Nose Care Routine (60–90 seconds)

1) Clean
Warm, damp cloth to soften crust. Pat dry. No soap in nostrils.
2) Balm
Swipe Nose Balm across the dry zones. Thin, even layer beats gobs.
3) Set
Let it sit 1–2 minutes. Distract with a treat if your pro licker shows up.
4) Re-apply
2–3× daily until soft; then 1× daily for maintenance.
5) Sun & Wind
Before adventures, add a quick protective swipe.
When to call the vet
Bleeding cracks, infection, pigment loss, or persistent sores.

Tip: Use TheraMud™ only on surrounding flaky patches—never inside the nostrils.

Why it works (behavior > theory)

Barrier that breathes

Beeswax + lanolin create a breathable shield that keeps moisture in and wind out—without greasy mess.

Hydrate + nourish

Organic sunflower, coconut, and avocado oils deliver fast softness. Vitamin E backs skin recovery.

Calm the cranky

Calendula and rosemary extracts are nose-friendly botanicals that play nice with daily use.

Routine beats heroics. A tiny, repeatable swipe twice a day outperforms “fix-it-all-at-once” goops.
