How to use
Tear Stains & Smelly Eye Boogies:
Application: Apply a pea-sized amount around the eye rims, avoiding direct contact with the eyes. Use dry wipes or tissues to clean the area (avoid wet wipes as they can reintroduce moisture) and wipe off any excess balm if necessary. Repeat once or twice weekly.
Paw Biting:
Application: Apply a pea-sized amount in the webbing area between the toes on the top and bottom of the paw pads. Repeat once or twice weekly.
Ear Discharge & Cleaning:
Application: Apply a pea-sized amount to the pinnae and ear canal. Clean off debris using dry wipes or tissues before application to maintain hygiene and comfort. Repeat once or twice weekly.
Smelly Wrinkles:
Application: Apply a pea-sized amount to dry folds and wrinkles. Clean thoroughly with dry wipes or tissues (avoiding wet wipes) before application. Repeat once or twice weekly, reducing to once a month as a preventative measure once odours and skin health improve.
Yeasty Tail Pockets & Wrinkles:
Application: Apply a pea-sized amount to the affected area, ensuring it reaches deep into the folds or tail pocket. Clean the area with dry wipes or tissues beforehand, avoiding the use of wet wipes to prevent reintroducing moisture. Repeat once or twice weekly, reducing to once a month as a preventative measure when the skin condition improves.
Hotspots:
Application: Clean the affected area with dry wipes or tissues to remove debris and avoid wet wipes to prevent additional moisture. Apply a thin layer of balm directly to the hotspot, ensuring it is gently spread over the entire area. Repeat once or twice weekly to soothe the skin and aid in repair.

Species: Dogs
Special Features:
- ALL IN ONE SOLUTION: Our balm is the recommended solution for cats and dogs experiencing paw licking, ear discharge, minor skin irritations, redness, itchy hot spots, or tear stains. The balm is a powerful first aid, skin microbiome-balancing, and skin repair balm. The blend of essential fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals from carefully selected botanicals provide deep moisturisation, protection, and healing. The antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and prebiotic effects support a healthy skin microbiome and promote skin repair, making the balm highly effective for managing tear stains, paw licking, and other skin irritations in pets.
- SKIN MICROBIOME BALANCING: The multipurpose balm contains pre-biotics to balance the fungal and baterial skin microbiota. Brown staining is caused by yeast overgrowth due to inadequate grooming and red tear stains result from porphyrins (an iron based excreted in urine, tears and saliva). Staining only happens when tears or saliva with porphyrins stay on fur for a long time. Our formulation tackles both these issues by balancing the skin microbiome creating a protective barrier, and kickstarting skin repair.
- ANTI-MICROBIAL properties, two botanicals allow for natural antibacterial, antifugal effects balanced with the skin microbiome balancing effect. This essential food for the skin obliterates overgrowth of harmful bacteria & fungi in the early stages & rebalances the skin flora.
- VITAMINS, MINERALS & ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS Vitamin E: Antioxidant, protects and repairs skin, Vitamin K: Supports skin health. Polyphenols: Anti-inflammatory, antioxidant. Calcium: Supports skin barrier function. Potassium: Maintains skin hydration. Magnesium: Anti-inflammatory. Apigenin: Anti-inflammatory.
- ANTI-OXIDANTS, ANTI-INFLAMMATORY The formulation has poweful skin calming agents to soothe irritated skin, it also supports the skin's barrier function for long lasting hydration. The formulation also contains quercetin and nimbolide, protecting the skin from free radicals. Flavonoids and carotenoids provide strong antioxidant protection. Rich in vitamins A and E, protecting skin from nvironmental damage. Contains cinnamic acid which helps reduce inflammation
- CLINICAL STUDIES: Veterinary dermatology research informed, the FurBabies Balm is primarily composed of a carefully chosen combination of ingredients: The carefully crafted blend of Medium Chain Fatty Acid in the butters allow the balm to mimic the skin as closely as possible. Repair of the lipid matrix prevents entry of potential allergens that cause an inflammatory response. The MCFA in the butters make this a temperamental balm which means it adapts to body and room temperature. Allow to soften if it has hardened up. These FA (fatty acids) are important for restoring skin barrier integrity.
- HUMAN HOUSE DUST MITES tend to accumulate on cats and dog fur as they are not able to shed them as easily as we do. Our formulation suppresses their growth and thus any irritation caused by human house dust mites. Common in pets living in carpeted houses.
- The NON- FINGER-DIP mode of dispensing means that the products last longer by avoiding bacterial & fungal contamination from our fingers & the environment.
The Science Of Ear Irritation
Damaged Skin Barrier
A compromised skin barrier allows allergens to penetrate, leading to inflammation, itching, and increased discharge as the immune system reacts to these irritants.
Moisture & Poor Air Circulation
Breeds with floppy ears or dense fur around the ears often trap moisture and warmth, creating an ideal environment for yeast and bacterial overgrowth.
Use of Water-Based Cleaning Agents
Water based cleaners can leave excess moisture in the ear canal, encouraging yeast growth, which thrives in moist conditions and leads to itchiness and discharge.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can this balm be used on sensitive or broken skin?
Yes, the balm is formulated with pure, natural butters like shea, cocoa, avocado, and coconut, making it gentle for sensitive skin. It helps soothe and repair dry, irritated, or damaged skin. However, if your pet has deep wounds, bleeding, or signs of infection (such as swelling, redness, or pus), consult a veterinarian before use.
2. How often should I use the balm on my pet?
For most conditions like dry skin, wrinkles, tear stains, or paw biting, apply the balm once or twice weekly. For preventative care, reduce to monthly use once the skin condition improves.
3. What if my pet licks the balm after application?
The balm is safe if licked in small amounts, as it contains no harmful chemicals or stabilisers. However, try to distract your pet after application to allow the balm to absorb fully for the best results. Persistent licking of the same area may indicate discomfort or an underlying issue, so consult your vet if it continues.
4. Can this balm help with hotspots or yeasty skin folds?
Yes, the balm is effective for soothing hotspots, smelly wrinkles, and yeasty tail pockets. Its natural moisturising and anti-inflammatory properties help calm irritated skin. Clean the area thoroughly with a dry tissue before applying the balm. If hotspots or yeast issues persist despite regular use, seek veterinary advice
5. When should I seek medical intervention instead of using the balm?
If you notice any of the following signs, consult your vet:
- Persistent redness, swelling, or oozing in the affected area.
- Foul odours that do not improve with balm application.
- Persistent chronic licking, scratching, or biting at the skin.
- Signs of discomfort such as limping or sensitivity to touch.
- Recurring skin issues despite regular use of the balm.
Always prioritise professional care if your pet's condition does not improve or worsens over time.
6. Why is this balm superior to water-based ear cleaners, tear stain removers, or antiseptic medications?
Unlike water-based ear cleaners or tear stain removers, our balm does not contain moisture, which can promote yeast and bacterial growth when left on the skin. Many water-based products, as well as some powder-based tear stain removers, contain ingredients that either mask discoloration temporarily or bleach the fur. These can irritate the skin and disrupt the natural microbial balance, causing the problem to return with a vengeance.
Our balm is carefully crafted to address the root causes of skin issues, such as:
- Suffocation of mites: The balm helps soothe and repair areas affected by mites, promoting healing without aggravating the skin or contributing to further irritation.
- Skin repair & barrier protection: By using pure butters that nourish and strengthen the skin’s natural barrier, our balm provides lasting protection and moisture retention without relying on moisture that could weaken the skin over time.
- Microbial imbalance: Our natural ingredients help restore a healthy skin microbiome, tackling microbial imbalance effectively, rather than masking symptoms.
