ITCHY PAWS, SCALY ELBOWS, RED MUZZLE & BELLY, COAT ITCH, EAR DISCHARGE MULTIPURPOSE BALM FOR PETS (30ml)

This Multipurpose Balm is for: Dry cracked paws, dry cracked nose, moist smelly wrinkles, yeasty tail pockets, skin folds, tear stains, paw licking/ biting (check if behavioural), red jaw acne, red sore scaly skin and as a pet first aid balm. 

PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASE: PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A TEMPERAMENTAL BALM AND CHANGES CONSISTENCY. IN COLD WEATHER THE BALM HARDENS UP. ALLOW TO SOFTEN (by placing in a warm place) BEFORE SQUEEZING. IN HOT WEATHER THE BALM CHANGES ITS STATE TO LIQUID (cool to promote solidification). THIS ADAPTATION IS due to the presence of Medium-Chain Fatty Acids (MCFAs) in the butters. These MCFAs are vital for skin repair, and we chose not to strip them out during production. 

Species: Cats & 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 environmental 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.

How to Use

Squueze a pea-sized amount onto your fingertips, allowing the rich blend to adapt to temperature.   Gently apply on to tear stained area, inbetween the paw webbing, or on any irritated areas on the skin such as skinfolds, along the jaws, back of the tail, avoiding contact with the eyes and sensitive areas. Wipe away any excess and discharge, leaving your dog refreshed. Repeat once weekly or monthly, depending on the severity of concerns. This balm is free of pore blocking fillers or bulking agents found in many products such as water, wax or paraffin.

For longhaired pets, you may find that applying after separating the hair/fur is more useful. 

Use sparingly as the formulation is quite rich & very small quantities are needed to exert desired effect.

Product Information & Instructions

Natural Adaptation & Ingredients: Our balms naturally adapt to room and environmental temperatures due to the presence of Medium-Chain Fatty Acids (MCFAs) in the butters. These MCFAs are vital for skin repair, and we chose not to strip them out during production. As a result, the balm changes consistency depending on external temperatures. Storage Tips: Store in a cool, dry place. In warmer weather, refrigeration may help maintain consistency. In cooler weather, the balm will harden up & be difficult to squeeze out of the tube & can cause the end of the tube folds to open up if too much pressure is applied. Allow to soften using a method of your choice for example by putting it on a radiator for a few seconds.

Metal Tubes for Easy Application: We selected metal tubes to maintain product hygiene and to allow the balm to soften in colder weather upon contact with your hands through natural conduction. Simply warm the tube in your hands before use, and the balm will soften, making it easy to apply.

Skin Repair: Our balms aid in skin repair by nourishing and hydrating the skin barrier. The rate of repair depends on the extent and duration of the skin damage, so consistent use is key. Allow to soften at room temperature if the balm has hardened up & if it has melted allow to cool to a paste. This is a natural behaviour of MCFAs which are important for skin repair.
