Gentle tallow balm is specifically formulated for delicate and sensitive baby skin.

Babies have sensitive skin that required gentle and calming ingredients that will deeply moisturise the skin without causing irritations.

Our Baby Protection Balm is a completely natural and safest option to use on precious baby skin.

Tallow is extremely compatible with our skin because it shares similar biology with the oils our skin naturally produces. This makes tallow the most effective natural moisturiser. It will nourish and deeply moisturise your baby's sensitive skin.

Just the right amount of natural unrefined beeswax provides perfect protection when used as a nappy balm. Olive oil provides anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.

To make it suitable for sensitive skin our Baby Protection Balm has a specific blend of gentle Chamomile and Marigold (Calendula) essential oils that are a staple of baby products for thousands of years.

Use it as a daily nappy protection balm or any part of the body.

Irish Beef Tallow

IRISH GRASS FED & FINISHED, PASTURE-RAISED BEEF TALLOW.

WHY BEEF TALLOW?

Tallow has been used in cosmetics for over 5000 years due to its high compatibility with our skin. It is the most effective natural moisturiser. Tallow is full of vitamins A, B12, D, E, and K. A unique combination found only in animal-based products.

For our tallow we use the highest quality beef suet from grass-fed & finished, pasture-raised Irish beef. Sourced locally & raised traditionally on local farms using regenerative agriculture practices. This means no grains, antibiotics or hormones are given to cows but also no pesticides and synthetic fertilisers in the soil. Cows raised as nature intended.

SOURCED FROM:

Local Irish farms where cattle graze freely on lush Irish pastures.

USED FOR:

More than 5000 years in face creams, soaps, deodorants, body creams...

HOW WE PROCESS IT?

At Ancestral Cosmetics, we clean and melt all our tallow in-house. We use only fresh suet, the purest fat from around the kidneys, sourced from Irish grass-fed, pasture-raised cows. Our full-time team hand-trims each piece to remove impurities before slowly rendering it in-house at low temperatures to preserve all the natural benefits of tallow.

This creates clean, skincare-grade tallow without the beefy smell or chemical treatments often found in industrial alternatives. This hands-on, high-integrity process ensures that every jar contains only the finest tallow, crafted specifically for skin.

Organic Olive Oil

COLD-PRESSED EXTRA-VIRGIN OLIVE OIL

WHY OLIVE OIL?

Cold-pressed olive oil is one of the most skin-compatible oils nature offers. Rich in squalene, polyphenols, and essential fatty acids, it deeply hydrates without clogging pores and helps calm irritation, flakiness, or sensitivity. Its natural antioxidants support skin repair and protect against environmental stress, making it especially nourishing for dry, reactive, or maturing skin.

For centuries, it’s been used to soften and restore, and for good reason. Your skin knows exactly what to do with it.

Unrefined Beeswax

PURE YELLOW BEESWAX

WHY BEESWAX?

Beeswax is a natural skin protectant that does more than just sit on the surface, it locks in moisture while still allowing the skin to breathe.

Unlike synthetic occlusives, beeswax forms a light, breathable barrier that shields skin from wind, cold, and dryness without clogging pores. It’s naturally rich in vitamin A, which supports skin cell turnover and promotes healing, making it especially helpful for dry, cracked, or sensitive skin.

Beeswax also helps stabilize and preserve the texture of the balm, giving it a smooth, velvety finish that melts into the skin on contact.

From ancient times to modern skincare, beeswax has remained a trusted ingredient for soothing, protecting, and nourishing all skin types, especially when paired with deeply healing fats like tallow.

Chamomile

PURE ESSENTIAL OIL

WHY CHAMOMILE?

Chamomile is one of nature’s most soothing botanicals, cherished for centuries for its ability to calm both skin and senses.

Naturally rich in azulene and apigenin, it gently reduces redness, inflammation, and irritation, making it ideal for sensitive, reactive, or dry skin. Whether dealing with rashes, eczema, or post-sun discomfort, chamomile helps restore balance and comfort without harshness.

Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties support skin healing at a cellular level, while its soft, floral aroma adds a quiet moment of calm to your daily ritual.

Chamomile is especially valued in ancestral remedies for its safety and gentleness, even for babies or delicate facial skin.

BOTANICAL NAME:

Anthemis Nobilis

ORIGIN:

France

Marigold (Calendula)

PURE ESSENTIAL OIL

WHY MARIGOLD?

Marigold, also known as calendula, is a powerhouse botanical long used in traditional remedies for healing damaged or inflamed skin.

Its petals are rich in flavonoids and triterpenoids, which help calm redness, reduce swelling, and accelerate skin regeneration. Calendula is especially effective for soothing eczema, rashes, and dry, cracked areas - making it a trusted ingredient for sensitive or compromised skin. Its natural antibacterial and antifungal properties also support skin that’s healing from minor cuts, irritation, or breakouts.

Gentle enough for daily use and even baby care, marigold brings a layer of herbal resilience to your skin, helping it recover, strengthen, and glow naturally.

BOTANICAL NAME:

Calendula officinalis

ORIGIN:

Egypt

Protected & soft like a baby

Your baby is precious. That's why we carefully developed our tallow balm with only the best natural ingredients to soothe and protect your baby's gentle skin.

Our baby balm is formulated for nappy protection but is suitable for any part of the baby's body.

Buttery soft!

This balm is so creamy and nurturing! My skin loves it! I don’t have a thyroid or parathyroid. I also have diabetes. My skin is extremely dry! This balm is helping very much!

All we use!

We put this balm on our baby’s booty before bed to create a barrier to go the night without a change (hopefully) and he never has a rash! Anytime he starts to even get a little red we add a little of this balm and it goes away. This stuff is so natural and perfect for little delicate skin! It’s nice to known what goes on your baby is clean and not full of nasty ingredients.

Best thing I bought for my baby!

I bought this originally for my baby as she is only 11 weeks old and I wanted a natural nappy balm, but I've used it to help get rid of her cradle cap , moisturize her dry skin and I now use it on my older two daughters. My husband also uses it on a scar he has on his leg and it has totally improved the redness. I would recommend this 1000 times, as I've told multiple Mammy's and friends to get it , thank you!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
