Why Tallow?

Nature’s Original Skincare — Perfected by Time

Beef tallow is one of the most effective, nutrient-dense ingredients you can feed your skin. Sourced from grass-fed, pasture-raised cattle, it’s packed with powerful, bioavailable vitamins and fatty acids that nourish your skin at the cellular level.

✅ Bio-Compatible & Easily Absorbed

Tallow closely mimics the molecular structure of human sebum — meaning your skin recognizes it and absorbs it effortlessly. It doesn’t clog pores, irritate, or sit on top like synthetic lotions. Instead, it melts in and moisturizes deeply, leaving your skin soft, balanced, and healthy.

🌿 Rich in Skin-Loving Nutrients

Each jar is naturally loaded with:

• Vitamin A – Speeds up cell regeneration and fights breakouts.
• Vitamin D – Supports skin barrier strength and calms irritation.
• Vitamin E – A powerful antioxidant that promotes healing and glow.
• Vitamin K – Helps reduce redness and supports skin elasticity.

No synthetic versions — just real, bioavailable nutrition straight from nature.

💧 Deep Hydration That Lasts

Unlike water-based creams that evaporate quickly, tallow locks in moisture while allowing skin to breathe. It soothes dry patches, softens rough spots, and keeps your skin hydrated all day long — even in sun, salt, or wind.

🧬 Naturally Anti-Inflammatory & Antimicrobial

Grass-fed tallow is rich in palmitoleic acid and CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) — natural compounds known for their anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. It’s ideal for calming eczema, healing chapped skin, and restoring skin that’s been overexposed to sun and sea.

🌎 Sustainable & Zero-Waste

Tallow is a clean, whole-animal ingredient — honoring the entire animal and supporting regenerative agriculture. No synthetic ingredients, fillers, or plastic packaging. Just real skin nourishment made with purpose.

✨ Experience the Difference

Our handcrafted Salt & Sea Tallow balms are a return to what works — simple, effective, nutrient-rich skincare that connects you to the earth and ocean.

Why Extra Virgin Olive Oil?

A Mediterranean Secret for Skin That Glows

Used for thousands of years in natural skincare, Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is a powerful plant-based healer. Cold-pressed from fresh olives, it’s rich in antioxidants and fatty acids that calm, nourish, and restore your skin without irritation.

🌿 Pure, Simple & Skin-Friendly

EVOO is gentle enough for sensitive skin yet powerful enough to soothe sunburns, dry patches, and redness. Unlike refined oils, extra virgin olive oil retains its full spectrum of natural nutrients — no heat, no chemicals, just golden green goodness.

💧 Deep Moisture, Without the Grease

Olive oil penetrates deep into the skin’s layers, restoring lost hydration while keeping the surface soft and smooth. It balances oil production and protects the skin’s natural barrier, making it ideal for dry, sun-exposed, or wind-chapped skin.

🛡 Rich in Antioxidants & Skin Protectants

Extra Virgin Olive Oil is naturally loaded with:

• Vitamin E – Boosts skin repair and protects against free radicals
• Squalene – A natural lipid that prevents moisture loss
• Polyphenols – Plant antioxidants that fight premature aging
• Oleic Acid – Strengthens the skin barrier and supports elasticity

Together, these nutrients promote a healthy glow, reduce inflammation, and support skin healing from within.

🔬 Soothing & Anti-Inflammatory

Thanks to its high concentration of polyphenols and fatty acids, olive oil is naturally anti-inflammatory. It helps calm flare-ups from eczema, sun damage, and sensitive skin without synthetic additives.

💛 Why We Use It

We source only organic, cold-pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil, never refined or deodorized. That means you’re getting the full benefit of this ancient ingredient — fresh, nutrient-rich, and packed with skin-loving goodness.

Gentle. Honest. Effective.

It’s more than an oil — it’s a daily skin ritual rooted in simplicity, earthiness, and timeless wisdom.

Why Organic Beeswax?

Nature’s Protective Shield

Organic beeswax is more than just a texture booster — it’s a skin-sealing, moisture-locking, vitamin-rich powerhouse. Sourced straight from hardworking bees and filtered without chemicals, beeswax creates a breathable layer over your skin that protects, heals, and hydrates.

It’s a crucial part of every Salt & Sea balm — anchoring in the goodness of tallow, olive oil, and honey while giving the balm its signature buttery glide.

🧴 Locks in Moisture — Lets Skin Breathe

Unlike petroleum-based products that trap bacteria and suffocate skin, beeswax allows your skin to breathe naturally. It forms a light, non-comedogenic (non-clogging) barrier that prevents moisture loss while shielding from harsh elements like wind, salt, and sun.

🌿 Naturally Rich in Healing Properties

Organic beeswax is packed with:

• Vitamin A – Aids cell regeneration and supports skin healing

• Antibacterial compounds – Help fight acne and prevent infection

• Anti-inflammatory agents – Calm irritated or sensitive skin

It’s the ideal ingredient for dry, cracked, or sensitive skin, especially in beachy, sun-exposed conditions.

💛 The Feel & Function You’ll Love

Beeswax gives our balms their silky-smooth texture and ensures they stay solid at room temperature. It enhances spreadability and gives the balm a luxurious, rich feel that melts on skin contact — without ever feeling greasy.

🐝 Ethically Sourced, Naturally Filtered

We use only organic, unbleached beeswax — never processed with chemicals or synthetic fragrances. Our sourcing supports eco-friendly beekeeping, protecting the hives that give us this ancient, golden skincare gift.

The Bee’s Gift to Your Skin

Moisture-sealing, skin-calming, and barrier-building — beeswax is the quiet hero that holds it all together.

Why Raw Honey?

Sweet for the Skin — Not Just for Tea

Raw honey is a golden healer straight from nature. Unlike processed honey, raw honey is unfiltered and unheated — meaning it retains its full spectrum of enzymes, antioxidants, and antimicrobial properties that make it incredible for skin.

In every jar of Salt & Sea Tallow balm, raw honey adds a soft sweetness and powerful hydration that helps your skin look radiant, dewy, and healthy.

💧 A Natural Humectant

Raw honey draws moisture from the air into your skin — literally pulling hydration deep into the surface layers. It keeps skin soft and plump without clogging pores, making it perfect for dry, sun-exposed, or wind-chapped skin.

🌿 Full of Skin-Healing Nutrients

Raw honey contains:

• Glucose oxidase – A natural enzyme that helps cleanse and calm the skin
• Flavonoids & polyphenols – Plant-based antioxidants that fight damage
• Antibacterial compounds – Help reduce breakouts and inflammation
• Natural sugars – Gently exfoliate and restore radiance

This combination soothes irritation, promotes wound healing, and encourages a healthy skin barrier — all without any synthetic additives.

🍯 Why RAW Matters

Most store-bought honey is pasteurized and filtered, stripping away the nutrients that make honey so powerful. We only use raw, unrefined honey, which keeps its full healing properties intact and adds a natural glow to every balm.

🐝 Sweet Skin, Sustainably

Our raw honey is ethically sourced from trusted beekeepers who prioritize hive health and low-impact harvesting.

Skin Food — Pure and Powerful

More than sweet — raw honey is deeply nourishing, naturally protective, and beautifully effective for all skin types.
