How you use it
How you use it
Suitable for all skin types and areas. Use little and often on clean skin-we find it goes three times as far as your average store bought cream.
It is very important that you use the Balm regularly in order to achieve desired results. Initially, you may need to apply multiple times a day. As your skin repairs itself, your need to apply will naturally lessen.
As this Balm is nearly entirely comprised of natural, unrefined botanical butters and oils, variations in colour, texture and scent are normal.
It must be kept cool and away from sunlight and heat sources or it will melt. If allowed to melt, some separation may occur and this can lead to a grainy texture. This in no way harms the product or its efficacy. It can be used as is or you can gently heat it in a water bath until the oils are fully melted, stir and move to a refrigerator to reset.

What is the difference between Rescue Balm and Rescue Cream?
What is the difference between Rescue Balm and Rescue Cream?
Our Rescue Balm is comprised almost entirely of botanical oils and butters whereas our Rescue Cream is a traditional water based moisturiser. While they share similar ingredients and the same level of actives, they are two very different products with the Balm offering a significantly higher level of hydration and protection.
Additionally, our Rescue Balm contains no added fragrance or essential oils while our Rescue Cream has been scented with lemongrass essential oil.
For moderate to severe cases, we always recommend starting with the Balm with the option to transition to the Cream to maintain your result. Less severe cases can go straight to the Cream if its their preferred texture.
As always, we suggest those with sensitive skin start with a trial size and perform a patch test before commiting to a full size purchase, even when transitioning from the Balm to the Cream

We know what its like to struggle with severe skin conditions.
Thunderbird Skin was founded by a mother and daughter team and born of a need to resolve our own debilitating 18 year battle with eczema that included hospital visits and sepsis battles.
This led to the creation of our Rescue Balm and has grown to a 2500 square foot studio and an award winning line of products that are sold in over 24 countries.
We scour the globe for the highest quality botanical ingredients from sustainable sources supporting female led grower's cooperatives worldwide.
Inspired by nature's ability to heal, we ensure every ingredient within our formulations has a specific purpose and is backed by science. The result? Highly active, concentrated and efficient products that can actually deliver the results promised.
Why do our products succeed in calming chronic skin conditions when so many others fail?
Simply put, we use better ingredients.
Our formulations are a base of renewal promoting botanicals to which we add clinically proven naturally derived active ingredients.
In the simplest terms, we don’t guesstimate how much vitamin was in a plant when the oils were extracted. Because we used actives, we know what’s there ensuring your skin gets what it really needs.
Customer Reviews
Cannot believe the results - just three days in and the difference is unbelievable. So pleased to FINALLY have found something that works for my eczema, after years of looking! Have already told anyone who’ll listen how fantastic it is, so thought I’d do it on the website too ahah
I developed really itchy and sore menopausal eczema on my décolletage and neck and I didn’t want to keep using hydrocortisone cream - thunderbird products were amazing and after 2 weeks the dry scaly skin was gone! Highly recommend!!!
Reduced the irrigation
I don't suffer from chronic skin conditions, but my skin is sensitive enough to make life annoying. I've been using this cream for the past year or so and in that time I've had no issues with my skin. No flare ups and not even any niggles. Then to save money I thought I would try a high street brand that was specifically aimed at sensitive skin. I know... I know... I persevered for a week but in that time my skin flared up, became dry and I was constantly itching. So with my tail firmly wedged between my legs, I returned to this. After only two uses my skin was back to normal. Lesson learnt. It's brilliant.
Every now and again my neck breaks out into a sore, itchy red patch, despite not having eczema or psoriasis? The incessant itch drives me crazy, and the ugly red patch front, centre and side of my neck is ugly as ****! Prescription strength Hydrocortisone ointment wouldn’t shift it or alleviate the itchiness - so in desperation, I bought this (wary of course as I NEVER buy owt advertised on any social media platform. But I had the safety net of paying via my PayPal). It arrived 2 days later - and iv used it for three days now.
Right away, I felt the angry itch calm down a good bit and this morning, the ugly red patch on my neck is all but gone.
I don’t usually fill in reviews (probs cos I never buy owt online) - but everyone with any skin affliction must try this wee tin of green gold.
I did take before and after photos to show yous how genuinely amazing it is and that it does work - and an almost empty tube of the useless Hydrocortisone cream, which I used in the hope it would work - but it never.
If you have any kind of red, itchy, scaly skin which is driving you nuts, please try this balm. And a very little goes a long way. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had used everything on my neck , it was like it was burning , raw red and inflamed . I thought things like this never happens but I received the rescue balm and applied it and within that day and since then my neck is healing , and feels nourished . No more itching , no burning , it’s feels moisturised and calm and still does , I will be ordering more
