What makes The Original Balm different?
Most moisturizers use seed oils and fillers. The Original Balm is made with just grass-fed tallow, beeswax, and organic olive oil to mirror your skin's natural structure.
Is it safe for babies and sensitive skin?
Yes. Intentionally formulated for newborn skin, eczema, psoriasis, and barrier repair. 100% free from parabens and fragrances.
Can I use this balm on my face?
Absolutely. It's non-comedogenic and rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K. Ideal for dry patches or as an overnight healing mask.
What's the difference in scented options?
All scented options use pure essential oils only. Choose Lavandin for relaxation, Mandarin Ginger for energy, Vanilla for warmth, or Unscented.
How often should I apply it?
Use as often as needed. A little goes a long way thanks to its concentrated, water-free formula.
Will it leave my skin greasy?
It absorbs quickly once warmed, leaving a natural dewy glow rather than an oily residue.
Can it help with eczema or psoriasis?
Yes. Tallow's fatty acid profile mimics skin sebum, helping restore the lipid barrier and reduce inflammation.
How long does one jar last?
A 2oz jar typically lasts 6–12 months with daily use because the formula is so concentrated.

This is the second time I have ordered this item. The first order had a nice lavender scent but this doesn’t at all even though it says lavender.
This is a rich balm that is soothing to all skin types. I have very dry skin and often times it cracks, but using this balm calms it down and prevents cracking. I highly recommend this product.
My ongoing favorite item. I’ve tried other brands, but this one is the best. The mandarin ginger is my favorite scent. I will continue to order.
A classic, how could I refuse (Barbie ref hehe)
Using this post cancer radiation treatment has saved my skin!
