Boutique Lip Balm- Sweet Vanilla

Tallow balm is a natural skincare product made from the rendered fat from grass-fed cows. Tallow has been cherished for centuries as a natural, deeply nourishing moisturiser. Unlike synthetic creams that sit on the skin, tallow closely resembles the skin’s own natural oils, allowing for superior absorption. This makes it incredibly effective at restoring hydration, soothing irritation, and supporting overall skin health.

Yes, its natural ingredients make it gentle for most skin types, even sensitive and eczema-prone. With no harsh chemicals, it’s less likely to irritate. If you’re unsure, start with a a small test area first.

Our tallow balm is made with rendered tallow from grass-fed cows, sourced from local Motueka farms, and blended with essential oils for a light scent and additional skin benefits. It’s simple, pure, and free of synthetic additives — just quality ingredients, handcrafted with care.

Yes — every ingredient in our balm is completely natural, with no synthetic additives, preservatives, or fillers. It’s made with care, using only what your skin truly needs. Simple, honest, and so pure you could eat it (though we recommend you don’t — it’s much better on your skin!)

Maemae Pure Tallow Balm remains fresh and effective for 12 months when stored with care. To preserve its natural goodness, we recommend keeping it in a cool, dry spot in your home, away from direct sunlight or strong heat.

Use it anywhere your skin needs care — face, hands, elbows, feet, or lips. The whipped texture makes it light and versatile, perfect for daily hydration or targeting dry, irritated spots. It’s a versatile and an all-in-one solution, crafted to do it all.

Tallow balm isn’t just skincare — it’s a return to what works. For centuries, people relied on tallow’s natural power to nourish skin, long before synthetic creams filled shelves with chemicals and empty promises. Loaded with vitamins A, D, E, and K, it feeds your skin what it craves, not a lab-made imitation. While other products pile on preservatives and fragrances that irritate or disrupt, this is pure and simple ingredients you could eat if you wanted to (though it’s better on your skin!).

Absolutely. Our tallow is sourced from small, local farms and we work directly with farmers we know and trust, using a resource that would otherwise go to waste — giving it new life as something nourishing and restorative.
