French Silk Lip Balm is a luxurious blend of pure vanilla beans and rich cacao butter, carefully infused to create a smooth, decadent experience. Inspired by the velvety indulgence of a classic French Silk pie, this limited-edition formula is available only for spring and summer, offering a delicate balance of warmth and sweetness! Each application melts into the lips, delivering deep nourishment with a touch of timeless elegance.
Our tallow + beeswax lip balm is a nourishing blend of pure, simple ingredients designed to keep your lips soft and hydrated. Made with pasture-raised pork tallow from our family farm, it provides deep moisture and skin-soothing benefits. We combine locally sourced beeswax for a protective barrier, organic cacao butter to smooth and soften, and rosehip oil for a boost of vitamins and antioxidants. This lip balm is a luxurious, healthy way to care for your lips without any harsh chemicals.
You may notice tiny black specs in French Silk - these are naturally occurring and come from our infusion process using real, pure vanilla beans. When we infuse whole vanilla beans, the tiny flecks remain, adding their natural aroma and skin-loving properties. This is a sign of pure, high-quality ingredients we use, with no artificial extracts or additives!
Simple, natural, and nourishing - just the way it should be.
Ingredients:
-
Pasture-raised pork tallow is INCREDIBLY high in Vitamin D!
In addition to Vitamin D, E, A, Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids, pasture-raised pork tallow also contains CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), which has anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties. Its natural composition can help soothe irritation and reduce redness, making it ideal for sensitive or acne-prone skin.
The high content of saturated fats and lipids nourishes and protects the skin barrier, helping to prevent water loss and lock in moisture. Its composition is biologically similar to the lipids of our skin, making it highly effective for all skin types, even those with sensitive or reactive skin. It’s an excellent moisturizer that hydrates deeply without clogging pores.

Beeswax forms a protective barrier on the skin’s surface, protecting skin from environmental irritants and harsh weather. Beeswax is also a humectant, meaning it locks in moisture to prevent water loss, helping skin stay soft and hydrated.
Beeswax is anti-allergenic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-bacterial, and germicidal. These properties make a highly stable base ingredient, extending the product’s life.
Beeswax has fantastic skin-softening properties and enhance skin’s elasticity, helping reduce the signs of aging. It’s also important to note that beeswax is particularly beneficial for those with sensitive skin, as it’s very unlikely to cause skin irritation.

Cocoa butter is a popular ingredient in lip balms not only for its moisturizing and healing properties but also for the delightful flavor and scent it adds. Rich in fatty acids, it deeply hydrates and softens the lips, preventing dryness and cracking. Its antioxidants and vitamin E content protect the lips from environmental damage, leaving them smooth and supple.
Beyond hydration, cocoa butter forms a protective barrier to lock in moisture, keeping lips soft for longer. Its natural anti-inflammatory properties calm irritation, while its creamy texture offers a luxurious feel. The subtle, sweet chocolate scent and mild flavor enhance the lip balm experience, making it both soothing and indulgent.

Castor oil is a highly effective natural ingredient great for a variety of skin and body concerns. Rich in ricinoleic acid, it has powerful anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, making it ideal for soothing irritated or inflamed skin.
Castor oil deeply moisturizes dry skin, promoting softness and hydration without feeling greasy, and can be particularly helpful for conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and acne.
Its ability to stimulate collagen production supports skin elasticity, making it a great option for reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and stretch marks.
Castor oil also aids in the healing of minor cuts, scars, and burns by encouraging faster cell regeneration. Thanks to its anti-fungal and antibacterial qualities, it can help treat and prevent fungal infections or bacterial skin issues. Whether used to hydrate, repair, or protect, castor oil is a versatile and effective ingredient promoting healthier, smoother, and more radiant skin.

Rosehip oil contains a wealth of essential fatty acids, including linoleic and linolenic acid. Fatty acids help keep cell walls strong so they don’t lose water. The many fatty acids in rosehip oil make it an excellent option for hydrating dry skin. The skin also easily absorbs the oil, allowing its antioxidants to travel deep into the skin’s layers.
Collagen is the building block of skin. It’s essential for skin elasticity and firmness. Your body naturally makes less collagen as you age. Rosehip oil is rich in vitamin A which is necessary for the production of collagen. Vitamin A is also made up of several nutritional compounds, including retinoids. Retinoids are known for their ability to reduce hyperpigmentation and fine lines.
Rosehip oil is rich in essential fatty acids and antioxidants, which are integral for tissue and cell regeneration in the skin. It’s no wonder the oil has long been used as a remedy for wound healing, as well as the reduction of scars and fine lines!
