Write for us
The Balmary welcomes clear, original pitches about everyday skincare routines and product choices. We are interested in useful explanations and fresh angles, not medical advice, miracle promises or an inventory of products without a reader's question at its centre.
What to pitch
Propose a focused subject about routine order, textures, labels, habits or the small decisions around keeping a routine. A strong idea has a clear reader question, a distinct point of view and a reason it is worth exploring now. Tell us what the piece would help a reader notice or decide.
What makes a good submission
Send a short summary, a working title and a brief note on how you would handle the subject. Keep claims proportionate, distinguish personal preference from general information and flag any commercial connection relevant to the proposal. We do not consider unsupported medical claims or copy written to promise a particular skin outcome.
How to send it
Submit your proposal through the Contact page and choose the editorial question option. Please send a pitch rather than a full article unless we have requested one; submitting an idea does not guarantee publication.
A routine is a set of choices, not a test
We think skin care can be thoughtful without becoming elaborate. The useful routine is the one you can understand, enjoy and keep up with.
