Description

This product is allergen, nut and skin irritant free. It is a gentle, nourishing and protective barrier balm that is suitable for babies, children and adults and may help with conditions such as nappy rash, diarrhoea or incontinence irritation, bedsores, scaly and irritated skin or skin that needs a little protection. It is very smooth and easy to apply, with only a small amount needed.

It may be more expensive than a popular baby cream brand but the big difference is that this balm contains no allergens, skin irritants, parabens, petroleum, chemicals or preservatives making it an ideal product to use on the delicate and sensitive skin of babies, and for those of all ages. The ingredients chosen help to heal and protect the skin barrier, help with inflammation and wound healing, and work to protect against microbes and oxidants. It is soothing and nourishing, healing and protective.

Good to know

These premium ingredients have been chosen and combined for their special properties that help to provide skin barrier protection, reduce inflammation and itchiness, encourage healing of wounds and the skin, as well as nourish, moisturise and prevent water loss.

  • it reduces inflammation and itchiness
  • it forms a barrier and protective layer over the damaged skin helping to stop infections

Ingredients

  • Butyrospermum parkii butter (shea butter)
  • zinc oxide (non-nano) 5%
  • citrullus vulgaris seed oil (watermelon seed oil)
  • vitis vinifera seed oil (grapeseed oil)
  • olea europaea fruit oil (olive oil)
  • borago officinalis seed oil (borage seed oil)
  • tocopherol (Vitamin E)
  • helianthus annuus seed oil (sunflower seed oil)

It contains 5% zinc oxide which research has shown is sufficient to form a skin barrier. Zinc can sometimes be drying which is why this balm contains enough to be effective but not to dry delicate skin. It also contains nourishing and moisturising ingredients and ones that heal and soothe.

A higher zinc balm such as the Zinc & Camellia one contains 18% zinc and can be used when a stronger product is needed whether over a larger area or on small patches.
