Science-Driven Microbiome Balm for Compromised Skin Barrier
MB-2 Probiotic Occlusive Balm is a moisture-sealing balm formulated to nurture and protect skin that is compromised, irritated, or sensitive. By delivering five live strains of symbiotic bacteria directly to the skin’s surface, it works to rebalance the microbiome and reduce visible redness, dryness, and irritation. The water-free, preservative-free formula creates a protective “second skin” barrier that helps lock in hydration and shield against external stressors. Upon application, the balm spreads smoothly, forming a comforting occlusive layer that leaves skin feeling soft and supported yet not greasy.
MB-2 is ideal for sensitive, reactive, or compromised skin — including conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, radiation dermatitis, perioral dermatitis, or open wounds. Because it is both water- and petroleum-free, it avoids typical irritants and preservatives, making it a safe choice post-procedure or during recovery. Its unique probiotic blend supports barrier repair and long-term skin resilience, helping skin adapt and recover while reducing the need for more aggressive interventions. Whether used nightly or as-needed, MB-2 offers a science-based balm for maintaining comfort and barrier health.
- Who it’s best for: Sensitive, compromised, or reactive skin (eczema, dermatitis, barrier-impaired skin, post-procedure, radiation-affected skin)
- What makes it different: Combines five live probiotic strains with a clean, preservative-free occlusive base to support microbiome balance and barrier integrity.
Due to manufacturer updates, packaging may vary from the image shown. Please note the product formulation remains the same.

How To Use MB-2 Probiotic Occlusive Balm
- Dispense a small amount into clean hands.
- Dab gently onto the skin — apply as the final step if layering multiple products. Avoid direct contact with eyes.
- Use as needed on compromised or dry areas, or daily for ongoing barrier support.
Pro Tip (from estheticians): Wait until all other skincare products are fully absorbed before applying MB-2 — this helps protect the live probiotics from being disrupted by preservatives in other formulas.

FAQs
Can I use this while pregnant or nursing?
NeoGenesis does not provide explicit guidance for pregnancy or nursing use — consult your physician for personalized advice.
Can I use this with retinol/retinal/acid exfoliants?
Yes — since MB-2 is an occlusive balm, it can be applied as the last step of your routine after actives, helping seal in moisture and support barrier recovery.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes — the water- and petroleum-free, preservative-free formula and live probiotic content make it especially suited for sensitive, reactive, or compromised skin. Apply as needed or nightly for barrier support.

People Also Ask
Is MB-2 Probiotic Occlusive Balm good for eczema-prone skin?
Yes — MB-2’s barrier-supportive, microbiome-balancing formula is particularly beneficial for eczema-prone or barrier-impaired skin.
Can you use MB-2 every day?
Yes — it can be used daily or as needed to maintain hydration, comfort, and barrier integrity.
Does MB-2 work under makeup?
Because MB-2 creates an occlusive barrier and may feel slightly textured initially, it's best used at night or under minimal makeup; allow balm to absorb before applying makeup.

That depends on usage and coverage. For targeted spot use or barrier repair, a single jar may last several weeks; if used daily over larger facial areas, it will deplete faster.
