The key difference and benefit for this balm is that it is extra moisturizing and emollient. The high concentration of oils in Olive Oil Rescue Balm Gel provides a protective barrier on broken skin (particularly common during eczema) to keep moisture in and irritants out. According to the National Eczema Association, this protective layer allows eczema skin to heal and become more resistant to symptoms, including burning, dryness and itch.


Keeping wounds well moisturized with Olive Oil Rescue Balm Gel also helps to prevent scabbing and future scarring. 


Olive Oil Balm Gel can also help minimize the appearance of scars. The blend of oils- Sweet Almond Oil & Cold-pressed Olive Oil are high in antioxidants to aid in skin regeneration and reduce scarring. Do note to use it on fresh scars for best results.

Olive & Caper Rescue Balm Gel

Olive & Caper Rescue Balm Gel has a fast-acting formula that is clinically proven to reduce irritation and redness within 60 seconds. 


Eczema flare-ups are commonly driven by the 'itch-scratch cycle.' In this process, the sensation of itching prompts scratching, which then triggers the release of inflammatory mediators. This leads to the onset of eczema and further drying of the skin. The resulting dryness and eczema exacerbate the itch, perpetuating a continuous cycle. By providing comfort and relief with Olive & Caper Balm Gel at the start of itch-scratch cycle, we may potentially reduce eczema flare-ups. 


During the acute stages of eczema, intense itching may happen. This itching, if not well managed, can cause further skin damage and possible infections. Olive & Caper Rescue Balm Gel may come in handy to reduce the itch and provide comfort to any forms of irritation associated with the eczema.


Olive & Caper Rescue Balm Gel can also be used for itchy bug bites, minor cuts, injuries that itch, sting or irritate.


Final Thoughts

Both Rescue Balm Gels offer care for different skin concerns and provide relief for each stage of eczema. Which balm gel to choose will be dependent on your exact condition and stage of eczema. It can be handy to keep both balm gels on hand if there is a history of eczema or sensitive skin to provide well-rounded healing and protection.
