Intensive Tallow & Honey Face Balm

Deep Nourishment for Dry, Cut & Damaged Skin

This balm was created because my skin could no longer tolerate modern skincare. Packed with long ingredient lists, synthetic emulsifiers and hidden toxins, many “gentle” products left my skin dry, reactive and uncomfortable — especially as it changed through menopause.

So I stripped everything back and started again.

This Intensive Tallow & Honey Balm is the result of months of trial, testing and refinement, beginning with pure grass-fed tallow and evolving into the perfect balance of tallow, raw honey, jojoba oil and olive oil — supported by carefully chosen essential oils.

It is deeply nourishing, protective and calming, designed to support dry, cut and damaged skin, menopause-affected skin and sensitive or eczema-prone skin.

Why Tallow & Honey?

Grass-fed tallow closely mirrors our skin’s natural oils, allowing it to absorb easily and support the skin barrier without clogging or overwhelming. It is naturally rich in vitamins A, D, E and K, helping skin feel resilient, soft and comfortable.

Raw honey is a natural humectant, drawing moisture into the skin while helping to soothe irritation and dryness.

Together, they nourish, hydrate and protect — working with the skin, not against it.

Deeply Nourishing Oils

To create a cream-like balm that melts into the skin, I’ve added:

• Jojoba oil – a liquid wax that mimics sebum, improving absorption and balance

• Olive oil – rich in antioxidants and fatty acids, adding softness and long-lasting nourishment

• Beeswax – to protect the skin barrier and lock in moisture

Essential Oil Blend (Subtle & Purposeful)

Scented lightly and naturally using:

• Frankincense

• Ho Wood

• Myrrh

• Bergamot

• Grapefruit

This blend is calming, grounding and never overpowering — designed to soothe rather than irritate.

Ideal For:

• Dry, cracked or cut and damaged skin

• Menopause and mature skin

• Sensitive, reactive or eczema-prone skin

• Skin struggling with modern, toxic skincare

What You Won’t Find

• No fillers or unnecessary ingredients

Just skin-compatible, traditional ingredients your skin understands.

Why Tallow Be Thy Name?

This balm exists because I refused to accept irritation, dryness and discomfort as “normal”. It’s skincare rooted in simplicity, tradition and respect for the skin — made in small batches with intention and care.

Sometimes the most powerful skincare is the most natural.
