Nose to Toe-Beans™ | Nourishing + Protective Dog Balm

A water-free balm for dry noses, rough paw pads, and the scaly elbows nobody warned you about. Nose to Toe-Beans™ is a concentrated balm for the spots on a dog that dry out first: paw pads, noses, elbows, and the calloused patches in between. Organic avocado oil, hemp seed oil, and pumpkin seed oil do the conditioning, organic mango butter gives it body, and organic beeswax leaves a light barrier that slows moisture loss and buffers skin from cold, wind, and dry air. Dogs lick their paws, their noses, and each other, which is why we started this formula at the tongue and worked backwards to the tin instead of the other way around. No essential oils. No fragrance. No added water. Every ingredient had to earn its place twice, once for the skin and once for the inevitable taste test. It looks and smells exactly like what's in it. The olive green comes from the seed oils, not a dye, and the faint nutty scent is just hemp and pumpkin seed being themselves. And unlike a greasy salve, the texture is structured like a cream: it spreads thin, sinks in, and doesn't leave slick paw prints down the hallway (the floors thank you). "My test subjects live on our couch. Buddy turns 11 this September, and his elbows and pads get rougher every winter. Mazel is 5, all blue-eyed Aussie chaos, and she licks whatever I put on either of them. So I worked backwards from her tongue. No essential oils, no fragrance, no added water. Just oils and butters I trust on the two dogs I love most." — Emily Whitlock, Co-Founder & Formulator Why You'll Love The Nose to Toe-Beans™ Balm Sinks In, Not On: Structured like a balm-cream, it spreads thin and absorbs instead of sitting on top like wax. No slick residue. Built for the Taste Test: No essential oils, no fragrance, no added water. The formula assumes your dog will lick some off, because your dog will. A Barrier That Works Quietly: Organic beeswax and mango butter slow moisture loss and buffer dry pads from cold, wind, and dry air. Concentrated on Purpose: Water-free means every gram is active. A pea-sized amount covers a full set of paws. Honest to Look At: Olive green from the oils themselves, faintly nutty from the seeds. Nothing added to make it prettier. How to Use It Made to follow bath time with our Doggie Shampoo Bar. Towel your dog until the skin is just barely damp, then massage a small amount into pads, nose, elbows, or any rough patch; slightly damp skin helps the balm spread thin while the beeswax settles into its light barrier on top. Between baths, apply anytime to clean, dry skin. Start smaller than you think. A little covers a lot.
