A tinted version of our beloved tallow lip balm is here. Our tinted tallow lip balm is made with just 3 ingredients: 100% grass-fed irish beef tallow and beeswax to deeply hydrate, soften, and protect your lips – while a touch of red iron oxide mineral pigment adds a natural, rosy tint. The smooth formula glides on easily, leaving lips nourished with a soft hint of colour.
The tint is buildable, so you can apply one layer for a sheer wash of colour or add more for a deeper, sun-kissed look.
Packaged in a sustainable paper push-up tube, it’s an everyday essential that’s kind to your lips and the planet.
For most of history, lip colour was beautifully simple:
fat + wax + mineral pigment.
Animal fats nourished the skin, wax gave the product structure, and natural earth pigments added colour. This basic formula has been used for centuries across cultures – long before modern cosmetic chemistry existed.
In ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome, mineral pigments like iron oxides were commonly used to tint skin and lips. These pigments occur naturally in the earth and have been used safely for colouring ceramics, paints and cosmetics for thousands of years.
Modern cosmetic formulas often take a different path. Many products replace traditional fats with long blends of plant oils and add stabilisers, starches, emulsifiers and synthetic colourants to achieve a similar result.
Our approach is simpler.
We follow the traditional idea of colour cosmetics:
tallow, beeswax and a touch of mineral pigment.
Grass-fed tallow nourishes the lips, beeswax provides structure and protection, and natural red iron oxide adds a soft, sun-kissed warmth. The result is a gentle, buildable tint that enhances your natural lip colour while keeping lips comfortable and hydrated.
Sometimes the oldest formulas are still the most beautiful.
Why you’ll love it:
• Nutrient-rich and deeply moisturizing
• Sheer, buildable tint for naturally flushed lips
• Mineral-based colour (red iron oxide)
• Smooth, comfortable finish
• Minimal, natural ingredients
• Eco-friendly, plastic-free packaging
Push up, swipe on, and enjoy your summer kiss 💋
A natural flush of colour and care.
