"We are absolutely loving our new Tallow Honey Gold skin & lip balm. I carry it with my kiddos and me everywhere we go. I need to stock up!!" - Katie S.
Tallow Honey Gold (original formula) is a simple natural skin and lip balm made with mostly organic or non-GMO ingredients. The balm is small batch crafted and packaged with care and love by our Long Island family.
And just in time for the summer, we're now offering our all new Outdoor Comfort version with the same moisturizing ingredients plus non-nano zinc oxide and select organic essential oils. Perfect for all your outdoor adventures, including the beach, BBQ's, picnics, fishing, hiking, camping, and more!
And if a mosquito or two happen to get through your defenses and bite you, we've got a relieving skin scrub that should take away some of the itch.
These balms were crafted with our own family's health in mind. We didn't want to rub more chemicals into our skin, we found that most products didn't actually moisturize our skin, and we were dealing with skin issues like eczema and chronically dry skin that needed a better solution. So we worked on crafting tallow-based balms that worked perfectly for us, and now we are offering it to all of you as well!
Our balms are currently sold in individual golden tins (2 ounces each) and come with a safety seal around the lid. All simple ingredients are listed clearly on the labels.

"I love this! "
For THG Original Balm:
"I have to tell you how much I love this Tallow Honey gold! I can’t stand my lips dry. Normally, I have a Chapstick everywhere, in every bag, in every pocket, in every vehicle because shortly after I put it on I have to reapply it. However, since getting this Tallow Gold, I put it on my lips first thing in the morning, and it keeps them moisturized for hours. Including with me, drinking coffee and or water. I never wanna be without it! On top of that, I love supporting a small business owners, that’s the added bonus."
- Kathy V.
"It's all natural!"
For THG Original Balm:
"When I put Tallow Honey Gold on my lips in the morning, I never have to apply any kind of chapstick or balm for the rest of the day. When I use anything else on my lips, I'm constantly re-applying! I like using it on my hands and calloused areas, like my knees and elbows... because it provides long-standing moisture. I always add it to my hands after washing them to keep my skin soft. And it's all natural!"
- Grace S.
"It moisturizes"
For THG Original Balm:
"I like that it moisturizes my skin and lips. Because I have super dry lips, Tallow Honey Gold makes my lips feel soft and moist. I also use it on my sensitive skin instead of lotions with chemicals."
- Ania V.
"I'm blown away!"
For MAHA Gold (Special Edition):
"I am absolutely blown away out of my mind how [it] works. I had sun poisoning... my skin was peeling like a snake... and I can't even tell you what my skin looked like... I started using [it] Saturday night and my skin looks, like, I'm blown away! ... I wish I did a before and after because it was incredible."
- Teresa

"It moisturizes"
For THG Outdoor Comfort:
"This balm is amazing. Not only does it repel against mosquitos in the dense marsh of fire island. It also smells good and feels nourishing on your skin. You should try to get it on the counters of Frank & Maria's Italian Market in Bay Shore, NY."
- Diane M.

Beef tallow is deeply moisturizing and easily absorbed by human skin. It's rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, all of which support skin health. Thanks to the special blend in Tallow Honey Gold of our non-GMO USA beef tallow plus beeswax, olive oil, and healing Manuka honey, you may find that this special balm helps sooth irritation, redness, and possibly even conditions like eczema or psoriasis (we can't guarantee it, but this has been our experience). It feels amazing on the skin... give it a try!
Bobby Vincench here! My family makes all these balms and scrubs carefully and safely right here on Long Island at our home. It's the same exact tallow we make for ourselves, and now we offer it to you and your loved ones so you can hopefully benefit from it like we do. Brought to you by our small business, Free Minds Thrive (get more info here).
When we say "All Natural" -- we mean it! Even though we use a specific proprietary homemade formula and process to make each batch of Tallow Honey Gold balms and scrubs, the natural ingredients may vary slightly from batch to batch.
This is due to very slight variations in ratios used in each batch, as well as the natural variation of beef tallow, beeswax, olive oil and Manuka honey from the source. The non-GMO tallow, for instance, can be slightly different from batch to batch. The organic beeswax comes from different bees and beehives, ensuring there will be some differences in every batch. The same goes for the Manuka honey and organic olive oil.
You may also notice little smooth and soft "bits" or "chunks" once in a while, which come from the beeswax and/or honey -- and are perfectly normal (just go ahead and rub them in!).
So while we aim to use the same quality ingredients with each batch (either non-GMO or organic in all cases), the actual qualities and characteristics of each batch will depend on how the cows and bees lived their lives, and how the olives grew in their unique conditions.
With all of this considered, we expect slight variations. The product will always be as clean and simple as the ingredients list shows. We may even play with formulas from time to time in order to improve these products over time.
There's no right answer to this question, although there are two important things to keep in mind:
1. A little goes a long way, as it tends to last longer on your skin than some other products out there.
2. Apply liberally to get the moisturizing satisfaction your skin needs.
