Shepherd’s Balm
Shepherd’s Balm
The Shepherd’s Balm is made using hydrating and healing oils from nature. This balm will make dry lips a thing of the past. Zero toxic chemicals used & packaged in a paper compostable tube so no plastic is leaching in to your product or ending up in the landfill.
Shepherd’s balm is made using Pastured Tallow from our Ranch, USA sourced Lanolin, Local Beeswax, Organic Golden Jojoba Oil, & Infused with Ethically foraged Juniper Berries from our Ranch.
Tallow: Our tallow is a blend of grass fed lamb & beef suet rendered down by hand to remove any impurities. Tallow is able to moisturize the driest of skin while also providing a wealth of nutrients, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids. Because tallow is an animal fat it mimics the oil that our skin produces and is easily absorbed. Making it a superior moisturizer even in our dry High Desert Climate.
Lanolin: Lanolin comes from sheep’s wool. Sheep produce lanolin to protect them from harsh elements. When sheep are shorn and the wool in cleaned - we are able to save the lanolin and put it to use. Lanolin is incredibly hydrating and is able to penetrate the skin deeply helping to lock in moisture.
Beeswax: Beeswax is used to give the Shepherd’s Balm a more solid finish. While also hydrating the skin and creating a barrier that locks in moisture.
Golden Jojoba Oil: Jojoba oil is used to give the Balm a softness and glow. Jojoba naturally contains Vitamin E that helps the skin with aging and damage. It also contains anti inflammatory properties that will help heal puffiness and chapping.
Juniper Berry: The Juniper Berry in the Balm is ethically foraged here in the Great Basin. Juniper Berry heals and detoxifies the skin making it more than just a scent. Like many of the other ingredients in the balm Juniper Berry is anti inflammatory and full of antioxidants. *Please note; while Juniper Berry has many amazing properties, it is not recommended for use while pregnant or breastfeeding. We would recommend using our unscented version if that applies to you!
The Shepherd’s Balm is .3 Fl oz, making is much larger than a normal Chapstick tube which is only .15 fl oz.
