Solterra Tallow Vitamin C Balm


Experience our products in smaller, more accessible sizes, perfect for travel, gifting, or beginning a new ritual.

This balm melts seamlessly into skin, soothing and comforting, supporting tone and texture, and locking in long-lasting hydration. Ideal for dry, sensitive, or barrier-conscious skin, Solterra supports your skin's resilience and radiance with every application.

Inspired by the symbiosis of sun and earth, plant and animal, Solterra is more than a balm; it's a return to balance. At its core is grass-fed tallow from small regenerative farms in Wisconsin, rich in bioavailable lipids that deeply nourish and mimic the skin's natural barrier. It's joined by borage seed oil to nourish and comfort, and oil-soluble vitamin C to brighten, fortify, and protect.

The scent is green, herbal, and bright, with soft notes of tansy and chamomile, a grounding yet uplifting daily ritual for skin and spirit.

How to use

Smooth a small pea-sized amount onto damp skin after cleansing and misting, or anytime your skin feels parched or tense.

TIP: Start using a minimal amount to see what feels best on your skin. Damp skin is a key step in optimal absorption. A little goes a very long way.

Each 1-oz jar contains approximately 120 applications.

Ingredients

GRASS-FED TALLOW is naturally rich in skin-compatible lipids like stearic and palmitic acids that closely mimic the structure of the skin's own sebum. It helps visibly support the moisture barrier, lock in hydration, and nourish dry, sensitive, or barrier-conscious skin for a visibly softer, more comfortable complexion.

BORAGE SEED OIL is exceptionally high in gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid known for its deeply nourishing and skin-comforting properties. This oil is especially well-suited for visibly soothing dryness and supporting the appearance of more balanced, resilient skin, particularly for those affected by environmental stress.

SQUALANE (OLIVE-DERIVED) is a lightweight, stable lipid that mimics the skin's natural oils, absorbing easily to replenish moisture without clogging pores. It visibly supports the appearance of elasticity, smooths skin texture, and helps protect against moisture loss and environmental oxidative stress.

TETRAHEXYLDECYL ASCORBATE (OIL-SOLUBLE VITAMIN C) is a potent yet gentle form of vitamin C that penetrates deeply into the skin's lipid layers to visibly brighten and defend against environmental stress. Unlike water-based forms, it is non-irritating and particularly well-suited for sensitive or mature skin seeking a visible boost of radiance over time.

BLUE TANSY ESSENTIAL OIL is rich in chamazulene, a powerful plant compound that gives it its vivid blue color and deeply comforting aroma. It helps visibly soothe and support the appearance of reactive or sensitive skin, promoting a calmer, more balanced-looking complexion and a grounding sensory ritual.

Details

What is tallow? Tallow is a nutrient-dense, rendered fat traditionally sourced from the suet of grass-fed cows. In skincare, we use tallow from grass-fed and finished animals, ensuring it’s rich in fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K), conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), and a lipid profile remarkably similar to human skin sebum.

.25 oz | 7 g clear glass sample jar

We recommend testing a small area of skin to see how your skin responds to tallow.

Store in a cool, dark, and dry place.

Each product is made by us in-house in small batches, and there may be some variation from batch to batch, but ratios remain the same.

Tallow: Nourishing Ancestral Ingredient

Tallow closely mirrors our skin’s natural oils, delivering essential fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) that deeply nourish and restore. But beyond skin benefits, our choice is rooted in sustainability. We source tallow from grass-fed, pasture-raised animals as a byproduct of regenerative farming, supporting soil health, reducing waste, and honoring full-animal use. This ingredient reflects our commitment to ancestral wisdom and earth-aligned practices.
