Skin irritation can go from mild to miserable in 24 hours.


Stop irritation before it becomes a flare-up.

Before and AfterCalm Irritation

Do you suffer from dry, inflamed, itchy, red, or irritated skin?

Minor skin irritation is usually a sign of low-level skin inflammation. That's why tightness, dryness, and irritation often come before a flare.

Taking action early can prevent the cycle of inflammation from taking over.

Understanding the Inflammation Cycle

Here’s something no one tells you about skin inflammation: once irritation begins, it damages your skin barrier. That damage triggers more inflammation.

This cycle becomes harder to break with each passing day. That’s why you can’t afford to wait.

The Power of Acting Quickly

The sooner you repair your barrier, the better chance you have to stop the cycle. But the product you use matters. It needs to be more than soothing—it needs to actively restore what's been lost from your skin.


One of the most overlooked pieces? Your skin’s natural acidity. When your pH rises, your barrier weakens and inflammation becomes harder to control. That’s why re-acidifying treatments can make all the difference.

Why Re-acidification?

Your Early Intervention Solution

Nu Barrier Moisturizing Balm was formulated to do one thing: stop irritation before it spirals by restoring the barrier. With it, you can replace lost moisture and reset your skin’s pH before irritation worsens.

When you catch irritation early with Nu Barrier, it’s no longer the start of weeks-or even months-of discomfort. Instead, it’s a brief inconvenience.

Before and After

Here’s what most products miss—and why it matters.

The health of your skin barrier relies on several key factors: maintaining your
skin's natural acidity, protecting the delicate balance of your skin's microbiome, and retaining moisture through natural moisturizing factor (NMF).

To stop minor skin irritation from turning into chronic or severe inflammation, you need a product that restores your skin’s natural acidity and strengthens your barrier. Our patent-pending moisturizing balm is designed to do exactly that.

It works by:

  • Supporting your skin’s natural acidity with gentle acids.
  • Protecting your microbiome by avoiding preservatives.
  • Creating a semi-occlusive layer to maintain hydration and aid barrier function.
  • Calming inflammation with plant-based anti-inflammatories.

    Every element was chosen to help your skin recover and stay resilient—without disrupting what made it healthy in the first place.

Nu Barrier Moisturizing Balm (Plant-Derived)

This product is specifically formulated to soothe and calm minor skin irritation and barrier disruption quickly and effectively. It addresses the early stages of inflammation by repairing the skin barrier.

For chronic conditions—where inflammation has persisted for weeks, months, or even years—repair takes longer as the skin barrier is significantly disrupted. This product is best for catching early or minor irritation, before it becomes chronic or severe. Early intervention gives your skin the best chance at fast recovery.
