.
