HayMax Aloe Vera Organic Pollen Barrier Balm (5ml)

Product Summary

• Organic, drug-free pollen barrier balm made from natural ingredients
• Provides support for hay fever and allergy sufferers
• 80% of people found relief by using HayMax Aloe Vera Balm

Many sufferers of hay fever, allergic rhinitis and pollen and dust or pet allergies struggle to find a solution when symptoms appear.

For hay fever sufferers, the summer months can be a particularly difficult time when pollen levels are high.

On the other hand, allergic rhinitis and other allergies can cause discomfort all year round.

Symptoms include sneezing, runny or blocked nose, and itchy eyes.

HayMax is an organic, drug-free, pollen barrier balm to help bring relief from these symptoms.

Made from natural ingredients, trials have proven that this award-winning balm helps trap pollen, dust mite droppings and animal dander.

When applied to the nostrils, it traps a proportion of the allergen which would otherwise travel up the nasal tract, where it then causes the reactions.

The balm works under the principle that if enough is trapped, this will keep you below your sensitivity or trigger level so the reactions for that allergen will not be triggered.

Directions

• For both adults and children: Apply small amount at the bottom of nostrils. Re-apply regularly or when needed.
• Some people find one application in the morning is enough, others apply every two hours.
• No maximum: like a lip balm, one pot lasts for ages, however much you use it.

Soil Association certified Organic Sunflower Oil, Soil Association certified Beeswax, Soil Association certified Aloe Vera Leaf Juice Powder

Pharmacist FAQs Answered

Is HayMax compatible with nasal sprays and antihistamines?

Yes, HayMax is safe to use alongside other hay fever and allergy medications, such as antihistamines or steroid nasal sprays. As it contains no drugs and works by forming a physical barrier rather than being absorbed into your bloodstream, there is no possibility of interaction. In reality, most people treat HayMax as an extra layer of defence, especially during high allergy seasons, to reduce overall allergen exposure.

How early should one start using HayMax before the allergy season?

It's a good idea to plan to start using HayMax a few weeks before the pollen season begins—early spring, generally speaking, by the way. That establishes a routine and reduces the amount of pollen your body is exposed to initially, which may help prevent symptoms later. Even if you wait until symptoms appear, it will still reduce the amount of allergen that reaches your nose.

Can HayMax help soothe nighttime allergy symptoms?

Yes, HayMax can help soothe nighttime allergy symptoms, especially if allergens like pollen or animal dander get into your bedroom. Apply the balm in the evening to trap allergens that can disrupt sleep. It can be useful for users who have pets in the bedroom or leave their windows open.

Is HayMax safe to use for asthma or eczema sufferers?

HayMax is safe for most people with asthma or eczema, as it's drug-free and contains soft, organic ingredients. Nevertheless, it's always advisable to talk to a pharmacist or doctor if the symptoms are severe. The balm does not treat asthma, but it can reduce one of the triggers—like pollen—of asthma.

Does HayMax work on all types of pollen and airborne allergens?

HayMax has been designed to target various airborne allergens, including tree pollen, grass pollen, dust mites, and animal dander. Its effectiveness will vary from individual to individual based on the severity of their allergy and how often it is applied. Reapplying daily, especially before venturing outside, provides an optimal opportunity to reduce contact with allergens.

How do I store HayMax, and how long does it last?

Store HayMax in a cool, dry place out of sunlight. One pot will last weeks or even months, depending on how often you use it. As it is a balm, it doesn't have a rapid expiry date, but do look on the packet for a "best before" and stop using if it smells strange or goes weird.

Is HayMax vegan or suitable for those with bee product allergies?

HayMax contains beeswax, so it is unsuitable for vegans or individuals with a proven allergy to bee products. If you're looking for a vegan product, browsing the full range might be worth it, as some companies offer different formulas. Always check the label and consult a pharmacist if you're unsure.
