Unlike the rest of our skin which has a thick protective layer, our lips are more prone to dryness, absorbing everything you put on them and withstanding harsh weather conditions. That's why they require highly effective moisturisers and protectants.

Our long-lasting Tallow & Honey Lipbalm is a deeply moisturising, nourishing and repairing balm that seals moisture and keeps your lips protected the entire day.

Beef tallow is the most effective natural moisturiser and that makes it perfect to use on your lips. It will deeply hydrate even the most cracked and chapped lips.

Due to our special melting process and formulation, you don't have to fear beefy smell.

Our Original tallow & honey balm contains all-natural & minimally processed ingredients:

  • Grass-fed, pasture-raised Irish beef tallow, sourced locally from Irish farms
  • Locally sourced raw Irish honey
  • Natural unrefined beeswax
  • Pure essential oil of peppermint
  • Handmade in Ireland in small batches

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.

Raw Irish Honey

PURE, RAW, UNHEATED IRISH HONEY.

WHY HONEY?

Raw honey is a natural humectant, which means it draws moisture into the skin and helps hold it there. But it goes beyond hydration - honey is packed with enzymes, antioxidants, and antibacterial compounds that support skin healing and calm inflammation. It’s especially helpful for soothing acne-prone or irritated skin, reducing redness, and promoting a healthy glow without heaviness.

In traditional skincare, honey has been used for generations to treat wounds, soften rough patches, and balance the skin’s microbiome.

SOURCED FROM:

A local Irish beekeeper who harvests in small batches with care and respect for the bees. He follows sustainable, ethical practices that prioritize hive health and natural cycles over mass production.

USED FOR:

Used for centuries in skincare, prized for its healing, soothing, and moisturizing properties. Ancient Egyptians, Chinese, and Ayurvedic traditions all relied on it to treat and protect the skin.

HOW WE USE IT?

We use our honey raw, mixing it gently at low temperatures to preserve all of its natural enzymes, antioxidants, and skin-healing benefits. That means the honey stay raw in final product.

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.

Peppermint

PURE ESSENTIAL OIL

WHY PEPPERMINT?

Peppermint essential oil, steam-distilled from the leaves of the Mentha piperita plant, is a refreshing and invigorating oil known for its cooling, soothing, and clarifying properties.

Naturally rich in menthol, it provides an instant sense of relief to tired, irritated, or overheated lips while also helping to reduce inflammation and calm itchiness.

Its crisp, minty aroma energizes the senses, clears the mind, and promotes a feeling of freshness and clarity.

In skincare, peppermint oil is especially helpful for dry and cracked lips, offering both stimulation and balance in a single drop.

BOTANICAL NAME:

Mentha Piperita

ORIGIN:

USA

Hydration & protection with zero toxic chemicals

My new permanent lipbalm!

I used to use the yellow-and-red- brand for several years. However, I was not happy with the ingredients so I gave the Ancestral Cosmetics lipbalms a chance. Now I think I will keep using AC, because it not only works and feels good, I now know I am not poisoning myself with the lipbalm.

Tallow and honey face balm

I find it really excellent for moisturising my dry skin and I am not allergic to it like I have been to mentioned beauty products that cost so much more, and I can even use it around my eyes.I was paying £100 for Dermalogica but now I find this much better and my skin is much softer. I will be a life customer as I could not even touch my eyes with the Dermalogica. Also good for dry patches or eczema and is so effeftive
