Pure, Nourishing Lip Care That Actually Works
Say goodbye to waxy, ineffective lip balms. Our Tallow Lip Balm delivers deep, lasting hydration using grass-fed beef tallow, nature's most skin-compatible moisturizer. Rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, this all-natural formula absorbs quickly, nourishes deeply, and keeps your lips soft and protected all day long.
The Lady May Tallow Story
Lady May Tallow started in our family kitchen with a simple mission: create skincare pure enough for our own children. As parents, we were frustrated by ingredient lists full of chemicals we couldn't pronounce and products that didn't deliver on their promises.
We discovered tallow—the nutrient-rich fat our great-grandparents used for generations—and were amazed by its effectiveness. Grass-fed beef tallow is remarkably similar to our own skin's natural oils, making it one of the most biocompatible moisturizers on earth. What began as homemade lip balm for our family has grown into a small business dedicated to bringing you skincare that's pure, effective, and rooted in ancestral wisdom.
Today, our Tallow Lip Balm is one of our best-loved products, trusted by thousands of customers who've experienced the difference real ingredients make.
Why Tallow for Your Lips?
Unlike petroleum-based lip balms that sit on the surface, tallow penetrates deeply to truly nourish and repair. Packed with essential fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins, it works with your body's natural processes to restore moisture, support healing, and protect delicate lip skin from the elements.
Simple, Powerful Ingredients
- Grass-Fed Beef Tallow: Rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, deeply moisturizing and biocompatible with human skin
- Beeswax: Creates a protective barrier while allowing skin to breathe, locks in moisture naturally
- Jojoba Oil: Lightweight and balancing, closely mimics skin's natural sebum
- Natural Flavors: Delicious taste without synthetic additives
Available in Four Delicious Flavors
- Citrus Burst: Bright, refreshing citrus that awakens your senses

How to Use
Apply generously to lips as needed throughout the day. The tallow-based formula absorbs quickly while providing long-lasting moisture. Use before bed for intensive overnight repair. Safe for all ages, including children.
What Makes Us Different
Most lip balms use petroleum jelly or synthetic waxes that create temporary relief but don't truly nourish. Our tallow-based formula actually feeds your lips the nutrients they need to stay healthy and hydrated naturally. No greasy residue, no chemical aftertaste—just pure, effective lip care.

Tallow FAQs
What is tallow?
Tallow has been used for centuries in skincare. With bioavailable vitamins A, B12, D, E, K, and various fatty acids, tallow helps soften, moisturize, and revitalize the skin.
Do your products have a "beefy" scent?
We get this question all the time and while it is very valid, the answer is no!
We use a wet-rendering process for all of our tallow products. This completely purifies the tallow, leaving it odorless, while maintaining the key nutrients and benefits for your skin!
How much tallow should I use?
A little goes a long way with our tallow products. Start by using the size of a penny and see if you need more! Tallow will soak into your skin and leave your skin barrier deeply moisturized.
How should I store my tallow products?
Store your moisturizer away from light and drastic temperature changes.
To maintain its original texture, store your moisturizer in a typical temperature-controlled environment (68-74 degrees). Extreme temperatures can cause the tallow to harden in cold conditions or melt in warm conditions. If this occurs, there's no need to worry; the moisturizer is still usable, but know the texture may change.
Can I use tallow if I have oily skin?
Yes! When the skin is excessively cleansed and stripped of its natural oils, it tends to overproduce oil. Using a high-quality moisturizer, like whipped tallow, can help maintain skin's moisture balance and prevent excess oil production.
Can I use tallow if I have acne-prone skin?
Yes! The antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and skin-repairing qualities of tallow can greatly benefit acne-prone skin.
What are the uses for tallow skincare?
There are many uses for your tallow skincare products.
Our products can be used for moisturizing the skin (face & body), diaper rashes, and eczema/other skin irritations.
Is this product organic?
Our tallow boasts a clean label with no artificial ingredients. However, it is not certified organic.
