Hearth and Homestead: Handmade Whipped Tallow Balm (Unscented/Herb-Infused)
About this item DO IT LIKE GRANDMA DID: Tallow–or rendered beef fat–is ancestral skincare. Our ancestors relied almost solely on animal fats to moisturize, protect, and heal their skin. Enjoy our light, meltable, whipped tallow balm as a contemporary nod to the practice of our forefathers. VITAMIN POWERHOUSE: Tallow is rich in vitamins A,D,E,K and B1 as well as stearic and oleic fatty acids and saturated fat. This yields a balm that is nourishing to your skin, but also highly shelf stable! (Variations in texture are common, due to these unadulterated ingredients). SOURCING: We source our tallow from small farmers who practice regenerative agriculture. This means that they rotationally graze their cows all year long, never feeding anything other than grass. These healthy, happy cows create a beautiful, golden yellow fat that contains high levels of vitamins and minerals. Our top tallow supplier is Polyface Farm in Virginia. We slow-render every batch on our homestead. MILD, CLEAN AROMA: Some tallow balms out there stink like the dickens. We are proud to offer a tallow that smells only lightly buttery upon opening–not beefy or off-putting. Enjoy clean, natural skincare without smelling like a steak (if that’s not what you were looking for…). ABOUT OUR PROCESS: At Hearth and Homestead, we are a small, family-owned business that holds to high standards for every single ingredient we put in our products. We use only high quality essential oils, butters, fats, herbs, and spices. We never use artificial ingredients like micas, dyes, or artificial fragrances.

Straight From Heaven
Please show me how I can invest in your company!!! I had never heard the term “Beef tallow” in my life until I typed the words ” whipped face cream” into the search bar, and your product popped up! Thankfully, it was you and not other ceazy stuff that could’ve popped up with that search, lol. Anyways, after i read the reviews, I was ready to give it a try. I received my order very fast! I opened it right up and was very eager to try it! I remembered reading several reviewers saying “a little truly does go a long way”, so I just barely dipped the tip of my finger over the top of that fluffy surface and swiped it onto my face to feel how greasy it was…and wow! I was expecting either my finger to slip fast=too greasy, or to feel nothing, since I didn’t swipe my finger too heavily into the product. But, what I felt was almost as if I swiped a piece of silk or satin across my face. I had to do it again to make sure of what I just felt. This cream, is the smoothest, non-greasy, most-replenishing, natural product that you can use on your skin AND beyond! So, after I saw what miracles were just performed on my face, which as a side-note, I used both hands to gently, but deeply massage my face with this stuff…because the cream naturally warms up, from your own body temperature and it heals deeply as you massage with it. I was so excited that I began to rub it slowly and deeply into my arms, my elbows, my legs, my knees, my lower back, to my feet. Everywhere! I have severe dry skin, especially on my lower legs. After massaging my legs with this rejuvenating cream, there was absolutely NO dry skin and my skin was PERFECTLY hydrated. A true miracle product! I’ve suffered with severe back, neck, knee and joint pain for my entire life. These days lately, the arthritis that I have throughout my body is debilitating. While I was rubbing these areas, I could feel that beautiful, natural heat building and a HUGE pain relief. This is huge! You are HUGE! Once people use this as a muscle rub, they won’t use any of that other stuff anymore!!! I am walking proof! Since I’ve used your product, the pain from my arthritis and my many other back and neck problems is way more manageable. I can rebound faster after laying in bed all night to an upright person who can get around in the morning. I have been using it twice a day so far and I’ve never felt happier and full of hope for pain relief! By the way, after of all of those applications to myself, entire body rubs…I still have almost have a jar left. “A little Truly does go a long way”. Before I wrote this review, I reordered more and subscribed to receive one jar, every two weeks. I won’t go through the jars that fast, I want to support this company and give my family a jar of this amazing product! The Purest of the Pure!

Can’t live without it anymore!
I’ve tried many natural balms, but this one from Hearth and Homestead is next level. The texture is like whipped frosting, light, fluffy, and melts beautifully into the skin like butter. The Coffee Vanilla scent is warm, cozy, and subtle. Honestly, it’s comforting in every way.I use it mostly on my face and hands, especially at night or after a hot shower. Even though it’s tallow-based, it absorbs faster than I expected, no greasy residue, just deep nourishment. I wake up with soft, glowy skin, even in Seattle’s dry winter air.The 1.3 oz jar is small but mighty, perfect for bedside, travel, or your purse. I also love that it’s handmade with infused olive oil. You can feel the care in every little detail.I’m already planning to try other scents, but Coffee Vanilla has my heart. This balm is staying in my routine for good!

