Ancestral Cosmetics' Original Tallow & Honey Balm

I like the ethos of this small business. Great product that I've been using for several months now. Easy to order and item has been packaged well and dispatched promptly on each occasion. More recently I've set up a subscription, and they have a very user-friendly website that allows you to make changes to your subscription details as required. Really appreciate this feature when compared to my experience with other equivalent businesses. The product itself looks and feels like a quality product and I would happily recommend. Caveat: I always find tallow products in general much greasier than the advertising often suggests; bear this in mind, although there are ways of masking this to a certain extent.

Tried this product, recommended by my son as my face was acting up ! Was reacting to any usual product I was using suddenly and was patchy, itchy and dry. Using this calmed my skin and there you go .. so far so good 😊 my skin liked it. Thank you

Amazing tallow balm

I’ve struggled for years with dry, tight feeling skin, been using the balm for around 3 weeks and my skin is so soft and smooth! Worth every penny as you really only need a tiny bit.
I’ll definitely be re ordering and ordering other products in the range. Thanks guys

The best skincare I’ve found

Can’t say enough about this cream. It’s easily absorbed, nice texture and leaves your skin plumped and soft.

kkleyer (Chesterfield, US)
Best face cream for daughter and me!

This face cream is a MUST HAVE for my 14-year-old daughter and 52-year-old self. It helps to stop breakouts as they're starting so they're never a problem. It also helps with fine lines/wrinkles for me and we both feel like our skin feels amazing. We've both tried so many products over the years and are so glad we found this clarifying cream thanks to my sister's recommendation!

Tallow Body Cream & Honey Balm

I’m so glad I found this range of products and think I’ll always use them. The tallow & honey balm is my favourite - it smells amazing and I apply it morning & night and the result is my skin looks healthy & glowing. I can’t imagine ever going back to the products I’ve used in the past.

Great product!

It is all I use on my face. It is all I need really! Great product!

Fabulous

Love the feel of this on my skin and knowing it’s all natural products is a bonus - only started using it so can’t comment on results yet but so far am loving it

K
Tallow Sun Balm
KATSUNY (New York, US)
Amazing product!!

I’m so glad I found these products. I have used the Tallow & Honey Balm on my face twice a day to curb the dry and itchy skin issues I particularly have during the cold/winter season. I absolutely also love the Tallow Sun Balm when I step outside, it provides the coverage I need to feel protected in the sun and easily also provides a base for my makeup if I need it. Will be ordering more for my family as holiday gifts!

Tallow Body Cream
Roshan Hardin (San Jose, US)
My skin craves this tallow

I use the tallow and black seed oil face tallow once to twice A DAY religiously, and recently started using the body tallow a couple times a week - my skin craves the silky smooth hydration that lasts. Dry lips - I reach for my tallow. Dry hands - I reach for my tallow. You get the picture. Finding these two products have replaced the need to have a shelf or purse full of stuff. Love the light scent, and that it absorbs so nicely.

Natural alternative

Really enjoying this natural moisturiser! My skin has been feeling awfully dry and sore with the cooler weather coming in, yet the moment I apply this balm my skin feels comfortable, soft and hydrated. Feels even better knowing that I am caring for my skin with natural ingredients! Would highly recommend this business and their products! Thank you Renata & Mihael, I'll be returning for more!

Makes a real difference

The suppleness of my skin is improving. Particularly noticeable on my arms and legs. I absolutely love the glow it leaves too.
