Targeted Relief for Active Eczema and Angry Skin
When eczema flares, skin requires immediate, potent intervention to break the cycle of itching and irritation. Indigo Blue Ointment is our definitive solution for active Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis), specifically formulated to address the intense discomfort of red, flaky, itchy, and burning lesions.
Whether you are dealing with raised red bumps (papules) or general inflammation, this ointment serves as a powerful ally. It bridges the gap between the profound herbal wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and modern dermatological science to bring calm to chaotic skin.
Potent Botanical Intervention
We have crafted this formula to address the root patterns of distress in the skin. By combining specific herbs known for their cooling properties with barrier-repairing minerals, Indigo Blue Ointment offers a multi-layered approach to healing.
Why it works:
- Cools Inflammation: Phellodendron Bark (Huang Bai) and Woad Extract (Qing Dai) work synergistically to cool inflamed skin, reducing the sensation of heat and burning.
- Restores Balance: Key botanicals assist in balancing the skin microbiome, which is often disrupted during eczema flares.
- Soothes and Protects: A blend of Zinc Oxide and Calcium Sulfate (Shi Gao) calms active inflammation while helping to restore the skin's natural protective barrier.
- Deep Nourishment: An Organic Shea Butter base ensures the skin receives vital moisture without trapping heat.
A Fusion of Herbal Traditions
In the language of Traditional Chinese Medicine, active eczema is often characterized by "heat," "dampness," and "wind." This ointment is expertly formulated to clear heat and toxin, cool the blood, clear damp heat, and resolve wind. It harnesses the historical power of "Shi Gao," a naturally occurring mineral used for centuries to clear intense heat, alongside Western functional ingredients to provide comprehensive relief.
How to Use
This versatile ointment can be used alone or layered with other products depending on the nature of your flare-up.
- Standard Application: Apply a thin layer to the affected area 3-5 times per day.
- For Weeping Lesions: If the skin is weeping significantly, we recommend combining this with our Goldthread Wash or Honeysuckle Wash. Use the wash first, pat dry, then apply the ointment.
- For Dry, Flaky Eczema: If the lesions are purely dry and flaky, apply our Pink Cream first to hydrate, followed by the Indigo Blue Ointment to seal and treat.