Simply Amazing!
It is unbelievable how amazing this cream makes my skin feel. It also smells like a Saturday morning with freshly brewed coffee and homemade scones. Not sweet at all , but a lovely soft coffee scent highlighted by a touch of vanilla.A little history. I purchased this cream to appease my husband. He’s on this all natural, avoid all synthetic ingredients, kick and told me about how dangerous the scents and chemicals used to make women’s skincare products can be, up to and including cancer. He asked me to try a tallow based skincare so I did some research and came upon this product.My skin feels incredibly dewy and supple all day long. When they say a little goes a long way, they mean it. But damn, it feels so good going on it’s hard to not add just a bit more than you really need. I’ve not experienced a better or more effective moisturizer to-date and I’ve tried facial products ranging in price from $30-$300. The $30 ones left my skin feeling under moisturized and greasy looking at the same time and the $300 ones, while they smelled amazing and felt really nice and silky on my face, they also contained a lot of the ingredients that have been attributable to causing cancer.Fast forward to a month or so of using this product and I ask my husband to try it for some eczema and other dryness he’s been experiencing on his face. Boom – 2 days later he’s sold and wants a jar of his own. He’s been using it daily and he looks younger and better than he has in years (he’s 57). I haven’t received any comments or compliments on my skin since using this wonderful tallow cream, but I don’t think it’s considered polite to comment on a 58 yr old woman’s skin so I’m not surprised. However, based upon how my husband’s skin looks, and how wonderful my skin feels, I have to believe my skin looks better, too.This is probably the best product to help your skin return to its natural healthy state. I cannot recommend it enough. I bought a jar for my 30 yr old niece and she loves it too! How can the same product work well for a 30 yr old and a 58 yr old? Maybe it’s because this product is actually made from ingredients our skin recognizes? If you’re thinking about trying a tallow based skincare cream, this is it! I’m in love.

Buy this product.
I have really bad hormonal acne, and sometimes just random breakouts throughout the month. I have tried every skincare product known to man at this point. I was skeptical about beef tallow because I’ve seen mixed reviews, but I will try anything to clear up my acne. This is the ONLY product that has worked.You don’t need a lot of product for your face, and I don’t recommend using before applying makeup. I put a reasonable amount on before bed so the thickness doesn’t concern me.As soon as I wake up, my skin is noticeably more supple and soft. It does not have a heavy odor, it barely smells like anything.It took about a month of using this product every day to FINALLY have clear skin! It wasn’t a quick fix like how most acne skin care products are because it doesn’t dry your skin out so that’s how I know this is a really good, clean, effective product.I also started using it on my baby’s skin where there are little red bumps and they clear up almost immediately. I no longer use “baby creams” for his skin because I find this much more effective and natural. The smaller container lasted me more than a month, but since I will continue to use this for the foreseeable future, I went ahead and bought the bigger one too.I would say that this product would likely work for you even if you don’t have acne, but just dry or combination skin.I truly cannot be more grateful that I finally found an effective skin care product 🥹

Love the Whipped Tallow Balm
Wonderful product! I have dry skin and the Hearth & Homestead lavender whipped tallow balm hydrated my skin, better than several other lotions. My skin feels smooth and refreshed. I apply it both night and day, and a little goes a long way due to its thick, highly absorbent texture. The lavender is subtle, not overpowering, and it lasts a long time, making it a great value. Highly recommend!

10/10 Recommend – I’m a year+ ongoing user and fan of it!
Phenomenal product. I’ve been cycling through all the different “flavors” of this moisturizer for over a year now and I genuinely love them all. The scents are heavenly, the texture is soft and not too thick and oily. If you leave the lid unsealed, the whipped texture diminishes for sure (obviously), but it’s still easy and pleasant to use even then. A single standard container of this moisturizer lasts me about 2 months using morning and night each day (sometimes more often). From what research I’ve done, this is premier skin care if you want lasting, nutritient-rich moisturization that absorbs naturally and quickly into your skin and doesn’t have any additives, coloring, or anything that could irritate sensitive skin. I’m a huge fan and I will continue buying these for the foreseeable future!

