Tallow is known for its skin healing and conditioning properties. It is a very mild and non-irritating moisturizer. Tallow is the rendered fat from beef cows.
These balms have a higher melting point than my whipped butters. If you live somewhere warm I would recommend these over the whipped butters.
I infused herbs in olive oil for 3 months to make these because I wanted to add the skin healing properties from the herbs to my recipe! These herbs are thought to speed skin repair and aid in healing dry skin conditions. *List of herbs used below.
There are four options:
Unscented - These have a mild beef tallow scent that fades quickly. Excellent for very sensitive skin types.
Ho Wood - This essential oil is thought to provide relaxation, ease stress, and create a calming atmosphere.
Tea Tree & Rose Geranium - I added this essential oil blend to these options to add extra relief for skin irritations. They are known for their anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and antioxidant properties. These are thought to aid in healing and smoothing the skin.
Frankincense - I added this essential oil to these options to promote skin tightening and it is also thought to improve skin’s appearance and help to clear occasional blemishes.
Carrot seed oil is in each option and is thought to aid in skin repair. It’s full of nutrients, including beta carotene and vitamins A&E. It can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and also contains a natural tanning enhancer for a lovely skin glow. It helps heal psoriasis, dermatitis and eczema. It can also aid in healing rashes, sunburns, and relieve general itching. Lastly it’s thought to improve the elasticity of skin and the increase firmness.
