The tree of life

Africa's 2,500-year-old
skincare secret.

If your dog scratches all night, drops fur in handfuls, or carries a dull, flaky coat and cracked, dry paws and nose, you are watching that inflammatory baseline surface — the same itchy skin, hot-spots and monsoon funk that come back every wet season. This is the natural, single-source fix built for exactly that: calm the skin, rebuild the coat, seal the cracks.

The African baobab — Adansonia digitata — is the oldest flowering tree on the planet. Verified specimens are over 2,450 years old. African indigenous medicine has used its bark, leaves, fruit, and seed oil for skin healing, gut health, antimicrobial care and 300+ documented uses for as long as anyone has been writing those uses down.

Every part of the baobab is useful. The seeds are cold-pressed for skin oil — Omega 3, 6, 9 alongside Vitamins A, D, E. The fruit pulp is a Vitamin-C powerhouse, six times denser than oranges. The bark, leaves, and roots feature in 300+ documented African medicinal uses. Centuries before any of this entered a Western lab, indigenous medicine was using every part of the tree for skin, gut, and immunity.

We import baobab directly from the source. Different products in our range use different parts of the tree — seed oil for the healing oil and balm, fruit powder for the therapy mask. We don't blend, dilute, or fragrance any of it. Every grooming product is built on the same lineage — different parts, same root.

What's inside

Four ingredients.
Zero chemicals.

Vaseline and petroleum jelly sit on the surface and create a temporary film. They don't repair anything. We use four organic ingredients that actually do work — penetrate, repair, protect, seal — in that order.

01 The healer

Baobab Oil (Adansonia digitata)

From the seeds of the African baobab tree. Omega 3, 6 & 9 fatty acids, Vitamins A, D & E, and antioxidants. Penetrates deep and repairs cracked skin from within. Used in African indigenous skincare for centuries — the oldest ingredient in the formula by 2,000+ years.

02 The barrier

Shea Butter

Rich, creamy emollient. Locks in moisture and creates a protective barrier on the skin's surface. Anti-inflammatory and healing — soothes irritated pad pads and noses. Reduces scarring from old cracks over time.

03 The summer fix

Mango Butter

Lightweight but deeply nourishing. Vitamin A and E rich. Restores skin elasticity without clogging pores. Perfect for Indian summers when paw pads take the most heat from burning pavement — absorbs fast, no greasy residue.

04 The seal

Beeswax

Nature's sealant. Locks all the goodness in while creating a breathable protective barrier. Shields paws and noses from hot pavement, cold floors, monsoon damp. Also gives the balm its smooth, easy-to-apply stick format.

What it does

A stick that earns its place.

Four organic ingredients that penetrate, repair, protect, and seal — in that order. Here is the climb.

Repairs from within

Penetrates cracked pads and snouts instead of sitting on top like petroleum jelly.

Seasonal protection

A breathable barrier against hot pavement, cold floors, and monsoon damp.

Locks moisture in

Shea and beeswax seal the repair so soft pads stay soft between applications.

Lick-safe, no petroleum

Four organic ingredients, zero chemicals — safe when your dog licks its paws.

The proof

Cracked.
Then not.

Real customer cases. Mild dryness softens in 2-3 days; severely cracked pads heal in 7-10.

Before · Day 1 Before
After · Day 7 After
Cracked summer pads Daily application before bedtime. Visible change in 7 days.

Daily routine

Twist the stick.
Done.

Daily maintenance

Once before bed

Apply a small amount to clean paws or nose. Massage gently until absorbed. Bedtime works because your dog is resting — maximum absorption, minimum lick-off.

Summer / hot pavement

Before AND after walks

Apply before the walk as a protective layer; reapply after to repair any damage. Indian pavement in May/June is brutal on paw pads — this is the seasonal play.

Winter / dry season

Twice daily

Morning + bedtime. Indoor heating and dry winter air pull moisture out of pads and snouts. The balm puts it back, keeps it there.

Severely cracked

3x daily, first week

If the pads are bleeding or peeling: three times daily for the first week, then drop to once daily for maintenance. Don't apply to actively bleeding open wounds — let those scab first.

Bangalore · Pebble, 7 yr Bulldog

“Pebble's hyperkeratosis nose was crusty and uncomfortable. Two weeks of this and his nose is glossy black again. The bulldog community is going to love this.”

Rohan B..

Mumbai · Tony, 4 yr Indie

“Switched from Vaseline (which Tony kept licking off) to this. Lick-safe means I'm not stressed when he licks his paws. Cracked pads from monsoon walks healed in 10 days.”

Real questions, real answers

The stuff dog parents actually ask us.

Is the balm safe if my dog licks it?

Absolutely. Every ingredient — baobab oil, shea butter, mango butter, beeswax — is natural and lick-safe. Zero chemicals, zero toxins, zero petroleum.

How is this different from Vaseline?

Vaseline is petroleum-based — it sits on the surface and creates a temporary film but doesn't repair or nourish. It's also not safe if licked. Our balm uses organic plant butters and oils that penetrate, repair from within, and are completely lick-safe.

