Mineral Tallow Sunscreen — Small-Batch, Handcrafted Protection
Our Mineral Tallow Sunscreen is handcrafted in small batches using a blend of whole, nutrient-rich ingredients that your skin instantly recognizes. At its base is grass-fed and finished beef tallow, revered for its bioavailable vitamins (A, D, E, and K) and its incredible ability to nourish, soothe, and strengthen the skin’s natural barrier.
To enhance texture and add natural water resistance, we blend in pure beeswax—creating a breathable shield that stays put during sun-filled days.
A carefully balanced mix of coconut oil, jojoba oil, papaya seed oil, and raspberry seed oil delivers lightweight moisture and antioxidant support. These botanical oils are known for their ability to calm sun-exposed skin, promote softness, and provide a smooth, non-greasy finish.
For safe, effective sun protection, we use non-nano zinc oxide, a mineral sunscreen filter that sits on top of the skin rather than absorbing into it. Non-nano ensures larger particles for a cleaner and reef-friendly option while offering reliable broad-spectrum coverage.
No synthetics. No preservatives. Just whole, simple ingredients crafted with aloha.
Perfect for everyday wear or outdoor adventures. Gentle enough for sensitive skin, deeply nourishing for dry skin, and ideal for those seeking a clean, traditional, small-batch alternative to conventional sunscreens.
Ingredients: Grass fed & finished beef suet tallow, non-nano zinc oxide (20%), organic coconut oil, jojoba oil, beeswax, carrot seed oil, raspberry seed oil, organic papaya seed oil.
Tallow Zinc Mineral Sunscreen — How to Use
🌞 How to Apply
-
Start with clean, slightly damp skin — this helps reduce white cast and allows the balm to melt in more easily.
-
Warm a small amount between your fingertips.
-
Apply a thin, even layer over exposed skin.
-
With mineral zinc sunscreen, less is more — applying too thick will create unnecessary white cast.
-
Massage until it melts and blends into the skin’s natural tone.

🌺 Tips for Best Results
-
For face use, apply over your daily moisturizer to help it blend seamlessly.
-
Allow sunscreen to fully absorb before applying makeup.
-
Reapply every 2 hours during prolonged sun exposure.
-
Store out of direct heat — natural tallow balms soften easily in warm temperatures.

🌴 Important Notes
-
Mineral sunscreens work by sitting on top of the skin, not absorbing into it. A slight cast is normal but should be minimal when applied thinly.
-
Safe for sensitive skin and reef-friendly.
-
Avoid getting product into the eyes.
- Patch test if you have very sensitive or reactive skin
