StomaEase™ BarrierBalm™ was developed by chemist and feeding tube patient Jasmine Sturr, whom you may also know as the creator of StomaEase™.
Jasmine first created BarrierBalm™ to help her neighbor’s daughter, a toddler born with a cleft palate who required multiple surgeries. During her recovery, the child needed months of antibiotics, which led to a severe and persistent diaper rash.
Jasmine’s first formulation made an immediate difference. Seeing the impact it had, she realized there was a broader need for this kind of carefully formulated skin protection.
As a Tubie herself, Jasmine had seen many patients turn to traditional diaper rash creams to manage irritation around feeding tubes, with limited success. She believed there could be a better solution for those experiencing severe skin irritation around stomas, wounds, and other sensitive areas.
We proudly support the Oley Foundation and encourage patients to learn more about their important resources and services.
