SENSITIVE TALLOW BALM
Ultra-gentle & Restorative
Sensitive was created in response to many requests for a daily moisturizer suitable for delicate, reactive, easily irritated and extremely dry skin.
Calendula blossoms grown at Mending Roots, a local herb farm in the West Kootenays, are infused into our tallow rendered from beef suet from Tarzwell Farms in Creston, BC. Used traditionally to ease inflammation and commonly known to soothe irritated skin, calendula brings time tested herbal care to this balm.
Leaf lard from pasture raised pork at Cutter Ranch in Fort Steele, BC, completes the blend. These two traditional fats are highly compatible with human skin and work together to nourish, protect and support the skin’s natural barrier.
We hope those with eczema prone, sensitive or irritated skin will find comfort in this restorative balm, brimming with locally sourced and traditional ingredients.
Suitable for face and body use, including babies’ delicate skin and diaper area. A small amount melts in easily, providing lasting moisture and care.
Essential oil and beeswax free.
