🌞 Common Questions We Get Asked
We know choosing the right sunscreen matters — especially when it comes to what you put on your skin every day. Here are answers to some of the most common questions about our Tallow Mineral Sunscreen.
Does it smell?
No — our sunscreen does not smell like tallow at all. It has a very light, natural zinc scent due to its high content of non-nano zinc oxide (35%), the mineral responsible for its exceptional UV protection. There are no artificial fragrances or added scents, so what you smell is simply the natural zinc — clean, pure, and subtle.
Is it greasy?
Not at all. Our formula is rich and nourishing but absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving a greasy or sticky residue. Tallow closely mimics your skin’s natural oils, while beeswax helps lock in moisture and adds a soft, velvety finish. The result is skin that feels smooth, hydrated, and protected — never oily.
How does the sunscreen work?
Our Tallow Mineral Sunscreen works by using non-nano zinc oxide, a natural mineral that sits on the surface of your skin to physically block and reflect harmful UV rays, rather than absorbing them like chemical sunscreens do. The 35% zinc oxide content provides SPF 50+ broad-spectrum protection, shielding you from both UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays. The base of grass-fed tallow and beeswax helps the zinc spread evenly and stay put, while iron oxides add natural tint and extra protection from blue light and visible light exposure. Together, these ingredients form a gentle, breathable barrier that protects, nourishes, and heals the skin — naturally.
Does it actually work?
Yes — it really does! 🌿Our sunscreen has been carefully formulated with 35% non-nano zinc oxide for true SPF 50+ protection. The mineral zinc reflects UV rays away from your skin, while the tallow and beeswax base keeps it evenly distributed and long-lasting. You’ll stay protected, hydrated, and glowing all day.
Is it good for my skin?
Absolutely. Tallow is naturally rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, and essential fatty acids that nourish, repair, and strengthen the skin barrier. Beeswax creates a breathable layer that seals in moisture, and zinc oxide helps calm irritation and redness. Iron oxides not only provide a natural tint but also offer extra defence against environmental stressors. The result is soft, radiant, healthy skin that’s protected and deeply hydrated.
