In development · Intimate care
Diaper cream and petroleum jelly shouldn't be the best option.
A fragrance-free barrier balm and a soap-free wash for sensitive intimate skin. Made to sit alongside prescribed treatment for lichen sclerosus, never instead of it.
We've worked out what we'd make. We'll make it if enough people want it.
Goal: 150 backers to start production

Why the usual fixes fall short
Close, but not quite.
- Most people repurpose products made for babies or wounds
- Specialist balms are moisturizers, so they can't replace prescribed treatment
- Few products say clearly how to use them alongside a prescription
What we're working on
Gentle Barrier Balm
A fragrance-free barrier ointment and a soap-free wash, labeled with when to use them relative to prescribed treatment. A precision tube and discreet delivery.
Expected around US$25 for the balm and wash. Founding backers pay less.
What you'd get
- A fragrance-free barrier ointment in a precision tube, and a soap-free wash
- Use the wash instead of soap, then apply a thin layer of balm
- A clear guide to timing it around prescribed treatment, as your clinician advises
- Sent in plain, discreet packaging
Gentle Barrier Balm is a working name. The details may change as we develop it, and we'll only make it if enough people back it.
Our standards for it
- Fragrance-free, with a short, readable ingredient list
- We plan to work with a certified manufacturer, and we'll share details before launch
- Tested for safety and stability before anything ships
- Honest labels: comfort care only, no claims we can't back up
- Clear stance: it sits alongside your prescription and medical advice, never replaces it

Questions
Before you back it.
Am I charged anything?
No. Backing an idea is free, and we never ask for card details on this page. If it goes ahead, it's up to you whether you buy.
When would it ship?
Only if we reach 150 backers. If we do, we'll email backers with timing before anything goes on sale. If we don't, we won't make it.
Where will it be made?
By a certified manufacturer. We'll share who makes it, and where, before launch.
Can I change my mind?
Yes. Every email has an unsubscribe link, and backing doesn't commit you to buying anything.
Why back it now?
Founding backers get first access at the lowest price we'll offer, and your answers help decide what goes in it and what it costs.
