Frequently Asked Questions
What is tallow balm?
Tallow balm is a beautifully natural and deeply nourishing skincare essential, crafted from grass-fed beef tallow.
It's lovingly blended with skin-loving fats, rich oils, and creamy butters — and for some blends, a touch of pure essential oils — to create a luxurious, moisturising balm your skin will absolutely adore. Once you try it, you'll see why it's become a must-have for those seeking simple, honest, and effective skincare.
How do I use tallow balm?
Apply a small amount to clean, dry skin and gently massage it in. It can be used on the face, hands, body, or any area that needs extra moisture and care.
What is the shelf life of my tallow balm?
When stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, it can last up to 12 months or longer. There are no added preservatives, so we always recommend using clean, dry hands when applying to keep your balm fresh for as long as possible.
Can I use tallow balm as a facial moisturiser?
Absolutely! Tallow balm is a beautiful addition to any skincare ritual and works wonderfully as a natural alternative. We offer two luxurious options: our Signature Whipped Tallow, light and fluffy, perfect as an everyday moisturiser. And of course our Solid Serum Tallow Balm, rich and concentrated for deep, targeted nourishment. Both are deeply nurturing and designed to support healthy, radiant skin — naturally.
How should I store tallow balm?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Can tallow balm help with skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our customers find comfort in using tallow balm to help soothe eczema, psoriasis, and other sensitive skin conditions. Its naturally rich, anti-inflammatory and deeply hydrating properties offer gentle relief and lasting nourishment where your skin needs it most.
Is tallow balm safe for babies and children?
Absolutely! Tallow skincare is a beautiful, gentle option for babies and children — especially those with dry or sensitive skin. We recommend starting with our Unscented or Vanilla Bean Infused Tallow Balm for little ones, as both are soft, soothing, and free from added essential oils.
As with any new product, we always suggest doing a small patch test first to ensure it’s the perfect match for your child’s skin.
Does tallow balm have a scent?
Our tallow balms are available in both unscented and naturally scented options.
The unscented version is completely natural, with zero added fragrance—just the pure, nourishing goodness of tallow. If you’re new to tallow, you might notice a gentle, earthy scent unique to this traditional ingredient.
For those who prefer a little aroma in their skincare, we also offer blends crafted with the highest quality organic essential oils and delicate in-house infusions, creating a beautiful, subtle scent experience — all from nature.
How long does a jar of tallow balm last?
Each jar is made to last. Thanks to its rich, concentrated formula, you’ll only need a small amount with each use — meaning your balm can last anywhere from several weeks to a few months, depending on how often you reach for it.
Is tallow balm suitable for all skin types?
Yes! Tallow balm is especially beneficial for dry, sensitive, or irritated skin. Because it closely mimics the skin’s natural oils, it’s well-tolerated by most skin types, including those with eczema or psoriasis. If you do suffer with extra sensitive skin, eczema or psoriasis, we recommend using our Unscented or Infused Vanilla bean Tallow Balm's.
Is tallow balm greasy or heavy on the skin?
High-quality whipped tallow balm absorbs quickly and leaves skin feeling soft and nourished without a greasy residue. Texture can vary depending on formulation.
