Highly Bioavailable Transdermal Magnesium 

Our Magnesium Balm is made with magnesium chloride hexahydrate, extracted from the Zechstein seabed. Each 60 ml jar provides approximately 3,700 mg of elemental magnesium.

Magnesium chloride on its own can be very drying. That is why we paired it with our skin-nourishing tallow, allowing you to get the magnesium you need while keeping your skin moisturized.

Unlike some oral supplements that can cause gut irritation, applying our balm directly to the skin allows the magnesium to enter the bloodstream directly, bypassing the digestive system entirely. For optimal results—and to help support better sleep—apply it to your hands, legs, or especially the bottoms of your feet.

This balm is unscented, unadulterated and pure — just like your skin. Unscented means no added fragrance, not no smell: expect a mild, buttery scent that fades a few minutes after you apply it.

Many creams and lotions on the market are made with ingredients that sit on the surface of the skin, only to temporarily hydrate while actually depleting the skin of it's natural moisture and creating imbalances that can lead to dependency. Our balms work differently. We use 100% grass fed Canadian beef tallow which is very similar to our skin's biology. Our balms absorb fully and deeply, leaving your skin hydrated, nourished and balanced. Zero water, fillers, chemicals or synthetics are used in our balms.

Our tallow is pesticide free, GMO free, and chemical free.

What "unscented" means here

No perfume, no essential oils, no masking agents — nothing added to scent it. What's left is the tallow itself.

Scent profile: earthy, buttery, mild. Fades on application.

This Balm Is For You If...

You don't get enough magnesium and are looking for a topical solution.

You want better sleep.

You have tight or sore muscles.

You are an athlete.

You want a natural way to ease stress and anxiety.

Ingredients

Organic grass-fed/finished beef tallow is the key ingredient of this luxurious cream. Beef tallow contains fat-soluble vitamins that revitalize the skin.

Canadian beef tallow skincare properties:

  • Contains naturally occurring retinol (bioavailable vitamin A).
  • High in nourishing fatty acids such as Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA), which has anti-inflammatory properties, Arachidonic Acid (AA), Oleic Acid, Palmitic Acid, Alpha Linolenic Acid (ALA), and Stearic Acid.
  • Stearic acid helps the skin stay flexible and youthful.
  • High in fat-soluble vitamins A, B, D, E, K, omegas, and fatty acids, all of which are highly bioabsorbable.
  • Contains palmitoleic acid, which has antimicrobial properties.

Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate: High quality magnesium flakes from the Zechstein seabed. Provides substantial magnesium, known for its relaxation properties.

Cold-pressed castor oil: a moisturizing and non-comedogenic oil (absorbs into the skin without blocking pores) that has been used in natural cosmetics for thousands of years, dating back to ancient Egypt.

What Makes Our Balm Stand Out

Magnesium Balm is made with 3 powerful ingredients. Simplicity is key. These ingredients can soothe muscles, promote a good night's sleep and calm the body and mind.

We render our own tallow. This is the key to our magic formula. Our tallow is rendered by us, by hand and triple filtered to remove impurities and keep the natural odour of the fat to a minimum. We use suet from Ontario cattle that is grass fed. The process of just rendering the suet takes over 5 hours.

We hand blend our tallow to perfection and jar it ourselves.

Why Tallow Instead of Plant Based Products?

Tallow is a whole food skin product and it is edible (although our products are for external use only). It is a healthy fat high in several fatty acids, can be used as a healthy fat to cook food and has a high heat point. Your skin recognizes this fat and utilizes it immediately on a cellular level. While we love plants, we believe plant based skincare is simply not sufficient. Many plant based products are highly processed and denatured. Plant-based products can sit on the skin unabsorbed, can dry out the skin, can lead to imbalances or simply do nothing for the skin. Plant bases are usually much cheaper to use which is a big reason why they are ubiquitous amongst skincare.

How to use: Apply to the bottoms of the feet, hands, or legs at bedtime or during the day as needed. Avoid applying to the face or sensitive areas, as magnesium brine may cause a mild stinging sensation for some individuals.

Getting the most from your jar

  1. Air it out. When your jar arrives, take the lid off and let it breathe for 5–10 minutes.
  2. Patch test. Start with a small amount somewhere less sensitive — the back of your hand is ideal.
  3. Go small. Tallow is concentrated; more isn't better.
  4. Give it 10–15 minutes. That's when it stops sitting on your skin and starts working.

Before using any new skincare product, do a patch test: apply a small amount of the product to the skin and leave it on to see how your body responds.

Customer photo review of Organic Manuka Tallow Balm, 60 ml

Quick shipping and some extra special samples included with my package. Love supporting a local company! Works wonders on some rough spots from my exercise routine. After trying numerous products, tough dark areas on my knees, elbows and ankles from pilates are quickly disappearing with the Manuka tallow balm!

Customer photo review of Organic Tallow Deodorant, Unscented

It works pretty well. My wife and I were surprised with how well it works because we have tried many other deodorants in the natural arena that didn't work so well. I love the fact that it is made from tallow and that what I am applying under my armpit is natural and not harmful for my body.

Customer photo review of Organic Emu Tallow Balm, Unscented, 60 ml

I love this cream! My baby was 4 months old with baby rash on one side of his cheeks. Nothing seemed to calm it down and whatever I used only made it worse until I tried the emu tallow balm. It only took one day of using it morning and night to see a huge difference! You notice a drastic change, and continuous use of it eventually helped the rash go away!!

Organic Lavender Vanilla Tallow Balm, 60 ml

Lipidology Balms are truly amazing. They feel so healthy on my skin … such a contrast to all the face creams I have used through the years containing so many toxic and harmful ingredients. Lipidology Balms only have one side effect … beautiful feeling skin that looks healthy. Customer service at Lipidology is also amazing. Questions are answered in a timely and very polite manner. All and all Lipidology is absolutely the best product I have ever used on my face.

Unscented Tallow Balm — For Sensitive & Eczema-Prone Skin | Lipidology

I've now tried the Rose, Manuka, and Emu tallow balms, and I love them all! The products are amazing, but the customer service is what truly sets this company apart. The owner went above and beyond to help with a website issue so my order arrived in time for Father's Day, and she took the time to offer personalized recommendations for my skincare concerns. I'll definitely be ordering again and highly recommend both the products and the company!

I was worried this would be very over powering with the peppermint, but it’s far from that. Same amazing quality as their nude bar soap, but with a subtle soft peppermint scent. Loving it so far :)
