Made from 100% grass-fed Irish beef tallow and raw Irish honey, this rich, all-natural balm provides deep hydration while delivering essential nutrients for skin repair. Unlike synthetic moisturisers that sit on the surface, tallow mimics the skin’s natural oils, allowing it to absorb effortlessly and nourish from within.
The addition of raw honey and cold-pressed olive oil enhances its soothing and antimicrobial properties, making it ideal for dry, sensitive, or irritated skin.
Whether used as a daily moisturiser, a healing balm for cracked skin, or a natural alternative to conventional face creams, this handmade formula restores softness, locks in moisture, and supports overall skin health.
Ancestral Cosmetics’ mission is to bring back the ancient wisdom of natural beauty, using ingredients that have been trusted for over 5,000 years. The brand emerged from founders Renata and Mihael’s realisation that many food and skincare products poses health risks— with many "natural" cosmetics containing harmful preservatives, toxic mineral oils, hormone-disrupting fragrances, and cheap fillers disguised as natural ingredients. That’s why they decided to do things differently.
They developed products with ingredients that are so natural, they could be eaten. Their core ingredient, beef tallow, is a highly effective natural fat known for its deep moisturising and skin-repairing qualities. The brand also incorporates cold-pressed olive oil, raw local honey, and pure essential oils. With every product free of fillers and unnecessary extras, Ancestral Cosmetics brings you solutions you truly need for optimal skin health and wellness.
