This balm contains none of that. What it contains is five ingredients — each chosen because it works, and for no other reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Grass-Finished Tallow\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrass-fed, grass-finished beef tallow has a lipid profile closer to human skin than almost any plant-based oil. It absorbs without residue, doesn't disrupt the skin barrier, and provides fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K in the ratios your skin is designed to use. This is what humans used before the synthetic skincare industry existed — and the skin understood it then the same way it understands it now. \u003cem\u003eMany Amazon \"tallow balms\" are grass-fed but not grass-finished. That last 90 days makes the difference in the lipid profile.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy East Cape Mānuka Honey\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot all Mānuka honey is equal.
