Ingredients
Tallow (organic, grass-finished, suet)
Triple purified, grass-finished tallow is the ultimate hero ingredient for a strong skin barrier. It's rich in fatty acids (triglycerides); stearic acid, oleic acid and palmitic acid, allowing for deeply penetrated absorption to lock in moisture and deeply hydrate the skin, reducing dry and flaking skin, making it highly sort after for conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. Tallow aids the stratum corneum to maintain a strong barrier that will hold in nutrients and moisture for soft, plump, healthy skin.
Jojoba (organic, cold-pressed)
Jojoba oil is not technically an oil, rather a liquid wax, it closely mimics our skin's natural sebum, allowing for deep absorption without any greasiness. Jojoba is one of the most beneficial remedial oils for psoriasis and eczema, as it promotes healing, reduces irritation, and is very kind on sensitive skin (low irritant). As jojoba is so close to our natural sebum, it helps to balance oil production and is non-comedogenic, meaning it won't block pores. Jojoba is one of the essential natural oils for skincare as it's own benefits are copious but it also helps other remedial ingredients to deliver results by pulling them deeper into the skin.
Non-nano zinc oxide
Non-nano zinc oxide is a natural anti-inflammatory found in the mineral zincite. It is the perfect rash treatment for the same reason it's the base of natural sunscreens - it's larger particle size means it sits on top of the skin surface rather than being absorbed, creating a protective barrier that not only repels sun radiation and provides coverage from UVB & UVA rays, but also locks in moisture for increased hydration and reduced dry, flakey skin. It's important to note non-nano zinc oxide only upholds sun protection if it is formulated correctly and in correct formula % like it is in this balm.
Calendula (organic, steeped via slow, sun infusion)
Power extracted straight from the petals, calendula petals are known to soothe the skin due to their flavonoid content such as quercetin and rutin, proven antioxidants and anti-inflammatories that help reduce itching and erythema, redness in the skin.
Coconut oil (organic, extra-virgin)
Rich in saturated fats lauric acid, caprylic acid, and capric acid, coconut oil is gentle on the skin whilst having intense hydrating benefits and the ability to replenish moisture in dry skin fast. Coconut oil is a light weight, non-greasy emollient that reduces inflammation and soothes rashes, it has antimicrobial properties that assist in healing wounds and keeping the skin clean.
