Citrus Shine Tube Tallow Balm

I was quite skeptical, but wow this stuff is great, I'm sold for life. I liked the explanations they give on their website about how they source, sort, clean, do their own rendering, etc. They even list the farms they buy from!And quite apart from all that, the salve makes my hands feel the way I WANT my hands to feel after moisturizing. Just like my hands used to be before covid, when I started washing my hands way more often. When that died off a little, I moved into a house where there are a lot of really adorable and clean animals, but still... I end up washing my hands all the time, since I don't want to be rubbing my eyes with animal dander and hair etc. The handwashing all the time continues, and I'm SO glad to have this stuff. One container lasts forEVer, it took a good while to go through the 'lip stick' version of this. I didn't finish it all the way b/c I bought a 2 oz pot of it before I could.After just a couple minutes, it sinks into the skin and is not noticeable any more, no persistent greasy feeling unless you overdo it like a LOT. If I do that accidentally, buffing with a dry or moist hand towel takes care of it, and the overall feeling is really nice.I adore peppermint, and while this is not intensely minty, I think the mint must do a great job covering any tallow smell, because I've only ever caught the faintest whiff of that (while overdoing it, mostly). I cannot speak to the other scents/unscented, but I doubt they smell worse, really.This has saved my dry cracky hands and lips, and also helped with some dry skin issues on my face and elbows. Cannot recommend it enough!The texture may be a little grainy, depending on what the storage/shipping conditions were like, mine is SUPER grainy, but I don't give a &@#, because that doesn't matter at all. Works amazing anyway. Once it melts onto your skin, it's heaven.

Day one and I'm impressed. I had an allergic reaction to Noosa yogurt (which uses wildflower honey) and after the swelling on my lips went down, they became dry and cracked. All my other chapsticks would sting and provided no relief. I bought this and it came quickly. I bought the vanilla bean scent and it smells neutral. Ever so slightly vanilla. My boyfriend tried it also and instantly loved it, commenting "all chapsticks make me feel like they just leave a film on me, but this feels like it's actually moisturizing." This chapstick has given me sweet relief from my dry lips and I'm so excited to see how it works in the long-run to improve my overall lip health.

This lip balm is the best I ever had or used. It’s amazing and keeps your lips feeling smooth and definitely not dry. I’ve dealt with severely chapped lips in the past until I started regularly using this product. I mean my lips were so chapped I thought something was wrong with me or I had allergic reaction. If you want your lips to heal and feel great and you want smooth silky lips then use this product.

This company really stands by their product! Especially with willing to help me out as a customer when I got a my product and there was a problem with it they made sure to correct the issue then also I didn’t expect but sent new product out right away all while checking in to make sure I was apart of each step. Not just the customer service but I love this lip tallow and will be a lifetime customer.

First of all, let me say that this feels wonderful on your lips and makes your lips SO SOFT! If you can get it on lips!I’m not sure if I just received a a tube that had quality issues or if it’s supposed to be super crumbly and rough when you’re trying to apply it to your lips.The first time I tried to use it directly on my lips it was too rough. I tried to warm it up by putting my finger on top but that didn’t work either so I decided to try and just go slowly. Sure enough a bunch crumbled off the top and fell to the floor!The next time I tried I held a Kleenex under so I could catch the crumblies… I now have a Kleenex with crumblies I’ve been using instead of the tube. What a pain!The only reason why I haven’t returned it is this stuff works so much better than chapstick or EOS or literally anything on the market aside from Vaseline! Plus it has no harsh chemicals in it. I might try a different flavor tube next time and see if that makes a difference. This was the citrus one. 🤷🏼‍♀️

So far I think this product is okay. It doesn't appear to have any vanilla scent and it smells like beef fat. The scent doesn't particularly bother me, but I'd prefer an actual vanilla scent. The balm itself isn't particularly spreadable, but it is still okay. I would prefer something that feels smoother and more spreadable, but that is probably due to the tallow itself not the product. It doesn't feel particularly moisturizing on my lips, but so far it does seem to be offering an adequate amount of moisturization. Perhaps over time it will keep my lips more moisturized compared to traditional chapstick. I haven't been using this product for very long yet, so I do not have a definite opinion on this product yet. I will have to experiment more and see how well it keeps my lips moisturized. My lips do seem softer from using it. What I do like is that it's made of high quality ingredients and nothing artificial. There isn't many chapsticks made of tallow on the market, so it is nice that this company is offering a unique product. I wanted to start using lotions made of tallow since it appears to be better for your skin compared to traditional chapstick and lotion so I hope that over time this product will provide better results compared to traditional moisturizing products. I am interested in trying the other products offered by this brand.
