VELVET Barrier 8

Hand-poured in Guelph, Ontario | 56 g / 2 oz | Apothecary Luxe Series

Note:  VELVET Barrier 8 is available in two versions:  Sylvan Sun & "Fragrance-Free" both versions offer the exact same botanical performance - our Fragrance Free has zero essential oils—ideal for those with sensitive skin or a preference for an unscented ritual.

Protect, Shield, and Soften Dry Skin Velvet Barrier 8  is a high-performance, water free balm formulated to defend the skin against the harshest environmental stressors.  We designed the formula to specifically solve extreme wind, low-humidity environments, and /or the abrasive effects of daily life (scrapes, minor cuts). This formula creates a breathable, velvet-dry "second skin" that promotes rapid repair and resilience.  It absorbs fast.   Your skin feels Super Soft - similar to velvet; hence the name.

The Science of 8: Functional Synergy

We have selected 8 key ingredients that work in Synergy to provide an impermeable shield without compromising skin health.

  • ✨ Allantoin (Comfrey): The Botanical "Star" of this salve is very effective at soothing  scrapes and stings that come with active lifestyles. Clinical-grade soothing properties to calm irritation and accelerate the regeneration of weathered or compromised skin..  
  • 🐝 Beeswax (Vitamin A):  A natural occlusive that forms a breathable shield, locking in moisture while delivering regenerative Vitamin A.
  • 🍑 Apricot & Rice Bran Oils: Chosen for their high antioxidant content and deep nourishment without leaving greasy residue on skin.

  • 🥥 Kokum & Cocoa Butters: Hard-working botanical fats that offer intense hydration and protection against the elements.

  • ☁️ Sifted Arrowroot Finish Unlike traditional greasy balms, we use finely sifted Arrowroot powder to ensure a "velvet-dry" silky finish. It absorbs quickly, leaving your skin protected but never slick. Your skin feels super soft and silky.

  • 🛡️ Stable & Resilient Formulated with Kokum and Cocoa butters, this salve is travel-safe and temperature-resilient.
