Troubleshooting
Skin feels greasy or not absorbing
You might be applying too much product. Use a very thin layer and gently massage it into the skin. Balms are designed to be richer, so a little goes a long way.
No noticeable improvement in dryness or irritation after several days of use
Ensure you are applying the balm consistently, as recommended (e.g., twice daily). If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist, as the issue might require different treatment.
Mild redness or stinging after application
While formulated for sensitive skin, individual reactions can occur. Discontinue use if irritation persists or worsens. Check product ingredients against known allergies.
Product is separating or has an unusual texture
Ensure the product has been stored correctly (cool, dry place). If the texture has significantly changed or if there is an unusual odor, the product may have expired or been compromised. Do not use and dispose of it safely.
