Tallow Balm — Revitalizing Citrus

$28.0050ml glass jar

Bright orange meets warm, woodsy cedarwood. An uplifting and grounding blend that invigorates the senses while deeply nourishing your skin with the power of grass-fed tallow.

Key Benefits

  • Uplifting Aroma: Orange essential oil brightens mood and promotes relaxation, while cedarwood grounds and soothes.
  • Antibacterial Protection: Both orange and cedarwood oils offer natural antibacterial properties that help keep skin clear and healthy.
  • Deep Hydration: Grass-fed tallow delivers vitamins A, D, E, K2, B12, and Omega 3s directly into the skin barrier.
  • Anti-Aging Support: Cedarwood's anti-inflammatory and astringent properties help restore skin and combat visible signs of aging.
  • Soothing & Calming: Orange oil soothes irritated and dry skin, making this blend perfect for daily use.

Ingredients

Handcrafted in small batches locally in Dungog with the following ingredients (50ml jar):

Australian Grass-Fed & Grass-Finished Beef Tallow and/or Suet

Our tallow is rich in fat-soluble vitamins and minerals like Vitamin A, D, E, K2, Vitamin B12, Vitamin B3, Omega 3s, and stearic acid. Stearic acid is known for its moisturising and anti-inflammatory properties.

Organic Cold-Pressed Olive Oil

The polyphenols found in our cold-pressed olive oil have antimicrobial properties, that maintain skin hydration and elasticity and help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Organic Jojoba Oil

Our organic jojoba oil has anti-aging properties, and it's a perfect addition for sensitive skin.

Organic Orange Essential Oil

Our orange essential oil is known to soothe irritated and dry skin. It has antibacterial properties and due to its aroma it can uplift mood and can promote relaxation.

Organic Cedarwood Essential Oil

Our cedarwood oil helps to ground, soothe, and balance irritated skin along with its anti-inflammatory and astringent properties that restore the skin and combat visible signs of aging.

Beeswax

Organic beeswax is rich in Vitamin A, which is essential for skin cell regeneration and repair.

The Scent

Revitalizing Citrus opens with bright, juicy orange — instantly uplifting and refreshing — then settles into the warm, woody depth of cedarwood. Think sun-warmed citrus groves bordered by ancient cedars. Energising yet grounded, it's the perfect morning ritual or midday reset.

Storage & Usage

  • Cleanse Your Skin: Start with freshly washed, dry skin.
  • Warm the Balm: Take a small amount and gently rub between your fingers to soften.
  • Apply: Massage into your face and neck using upward circular motions.
  • Night & Day: Use daily as part of your morning and evening skincare routine.
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

What to Expect

Because we use pure, organic ingredients and no synthetic stabilisers, every handcrafted batch is naturally its own — colour, texture and scent can shift subtly with the seasons and temperature. That small change is the signature of a truly natural product, and it never affects how well it works.

Sensitive Skin

Real skincare should be gentle enough for everyone. If you have sensitive or reactive skin — or new to tallow — we always recommend a quick patch test on a small area first, then wait 24 hours before your first full use.

“This citrus tallow balm is incredibly moisturising. It has been perfect for use on dry and sore lips in particular. I apply it right before bedtime, and when I wake up the next day it's as though my lips were never sore or cracked. It has also been perfect for use on dry heels and hands. I get dermatitis around my wedding band, and this tallow balm clears it up overnight. It is so nourishing and the citrus scent is lovely and mild.”

“Since I discovered Ancestral Traditions products at the Dungog Wholefood Co-op I have been using the orange scented beef tallow balm and found it very effective on dry skin.”
