Daily Tallow Starter Kit
A bright, uplifting daily moisturizer. The Primal Fresh Tallow Body Lotion blends 100% grass-fed, grass-finished tallow with organic jojoba oil and a crisp scent of orange, bergamot and cedarwood. Naturally rich in vitamins A, D, E and K, it sinks in to soften dry skin without feeling greasy. Lighter than our whipped balm, it's a smooth, fast-absorbing lotion in an easy pump bottle for everyday use, head to toe. Double-purified so there's no beefy smell, just a fresh citrus-cedarwood lift.
Sourced from local regenerative farms, our tallow is rich in vitamins A, D, E and K, providing deep nourishment and lasting hydration for your skin and lips.
100% organic jojoba oil hydrates naturally by mimicking your skin’s own oils, keeping moisture balanced and improving elasticity—helping reduce signs of aging!
Dr Elizabeth Bright: As a doctor, I avoid commercial skincare, but The Primal cream and soap are different - just a few clean, trusted ingredients. It’s luxuriously smooth with a refreshing cedarwood tingle, and it’s now my go-to after mornings in the sun.
Dr Robert Kiltz: I love it! Another 100% clean product to add to my list!
Courtney Luna: My skin eats better than most people - these products are basically bougie steak fat for your face, and my skin is obsessed!
Maria Emmerich: Living on the beach is awesome but it can be hard on your skin! My boys and I love to spend our days in the ocean but afterwards their ashy skin would get irritated and painful to moisturizers. Even the “natural” lotions would cause irritation on their sensitive skin. That’s why when I found The Primal tallow based body balm, I was so happy! My boys finally didn’t fight me when I had them apply lotion after swimming! The Primal has been a game changer for my boys sensitive skin!
Jenny Mitich: I am very picky about what I put on my skin, and The Primal’s tallow products have become an absolute staple for me. They’re simple, nourishing, incredibly moisturizing, and they leave my skin feeling soft without all the junk I try to avoid. I genuinely love having a skincare option that feels this clean, ancestral, and effective.

The tallow cream doesn’t leave you feeling all greasy and provides far more moisture than commercial lotion. Tallow soaps leave you feeling clean without all the chemicals in regular soap. I’ve also tried other tallow soaps and only use the Primal now.
Love it! I’ve had it for three weeks and use it every day. I can already tell it’s going to last me for months. I love that it not only keeps my lips hydrated, but I’m also getting vitamins A, D, E, and K!
Scrubs my body well while still feeling gentle on the skin
Soap doesn’t dry skin out and the scrubber it comes in is not too harsh.
This is my 3rd jar, and they last a very long time. Love this clean product. It blends into my skin beautifully and I get compliments about how good my skin looks all the time.
The mint shampoo and body bar is the only one I have used so far. I love the fragrance and the way it makes my skin feel; soft and smooth!
It's fluffy and light and spreads thinly, sinking into skin well. The only thing is the smell is a little strong for fave so I ended up using on legs amd chest more. I'm excited to get unscented for my face now! Thank you
I’m 61 I have super sensitive skin in addition to an auto immune that causes my body to react to many environmental, food and body care. This tallow feels wonderful on my skin
Love the texture of the cream, and knowing that is clean and safe for my skin is something I want
Love this!!!!
Wonderful!
So invigorating!
Love the products. Great company!
I love it! Even on my course, frizzy hair. I will be on the lookout for your toothpaste.
I started using this for my hair this month and I can’t believe how clean and great my hair looks and feels! Love this product and will continue to use it!
It lathers up and smells great. Love it. I was using the body bar sometimes for my hair. The actual shampoo is much easier for the hair.
The purest, the cleanest, the best balm for any skin!!!
I work outside all winter and nothing has ever kept my hands from cracking until now.
I was hesitant to try the balm. Turns out it works amazing so I LOVE IT!. Doesn't take much, lasts a long time and smells neutral
I love primal Tallow because it softens my skin while hydrating it in a completely natural healthy way!
The face and body balm is so luxurious! I have the lavender scent. I absolutely love it! It is by far the best cream/lotion for my skin. My skin feels soft after using it and it lasts much longer than other products.
Love this soap!
It is very rich and smooth. I really like it’s feeling on my face.
I have only had it for a few days but I have had no problem with my sensitive skin and its light but moisturizes my skin all day long which is way more than my previous face cream.
Nice fluffy texture! I use this for both my face and body as a clean non toxic moisturizer!
I bought this whipped tallow balm for myself, but my husband loved it so much he ended up taking it! He uses it on his face and bald head, and I use it on my face too. It doesn’t make me break out at all and leaves our skin feeling incredibly soft and nourished. We’re both obsessed!
Enjoying this very much. Thanks
Absolutely love these balms! This is my 3rd order, so decided to stock up for winter. The balm is very nourishing, high-quality and comes in lovely boxes. Highly recommend primal balms!
Whipped Tallow Balm For Face & Body - Lavender
Store owner replied: Thank you for sharing the photo ❤️
Absolutely love this. I will buy again. I also applied it to my son's hand, as you see on the photos he had some dark spots on his fingers. After 5-6 days, they were all gone. Thank you for this miracle balm ❤️
Whipped Tallow Balm For Face & Body - Unscented
Store owner replied: Thank you for sharing this with the community ❤️
I’ve been using the tallow face and body balm for several weeks now. For the past couple of winters I’ve had dry cracked and red skin on my left elbow. Since applying the balm on my elbow at night, it has visibly improved. It’s less red, cracked and feels alot smoother which you can see in the photos—top is before and bottom is today. I’m sorry my elbow selfies aren’t very good! It’s hard to take the photo. If you’d like I can ask a friend or family member to take it for me.
