Tallow is a nutrient-dense fat rendered from beef, known for its moisturizing and healing properties. It is biocompatible with our skin, allowing it to absorb easily and replenish vital nutrients. It has been used in skincare for centuries for its effectiveness.
Absolutely. Our Unscented Balm is ideal for sensitive skin. Our Baby Balm is specifically formulated for the most delicate skin. All of our products are made without preservatives, chemicals, or artificial ingredients.
At the moment, we only ship within the United States. We are hoping to expand in the future. Stay tuned for updates!
Since our products are 100% natural with no artificial preservatives, we recommend using them within 12 months of opening for the best quality and effectiveness.
Yes. Our tallow is sourced from small, family-run farms that raise their cattle ethically and sustainably on open pastures.
Tallow is a natural ingredient, and like any unprocessed fat, its texture can vary depending on the temperature and environment during shipping or storage. Sometimes it sets silky smooth; other times, it may feel a bit firmer or softer. This is completely normal and does not affect the quality or effectiveness of the balm.
Yes, it is absolutely safe to use. While uncommon, the grainy or gritty texture can potentially occur when the balm is introduced to different temperatures and environments during shipping or storage, causing some of the natural fats to gently crystallize. It’s a harmless effect in natural skincare. Simply warm a small amount between your fingers—the grit will melt instantly and absorb beautifully into your skin.
Our balm is rich in nourishing fats and oils—because it’s designed to deeply moisturize and restore the skin’s natural barrier. If your skin feels oily, no worries, you likely used a little too much. A little goes a long way! Once absorbed, the balm leaves your skin feeling soft, balanced, and protected—not greasy.
Because our balm is made with 100% natural, chemical-free ingredients, it can soften or melt during shipping—especially in warmer weather or hotter regions. No need to worry. Just place the balm in a cool, dry area and let it return to room temperature before opening. Once it re-solidifies, it will work just as beautifully and maintain all of its skin-loving benefits.
Our balm has a shelf life of about 12–18 months when stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Because it's free of water and synthetic preservatives, it stays fresh naturally. Be sure to use clean hands when scooping from the jar to keep it in its best condition.
Although our ingredients are gentle, natural, and carefully selected, everyone’s skin is different. Some people may be sensitive to specific essential oils or ingredients. If you experience redness, itching, or irritation, stop using the balm and consult a healthcare professional. For those with very sensitive skin, we also offer an Unscented version without essential oils.
Because our balm is completely natural and free from stabilizers, it may soften or melt slightly during shipping — especially in warmer climates. Simply allow it to return to room temperature before use.
Occasionally, temperature fluctuations in transit may cause a grainy texture to appear.
Don’t worry — it’s still safe and effective.
To restore its smooth consistency:
Ensure the lid is removed.
Add ½ inch of water to a small pan and bring it to a simmer.
Place the balm in the pan and let it melt gently for 5–10 minutes.
Carefully remove using kitchen tongs and place on a towel.
Let sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes, until it firms up but is still soft. Now, it is ready to use! Enjoy!
HELPFUL TIPS
How to Store Your Balm
- Keep it cool – Store your balm in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
- Avoid temperature swings – Repeated melting and cooling can cause texture changes (like grittiness).
- Use clean hands or a spatula – This helps prevent contamination and extends shelf life.
How to Apply Without Feeling Greasy
- Use a small amount – Tallow is very rich, and a little truly goes a long way. Start with a pea-sized amount.
- Warm it up – Rub the balm between your fingers to soften and activate the oils before applying.
- Apply to damp skin – After washing or spritzing your skin, apply the balm to help lock in moisture without a heavy feel.
Other Helpful Tips
- Great for multi-use – Use on face, hands, baby skin, dry patches, heels, lips, and even stretch marks.
- Patch test if sensitive – Especially if you're new to tallow or essential oils, try a small test spot first.
- Perfect for all ages – Gentle enough for babies, nourishing enough for adults, and effective for sensitive or aging skin.
- Great for travel – The solid balm form makes it easy to pack without worrying about spills or TSA limits.
- Layer under or over skincare – Use as a final step to seal in hydration or under makeup as a clean primer alternative.
- Natural scent may vary – Because we use real ingredients with no artificial fragrance, you may notice slight scent variations between
batches. That's nature's signature.