How long before I see results?

Mildly dry noses and pads soften in 2-3 days of daily use. Severely cracked or peeling pads usually show significant improvement in 7-10 days. Results vary per pet.

Can I use it on cats?

Yes. The balm contains no essential oils — safe for cats. Same routine works.

Can I use it on puppies?

Yes, gentle enough for puppies above 8 weeks. Patch-test on one paw first and observe for 24 hours before regular use.

Can I use it on other dry areas — like elbows?

Yes. Formulated for paws and noses but works on dry elbows, calluses, any rough or cracked skin patch.

How long does one stick last?

A 10g stick lasts 4-6 weeks with daily use on a medium-sized dog. Larger breeds or more frequent application: 2-3 weeks.

How should I store it?

Cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Lid tightly closed to maintain freshness. Best before 9 months from the date of manufacture.

The grooming bench

Catalogued like a herbarium, not a shelf.

The same hand catalogues every grooming product. Pair the balm with its shelf-mates from the Tree of Life range.

12 reviews for Baobab Therapy Mask

  1. Charu N. (verified owner)

    Powder was slightly clumpy in one batch (humidity I think). Mixed fine eventually. Otherwise good product.

  2. Tanay K. (verified owner)

    Application takes 10 mins. Powder is easy to mix into a paste. Dog tolerates it because she likes the smell apparently.

  3. Mansi D. (verified owner)

    Two indies, both seasonal scratchers. The mask + baobab oil routine has made monsoon manageable for the first time.

  4. Pankaj W. (verified owner)

    Works well. Application is a bit messy if you have a wriggly dog. Pre-bath setup helps. Worth the effort once you get the routine.

  5. Ritika Malhotra (verified owner)

    Arrey finally someone made a proper hair mask for dogs!! My shih tzu’s coat used to be like jhaadu after bath no matter what conditioner I tried. Applied this left for 15 min and rinsed. The coat came out SO silky I couldn’t stop touching her. Already told all my dog mom friends. Must buy for long coat breeds.

  6. Arun Menon (verified owner)

    Using this along with the baobab oil now. Oil after bath for daily grooming and this mask during bath once a week. My golden retriever literally looks like those show dogs on youtube. People stop us on walks to ask kya karte ho coat ke liye. This combo is unreal.

  7. Vikram S. (verified owner)

    Senior cocker spaniel with sensitive skin. Most shampoos make him scratch more. The clay-based mask actually calms his skin down post-bath.

  8. Sameer Joshi (verified owner)

    Was spending 1800 per grooming session every 2 weeks because my cockers coat was impossible to manage at home. Started using this mask and now I groom him myself. Coat quality is BETTER than what the salon was giving. Saving 3600/month easy. Product pays for itself.

  9. Sneha Pillai (verified owner)

    Husky undercoat is a different beast altogether. This mask definitely makes the fur softer and more manageable after bath but I need to use almost half the jar per session because theres just SO much fur. Amazing product but need a bigger tub for giant breeds. Please make 500gm option.

  10. Deepali Menon (verified owner)

    Double coat breed parents listen up. This mask during bath + proper blowdry after = zero matting for almost a whole week. I used to dread brushing sessions but now its actually enjoyable. The coat stays detangled SO much longer. Revolutionary for high maintenance coats.

  11. Eshita M. (verified owner)

    I appreciate that there’s no fragrance or sulphates. Just the natural ingredients listed. My pug’s ear infection issue eased after 2 weeks.

  12. Prerna Jain (verified owner)

    Game changer for curly coat breeds. My poodle’s curls were always frizzy and tangled after bath. This mask defines the curls properly and they stay bouncy for days. No other dog conditioner in India comes close to this. Tried Wahl tried Bio-Groom tried everything. This wins.

  13. Vikram Choudhary (verified owner)

    My spitz had that dry straw like texture after monsoon. Tried this mask on a friends suggestion and sach mein the coat transformed in one wash. Soft fluffy and the shedding also reduced noticeably. Natural product no chemicals no fragrance bombs. Exactly what I wanted.

  14. Meera Deshmukh (verified owner)

    Groomer told me to try some imported mask costing 2500rs. Instead ordered this for much less and honestly the results are same or better. Deep conditioning without weighing down the coat. My shih tzu’s fur has this natural flow now that it never had before. 10/10 recommend.

  15. Niharika P. (verified owner)

    Allergy season is the worst for our lab. Mask once a week has cut her itch-scratch cycle by easily 70%. We’re hooked.

  16. Mihir R. (verified owner)

    Smelled herbal not artificial when I opened it. Good sign. Skin felt notably softer after first use. Coat shinier within a week.

  17. Sheryl P. (verified owner)

    Vet had advised a clay rinse for fungal issues. This is the clay rinse, plus more. Two-issue solution in one product.

  18. Sahil J. (verified owner)

    Not a quick fix, takes 2-3 weeks of weekly use to see real change. But the change holds. Different from the temporary smelly-shampoo wins.
