Sanctuary Barrier Balm

Description + Essential Oil Free INTENTION An essential oil free balm in a rich yet breathable formula. A moisture-locking blend filled with nutrient-dense raw butters and oils plus raw beeswax, a range of plant sterols, and phospholipids. Working in harmony to provide sanctuary for dry, sensitive conditions. Amazonian butters of cupuacu, tucuma, ucuuba, and bacuri are abundant in naturally occurring inflammation modulation compounds that soothe irritated skin.  Helping to maintain elasticity, a key component of healthy skin.  Nutrients from the butters feed the skin to better protect against hypersensitivity while the emollients soften rough, dry patches.  If the skin is compromised, the properties help wounds such as general barrier damage and burns caused by the sun and/or wind. Buriti, bacaba, and graviola oils provide a complex array of antioxidants such as flavonoids and polyphenols to protect against cellular degradation from UV and other environmental stressors. The ceramide-rich jojoba wax and protective pomegranate sterols create the seal providing the final occlusive element - preventing water loss and supporting the other ingredients to improve all-over moisture.
