INSIDE OUR TALLOW MAKING PROCESS
STEP 1
We start with grass-fed, grass-finished beef suet tallow from small California ranches. It's dry-rendered for a clean, steady fat that becomes the base of every batch.
STEP 2
Then we prepare our chosen herbs, selecting each one with intention. Every blend is formulated for specific skin types, so we choose herbs and oils that truly support the skin we're crafting for.
Step 3
We gently infuse our herbs into the oils, letting time do the work. Depending on the strength we're aiming for, these infusions can steep anywhere from a few weeks to several
step 4
Once our oils are fully infused, we blend them with our warm, softened tallow. The mixture comes together slowly, then we whip it into a light, creamy butter that feels soft and luxurious on the skin.
Step 5
Once the tallow reaches its creamy, buttery consistency, we pipe it gently into jars. Each one is filled by hand, keeping the process slow, intentional, and personal.
Step 6
When it reaches you, this luxurious, creamy, buttery tallow is ready for your face and whole body. A little truly goes a long way, so each jar lasts a long time.
A FEW THINGS YOU MAY BE WONDERING
Will it leave my hands feeling greasy?
This is a rich, concentrated balm, so a little goes a long way. Start with a small amount and massage it in well, especially over dry areas, knuckles + cuticles.
Why do you use both tallow + lanolin?
Tallow provides rich, nourishing moisture while lanolin helps condition dry, weather-exposed skin. Together, they create a concentrated balm especially suited to hardworking hands + dry climates.
How often can I use it?
As often as your hands need it. Keep it nearby after hand washing, before heading outdoors, or use a little more as part of your evening ritual.
Can I use it on my cuticles?
Absolutely. Massage a small amount into dry cuticles, knuckles + other stubborn dry spots whenever they need extra care.
Can I use it anywhere besides my hands?
Yes. Although it was created for hands, the concentrated balm works beautifully on small areas of rough, dry skin like elbows, knees + other weathered spots.
Does it contain added fragrance or essential oils?
No. The Hand Balm contains no added fragrance or essential oils. Its subtle natural aroma comes from the ingredients themselves.
Is this a lotion?
No. Unlike a traditional lotion, this balm is water-free + highly concentrated. You only need a small amount, making it especially useful when regular hand lotion doesn't feel like enough.
