Let customers speak for us
Amazing product that does exactly what it says on the tin .. I have been using the honey and clarifying balm for over a month now and it has given me a new lease of life when it comes to confidence in my aging process .. I am 61 years old
I have been using the tallow and honey balm for a few weeks. The results are incredible. I’m 46 and I feel like this product has turned back time.
My skin feels hydrated, smooth, and my age spots have disappeared. Highly recommend for all ages. Perfection in a jar.
Loving it so far! Skin is definitely more supple and less dry and ive only been using it a week! Smells absolutely delicious too! Recommend!
I had to come here to leave this review because I'm so obsessed with this product!
Let me start by saying I have spent hundreds of dollars this year trying to find the right moisturizer that doesn't require a whole product line to see some results.
I'm 39 and my skin has started to change. It's more dry and I really have to use a lot of moisturizer + primer to get an even application of my makeup. I have been searching for something simple that didn't leave my skin oily.
I saw Ancestral Cosmetics advertised on Instagram and I decided to give it a shot. It had good reviews, was priced fairly, and i love the idea of natural ingredients. I tried it a few times and I'm obsessed!
-the scent is amazing
-you only need a tiny bit and it just melts right into your skin (i warm mine up in my hand first before applying)
-i use this under my makeup up and get the most even application AND i can smell it under my makeup up!
I will definitely be ordering again!
Delighted with this product. My daughter suffers with really bad eczema. I noticed an improvement after just one use. After 4 days of use there was a significant improvement of her skin. I have started using it on my face and dry patches. It's a fabulous product. I have already re-purchased a number of jars to make sure I always have some in stock. Photos were taken 3 days apart. I didn't take a picture before using the product so this picture was taken after first use.
This stuff is fantastic! I use it on my face and hands. since this is the unscented version, there is a slight tallow smell when first applied, but that quickly goes away. It has made my skin so soft and gotten rid of my dry patches. Even my sister noticed and asked me what I was doing differently!! She took my hand and looked at it because she said she noticed how the light was reflecting off of it. I said it’s the tallow balm!!
I was hesitant to try a new product for my face, especially at the price point this is at. I have been using this for a full month now, and have used maybe 1/6 of the jar. Seriously a tiny tiny amount (pea size) goes a long way, the moisturizing benefits are insane. Very emollient, does not leave me greasy, I live in Alaska and it is dry as heck here in the winter. This has been a game changer for me and my dry skin. Have definitely noticed a difference in the overall appearance and health of my skin, I can go without wearing foundation now which is incredible. I have noticed great glow, healthy complexion, chin/jawline acne has pretty much disappeared. I am a lifetime buyer now and definitely excited to look for body products. For reference I am 38, female, very dry and hormonal skin. Buy buy buy this stuff. I will easily get months out of one jar, so the price is absolutely worth it
Love your products but ordered this originally for my 9 year old she licks her lips and nothing works ! She has sore broken lips so we thought this would help as she can take her pot into school ! And it does all cleared up and she loves the feel taste and smell of it ! I’ve been using it makes your lips so soft and it will defo be an all round staple for us now ! Amazing 10/10 my mum has just ordered some and your tallow cream for her hands too !she uses it morning with tallow balm for skin and couple of times in school and of a evening and it cleared her lips up in about 3 days x
First of all I want to thank Mihael for the absolute best costumer service, as I firstly purchased the ‘Unscented Tallow and Honey Balm’ and didn’t work for the type of issue on my face. However he offered me their ‘Clarifying Cream’ with no extra charge, and I’m absolutely thankful for that.
I’ve attached a compilation of how my face has looked throughout these years, nothing would work for me, I’ve spent thousands and I swear nothing would work, there was always a breakout, itchiness, etc. Second compilation are photos from this week some of them on direct sunlight, I cannot put into words how different I feel and look. Still have some spots due to many years of picking my face but how quickly these spots are fading is astonishing. Thanks for this cream.
Long story short, I SEVERLEY damaged my skin barrier by overusing topical actives to the point my skin burned with anything applied. After deciding to go back to the bare minimum and only tallow as my day/night product and we have healing!!! Not perfect by any means,but better than it was 2 months ago. Let this be a visual reminder to not be afraid of smile, primal, but effective. Thank you all, and thank you unscented honey tallow!
My girl and I love all the products. The original honey and tallow balm works wonders, quickly. She’s obsessed with that one. I’m obsessed with the tanning oil. The sun screen balm with tallow and zinc is wonderful for the face and absorbs nicely. We just ordered the new black seed oil clarifying cream and are excited to add it to our skin care regime. Point is, we love this company and their all natural products! Tallow for the win.
Me and my husband have been looking for natural skin care and oral health. This product does not disappoint. I have chronic dry lips and the lip balm is amazing. The face cream smells great! And the sun balm works on our 4 year old daughter!!!!
It took two weeks for my skin to adjust to the Tallow balm, no it didn't completely magically resolve my hormonal acne instantly but it has made it SO MUCH BETTER! This works better than my retinol without fading my freckles. It also got rid of my acne scarring faster than Retinol and made my smile lines shallower in only a month. I love this product and recommend it to all my gals with difficult skin.
