Ingredients

Active Ingredient:

• Uncoated Non-Nano Zinc Oxide (23%)

   

  We do not label our product with an SPF rating, as this requires rigorous FDA testing to make such claims. However, based on our research, our formulation follows a 1:1 ratio of zinc oxide to SPF, meaning 1% zinc oxide equates to approximately SPF 1.

  Our 23% zinc oxide formulation, combined with grass-fed tallow, which naturally has an SPF of around 6, offers a high level of natural sun protection. While we cannot make specific SPF claims, this combination provides effective broad-spectrum coverage and nourishment for your skin.

Non-Active Ingredients:

• Suet Tallow from regeneratively raised Northern California cattle
• Organic Calendula CO₂ Extract (Calendula)
• Séka Hills extra-virgin olive oil
• Organic Gold Jojoba Oil from Northern California

Experience the purity and effectiveness of our Zinc Oxide Tallow Balm. Perfect for natural sun protection and nourishing care.

Our regeneratively raised, grass-grazed, and grass-finished beef suet tallow is slowly and carefully rendered into a deeply nourishing balm of exceptional purity and quality. Suet tallow is naturally wax-like in consistency and requires a sustainable carrier oil to achieve a smooth, spreadable texture.

We honor traditional methods and never whip, add water, or overheat our formulations.

Each jar is hand-poured into sterilized containers to preserve the full integrity of our ingredients.

We are pioneers in regenerative suet tallow skincare, crafting every product in-house with a deep commitment to sustainability, transparency, and care.

Our products are healing, holistic, and therapeutic, made with the intention to nourish the body and honor the land. We are not here to follow trends, but to remain in tune with the seasons, our environment, traditional principles, and whole animal husbandry.

Our process is firmly rooted in the Slow Body Care Movement®, using local, regenerative organic ingredients and time-honored methods to create nutrient-dense skincare of the highest quality.

Scoop & Warm – Using clean, dry fingers, scoop out a pea- to quarter-sized amount of balm depending on the area to be treated.

Emulsify – Place the balm in the palm of your hand and gently warm it with slow movements, allowing it to soften and melt.

Apply – Pat or massage onto a clean face or any area of the body in need of deep moisturization and nourishment.

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.

Apply Summer Solace Tallow Balm anywhere your skin needs nourishment—face, hands, feet, lips, eyelids, elbows, groin area, or scalp. There is no need for multiple products. Our balm is designed to support all skin types and concerns with simplicity and effectiveness.

It is especially beneficial for chapped skin, eczema, and other delicate or sensitive areas. Because it is rich and concentrated, a little goes a long way.

Our Tallow Balm can also be layered with any serum, vitamin C, or retinol to help seal in active ingredients and reduce potential irritation. For enhanced results, we recommend pairing it with our Emanations Animal-Based Face Oil, which improves absorption and adds another layer of healing, nutrient-dense support.

A proprietary amount of olive oil is blended with our tallow to enhance spreadability and provide additional skin-supportive benefits. Olive oil has been revered for centuries for its soothing, moisturizing properties and is rich in antioxidants such as vitamin E and oleuropein.

We source our extra virgin olive oil directly from SEKA Hills in Capay Valley, California, where it is freshly pressed and never adulterated. Unlike many imported oils on the market today, this olive oil is pure, traceable, and produced with integrity.

Our commitment to regional sourcing and ingredient transparency ensures a level of quality you can trust and feel good about using on your skin.

Because our balms are handcrafted in small batches using fresh, whole food, nutrient-dense ingredients, natural variation is a mark of authenticity and quality. The color of the tallow, the time of harvest, and the essential oils or botanical blends we use may shift slightly from batch to batch.

These subtle changes are to be expected and celebrated in truly artisanal skincare.

During the spring and summer months, the beef cattle at Stemple Creek Ranch graze on fresh grasses, wild herbs, and blooming flowers, all kissed with morning dew and the saline-rich mist of the nearby Pacific Ocean.

This diverse, seasonal forage imparts a unique character to the suet, which is reflected in the richness and hue of the finished balm.

These natural variations do not affect the purity, potency, or effectiveness of our tallow.

Rather, they are a testament to our commitment to working in harmony with the land, the seasons, and traditional methods.
