The Earthen Tallow Candle - Fog Glazed
- Low stock - 5 items left
- Backordered, shipping soon
A smokey black Tea tallow candle that is hand poured into a reusable, food-safe natural clay vessel with scents of Choya Loban, Vetiver, Omani Frankincense, and Moroccan Cardamom.
These earthen candle vessels are shaped from locally foraged clays and minerals from the Sierra Mountains in collaboration with local Berkeley potter Matt Fishman (as mentioned in The New York Times).
Hand-poured with our original base of tallow, calendula wax, and raw beeswax, scented with highly perfumed moody Lapsang Souchong smoky black tea, warm spice of Moroccan cardamom pods, and transcending Vietnamese siam wood and Omani Frankincense resins.
Indeed a reflection of the local Northern California landscape in form and spirit, our earthen candles are the perfect pair for a foggy day in the Bay.
Ingredients: Regenerative Tallow® (suet) from certified regeneratively-raised Northern California cattle, organic marigold CO2 extract (Calendula), raw beeswax from local California hives, lapsang souchong black tea (Camellia sinensis), smoked frankincense, Siam wood, Choya loban essential oil from distilled terra cotta pots, and organic vetiver (Chrysopogon zizanioides) essential oil.
In 2014, inspired by the struggles my friends’ children faced with eczema and drawing on my background as a holistic nutrition chef, I had a vision. I realized I could create a premium skincare line using high-quality, locally sourced ingredients.
My goal was to revive the traditional use of nourishing, pasture-raised animal fats to help those suffering from dry skin and irritations.
Guided by my indigenous roots, I am deeply committed to sustainability and the connection between what we put on our skin and use in our homes.
The farmers’ market and the Slow Body Movement® became the foundation for my brand, built on principles of sustainability and local resources. Every ingredient has a story, and I source only from the highest quality, ethically responsible ranchers and farmers within California’s sustainable and regenerative agricultural community.
Discover the transformative power of sustainable, locally sourced skincare with my premium line, designed to nurture both your skin and the environment.

How to Store Tallow Balm:
Store your tallow balm in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
Why We Don’t Whip Our Balms:
We avoid whipping our balms to prevent introducing air and bacteria, which can inflate volume and compromise quality. Whipping can also cause melting, leaving less product in the jar. Instead, we hand-pour our tallow to preserve its full benefits and maintain authenticity.
Adjusting Balm Texture:
To soften your balm, immerse the closed container in warm water until melted. Remove the lid and let it cool in the refrigerator. This ensures the balm remains soft and easy to spread. Tallow solidifies in cold and softens in warm conditions.
Storing Tallow Soap:
Use a raised soap dish to allow handcrafted soap to dry between uses, prolonging its life.
Shelf Life of Tallow Products:
Our tallow products have a long shelf life, best used within nine months. For maximum effectiveness, use within 8-12 weeks of opening.
Tallow for Facial Use and Children:
Tallow is safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin. Rich in essential vitamins, it helps with conditions like eczema and diaper rash, making it a healthier alternative to synthetic creams.
Product Disclaimer:
Consult a medical professional or allergist before use, especially if you have known allergies or sensitive skin. Conduct patch tests to minimize the risk of adverse reactions. Your safety and satisfaction are our priorities.
Trimming Tallow Candle Wicks:
Our tallow-beeswax candles burn cleanly with Eco wicks. Trimming is optional but recommended for safety. Allow your candle to burn for about 4 hours for an even wax pool. Never leave a lit candle unattended.
