You read every label. So do we.
Your skin now
The 2am itch that wakes you up. The thick cream that sits on top and stains the sheets. The light lotion that's gone by lunch. The free-and-clear aisle you've already worked through twice, and the prescription option that comes with a warning label.
With the balm
One pea-sized application that absorbs in and stays put. Comfort that lasts hours, not minutes. Eight ingredients you can read out loud, so there's nothing to second-guess before you put it on your own skin, or your kid's. Made by a family whose skin is exactly as picky as yours.
Why we made this
We couldn't find it, so we made it
“We wanted one thing: a deeply hydrating balm with no chemicals, no additives, and nothing synthetic. It didn't exist — so we made it ourselves.”
Emu oil is one of the most moisturizing ingredients in nature, but its cost means very few products use it — and the ones that did were full of fillers we didn't want on our own skin. So we blended it with seven other natural ingredients in small batches here in the USA. We use every jar ourselves, and we've kept the formula to exactly eight ingredients ever since. Derma Root is still family-owned and independent.
The formula
Eight ingredients. Three jobs.
No preservatives. No fragrance. No fillers. If it's not on this card, it's not in the jar.
Drenches dry, thirsty skin with moisture that absorbs in instead of sitting on top.
Locks that moisture in with a breathable layer that helps your skin barrier do its job.
Quiets the urge to scratch and calms the look of redness, hour after hour.
Give your skin the simple option
8 ingredients. 90-day guarantee. Ships within 1 business day.

Questions
Everything a careful label-reader would ask
Why no steroids?
On purpose. Steroid creams have their place, but their own labels limit how long you can use them, and many people want something gentle enough for every single day. The balm is built for exactly that: eight natural ingredients that moisturize, protect, and calm, with nothing you need to cycle off.
Why no water?
Flip over most moisturizers and water is the first ingredient. Water evaporates in minutes and takes the relief with it, and it's the reason those creams need preservatives. Our balm is 100% active: eight oils and waxes that absorb in and stay. No water means no preservatives, and nothing extra to irritate reactive skin.
Is it safe for children and babies?
Yes. The balm is gentle enough for babies older than 3 months. As with any new product, do a small patch test first and check with your pediatrician if you have any concerns.
What if my skin is very easily irritated?
The balm was made for exactly that. To be safe, apply a pea-sized amount to your inner forearm daily for 2 days before wider use. If your skin reacts, send it back for a full refund.
What does it smell like?
Fresh and clean, thanks to the lavender and tea tree oils. There is no added fragrance. The scent comes only from the ingredients themselves.
Where is it made?
Derma Root is a family-owned American brand. The balm is produced in small batches in the USA in an FDA-registered facility, and every order ships from New York.
How long does shipping take?
Orders placed Monday through Friday ship within 1 business day from New York. Standard US shipping takes 2 to 5 business days; international shipping takes 7 to 12 business days. Shipping on single jars is calculated at checkout from your address (typically a few dollars via USPS). Bundles and subscriptions ship free.
How do refunds actually work?
Email support@dermaroot.com within 90 days of your order and we'll refund you in full. You don't need the jar to be unused; the guarantee exists so you can actually try it.
Is beeswax safe for babies? I thought honey was dangerous for infants.
Beeswax is completely different from honey. It's the structural wax bees build their comb from and it does not carry the botulism spores that can be present in raw honey. It's considered safe for infants on the skin. (Honey itself is never an ingredient in our balm.)
Why emu oil?
Emu oil is one of the most deeply moisturizing oils in nature. It absorbs quickly and carries the other ingredients into the skin rather than sitting on top like petroleum. It's also the reason few products like this exist: it costs far more than the mineral oils most brands use. We built the whole formula around it anyway, because it's what we wanted for our own skin.
Is it safe during pregnancy?
The balm contains lavender, tea tree, and sweet orange essential oils. Most people use it without issue, but if you're pregnant or nursing, we recommend checking with your doctor first. That's the honest answer.