I love this product so much. My rosacea is calming and my skin feels plump and healthy. I’m 53 1/2!!! I use this morning and night on my face and décolleté.
It smells so good too!!! I will purchase over and over!!!!
I’ve been searching and searching for a moisturizer that keeps my face hydrated and dewy all day and this is the stuff right here. I’ve tried every cream from Sephora to Pharmacy Store but nothing quite did the job perfectly I always ended up having to re add or having to just deal with dryness on the skin but only the smallest amount keeps my face and body so moisturized. I’m obsessed with this I use it everywhere I see any dryness on the skin but mainly my face has never felt and looked this great. I am totally a forever customer.

Natural butter extracted from cacao beans growing on the cacao trees. It is one of the best natural ingredients to use in skincare as it's deeply hydrating and prevents the skin from drying out.
-
Organic Castor Oil
Castor Oil has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. It's extremely effective in cleansing, purifying and detoxifying while nourishing the skin.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FAQ
How does Ancestral Cosmetics Tallow Deodorant work?
Our deodorant works by neutralising bacteria that are the main cause of body odour. Gentle ingredients like magnesium hydroxide and non-nano zinc oxide neutralise bacteria that are causing body odour and ingredients like arrowroot powder help to absorb the sweat instead of stopping the body from sweating.
Does Tallow Deodorant contain aluminium?
No, tallow deodorant doesn’t contain aluminium. It also doesn’t contain any toxic chemicals, parabens, toxic preservatives, triclosan, artificial fragrances, refined seed oils or petroleum-based ingredients.
Is Tallow Deodorant an antiperspirant?
No, Tallow Deodorant is NOT an antiperspirant. Antiperspirants usually contain aluminium that completely prevents the sweat, blocking the pores and trapping the sweat (and toxins) in your body.
This prevents the natural detoxification process and can cause health issues. Tallow deodorant neutralises odour-causing bacteria and helps to absorb sweat, keeping you smelling good while not disrupting the body's natural detoxification processes.
I am still sweating while using deodorant, is this normal?
Yes, sweating is a normal and healthy way for our body to detoxify itself and it shouldn’t be prevented. Our deodorant won’t stop you from sweating but active ingredients inside will help to absorb the sweat keeping you dry most of the time.
However, everybody sweats differently and some people sweat more than others so they may need a different approach or more regular application. If you struggle to stay dry or if you just prefer drier pits, we recommend applying 2-3 swipes every 3-4 hours.
How often can I apply my deodorant?
We recommend 2-3 gentle swipes 1-2 times per day but if you want drier pits, you can reapply it every 3-4 hours.
Does tallow deodorant contain baking soda?
No, our tallow deodorant doesn’t contain baking soda.
Do you use perfume (fragrance) in your formula?
No, we don’t use perfume or fragrance oils in our deodorant.
Our scented deodorants are made with a blend of 100% pure essential oils and our unscented deodorant is essential oil free.
I am sensitive to essential oils, what deodorant should I choose?
Our Unscented Deodorant has been created for people sensitive to essential oils or looking for a neutral scent in their deodorant. It is formulated without any essential oils and has a natural scent.
How to apply tallow deodorant?
- Hold to pit to soften for 5-10 seconds with your hand (or hold the deodorant on your armpit).
- Swipe down 2-3 times
- Smell great
For external use only. Skin sensitivities may occur. Do not apply directly after shaving. Do not over-apply or use on broken skin. Keep out of reach of children.
How long will one deodorant last?
One deodorant tube should last between 2-3 months depending on the use.
My deodorant is too hard, what do I do?
Our deodorant is made from only natural ingredients and as such can be more susceptible to temperature changes. It is normal for tallow deodorant to be slightly harder during colder months. To soften it, hold it on the pits for 5 seconds or longer if needed and then give it a swipe.
Is this deodorant going to stain my clothes?
Our deodorant won’t stain clothes if applied correctly. We recommend applying the deodorant after putting on your clothes. 2-3 swipes is all it takes so don't overdo it.
Store it at room temperature, away from sunlight to make sure your deodorant has the right structure to use.
Why are you using plastic packaging instead of cardboard for your deodorant?
While cardboard deodorant tubes are being touted as a sustainable alternative they come with some significant drawbacks.
The cardboard is not waterproof nor oilproof which means the product would leak out unless the tube is lined from the inside with a water/oilproof liner. So cardboard tubes come with a thin plastic (or soy paper) liner on the inside, similar to paper coffee cups.
This hair-thin liner has a much higher potential to melt and leak into the product when a hot deodorant is poured in than hard plastic containers do.
Manufacturers of these cardboard tubes often try to hide the contents of the liner itself, which often contains questionable chemicals like BPA or BPS, even though they are promoted with nice sounding names such as "soy paper liner".
At the same time, those cardboard containers are just a pain to use as deodorant needs to be pushed up with a finger, leading to overusing or wasting deodorant, and messy containers that get banged up when travelling or taking your deodorant to the gym.
So our conclusion was that cardboard tubes are neither healthier nor more sustainable in the long run compared to virgin plastic tubes we use.
How to switch to Tallow Deodorant?
Transitioning from commercial deodorant to a natural one is more than just a swap—it’s a way to let your body breathe and return to its natural state.
