Intensive moisture protection for dry, sensitive and compromised skin.
When skin feels tight, flaky or unusually reactive, it often needs more than another layer of moisturizer. NeoGenesis MB-2 Probiotic Balm delivers a comforting final layer of protection, helping seal in moisture while supporting the skin's natural barrier and microbiome.
Formulated with five live probiotic bacterial strains, this rich occlusive balm is designed to support the skin's microbiome while providing lasting moisture protection. Castor seed oil and hydrogenated castor seed oil help create a protective layer that limits moisture loss, while sunflower seed oil replenishes the skin with nourishing lipids.
Ideal for moderate to severe dryness, MB-2 is particularly suited to visibly stressed, sensitive or compromised skin, including skin experiencing dryness and discomfort during or following professional aesthetic treatments.

The Smukke Edit
When your skin needs a little less stimulation and a lot more comfort.
Not every skincare concern calls for another active ingredient. Sometimes, the most thoughtful approach is simply to protect what your skin already has.
NeoGenesis MB-2 is particularly appealing when skin feels persistently dry, delicate or overwhelmed by an elaborate routine. Its rich, protective texture makes it a beautiful finishing step, helping keep moisture where it belongs while giving sensitive skin a little extra care.
Our perspective: Think of MB-2 as your final protective layer, rather than another traditional moisturizer. Especially worthwhile when dryness, tightness and sensitivity become difficult to ignore.
