Tallow Balm Review (Plus a Funny Story!)

Honest Tallow Balm Review

And A Funny Story About Tallow's Effectiveness 

When I was pregnant with my second child, I was growing at a bit faster of a pace than the first time around. So we decided to get an ultrasound to make sure that there was only one baby coming. We get our appointment and go to get the ultrasound. 


I lay down on the bed and pull my shirt up so the technician can start the ultrasound. Before any ultrasound, they always have to put goo on your belly. She squirts the goo on my belly, and instead of it staying where it landed, it slid right off my belly, all the way to the bed. We all stared, dumbfounded while the technician persistently applied more goo on my stomach, and we all watched it start to make its escape. 


“What is on your belly?!” she asked as she caught the goo with the ultrasound wand and proceeded with the the ultrasound. Ben and I looked at each other. 


“Tallow,” I said, just as surprised as she was. I had been applying tallow balm (tallow, olive oil, and a little essential oil) to my stomach everyday to avoid getting any stretch marks from being pregnant again, and didn’t realize this super side effect— I was now waterproof. 


Tallow is the perfect moisturizer because it mimics the natural oils our skin makes. It softens dry skin, and rough spots. 


In November, I restarted a daily application of tallow balm on my face and hands, as well as anywhere that seemed like it needed some moisture. I’ve always had sort of bumpy, easily reddening skin, especially on my cheeks, neck, and arms. Since I started using the tallow regularly, the redness has reduced, my face and arms feel silky, and I definitely feel like it moisturizes better than any other lotion that I used before. 


If you struggle with dryness, acne, eczema, or just want a penetrating moisturizer with only three clean ingredients, here's the best one!


I had such a beneficial experience with tallow healing my skin that my husband and I decided to sell the highest quality tallow balm ourselves. 


Noaic Balm uses grass-fed beef tallow (only from the suet), from small sustainable farms in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. They use organic extra virgin olive oil that is solely sourced from Greece, and CPTG essential oils. This is clean as it gets!
