Whip Summer Fields Tallow Balm 100ml

Whip Summer Fields Tallow Balm is inspired by summer days walking through fields of wildflowers, running your fingers along the tops of flowers and enjoying the gentle summer breeze.

Made from just 4 pure ingredients – 100% grass fed and finished Australian beef tallow, organic cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil, and essential oils of mandarin (Citrus reticulata) and balm mint-bush (Prostanthera melissafolia).

Whip is pure, gentle, and has amazing skin-soothing properties. Perfectly safe for all ages, but always do a test patch first.

Common Uses for Whipped Tallow Balm

See this article for what some of our customers have used our Whip Tallow Balms for.

Tallow is incredibly compatible with our natural skin biology and with the oils that our body naturally produces. You’ll notice the moment you spread the tallow on your skin that it goes to work straight away. You’ll feel the tallow melt into your skin, leaving a fully moisturised feel but without the greasiness in a matter of moments. A little goes a long way, so only use just enough!

Why tallow?

Tallow is naturally filled with goodies for your skin:

• Alpha linoleic and linoleic acids (omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids) – In almost a 1:1 ratio, these maintain the structure and barrier function of the skin. Very helpful anti-inflammatory and immune responses in skin.
• Vitamins A, B12, D, E, and K – All highly nourishing for skin. This combo of vitamins is only found all together in animal products.
• Stearic acid and oleic acid – Fatty acids found in the outer layer of the skin and in our natural sebum. They’re regenerative, softening, moisturising, and anti-inflammatory. Stearic acid helps to repair the skin and improve flexibility, while the oleic acid helps all of these beneficial nutrients penetrate deeply into the skin.
• CLA or Conjugated Linoleic Acid – Packed with powerful anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial benefits.
• Palmitoleic acid – One of the basic building blocks of our skin that decreases as we age. It’s a very active antimicrobial on our skin.
• Palmitic acid – Improves smoothness of skin and helps with skin barrier function. Palmitic acid decreases as we age.

Storage & Shelf Life

Whip Tallow Balm will last for 6-12 months if stored in a cool dry place and free from contaminants.

Tallow melts at 37 degrees C so if you leave it in the car on a hot day it will melt and the oils may separate. If this happens, all is not lost. Simply bring your Whip back to room temperature and stir the ingredients back together. If your tallow balm has lost its fluffiness, you can whip it again with the hand beaters to get that famous Whip consistency.
