Did you know that if you use lotion for your whole body everyday you will absorb approximately 11-16lbs of lotion a year? When I discovered this, I thought about all the chemicals in store bought lotions that I was absorbing continuously. As a nurse, I am tired of seeing people sick from all the harmful chemicals we are exposed to daily. Therefore, I started to decrease the amount for my family, friends and me. To top it off, this lotion/balm moisturizes so well that even when I (or my fellow nurses and doctors) wash my hands numerous times, I can still feel the moisture. This whipped tallow and Shea butter balm is the perfect mixture for those who want deep moisture, but not a very greasy feeling. The great thing about it is it’s completely organic and synergistically combines with your body‘s natural oils. Tallow, shea butter, and olive oil are natural ingredients with exceptional benefits for skin health. Tallow is rich in fatty acids and vitamins A, D, E, and K, making it deeply moisturizing, nutrient-dense, and highly compatible with human skin. It strengthens the skin’s barrier, combats signs of aging with antioxidants, and soothes conditions like eczema and dryness without clogging pores. When ethically sourced, tallow also supports sustainable skincare practices. Shea butter provides deep hydration with fatty acids and vitamins A, E, and F, promoting elasticity, healing, and anti-aging effects. Its anti-inflammatory properties soothe irritated skin, while its mild SPF offers some UV protection. Non-comedogenic and gentle, shea butter enhances skin texture and repairs the natural barrier, making it suitable for various skin types, including sensitive or acne-prone skin. Olive oil is a versatile moisturizer loaded with antioxidants like vitamin E and polyphenols that protect against free radical damage and improve elasticity. It has anti-inflammatory and emollient properties that soothe and strengthen the skin’s barrier, aiding in hydration and repair. Gentle enough for sensitive skin, olive oil doubles as a natural cleanser while supporting regeneration and reducing fine lines and wrinkles. I blend the above with a variety of essential oils.
