LIVE BOTANICAL - Sanctuary Barrier Balm

LIVE BOTANICAL - Sanctuary Barrier Balm

An essential oil free balm that is Live Botanical's most occlusive, yet breathable formula. A moisture-locking blend filled with nutrient-dense raw butters and oils plus plant-based waxes, sterols, and phospholipids. Working in harmony to provide sanctuary for dry, sensitive conditions.

This balm contains no added essential oils and the scent is natural and very earthy. Please be aware butters have a low melting point and can melt in transit. This does not impact the product's efficacy in any way.

What sets this balm apart from others is the inclusion of unrefined oil-based phospholipids. When layered on damp skin, it creates an effective skin-identical layer. It also helps improve the absorption of active ingredients and the delivery of sustained moisture throughout the day. Acting as a mild emulsifier to better incorporate water-based hydrating serums without causing harm to the lipid barrier.

How to use: Apply as the final layer in your skincare routine. For best results, ensure the skin is damp/hydrated to improve moisture function. It can also be used as a restorative night mask by applying a thicker layer, allowing a slow absorption while you sleep.

During warmer months or when not as dry, mix in your palm with a hydrating serum to create a day cream for a lighter application.

We find this best paired with the Ambient Moisture Liquid for increased hydration.
