Okay, so I’ve been using this beef tallow balm for about a month now, and wow. Just wow. My skin has never felt this soft and hydrated. I was skeptical at first because, well, beef tallow? On my face? But it works like magic.
I have combo/acne-prone skin (ugh), and this stuff doesn’t break me out. In fact, it seems to calm my skin down. No weird reactions, just happy, plump skin. The texture is rich but absorbs super fast—no greasy residue like some lotions leave behind.
Now, the scent… yeah, it’s there. It’s not perfumey (which I actually appreciate), but there’s a faint natural smell from the olive oil and tallow. Not offensive, just… earthy? My dogs definitely noticed it though—they were *very* interested in my hands after application. Hilarious but also kinda weird.
Pro tip: Scoop a little out and warm it between your fingers first—it whips up nicely and spreads like a dream. A little goes a long way!
The only downside? The price is steep for such a small jar. But given how effective it is (and how clean the ingredients are), I’ll probably repurchase. Maybe even try another scent next time!