What part of the cow does the fat come from? Is it suet?
The fat we use primarily comes from the kidney area and loins of the cow. This specific type of fat is known as suet, prized for its purity and quality. Our "nose-to-tail sustainable farms" ensure that no fat goes to waste, utilizing all parts of the animal for their unique benefits for a premium blend of beef tallow.
Are the farms sustainable?
Yes, the farms we partner with focus on ethical practices that respect both the land and the animals. Every batch of our tallow carries the promise of sustainability and a nod to generations past.
Does this product need to be refrigerated?
No, the product is shelf-stable at room temperature. However, you can refrigerate or freeze it if you wish to extend the shelf life. Refrigeration will make the product harder, but many bakers prefer this consistency for creating flakier crusts.
Lady May lip balm is really nice and smooth and helps repair my chapped lips and keep it moisturized. Just a little pricey.
This stays at my bedside and hydrates my lips all night long.Our kids use this too.
Probably my favorite lip balm
now. It goes on very smooth not waxy like other brands I've tried. Quenched my chapped lips very quickly. Much needed for a chicago winter.
Perfect gifts! The balm was very luxurious. Everyone raved about how wonderful it felt on their lips one even mentions it helped her dry cuticles. The verity of "flavors" I went with everyone enjoyed as well. I would 100% come back to get more. Using the "push pop" method to get more is not the most idea in my opinion It's to easy to mistakenly push to hard and have way to much out, there's not really a great way to remedy it to get it back in. But I FULLY understand and support the reasoning behind a biodegradable tube. So just be super gentle when push popping up your favorite tallow balm🥰
I am absolutely in love with the Tallow Lip Balm!! Especially the Minty one! Its super moisturizing and not gritty feeling at all. It comes in a nice cardboard tube and easily fits in your pocket, purse or wherever. This was my 2nd time ordering the lip balm and I was super surprised opening my package! I was sent a complimentary jar of ONE unscented Tallow and a small bottle of Tallow Rosemary Garlic infused cooking oil! I'm super impressed with the ONE Tallow! It goes on so smoothly and it leaves your skin feeling great all day! Its not greasy feeling at all. I'm also super excited to try the cooking oil, as I cook all the time! Thank you so much for the extra goodies! Ill be ordering soon again I'm sure!!
Love this! Smells just like pina colada 😍 def recommend hydrates my lips!!! Amazing came with tallow gift! Love this shop
Promptly shipped, love the packaging and appreciate the free sample of the cooking oil. Looking forward to trying them all. Thanks so much. God Bless :)
I’m trying this one for the first time. So far so good. They also sent me a little cooking oil which I can’t wait to try. I’m so happy with this shop and will continue to come back!
Love, love, love! It's so soft and smooth, so hydrating! Definitely recommend!
All I have to say is that I was amazed at how well the lip balm came packaged and how big they were. Absolutely adorable! And it was such a nice treat to get the special gift as an added bonus. Thank you! I can’t wait till my children find them in their stockings. I will definitely order again!!
Product does not disappoint. Smells and tastes amazing. Keeps your lips soft. they use cardboard instead of plastic for the container so it isn’t a super tight fit, but to reconcile this I just wrapped a small piece of clear tape around the female side of the tube and it fits snug now
I’m in love with this lil balm it’s my favorite minty! Got one as a gift for a friend too!
Love your products so much best I’ve ever used
I only ordered one of the lipbalms and I was so suprised when a full box came in! Not only did it have my lip balm but also some freebies. 11/10
I ordered the tallow lip balm and I’m seriously in love with it—it’s super hydrating and leaves my lips so soft. The seller also included the nicest surprise: a free tallow face cream and garlic rosemary cooking oil! The face cream feels amazing on my skin—rich but not too heavy—and the cooking oil smells incredible. Everything was packaged beautifully and shipped quickly. You can tell so much care goes into these products. I’m so happy with my order and will definitely be back for more! 💕
