Soothe | Protect | Support Recovery

Owie Balm is a potent, all-natural healing balm crafted to support the skin’s natural recovery process.
Formulated with a blend of traditional and scientifically backed ingredients, it offers soothing relief for wounds, rashes, and dry, irritated skin — safely and effectively.

Key Features

Traditional Wisdom
Inspired by generations of use, Owie Balm incorporates kawakawa and calendula — two powerful plants traditionally used to soothe and repair the skin. Our formula began as a balm used in our family to manage Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), passed down from my mother-in-law.

Medicinal-Grade Manuka Honey (MGO 550+)
Renowned for its strong antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, manuka honey supports natural healing, helps prevent infection, and promotes tissue regeneration.

Natural Preservation
Owie Balm contains no synthetic preservatives or fillers. Instead, it's preserved naturally using tea tree oil and antioxidant-rich vitamin E.

Versatile, Non-Stinging Formula
Suitable for use on minor wounds, eczema patches, insect bites, dry skin, and chapped lips. Safe for sensitive skin and babies. It doesn’t sting — in fact, it helps take the sting and itch away.

Eco-Friendly & Economical
Packaged in a 40g recyclable glass jar. A little goes a long way, making it a cost-effective staple for every household.

How often should I apply it?

Apply as needed — after bathing, before dressing the wound, or whenever the area feels dry or uncomfortable.

Can it be used with a dressing or band-aid?

Yes, Owie Balm can be used under a plaster or bandage, or left uncovered depending on your preference.

How is it preserved without chemicals?

We use the natural antimicrobial properties of tea tree oil and the antioxidant power of vitamin E — no synthetics needed.

Does Owie Balm replace medical treatment?

Owie Balm supports skin recovery but is not a substitute for professional medical care. Seek medical advice for serious, deep, or infected wounds.

Is this product for me?

If you're looking for a natural, gentle alternative to antibacterial creams and plasters — Owie Balm is for you.

Especially loved by mums of adventurous kids, and anyone with sensitive or fragile skin (including EB), Owie Balm supports daily healing with simple, potent ingredients. It replaces multiple first-aid and skincare products with one clean, effective balm.

Perfect for families, first-aid kits, and daily skin support.

How to use

Apply a thin layer to eczema-affected areas, cuts, scratches, rashes, and insect bites to soothe, protect, and support the skin’s natural healing.
Cover with a plaster if the wound is large or freshly scratched. Alternatively, let the balm act as a protective barrier on its own.
Reapply as needed or until the skin has naturally recovered.
Also works beautifully as a healing lip balm.
