Description:
This balm was created for those going through Topical Steroid Withdrawal, to help dry ooze during the withdrawal stage and help heal red lesions. This treatment balm is a blend of pharmaceutical-grade Zinc Oxide with other healing oils and butters. Zinc forces skin regeneration so it is good for rashes, scars, minor skin irritations, and eczema. Bentonite is great for detoxing the skin it helps absorbs and remove toxins.

Directions:
Apply a generously to coat the skin, after a bath and cover with clothing, socks, gloves, or gauze for optimal results. Best used at night. May stain clothing and furniture.
This product is deemed safe by UK & EU cosmetic regulations.

So many things that used to be safe for me are no longer, including Sudocrem which now burns me, but this has been my saviour on the night after a scratch fest. I'm trying so hard not to, but like anyone going through TSW knows, it's hard, so I've been putting this on my arms and covering with tubular bandages and it's doing a world of good. It's also helping my hands and anywhere else I put it, so I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone else suffering
I am 18 months into Topical Steroid Withdrawal and have taken several approaches throughout my healing journey. The most successful approach for me has been NMT (no moisturising treatment) whereby I have used very little or no moisturiser at all. Being 18 months in I decided to try my TSW Zinc Balm again as I was struggling with the heat which was exacerbating itchy/inflamed patches on my hands/arms/ankles and armpits! I was hesitant to add moisturiser in again but the TSW Zinc Balm is not so 'wet' and allows a protective barrier that offers enough drying/moisturising in one.
The TSW Zinc Balm in the space of one month (small amounts - twice daily) has given me the break I've been waiting for for some time and has reduced my itching and skin breaking habits which prolong healing. I would most definitely recommend this product to anyone needing relief from TSW 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟.
I love the TSW zinc balm it’s been a game changer for me. Having gone through TSW it’s really helped with oozy patches and reduce inflammation. I find it useful to apply before bed in my skin folds such as on my neck and I wake up less irritated. Thank you for such a fab product!
As my skin is so up and down in TSW it’s really hard for me to take photos for comparison but the balm has helped me so much. The zinc balm honestly provides some pain relief during red hot flares and I’ve found nothing else to do that except ice packs which only help temporarily. I find my skin gets to the healing stage of flaking quicker when I use the balm!
I really recommend the product for anyone struggling with inflamed burning flare ups. All the ingredients are amazing!
Thank you for sharing
My eczema has been rather aggressive since pollen season decided to go full on in the UK. And this pot gave me some much needed relief, reducing redness and helping dry out my skin (in a good way). I believe the zinc oxide in this product is the key healer for my skin. Great to use such a natural product on my super sensitive skin. Also love the fact that the shelf life is a year means I can use as liberally as needed for when those nasty flares hit!
