    Illuminate Balm Heroes

    • Grass-fed Tallow

      Our Tallow is made from grass-fed suet (the prized fat around the kidneys). It is rich in nutrients like vitamins A, D, E, and K, as well as essential fatty acids. It deeply moisturizes, nourishes, and supports the skin’s natural barrier. Tallow is known for its soothing properties, helping to hydrate dry skin, reduce inflammation, and promote healing, making it ideal for sensitive or irritated skin.

    • Organic Jojoba Oil

      A low PUFA oil, suitable for all skin types. It is rich in Vitamins E, A, B, D, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids, helps regenerate skin cells, reduce inflammation and provide lasting moisture. Its light consistency absorbs quickly, locks in hydration, balances oil production to prevent breakouts, and its antioxidants repair and protect mature skin, reducing fine lines and wrinkles.

    • Organic, Hexane free Castor Oil

      Castor oil is a rich, moisturizing oil known for its ability to hydrate and nourish the skin. It has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, making it effective in soothing dry, irritated, or inflamed skin. Castor oil also promotes healing of minor cuts and wounds, and its high ricinoleic acid content helps balance skin's natural oils, making it useful for treating acne and improving skin texture.

    • Frankincense

      Frankincense and its active compound, boswellic acid, are both renowned for their skin benefits. Boswellic acid has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, helping to reduce redness, irritation, and puffiness. It also supports collagen production, which can improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Together, frankincense and boswellic acid promote healing, soothe acne or eczema, and improve skin tone, making the skin look more youthful and vibrant.

    • Liquorice Root

      Licorice root is known for its brightening and soothing effects on the skin. It contains glabridin, a compound that helps to reduce hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone by inhibiting melanin production. Additionally, licorice root has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, making it effective for calming irritated skin, reducing redness, and treating conditions like acne, eczema, and rosacea. It also helps to hydrate and protect the skin from environmental stressors.

    • Sweet Orange Peel

      Orange peel is rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and natural acids, making it great for brightening the skin, improving texture, and promoting collagen production. It can help exfoliate dead skin cells, reduce dark spots, and improve skin tone. When used in skincare, orange peel also has antibacterial properties, which can help with acne and clogged pores.

    Are you serious!?

    I’ve only been using this for a week and my skin already feels more plump, protected & is visibly brighter. I’m obsessed and can’t wait to see the progress after a month, 6 months, a year and more!

    Beyond amazing

    I never thought in my life that I would find such a hydrating and non greasy face balm. This is truly life changing. I had some depigmentation on my skin and through using this balm I've gotten rid of most of my depigmentation on my skin, I'm truly in awe. What I also love about this product is how it smells, I could eat it. It smells like a baked good. Thank you Gaia uncovered, truly.
