  • Antioxidant Defense Against Sun Stress: A powerhouse trio of astaxanthin, hibiscus, and sea buckthorn provides antioxidants that neutralize free radicals, protecting against oxidative stress and photoaging.
  • Calms & Soothes Sun-Exposed Skin: Marshmallow root extract, cocoa, and vanilla bring soothing phytonutrients that help reduce post-sun redness and keep skin feeling balanced and comfortable.
  • Boosts Resilience: Carrot seed oil and schisandra berry extract help skin adapt to environmental stress, supporting elasticity, an even tone, and a healthy post-sun radiance.

Apply before sun exposure, blending until white cast dissipates. Allow a few minutes for it to absorb.

Tallow sun balm is resistant to water, however we recommend reapplication after swimming (or sweating).

Before any prolonged sun exposure, we recommend testing sun balm to see how it works with your skin.

Our sun balm tubes are made from green polyethylene (PE), a bioplastic created by fermenting sugarcane to produce ethanol, which is then converted into polyethylene.

Unlike traditional polyethylene derived from fossil fuels, sugarcane-based PE is renewable and sequesters CO2 during the plant’s growth, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 50–80%.

Grass-Fed & Finished Tallow 

The base of our formula, grass-fed tallow is rich in nourishing fatty acids that are almost identical to the oils found in your skin. This makes it an ideal choice for grass-fed tallow skincare, helping to repair the skin barrier, lock in hydration, and provide stability even when exposed to UV rays. Unlike high-PUFA oils, tallow remains resilient in the sun — making it the perfect partner in a tallow balmsun protectant.

Kokum butter

Lightweight yet deeply moisturizing, kokum butter adds rich emollients that help seal in hydration without clogging pores. It supports sensitive skin by protecting the natural barrier, leaving the skin soft and comfortable even after hours of sun exposure.

Non-Nano Zinc Oxide

Our formula relies on non-nano zinc oxide, a trusted mineral filter. Sitting on the surface of the skin, zinc oxide reflects UVA and UVB rays, offering reliable sun protection without absorbing into the body. It’s the cornerstone of every effective zinc oxide sun protectant and the reason this tallow sun balm provides broad-spectrum defense.

Hibiscus Flower Oil

A vibrant botanical that brings both beauty and function, hibiscus flower oil is rich in antioxidants and natural acids. It helps defend against oxidative stress caused by UV rays, while also brightening and firming the skin for a radiant finish.

Organic Carrot Seed Oil

Carrot seed oil is packed with antioxidants and carotenoids, making it an important addition to our tallow sun balm. It helps shield skin from environmental stress, supports elasticity, and enhances your natural glow while under the sun.

Marshmallow Root

Naturally soothing, marshmallow root extract calms skin that has been exposed to the sun. Its hydrating properties reduce redness and irritation, making it a gentle choice for sensitive skin in need of comfort after UV exposure.

Yes. Our tallow sun balm uses 15% non-nano zinc oxide to provide broad-spectrum sun protection. This mineral sun balm creates a physical barrier against UVA and UVB rays, helping to prevent sunburn while nourishing the skin with grass-fed tallow and other botanicals.

Tallow sun balm works by combining non-nano zinc oxide with skin-compatible fats and oils. The zinc oxide acts as a mineral filter, reflecting harmful UV rays away, while the tallow balm base restores hydration and keeps the skin barrier strong.

Yes. Unlike many chemical sun protectants, our zinc oxide sun balm still allows for safe vitamin D production. The non-nano zinc oxide provides mineral protection against UVA and UVB rays but doesn’t completely block the body’s natural ability to synthesize vitamin D.

Most traditional sun protectants rely on synthetic chemicals to absorb UV rays. Our tallow sun balm uses non-nano zinc oxide to physically block UV rays, alongside nourishing botanicals and grass-fed tallow skincare. It’s free from hormone disruptors, high-PUFA oils, and harsh additives.

As with most zinc oxide sun protectants, a slight white cast may appear upon application. However, our formula is designed to blend in smoothly with massage, leaving behind a lightweight, non-greasy finish.

For best results, reapply every two hours when outdoors, or more frequently after swimming, sweating, or towel drying. This helps provide continuous protection and keeps your skin barrier supported against UV rays throughout the day.

Yes. Our tallow sun balm is designed to prevent burning while allowing for a safe, gradual glow. Because it’s loaded with antioxidants like hibiscus and carrot seed oil, this tallow sun balm also helps minimize photoaging caused by UV rays.
