Whipped Tallow Balm

Equipment

  • Stove
  • Pot
  • MixerGlass jar for storage

Materials

  • 1 lb pure tallow
  • 1/2 cup mild oil safflower,grapeseed, or olive oil
  • Essential oils optional

Instructions

  • Melt the solid tallow in a pan on the stoveuntil it becomes liquid, but be careful not to let it bubble up or boil.
  • Once melted remove from heat and stir in your choice of oil and essential oils, if you’re using them.
  •  Stir the mixture gently, and then set itaside until it starts to solidify. O
  • Once it starts to become solid, use a mix to whip the mixture.

Notes

I’d suggest only using a few drops of essential oil, andsticking with a skin-beneficial oil like tea tree, frankincense, or lavender.
You know it’s done when it becomes white, with a fluffy consistency. You can store this in a glass jar at room temperature for a few months, or for longer in the fridge.