Better than sunscreen.
Best product on the market. I am allergic to sunscreen, so a friend of mine told me to try whipped tallow balm. Not only did it protect my skin from the sun, it made it soft, moisturized, and hydrated. I spent a week at the river and only used heart and Homestead balm. My tan was fabulous and my skin so beautiful.

Worth trying out.
Trying to be in my beef tallow era as it is really good for your skin. Out of all the products I found on Amazon this one had the best reviews, the best ingredients and made in the US, also family made. I have really bad eczema, and I have unfortunately passed it on to my daughter she’s almost two now. Since birth I’ve been on top of keeping her moisturized to prevent itching/rashes, but if you have eczema you know how hard it is to find the right products that help soothe that itch and keep your skin moisturized. I myself have tried just about every kind of lotion, ointment, balm and oils out there to soothe my skin. Products with good ingredients is very important to me as I suffer with PCOS, and there’s a lot of store brands that have endocrine disrupters so i like to make sure to get products with quality ingredients for me and my daughter. That being said I decided to give this product a try. My thoughts, I really liked this product! I loved the texture, it’s not too thick and it melts perfectly into the skin super soothing. I make sure my skin is damp before applying so that it sets into my skin better. It has a faint smell, but it doesn’t really bother me. That being said again, I do have some dislikes, but only that it’s hella expensive and waaaaaaaaay to small. I’m pretty good about using expensive products sparingly, but both my daughter and I use this everyday so I’m literally about to run out and I feel like I just bought it like a week or two ago. As much as I like this I probably won’t be buying it to often it’s just to expensive.

Blue Emu Emuuuuuuu
Love the Blue Outback Australia for my face!! I didn’t see any reviews about this type, but I had heard good things about emu just prior. So I am here to leave that info once and for all, lol. I definitely see the difference from my coffee, and unscented jars. It makes my face glow all day, whereas the others take a second application if I have rubbed my face on something. It is a little more expensive, but I do see the value difference in the performance. Smells good too.My 50 year old face is looking so smooth, and my doctor said, “Your skin, its glowing, you look good, how are you?” Totally unsolicited! That was after a week! My mom usually thinks I spend too much on skin care and even she bought some. I hope it works for her at 85, fingers crossed. My mom said my skin looks like it has bounce to it. I am super happy with this product. Sometimes in the afternoon, I rub what is left of the Blue Outback, from morning, off my face and put it on my arms, JUST so I can put the coffee one on my face which smells sooooo good!X-factor: I have had acne alllllllll my life, even now. It does not cause ANY clogged poors. I still get a blip on my chin here and there, but much less than before, and the tallow definitely does not cause any!This stuff is perfect. 5 stars, 5 snaps, 5 curtsies……

Smells good enough to eat! Love it, just a bit expensive for little jar!
I am trying many beef tallow products out & this was the first. Pros: Upon opening the jar, it almost made me hungry it smelled so good! I chose this company being a small company, woman/family owned & based on the reviews. I found their packaging, ingredients etc to match what I was looking for as I have so many allergies to skin care products & immunity issues, I needed toblook into other solutions, and have been doing a lot of digging into what can be used fir my extremely dry & sensitive skin. I have used this product now for two weeks, and I am definitely happy with the absorbancy & smell. I am finding my skin needs more than others seem to need, and I am over 1/2 way through the jar. It’s obvious it is high quality ingredients, which one can appreciate. The cons are the har is quite small, and for the price, it is expensive for the amount. Fyi, I am using this on my face and neck. I would love to use it all over, but would use this one little jar after one shower if used all over. I am looking forward to trying other companies to see how they will compare. I am in my 50’s, have always taken care of my skin, and hope this company will consider a much larger jar for people like myself that love it, but their skin soakes it right up. It definitely feels better after using it & I feel a difference in dryness in particular. I am glad I have stepped into the world of natural, good old fashioned skin care. I have purchased soap and tallow from other small business vendors to compare & continue to do research. This is a good start & I will continue checking for larger jars, hoping to get a much bigger size (8 oz.?) & hope that will help both bring the price down and allow me to use it on more than just my face! Btw, it works great on your lips as well!!
