Lip + Cheek Balm: Jasmine

Made with Alberta grass-fed suet tallow, this thick balm works wonders for cracked lips, under your eyes, as a thick moisturizer, on your face to protect yourself from harsh weather, or for cracked hands. In addition, the jasmine gives it a light, but sweet and romantic scent, making this balm a relaxing experience for your senses.

The formulation takes all the benefits of our All-Purpose Tallow Balm while adding extra properties to thicken it up and seal in moisture. It not only gives instant relief, but it also works to heal your skin. The beeswax acts as a humectant, meaning that it attracts and locks in moisture. The exotic jasmine oil compliments the mix as it moisturizes and increases cell turnover.

Instructions: Use as a lip balm, as a balm for cracked hands, as an undereye cream, a thick moisturizer, or to protect your face from extreme cold, wind, or heat. A little goes a long way! Ensure that you store your balm between 18 and 23 degrees Celsius. Storing it at high temperatures can cause it to melt and potentially lose its original consistency.

Ingredients: grass-fed suet tallow, beeswax, non-GMO avocado oil, organic cold-pressed simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) oil, styrax benzoin (benzoin) oil, jasminum grandiflorum (jasmine) oil, grapefruit seed extract 

Grass-fed Alberta Suet Tallow
Grass-fed Suet Tallow is another word for purified beef fat. It is used in skincare because it has similar properties to our skin’s natural sebum and is rich in oleic acid. This means that it is highly compatible with absorbing into our skin on a cellular level, making it incredibly hydrating and nourishing. When prepared properly it is also non-greasy.

It is ideal for those on both ends of the skin spectrum:

It benefits those with skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, rashes, burns, scarring, and dry skin, because it restores the skin’s natural barrier to bring it back into balance and harmony.

Its balancing properties also make it beneficial for conditions related to oily skin because it helps regulate our sebum to prevent breakouts.

Beeswax
Beeswax is beneficial for the skin because it creates a protective layer over the skin while also acting as a humectant, meaning that it both attracts and locks in moisture. It is used in skincare to lock in the moisturizing and beneficial properties of the product and keep the skin hydrated and nourished over longer periods of time. It is also non cosmogenic meaning that it does not clog pores.

Organic Cold-Pressed Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Oil
This oil is derived from the seeds of the jojoba plant. It is technically not an oil, but a wax ester meaning that it has a similar structure and composition to sebum, making it the perfect ingredient to balance out your skin’s complexion - it protects and moisturizes the skin without clogging your pores or leaving a greasy feeling. In addition, it has low levels of polyunsaturated fats as compared to other oils, meaning that it is more stable and less prone to oxidization, thus making it the ideal addition to our tallow-based product lines that prioritize this type of fat composition.

Jasminum grandiflorum (jasmine) oil

Jasmine oil is a luxurious exotic oil that has a delicate, sweet, and romantic scent to it. The scent of jasmine is said to be both an aphrodisiac as well as an overall mood up-lifter. This oil is an antibacterial, it is calming, it soothes eczema/extremely dry skin, heals scars, and evens the skin one. It also works to increase cell turnover.
