Tallow Balm with Beeswax & Honey
Nourishing Skin Food for Radiance & Repair
💚 Why Tallow?
Tallow (rendered beef fat) is a traditional skincare ingredient rich in vitamins A, D, E, K, and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). It closely mimics the structure of human skin sebum, making it ultra-nourishing, non-irritating, and ideal for sensitive, dry, or eczema-prone skin.
