Discover the Complete PURE Unscented Line
Explore Summer Solace’s PURE Unscented tallow products for the whole family and experience the unmatched purity and effectiveness of our regenerative skincare solutions.
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.

Welcome to Summer Solace! Here are our answers to some frequently asked questions.
For any queries, reach out to us at: hello@summersolacetallow.com
New to tallow balm? Here's how to store it:
Place your tallow balm in a cool spot, away from direct sunlight.
Why do you not whip your balms?
We refrain from whipping our balm products or incorporating water into them.
Whipping introduces air and bacteria, potentially misleading consumers with inflated volume.
Picture a whipped product left on a shelf during summer—it would likely melt, leaving only half the product in the jar.
Instead, we meticulously hand-pour our tallow to preserve its full benefits. We consider whipping an amateur technique employed to conceal the scent of inadequately rendered tallow.
Our commitment lies in revealing the authentic essence of our fresh suet tallow through careful hand-pouring.
Want to adjust your balm's texture?
Achieve your preferred texture by immersing the closed container in warm water. Once melted, remove the lid and let it cool in the refrigerator. This will ensure your balm remains soft and easy to spread. Remember, tallow behaves like many natural fats – solidifying in cold conditions and becoming soft in warmer temperatures. The balm's consistency can vary with temperature changes, especially during winter.
Wondering about storing your tallow soap?
For handcrafted soaps like ours, a raised soap dish works best. Ensure it dries between uses to prolong its life.
Curious about the shelf life of tallow products?
Our tallow is of exceptional quality and has a long shelf life, but it’s best to use our products while they are fresh. We make small batches every week to maintain the highest quality. Since we use regenerative tallow, which is naturally shelf-stable, our products remain fresh without the need for artificial preservatives. For optimal results, we recommend using them within 8-12 weeks after opening.
Is tallow safe for facial use or for children?
Absolutely! Tallow is beneficial for most skin types, even sensitive ones like facial skin. Its composition closely resembles human skin, making it easily absorbable. Rich in essential vitamins such as A, D, K, E, and B12, organic tallow, especially from pasture-raised cattle, works wonders on skin issues like eczema and diaper rashes. Consider it a healthier substitute for mainstream synthetic creams.
Product Disclaimer:
Before using our products, we strongly advise seeking medical attention or consulting with an allergist, especially if you have known allergies or sensitive skin. It is essential to conduct patch tests on small, inconspicuous areas of the body before applying products to larger areas or the face. This precautionary measure helps to minimize the risk of adverse reactions. We care about your well-being and want to ensure your safety and satisfaction with our products.
Thinking of trimming your tallow candle's wick?
Our tallow-beeswax candles are distinct from regular candles in terms of ingredients and their gentle, prolonged burn. Referred to as 'living candles', wick-trimming is optional based on your preference. For safety, always refer to the warning sticker on the candle's bottom.
We pride ourselves on using Eco wicks, which are not only made from cotton sourced locally from the West Coast but also burn cleanly without any lead.
Before lighting up, ensure your tallow candle burns for about 4 hours, forming a uniform tallow wax pool. Trim the wick as and when necessary and never leave a lit candle unattended.
