Grass-fed beef tallow
From grass-fed and finished cattle
The heart of the balm. Its fatty acids closely match your skin's own oils, so it absorbs instead of sitting on top, and it is naturally rich in vitamins A, D, E and K.

What to expect
Softer skin, starting with the first jar
Use it on dry or patchy areas 2 to 3 times a day until your skin feels restored, then as needed. Here's what to expect.
- First use
Instant comfort
The balm melts into skin, leaving tight, dry areas feeling soft and supple.
- Week 1
Rough patches smooth over
Skin stays comfortable for longer between applications.
- Weeks 2 to 4
Visibly smoother skin
Rough spots on hands and heels feel softer, and skin looks more even.
- After that
Keep it that way
Once skin feels restored, apply a small amount whenever needed to keep it nourished.
Why tallow works
Your skin is held together by fats. Tallow puts them back.
The outer layer of your skin keeps water in with a mix of lipids: cholesterol, free fatty acids and ceramides. When that layer runs low, skin turns dry, tight and rough.
Tallow's fatty-acid profile closely resembles human sebum. A 2024 scoping review of 19 studies concluded the evidence supports tallow as a moisturising, barrier-compatible emollient. We pair it with raw honey to draw moisture in and beeswax to seal it there.

What's inside
Five ingredients. That's the whole list.
Organic raw honey
A natural humectant that draws moisture into the skin.
Organic raw beeswax
Seals moisture in with a protective layer that still lets skin breathe.
Organic virgin coconut oil
Adds moisture and glide. Rich in lauric acid.
Tocopherol (vitamin E)
An antioxidant that helps protect your skin and the balm's natural oils.

The research
What the studies say about lipids and skin
Tallow, rendered animal fat, and its biocompatibility with skin
The review found that tallow's fatty-acid profile closely resembles human sebum and supports its use as a moisturising, barrier-compatible emollient. The authors call for more controlled trials.
View on PubMedRole of lipids in the formation and maintenance of the cutaneous permeability barrier
Describes how cholesterol, free fatty acids and ceramides form the water-retaining barrier of the outer skin, and why topical lipids can support barrier repair.
View on PubMedThe important role of stratum corneum lipids for the cutaneous barrier function
Explains how the balance of skin-surface lipids affects moisture retention and resilience to irritants, supporting the use of lipid-rich, fragrance-free emollients.

FAQ
Questions before you buy
What does it feel like?
Firm in the jar, with a buttery texture. It melts as it warms on your skin and becomes a rich oil. Start with a small amount and add more if you need it.
Does it smell like beef?
No. It has a faint, natural honey scent that's pleasant on the skin, and it doesn't smell like beef.
Will it clog my pores?
Tallow is generally considered non-comedogenic, and its fatty acids closely resemble your skin's own oils. Any skincare can cause breakouts for some people, so if you're prone to them, start with a thin layer at night.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. It has five ingredients and no synthetic fragrance. Patch test first if you react to honey, beeswax or coconut.
How big is the jar?
60 g net weight. It's a water-free balm, so a small amount covers a lot of skin.
Is it vegan?
No. It contains grass-fed beef tallow, honey and beeswax.
Will it melt in an Australian summer?
Coconut oil softens in warm weather, so the balm can soften on a hot day. Keep the lid on and store it somewhere cool, out of direct sun.
How much is shipping?
We dispatch fast from within Australia. Shipping is free on orders over $100. Under $100, standard shipping is $10 and express is $13. Metro areas usually receive them in 3 to 5 business days and regional areas in 5 to 7.