Whipped Tallow Balm For Face & Body - Lemongrass
Store owner replied: Thank you, Sally. Our balms are made of 100% grass-finished tallow from Alberta, rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K to promote skin healing. Thank you for sharing this.
Took me 2 months to finish this 😍! I love this stuff! It smells great and is not greasy. I use it on my face and It makes my skin feel healthy and hydrated with no irritation or toxins. I love the whipped texture as well. You only need to use a little bit, so I know the jar will go a long way! Thank you
I'm a big fan of tallow balms. This one works best. So pleased with the results. My skin loves me and I feel as if I never broke out since the day I started using tallow! Also used it for my eczema and it worked wonders! 10/10
I really like how this moisturizer melts into my skin. I prefer to use it at night but will switch to twice a day in the cooler months. It does a great job at keeping my skin hydrated through the night, Everytime I use it I wake up with glowy dewy skin.
Amazing! I have been using for two weeks on my face and hands and have been getting so many compliments how good my skin looks. Love Love Love!
I was a bit skeptical with this just being any other soap. Let me tell you, this soap does makes your skin less dry and keeps you clean. This is my second order from here. Love the natural sea salt most. Simple clean ingredients
It is very moisturizing, yet soaks in quickly. Scent is pleasant. Before this I used to buy other brands, they all had a strong tallow smell. this one by far is the best I have used in the past 5 years. Also I am sure it has a better tallow as this balm lasts a long time. A little goes a long way. I hope they do not increase their price over the coming years.
First time trying this product as I've heard so much of it's benefits and I must say it truly is what people have been raving about. It leaves my skin feeling so soft for over 8-10 hours!!! I love that it's natural and I can also use it on my toddlers! Great product! Although it is called a lip balm, I use it for my lips and hands!
I have been using this product exclusively for my moisturizer for the past few weeks. At 45, my skin is nice and soft. I have always had more oily skin and this has been great for it, I don't find it clogs my pores and my skin just soaks it in
I love this product. I have only used it for a few weeks and it is like my skin craves it each day. I have noticed my skin is more radiant, smoothed my lines and my face glows. Very happy and will be using this for years to come. Love the unscented version more.
I have been using the whipped beef tallow balm for over 2 weeks, twice daily, and I love it. I have sensitive skin and dry weather makes matters worse, to the point where I get rashes on my face after showers. This balm is one of the only ones that calms my skin. It leave it soft and hydrated, but not greasy. I like the smell and that it does not soak in and disappear right away.
Hi, I’m Rina, the founder of The Primal Tallow Balms and Soaps. I created this skincare line because I believe what we put on our skin should be as pure as what we eat.
My journey started with healing through nutrient-dense food, and it led me to skincare—because our skin absorbs everything. That’s why we use only 100% grass-fed, finished tallow, sourced from local farmers, to craft clean, deeply nourishing products without any harmful chemicals.
This isn’t just skincare—it’s a return to nature, to real ingredients that truly heal. I’m beyond excited to share this with you and to grow this movement of people who care about what they put on their skin.
Rina Ahluwalia | Founder
100% Grass-fed Grass-finished
At The Primal, we use only grass-fed, grass-finished tallow in our products because it’s the purest and most nutrient-dense option for skin health. Rich in essential fatty acids and vitamins A, D, E, and K, it deeply hydrates, soothes inflammation, and supports skin regeneration. Unlike conventional tallow, grass-fed tallow contains 3x more antioxidants and 500% more conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which fights free radicals, prevents wrinkles, and boosts collagen. Biocompatible and free from harmful chemicals, The Primal Tallow Balm is easily absorbed, making it the ultimate natural skincare solution.
Cold-Pressed Organic
We use only 100% organic, cold-pressed olive oil in The Primal Tallow Balms to ensure the purest and most effective skincare. Used for centuries, olive oil hydrates the skin, supports the skin barrier, and soothes irritation, helping dry, sensitive, or reactive skin. Rich in polyphenols and vitamin E, it prevents oxidative stress, reducing fine lines and improving skin elasticity. Combined with The Primal grass-fed, grass-finished tallow, it enhances hydration and resilience, creating the ultimate nourishing balm for healthy, radiant skin.
100% Organic
100% organic Jojoba oil enhances The Primal Tallow Balms by mimicking the skin’s natural sebum, helping to balance moisture levels for all skin types. It hydrates without clogging pores, regulates oil production, and supports acne-prone skin. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, jojoba oil boosts elasticity and repairs the skin. With vitamin E to protect against oxidative damage and anti-inflammatory properties to calm irritation, it works synergistically with tallow to nourish and restore healthy, radiant skin.
Optional Organic
Each of The Primal Tallow Balms is carefully formulated with specific essential oils to offer unique skin benefits and a natural, pleasant aroma.
Unscented Balm: This balm contains pure tallow to hydrate and soothe without added essential oils, which is perfect for all skin types.
Lavender + Frankincense Balm: Lavender calms irritation and reduces inflammation, while frankincense rejuvenates the skin, reducing wrinkles, scars, and blemishes.
Lemongrass + Cedarwood Balm: Lemongrass tightens pores and offers antibacterial benefits, while cedarwood helps regulate oil production and reduces acne with its antifungal effects.
