PSA: Moringa Seed Oil is one of those oils that can go semi solid when it is cold.
Don't be too concerned if your Moringa Healing Serum looks a slightly different (lighter) colour today or if it looks like there is separation in the bottle.
It's some of the lipids solidifying in the colder weather.
This also happens in transit sometimes when the bottle sits overnight in an uninsulated warehouse on a cold night.
Just loosen the lid and zap for about 30 - 40 seconds in the microwave, tighten the lid again (make sure it's really tight) and shake.
Also please be aware that sensitised skin may flare in sudden climate changes. Just increase your application frequency in the immediate term. It shouldn't take long to calm it.
Image generated by AI, but this is what the sediment at the bottom of each drum looks like when it's cold. It's kind of a mushy texture. We warm it to liquify and blend it in during the production process.
This is the part that gives the richest healing so don't leave it at the bottom of the bottle.
Great for gut health (which means helping itchy skin), Chia Seed Pudding with cocoa, coconut milk, water, moringa powder... whatever you have.
I use blackcurrant powder that I get from Viberi and I usually add yoghurt on the top.
Add honey to sweeten, but banana on top works too.
Leave in the fridge for a few hours or overnight.
Amazing breakfast that will keep you full to mid afternoon - I often have this for a midday meal to avoid bread.
Chia seed to liquid ration is around 1:4.
Which one are you going to choose, assuming both address itchy skin (which they do).
No brainer when you understand that steroids switch off the immune response without addressing what the issue is - and they make the problem worse if not used short term only.

How does it work?
Good question.
In addition to providing hydration to the skin, Rapid Hydration has key ingredient Gotu Kola, which stimulates your skin to create its OWN hydration in the dermis.
Most ingredients that do this cause exfoliation, which is not an option for people with thin, compromised skin...
Gotu Kola is used in Arurvedic medicine to heal wounds and soothe eczema (which is how it got my attention).
Chinese traditional medicine uses Gotu Kola for reduction of what they call 'internal heat'.
Western Medicine knows nothing of Gotu Kola. We just have steroids.
A disappointing situation.
In this product, we include other hydrators for immediate relief and fenugreek extract to help support a healthy lipid barrier.
Nailed the breathing part at least. In and out. All day. 👏
Short weeks... not so much with the slowing down...

Two of the new Baliba 'MoveWell' products about to be made available:
Joint Warming Lotion (for people with arthritis) and Cool Down Gel (for people with acute injury related inflammation).
There are a couple more products also in progress for this range. I'll let you know more soon.
Often itchy scalp and falling-out hair happen at the same time.
It's because your scalp skin is not in optimal health - hair isn't getting nutrients, skin lacks lipid protection and hydration.
It comes right when you get the right products on it.
I also recommend either Moringa Healing Serum or Scalp Serum for itchy scalps. Both work on scalps, but Scalp Serum is optimum. I just brought it back along with Moringa Healing Shampoo.
For hair growth & volume once the scalp has been restored to better health, Hiar Reovery Serum works well. It feeds the scalp while also blocked DHT hormone (the one that causes male pattern baldness... a poorly named condition because women get this also).
Happy long weekend.
Hopefully this makes sense...
The skin healing process involves stages.
First you work on the skin's own protection function - the lipid barrier (which locks lydration in & protects your body) and the skin's structural integrity.
Then you work on improving hydration in mid layers (produced in lower skin layers & not as effectively without structural integrity).
Once that's all looking stronger, you look at maintenance regimes.
It takes time but it does work.
We just added a new set to the site yesterday with all 3 of these products in... Rapid Hydration Starter Set.
I was surprised when a friend messaged me that she had moved and had come across the sample bottle of Moringa Healing Shampoo I had sent her a long time ago...
The message was words along the lines of 'It's a miracle. My head is almost not itchy after only a week. I've tried EVERYTHING and nothing has worked like this'.
So I decided to bring back the Healing Shampoo. With a bit of an upgrade in the sudsing (all natural of course) and a definite upgrade in the label...
Then I looked at the Serum, changed that out a bit too, to be more suited to itchy scalps & put those two togther with Hair Recovery Mist for thinning and falling out hair et voila - just like that, it's a fabulous hair care range that I'm really proud of.

Moringa Healing Salve - I usually recommend this for babies, for areas that are in a location you can't see - finding by touch is easier and for faces.
There aren't so many moringa leaves around at this time of year... this is definitely a great alternative.
I find it better than tallow based Moringa Barrier Repair personally in terms of maintaining barrier protection and often recommend it be used alongside Moringa Healing Serum + use of cotton gloves when the area of concern is the hands because hands get a battering and have thin skin.
