Our Tallow Lip Balm is made with real food-based ingredients your body recognizes: 100% grass-fed beef tallow, corn- and soy-free lard, beeswax, coconut oil, and a small amount of natural flavor for a clean, subtle scent.
No petroleum.
No synthetic fragrance.
No industrial seed oils.
Just simple, deeply nourishing fats.
Why these ingredients?
This is an old-fashioned, time-tested recipe!
Grass-Fed Beef Tallow: tallow closely resembles the fatty acid structure of our own skin lipids. Rich in stable saturated and monounsaturated fats, it helps soften, condition, and support the delicate lip barrier.
Corn- & Soy-Free Lard: Similarly, provides additional stable fats that enhance spreadability and long-lasting moisture without relying on unstable seed oils.
Beeswax: creates a breathable protective layer that helps seal in moisture and shield lips from dry air, wind, and environmental stress.
Coconut Oil: adds smooth glide and lightweight hydration, helping the balm melt effortlessly on contact.
Together, these ingredients deliver moisture from the outside in: helping lips feel soft, supple, and resilient.
We don’t outsource our animal fats, we source the Nourish way. The tallow and lard come directly from our trusted Nourish producers: animals raised right, needle-free, and fed in alignment with our standards. The same care that goes into your food goes into what touches your skin.
Simple ingredients. Real nourishment. Old-fashioned lip care.
Clean Food For Your Skin
Your skin is your largest organ, and what you apply to it matters since your skin is porous. It’s in constant contact with your environment, and many of the products used daily contain unstable oils and synthetic, hormone-disrupting ingredients.
While more people are becoming mindful of what they eat (removing preservatives, chemicals, pesticides, and seed oils from their diet) those same ingredients are often still applied directly to the skin.
Before modern skincare, simplicity was the standard. For generations, families relied on rendered animal fats like tallow and lard to nourish, protect, and support skin through every season.
These traditional fats closely resemble the fatty acid composition of our own skin, helping to reinforce the skin barrier, soften dry areas, and reduce moisture loss. Rich in stable saturated and monounsaturated fats, they provide lasting support without the instability of modern formulations.
Unlike seed oils, which are highly prone to oxidation (especially when exposed to heat and light like under the sun!) traditional animal fats offer a more stable, resilient option that works in harmony with your skin. And is what our ancestors have used for centuries!
Clean Fats from Nourish Food Club
We don’t outsource our fats. The tallow used is rendered from beef fat from our trusted Nourish producers: beef raised right, needle-free (no drugs), and fed in alignment with our standards. The lard is rendered pork fat from our trusted Nourish producers: pasture-raised pigs fed our custom-made corn- and soy-free feed, and needle-free.
Toxins tend to accumulate in fat, whether from pesticide-laden feed, environmental exposures, or confined feedlot conditions. That’s why sourcing matters!
The same care that goes into your food now extends to what you bring into your home.
These products also allow us to utilize the whole animal, honoring nose-to-tail principles, reducing waste, and supporting a more regenerative, sustainable food system with humane animal treatment and cleaner food.
