Tallow Lip Balm for dry, chapped lips, lasting moisture and everyday protection. Handcrafted with grass-fed tallow, calendula, shea butter, mango butter and beeswax, this nourishing lip balm helps soften dry lips while creating a protective barrier against wind, cold weather and environmental exposure.
Unlike many conventional lip balms that require constant reapplication, our rich, non-greasy formula is designed to provide long-lasting moisture without feeling sticky or heavy. The result is a practical lip balm you'll reach for throughout every season.
Grass-fed tallow is the star ingredient in this formula. Traditionally valued for its protective and nourishing properties, tallow contains naturally occurring fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins that help support healthy, comfortable lips.
Packaged in a biodegradable, compostable cardboard tube that contains twice as much product as a standard plastic lip balm, this is a simple, sustainable alternative for everyday lip care

How to Use
How to Use
Apply a small amount to clean, dry lips as needed throughout the day. Reapply before spending time outdoors in windy, cold or dry conditions, and before bed for overnight moisture and protection.
Because this lip balm is highly concentrated and packaged in a compostable cardboard tube, gently push up a small amount from the bottom of the tube and apply directly to the lips. A little goes a long way.

Why use tallow?
Why use tallow?
Tallow has been used in traditional skincare for centuries and is prized for its simplicity, effectiveness and compatibility with human skin. Rich in naturally occurring fatty acids such as oleic acid, palmitic acid and stearic acid, along with vitamins A, D, E and K, tallow helps nourish the skin and support a healthy moisture barrier.
Because its fatty acid profile closely resembles the oils naturally produced by human skin, many people find that tallow absorbs beautifully while providing deep, long-lasting moisture. It is especially popular among those with dry, rough, mature or weather-exposed skin.
Our tallow is carefully wet rendered and triple filtered to create a clean, high-quality ingredient with only a very mild natural scent. Depending on the product, you may notice the aroma of herbs or essential oils, while our unscented products have little to no noticeable tallow scent.
We also appreciate tallow for its sustainability. As a traditional ingredient made from a natural byproduct that might otherwise go to waste, tallow reflects a more mindful approach to skincare and honors the long-standing practice of using the whole animal.
Simple, nourishing and time-tested, tallow remains one of our favorite ingredients for creating rich, effective skincare products.

Common questions about tallow:
-
Why use tallow instead of conventional lotions?
Unlike many conventional lotions that contain water, synthetic ingredients and preservatives, tallow-based skincare is highly concentrated and made with simple, nourishing ingredients. A little goes a long way, making it a favorite for those seeking a more traditional approach to skincare.
-
Does tallow smell like beef?
No. Our tallow is carefully wet rendered and triple filtered to remove impurities and minimize any natural scent. Depending on the product, you may notice the aroma of herbs or essential oils, while our unscented products have only a very mild natural scent that quickly fades after application.
-
Will tallow clog my pores?
Tallow has a relatively low comedogenic rating of about 2 out of 5, meaning it is generally well tolerated by many skin types. Because its fatty acid profile closely resembles the oils naturally produced by human skin, many people find it absorbs well without feeling heavy or greasy. However, those with oily or acne-prone skin may wish to patch test before regular use.
-
Is tallow good for dry skin?
Yes. Tallow is deeply moisturizing and helps support the skin's natural moisture barrier. Rich in skin-loving fatty acids and naturally occurring vitamins, it provides long-lasting nourishment and protection. Its unique composition closely resembles the oils naturally found in human skin, making it especially popular for dry, rough, mature or weather-exposed skin that needs extra moisture and care.
-
Is tallow good for oily skin?
Yes. Although tallow is often associated with dry skin, many people with oily skin find that it absorbs well and doesn't feel overly greasy. Because tallow contains fatty acids similar to those naturally found in human skin, it may help support a healthy skin barrier and balanced moisture levels. As with any skincare product, individual results may vary.
-
Is using tallow sustainable?
Tallow is a traditional ingredient that makes use of a natural byproduct that otherwise goes to waste. Rather than relying on highly processed ingredients, tallow utilizes a resource that has been valued for generations in cooking, soap making and skincare. Many people choose tallow-based products as part of a more sustainable ancestral approach to personal care that honors the principle of using the whole animal.
