NTRLabs Enriched Tallow Balm Q&A

Clean skincare should never be confusing. Here's what our community wants to know — with straight answers and full transparency.

It gives our skin the kind of natural oils it actually likes—just like the ones we make ourselves. That helps good bacteria thrive and keeps our barrier healthy and calm.

We only use beef tallow from regenerative farms that care for the land and animals. That means less waste, more carbon pulled from the air, and a balm that’s good for our skin and the planet.

Because they work better together. Shea locks in moisture and adds antioxidant protection, while tallow helps rebuild the skin barrier. The result? Skin that feels soft, resilient, and deeply hydrated.

It makes everything feel light, smooth, and absorb fast—without losing any of the moisture. Think of it as the “slip” that helps all the good stuff sink in.

Absolutely. Emu oil and bakuchiol calm redness and irritation, and tallow rebuilds the barrier to stop flare-ups. It’s gentle, soothing, and actually works long-term.

It’s one of the natural vitamins in grass-fed tallow. Vitamin K helps with circulation and fades dark circles and discoloration. Especially great for under-eyes.

Keep it cool and out of the sun. If it melts a bit, just toss it in the fridge for 15 minutes. It’ll firm back up and feel extra refreshing.

It’s definitely gentler—and way easier on sensitive skin. Bakuchiol boosts collagen and renews skin like retinol or peels do, but without the sting, flaking, or sun sensitivity.

Besides smelling amazing, it helps brighten the skin and boost mood. It’s rich in antioxidants and works to protect our skin from environmental stress.
