Our Ingredients

Our Ingredients

Every ingredient in our products has earned its place. We don't use fillers, synthetic fragrances, or unnecessary additives. What you see on our label is exactly what's in the jar — nothing more, nothing less.

Here's a closer look at the ingredients we use and why we chose them.

The Foundation

Grass-Fed Beef Tallow

The heart of our line. We use only grass-fed suet tallow — the purest fat from around the kidneys of the animal — sourced from trusted Indiana farmers who raise their cattle responsibly. Our tallow is slow-rendered in small batches to preserve its naturally rich profile of vitamins A, D, E, and K. Its bioavailable fatty acid structure closely mirrors that of human skin, allowing it to absorb easily, deeply moisturize, and reinforce the skin's natural barrier.

Herbal-Infused Tallow (Chamomile & Calendula)

Many of our balms feature tallow that has been slowly infused with chamomile and calendula — two botanicals traditionally used to calm and comfort delicate skin. This infusion enhances tallow's already rich nutrient profile while adding gentle soothing and skin-renewing benefits.

Carrier Oils

Jojoba Oil

Technically a liquid wax ester, jojoba closely mimics the skin's natural sebum. It helps balance moisture, adds a silky texture, and provides a smooth, non-greasy finish. Suitable for all skin types.

Rosehip Oil

A lightweight oil rich in essential fatty acids and antioxidants. Traditionally used to support the appearance of smooth, even-toned skin and to help with skin renewal.

Castor Oil

A thick, nourishing oil known for its deeply conditioning properties. Used in our Sunset formulas to add richness and support skin resilience.

Sweet Almond Oil

A gentle, lightweight oil that softens and conditions skin. Rich in vitamins and fatty acids, it absorbs easily without leaving a heavy residue.

Calendula-Infused Olive Oil

Olive oil slowly infused with calendula flowers to extract their calming, anti-inflammatory properties. Used in our Calendula Comfort line to soothe irritated and sensitive skin.

Black Seed Oil

A potent botanical oil with a long history of traditional use. Known for its balancing and skin-supportive properties, it is used in our Sunrise Face Oil.

Butters & Waxes

Shea Butter

A rich, creamy butter that adds softness, smoothness, and long-lasting moisture. Helps soothe rough or dry areas and supports the skin barrier.

Cocoa Butter

Deeply moisturizing and protective, cocoa butter provides structure and helps lock in hydration.

Beeswax

A natural wax that creates a breathable, protective seal on the skin without clogging pores. Used in our lip balms to lock in moisture and provide lasting wear.

Raw Honey

A natural humectant that draws moisture into the skin. Known for its gentle antibacterial and soothing properties, raw honey helps calm irritation and support skin comfort. Used in our Honey Tallow Balm formulas.

Essential Oils

We use essential oils thoughtfully and intentionally — always within safe dermal limits and never as filler. Each one is selected for both its aromatic profile and its traditional skin-supportive qualities.

Frankincense

One of the most revered botanicals in traditional skincare. Known for its ability to support the appearance of tone and elasticity, and to promote a calm, even-looking complexion. Its warm, resinous aroma adds a grounding quality to any routine.

Lavender

One of the most versatile essential oils in skincare. Traditionally appreciated for its calming and balancing properties, lavender supports skin comfort and overall balance. Its gentle floral aroma makes it ideal for daily use.

Helichrysum

A precious essential oil traditionally used to support the appearance of smooth, healthy-looking skin. Often included in formulations intended to promote a refined and even-looking complexion.

Geranium

Chosen for its balancing properties, geranium is traditionally used to support both dry and combination skin types. It contributes a soft, slightly floral note to our Sunset Face Oil.

Tea Tree

Widely recognized for its purifying properties. Used sparingly in our Calendula Comfort and Honey formulas to support clarity and balance, particularly for skin that needs a little extra care.

Peppermint

A cooling, refreshing essential oil used in our Peppermint Lip Balm. Provides a pleasant sensation and supports lip comfort.

Cinnamon

A warming essential oil used in our Cinnamon Lip Balm. Adds a subtle spice and a gentle warming sensation.

Cedarwood

A grounding, woodsy essential oil used in our Cedarwood Tallow Soap. Known for its calming aroma and skin-supportive properties.

Eucalyptus & Citrus Oils

Used in our Golden Hour Body Oil for their refreshing, revitalizing aroma and skin-brightening qualities.
