Original Tallow & Honey Balm

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.

Some users apply it twice a day, while others use it every few days, depending on their skin's needs. This balm is versatile and can be applied to any part of the body or face.
