Beef Tallow Lip Balm – Natural Tallow Beeswax Chapstick – Hydrating Moisturizer Grass Fed Bison Tallow Balm Lip Care – Soothes Chapped, Dry Lips, Sensitive Skin – Long Lasting & Vitamin Rich USA-Made

Husband review: The wife ordered this stuff for herself, skeptical about what’s in a lot of cosmetics. I always went straight for good ol’ Carmex; but I tried it once because I was too lazy to dig around for mine. This stuff is sometimes a better tool for the job. I service swimming pools and work outside in the sun, so I sometimes struggle with dehydration & get cracked lips occasionally. I put this on before bed, and it lasts all night so I wake up better off. It’s not medicated (what she wanted), but it’s hydrating. So while I still occasionally use Carmex at work, reapplying a few times to get damaged cracks together, I use this to maintain & finish the job overnight where the other stuff would have just evaporated within an hour. Another thing: it’s soft, where chap stick would pull on a sore/crack, this stuff goes on an into damaged places like a lubricant.

The first time I ordered this item I absolutely loved it. It was more of a total tallow based texture more oily when softened on your lips and it had no smell and moisturized like nothing else I found. The second time I just ordered it was totally different. It now has an awful smell and totally different color and texture. Will not be ordering this again as they have clearly changed something and it was not to make it better.

It does the job

So I typically make my own products at home using beef tallow. But I was in dire need of chapstick, and just didn't have any time or energy to do it, so I came across this brand on Amazon and had to try. I love it! Not only is it HUGE, but it is unscented, it's glides on perfectly and my lips feel super moisturized for hours. As with all tallow products, you have to be super careful about letting this stuff sit in the heat. So if you were planning on keeping it in your purse or car, it'll definitely turn into a ooey gooey mess. I keep mine in my nightstand in an air-conditioned room, and even then it gets a bit too warm on our hot 103F Summer days. Nevertheless, I recommend to those who are looking for a non-toxic chapstick that super moisturizing.

What changed?? I got one in the fall and LOVED it more than any lip balm ever! But I just got two more (one for my car and one for my bag) and it has a strong chemical smell. I’ve used it for a week, hoping the smell would fade somehow, but it hasn’t. I would love an answer from the company about what changed. And please change back to the original formula! It was lovely, smooth with a slight sweet taste from the honey. The first one was 5 stars, and now I would say 2 at most, so I tried to average it at 4 stars (with hope for a change).
