Can this balm be used for all skin types?

Yes! Soothing Balm is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and oily skin. Lard mimics the skin’s natural oils, making it non-comedogenic and effective for balancing oil production while providing hydration.

How can Soothing Lard Balm be used?

Soothing Lard Balm is a gentle, nourishing moisturiser designed to support and protect sensitive skin. It provides rich hydration, helps calm dryness and visible irritation, and keeps your skin feeling soft and comfortable. Perfect as a nappy balm or everyday body moisturiser for babies and the whole family.

Is this balm suitable for use on children or babies?

Yes, this balm is gentle enough for use on children or babies, especially for dry skin, nappy rash, or minor skin irritations. However, if your child has known allergies or extremely sensitive skin, it’s always best to perform a patch test first.

This is a really special product. I was a bit dubious about using lard even though I’m a long term tallow user.
The scent is gorgeous, a perfect mild chamomile infusion, the texture is amazing, a super fine, light balm, not greasy but stays on my face all night.
Finally, the results. After only a week of use I find my face and hands are softer with the first hints of Melbourne autumn dryness stopped in its tracks. I had some chaffing around my lips from a sunny afternoon and being out in the cool evening, a nice extra layer of lard balm remedied it overnight, I woke up this morning with the medium grade irritation fully healed. I am very hally to recommend this product, it is surprisingly effective and just gorgeous to use as part of my self care routine.

A staple in our household

The soothing lard balm is a must have for us. From using it on cuts and bites, to nappy rash or at the moment helping to clear up red spots around the mouth! So so velvety soft and smells amazing.

I love this balm, have repurchased many times. So nourishing and I really love using it for facial massage with a gua sha!

Lovely moisturiser

Mild chamomile smell, and so velvety soft against the skin. Only a tiny amount required, too. I usually use tallow but I think I prefer this!

Very Soothing

Really nice balm and scent. I used it on my sunburn and it calmed the burning straight away. Also used on a red flakey spot on my hairline and the next morning it was normal. I’m alternating this on my face too. I can’t decide which is my favourite for my face yet. They are all great!
