Baraka Dry Nose Nasal Moisturizer

We live in the mountains of Colorado, where the air is thin and always dry, but especially in winter. Keeping my nasal passages moist in this environment is a challenge- I've tried all sorts of petroleum jelly and natural gel combos to swab in my nose with mixed, mostly disappointing results. They may work for a bit but they always result in an unpleasant drip down my throat, and they taste nasty. Found this product recommended by others on here and gave it a try- it's hands down the best thing I've ever used for this issue. A couple quick swabs in the morning (after breathing in some steam from my portable steamer), and it almost feels like I'm living in Florida!! OK well, maybe not that moist, but waaaaay better than anything else I've tried. I find the oil scent pleasant, and the moisture lasts a long time with virtually no nasal drip. I use it a couple times throughout the day as needed. This one is a keeper, highly recommended to try it if you have a dry nose problem.

Okay, I freaking love this stuff! I’ve literally had a wound inside my nose for over 10 years, and I was beginning to think something was seriously wrong with me. I live in a dry, high-elevation mountain area, and the only time my nose ever healed was when I visited the ocean. I finally brought it up (a little embarrassed) with my friend who is a nurse practitioner. I even wondered if maybe I had some weird picking problem, because every single day I was dealing with jagged scab-boogers. I’d blow my nose so hard and so often just trying to keep things clean, but it always dried out again and scabbed over. My friend reassured me that it wasn’t just me—she has the same problem and said it’s common with age and living at high elevation. She gave me a few recommendations, but I have to say this product works the best out of everything! I use Baraka Dry Nose Oil twice a day—before bed and again first thing in the morning. It’s a great value because a little goes a long way! You can use the stopper dropper to drop in a couple drops, but I like applying it with a q-tip so I can hit that one specific dry spot. On extra dry days, I also love Maty’s Simply Breathe Nasal Ointment. It has a thicker texture that really coats and soothes. Honestly, I love it even more than Ayr Nasal Gel because it doesn’t burn/sting. Instead, it calms my dry nasal passages and even helps me breathe easier. Vaseline is great but it never really absorbed into my nasal septum and I really needed the moisture. This stuff moisturizes my nasal passages something that Vaseline just wasn’t cutting. Now I rotate between all three products—Baraka Dry Nose Oil and Maty’s Ointment twice per day morning and night, and Ayr Gel as needed throughout the day because it’s inexpensive. After over a decade of dealing with this nonstop wound in my nose, it’s finally healing beautifully. It honestly feels like a miracle!

These nose drops work very well to just keep moisturized. They are not medicated and non-habit forming. Essential oils just make it easier to breathe, especially in hot dry climates like where I live in Utah. The scent is different, but not unpleasant. It doesn't take more than a week to get used to, and the results of using the drops are worth it. The dry nose drops are not for allergy relief, that's a different product. When bottle is new, the dropper starts out full and the liquid drips out very quickly, so be careful not to waste it. A little goes a long way. The thickness or viscosity is, I would say, similar to olive oil. After washing my hands and face, morning and night, I use one drop on my little finger to insert in each nostril. That way I'm not using up cotton swabs, and also the same bottle can be used by others if desired. Saves money that way. Small bottle, but lasts about 3 months for just one person, if used twice daily like I do. Prevents nosebleeds that come from having dry nasal passages, and cuts down on catching colds as well. The glass bottled product came very securely wrapped inside a larger package with another item I ordered. No leaking/breakage. Would order from Amazon again. Highly recommend, better than Vaseline, which can get goopy and started irritating my nose after about a year . I've used Baraka dry nose drops for about a decade, I think. No need to look for a different product.

Good product though not quite enough for my uber dry winter sinuses.

I love this product great for dry areas while traveling.

Great product for dry, even stuffy noses. Easy to use (I place drops on a Q-tip and swab the inside of my nose). Fast relief! Great to use in arid climates, in dry indoors areas (i.e. around heaters/dry air inside the home). Great for use for airplane travel (although you may have to transfer to a smaller, dropper bottle).

This will be very irritating for some people. Even before using or opening the package all the way I can smell the herbal scent and the oil. My entire nostril is already raw and sore from the dry air and chronic sinus infection. The smell of this unopen bottle in the wrap package made it hurt more so. I had to throw it out in the outside trash to prevent a nosebleed.

I live in a house with forced hot air heating and during the winter this can be brutal on your nasal passages. This is mix of essential oils helps to sooth irritation and keep you passages moist. It does the job, but leaves a very funny smell in your nose, and the PH seems to be off a bit (it stings a little). The nose-drop approach was not very convenient, so I transferred the product to a spray bottle where it worked better. Overall, while it did work, the mild irritation and lack of a sprayer turned me off from ordering again. I think this would be much better if it were packaged in a nasal spray bottle, as this would reduce the products propensity to drip out of your nose after use. If you've got dry sinuses this is worth a shot. There's other products out there as well and you just need to try them to see if they work for you.
