What is SkinCeuticals Hydra Balm?
SkinCeuticals Hydra Balm is a multi-functional occlusive balm that leaves a protective film over very dry and compromised skin to help seal moisture in. It is built on pure petrolatum with aloe, bisabolol, squalane and rose hip fruit oil to soothe dryness, itchiness and discomfort. SkinCeuticals recommends it for dry, sensitive and sensitized skin and for use after professional treatments and procedures. Apply it liberally as needed to dry areas on the face and body, or as an overnight treatment for hands and feet under gloves or socks. Available at SkinCrew in 50 ml ($25).

The problem
Some skin is beyond what a regular moisturizer can fix: cracked knuckles in winter, flaking patches around the nose, heels that feel like sandpaper, or a face that feels raw and tight after a professional treatment. Creams absorb and disappear within the hour, and the dryness, itch and discomfort come straight back because nothing is holding the water in.
A protective seal for skin that needs it most.
Hydra Balm works by occlusion. Petrolatum forms a film that slows moisture loss and shields vulnerable skin, while squalane and rose hip fruit oil add emollient lipids and aloe and bisabolol calm the feel of dryness and itching. It is silicone-free, paraben-free and dye-free, and one small tube covers the face after a procedure and the hands, feet and elbows on the coldest days.

SkinCeuticals Hydra Balm: an occlusive balm that locks in moisture
SkinCeuticals Hydra Balm is an occlusive moisturizing balm for very dry, sensitive and compromised skin. Its base of pharmaceutical-grade petrolatum creates a protective barrier over vulnerable skin, and SkinCeuticals pairs it with aloe and bisabolol to relieve dryness and itching and soothe discomfort. It is designed for use after professional treatments and procedures as well as everyday dry patches.
Squalane, an ingredient compatible with the skin's own lipids, and rose hip fruit oil, rich in linoleic, oleic, stearic and palmitic fatty acids, reinforce the skin barrier. Rice bran oil and vitamin E round out the formula. Hydra Balm is paraben-free, alcohol-free, dye-free and silicone-free, and works on both face and body. Available at SkinCrew, an Authorized SkinCeuticals US Retailer, with fast US shipping.

Why Hydra Balm Stands Out
- True occlusion. Petrolatum forms a protective film that slows moisture loss and shields vulnerable skin, which lighter creams cannot do.
- Calming botanicals. Aloe and bisabolol relieve the feel of dryness and itching and soothe skin discomfort.
- Post-procedure ready. SkinCeuticals designed Hydra Balm for use after professional treatments and procedures, when skin is at its most vulnerable.
- Face to feet. Use it on dry patches of the face, then as an overnight treatment for hands or feet under gloves or socks.

SkinCeuticals Hydra Balm FAQ
What is SkinCeuticals Hydra Balm used for?
Hydra Balm is an occlusive balm for very dry, sensitive and compromised skin. Petrolatum forms a protective barrier that seals moisture in, while aloe, bisabolol, squalane and rose hip fruit oil soothe dryness and itching. SkinCeuticals recommends it after professional treatments and for dry areas on the face and body.
Can I use Hydra Balm after a professional treatment?
Yes. SkinCeuticals designed Hydra Balm for use after professional treatments and procedures, when skin needs a protective barrier. Always follow the aftercare plan from your provider about when to start applying it and how often.
Can I use Hydra Balm on my hands and feet?
Yes. For a targeted dry-skin treatment, SkinCeuticals suggests applying a light coating to hands or feet in the evening and covering them with gloves or socks overnight. It also works on dry elbows and knees.
Is Hydra Balm the same as petroleum jelly?
No. Petrolatum is the base, but Hydra Balm adds squalane, rose hip fruit oil, rice bran oil, vitamin E, aloe and bisabolol. These add barrier-supporting lipids and soothing botanicals on top of the occlusive seal that plain petroleum jelly provides.
What is the difference between Hydra Balm and Epidermal Repair?
Hydra Balm is a thick occlusive balm that seals moisture into very dry or compromised skin on the face and body. Epidermal Repair is a lighter, calming face treatment for sensitized skin. Many people use Epidermal Repair first and Hydra Balm on top of especially dry areas.
Is Hydra Balm suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. SkinCeuticals lists Hydra Balm for dry, sensitive and sensitized skin. The formula is paraben-free, alcohol-free, dye-free and silicone-free, and it relies on petrolatum, plant oils and soothing botanicals such as aloe and bisabolol to comfort skin that feels tight or itchy.
Is SkinCrew an authorized SkinCeuticals retailer in the US?
Yes. SkinCrew is an Authorized SkinCeuticals US Retailer and sources every unit directly from SkinCeuticals, so Hydra Balm arrives fresh, authentic and in current packaging, with fast US shipping.
