The simplest balm we make, now for your dog or cat. The Primal Tallow Paw & Nose Balm is made with 100% grass-fed, grass-finished tallow, cold-pressed organic olive oil and organic jojoba oil, with no essential oils, fragrance or synthetic additives. Rub a thin layer into dry, rough paw pads and a dry nose to soften and protect them from hot pavement, snow, salt and rough ground. A good pick for senior pets and active dogs whose pads take a beating. Three ingredients you can read, and nothing else.

100% Natural Ingredients

Tallow, Olive Oil, Jojoba Oil

100% Grass-Fed Grass-Finished Tallow

100% Grass-Fed Grass-Finished Tallow

From local farms and naturally rich in vitamins A, D, E and K to soften dry paw pads and noses.

Cold-Pressed Organic Olive Oil

Cold-Pressed Organic Olive Oil

A natural moisturizer that helps keep dry paws and noses soft and comfortable.

Organic Jojoba Oil

Organic Jojoba Oil

Close to the skin's own oils, so it soaks in well and helps keep moisture balanced.

Why You'll Love This

Soft paws and a comfortable nose

Soft paws and a comfortable nose. Paw pads dry out and crack from hot sidewalks, winter salt, snow and long walks, and noses dry out in wind, sun and dry indoor air. Our grass-fed tallow is naturally rich in vitamins A, D, E and K. It soaks into dry pads and noses to soften them, then leaves a light layer that helps protect against the elements.

Just three ingredients. 100% grass-fed, grass-finished tallow, cold-pressed organic olive oil and organic jojoba oil. No essential oils, no fragrance, no beeswax, no petroleum and no synthetic additives. Many essential oils aren't a good idea around pets, so we leave them out completely.

Easy to use. Rub a small amount into paw pads and onto the nose once or twice a day, and before or after walks on hot or icy ground. It's firm in the jar and melts on contact. Give it a few minutes to soak in. A treat or a toy helps keep licking to a minimum.

Where to use it. Paw pads, noses, rough elbows and dry patches on dogs, cats and other furry pets. Keep it away from the eyes and don't use it on open wounds. It isn't for birds, since oil on feathers is harmful.

Handcrafted in the USA. Made in small batches with tallow from local farms, double-purified for a clean, neutral balm with only a faint natural scent.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe if my dog or cat licks it?

It's made with only grass-fed tallow, organic olive oil and organic jojoba oil, with no essential oils, fragrance or synthetic additives. A little licking is expected. Apply a thin layer and distract your pet for a few minutes with a treat or toy so it soaks in instead of getting licked off.

Does it help cracked dog paws?

It softens dry, rough paw pads and helps protect them from hot pavement, snow, ice and salt. Use it daily during harsh weather. For deep cracks, bleeding, limping or swelling, check with your vet.

How often should I use it?

Once or twice a day works for most pets, and before or after walks when the ground is hot or icy. Results vary, so adjust to your pet. Stop using it if you see any irritation.

Can I use it on my dog's nose?

Yes. It's made for dry noses and paw pads, and it's handy on dry elbows and rough patches too. Keep it away from the eyes and don't use it on open wounds.

Will it make my floors slippery?

Use a thin layer and let it soak in for 5 to 10 minutes, or apply it at bedtime. Tallow absorbs well, so very little is left on the surface.

Can I use it on my cat or other pets?

Yes. With no essential oils, which are the main worry for cats, it suits cats' dry noses and paw pads. Use a very thin layer since cats groom more. It's fine for other furry pets too, but not for birds, since oil on feathers is harmful.

Great product. Soothes the skin and doesn't feel greasy or pasty after applied. Smells great as well. Wish I had discovered it ages ago.

Customer video review of Unscented Whipped Tallow Balm (Face & Body)

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.

Store owner replied: Thanks, Daniel! Really glad you love them.

Customer video review of Lemongrass Whipped Tallow Balm (Face & Body)

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!

Customer photo review of Whipped Tallow Balm For Face & Body - Lemongrass

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.
