Masculin Féminin Tallow Balm

Herbaceous and Woodsy
Grounding Skincare Rooted in Ancient Wisdom and Everyday Ritual

Masculin Féminin is a unisex, herbaceous, and woodsy balm crafted to honor balance, resilience, and the sacred union of tradition and daily care. As the original formula in the Summer Solace Regenerative Tallow® collection, this balm carries the vision of founder Megan Bre Camp—blending sacred plant aromatics with ancestral fats to create a nourishing, grounding skincare ritual for all.

Ideal for use on the face, body, beard, or hair, it invites calm, clarity, and connection through scent and touch.


Masculin Féminin Tallow Balm is where ancestral healing meets everyday care.
A timeless formula rooted in earth, spirit, and craft—this is the balm that started it all.

Full Ingredient List

Tallow Balm Application

  • Scoop a pea- to quarter-sized amount with clean, dry fingers.
  • Warm in your palm until soft.
  • Gently pat or massage into clean skin—face, body, or any dry areas.

Texture & Seasonal Adaptation

Our small-batch, fresh suet, dry-rendered, and unwhipped tallow naturally responds to environmental conditions. These gentle shifts in texture are to be expected and are a sign of the purity and simplicity of our ingredients.

  • In warmer temperatures, the balm may soften. If exposed to extreme heat, refrigerate it to restore a firmer consistency. If it fully melts, leave the lid off and allow it to re-solidify in the refrigerator.
  • In cooler temperatures, the balm may become firmer. To soften, place the jar in a warm water bath or bring it into the shower for a few minutes.

We embrace this seasonal adaptability as part of the natural rhythm and beauty of truly handmade, whole-food skincare.

Storage Tips:

  • Store your tallow balm in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight.
  • While our balms are shelf-stable and don’t require refrigeration, keeping them out of extreme heat will maintain their texture and freshness.

Shelf Life & Freshness:

  • Our products are made in small batches weekly to ensure the highest quality.
  • For the best experience, use your tallow products within nine months of purchase and ideally within 8–12 weeks of opening.
  • Though our tallow has an indefinite shelf life, using it while fresh allows you to fully enjoy its seasonal benefits.

What Makes Summer Solace Tallow Different?

What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to quality, transparency, and ecological care. We use only kidney suet from pasture-raised Northern California cattle, sourced from Stemple Creek Ranch. This suet tallow is rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K and closely mirrors the structure of human skin, making it deeply nourishing and naturally supportive of skin health.

We never use seed oils, synthetic fragrances, or palm oil. Instead, our formulas rely on nutrient-rich animal fats, organic botanicals, and pure essential oils that offer lasting nourishment without compromise.
