BACK SPRING 2025

 

100% natural bug repellent that's actually SAFE! 

 

No need to worry when using this product like the regular store bought bug repellents containing Deet. Sleep in it if you want! No need to wash off. Rub it on your horse, your dogs, your cat, you name it!!!! Safe for your face too!! Baby safe if you are ok with essential oils and topical neem oil. *Doctors recommend not using essential oils and topical neem oil on newborns and not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women*  

 

All these ingredients are 100% natural and non irritating (unless you have sensitivities to essential oils & neem oil)

The smell is strong, I wouldn’t necessarily call it a "pretty" scent like my other tallows, but I can tell you she will work!!!! AND super moisturizing with my regular tallow recipe ingredients added too!!!!!

 

Ingredients: Alberta grass fed and finished tallow, Wild Prairie Honey beeswax, organic neem oil (8%), organic cold pressed jojoba oil, organic rosehip oil, olive squalane, organic essential oils of: vanilla, lemon grass, citronella, tea tree, lavender, eucalyptus lemon, geranium, rosemary, & peppermint

 

* These are 100% natural and handmade products so each batch’s scent and consistency may vary. Tallow may firm or soften in shipping depending on temperature. May be hard if it's a cooler temperture that day but as soon as it's warmed and on your skin it's as smooth as butter! 

Since there are no preservatives added I highly recommend to store in a dark, cool place while not using. I created this product with a metal tin so it's safe to take with you for the day! Can spoil if any water gets into jars so use clean dry hands

 

Key ingredients: Beef Tallow: Tallow shares simular biology to our own skin. When applied, it has the ability to mimic the fatty acids, vitamins and minerals in our skin and absorb deeply. Tallow is incredibly compatible with all skin types. It is non-comedogenic (non pore clogging) Can help reduce stretch marks, signs of aging and fine lines, help eczema + psoriasis, prevent scarring, sun burn relief and soothe acne. A true super food for your skin! Grass fed and finished beef tallow is especially packed full of fat-soluble vitamins A D K and E, antioxidants, peptides, & omega 3. It protects the skin's surface all day long from free radicals and increases elastin. 

 

Local Beeswax: So excited to be using Wild Prairie Honey beeswax! Beeswax is another beautiful and 100% natural option for skincare and very unique! It forms a protective barrier on the skin helping to protect against environmental pollutants, free radicals and harsh weather. This protective barrier also helps lock in moisture to keep the skin hydrated and locks in my sun and bug repellent products so they last for hours, not needing to be reapplied so frequently. Beeswax also repels water making these products water and sweat friendly. It has natural anti inflammatory and anti bacterial properties and is high vitamin a which boosts healthy skin cell production. A superfood for the skin made by bees and paired with all the amazing benefits of grass-fed and finished beef tallow! 

 

Neem oil: Neem oil is a naturally occurring and generally safe pesticide oil found in seeds from the neem tree. It has a strong scent that the little critters hate.  It has been used for hundreds of years to control pests and disease. Neem oil is quite powerful, and from the research I've done I have found it quite safe if used in a low concentration and topically. Much, much less risk than Deet.

 * Doctors say newborns, pregnant and breastfeeding women should avoid neem oil*

 

Jojoba oil: Jojoba oil is an amazing versatile carrier oil suitable for all skin types including mature skin, sensitive skin, oily skin and acne.  It will revitalize your skin, offering deep hydration without clogging pores. Both tallow and jojoba oil mirror the sebum of human skin and work wonders together. Jojoba oil can help maintain skin's softness and suppleness, promoting a smooth and refined skin texture. It offers lightweight, non-greasy hydration and absorbs quickly. It is rich in vitamin E and omega 3. 

 

Rosehip oil: Organic rosehip oil possesses brightening properties that even out your skin tone, leaving your complexion radiant and revitalized. It is rich in fatty acids. The retinoids in rosehip oil can help brighten your skin, prevent blackheads, and reduce inflammation. Rosehip oil also contains linoleic acid, a fatty acid that can aid acne prevention and shrink pimples. It may help treat eczema, an inflammation of the skin. The thinner consistency of rosehip oil ensures quick absorption, allowing its benefits to penetrate deep into the layers of your skin. Suitable for all skin types. 

 

Olive squalane: Squalane is also close to human skin. It is able to penetrate the skin quickly and easily to hydrate, enhance elasticity and resilience. It boosts the skin’s water retention, leaving it looking and feeling hydrated, smoother, and softer to the touch without leaving a greasy or sticky residue. It helps to minimize the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, promotes skin cell rejuvenation, and protects against the harsh effects of UV radiation and pollution. Its non-comedogenic quality makes squalane suitable for all skin types, even oily complexions. Teamed up with rosehip, jojoa oil and tallow makes this recipe perfect for all skin types.
