For those who love the richness and reliability of grass-fed tallow, but enjoy the clean, fresh feel of real peppermint on their lips. This Christmas edition is built for people who want serious nourishment in a simple formula, with a natural mint profile that makes it easy to reach for throughout the day and night.
It is made with the same concentrated tallow base you expect from us, then finished with pure peppermint oil to create a clear, honest mint scent and a light cooling sensation when applied.
Key Ingredients & Their Benefits
Grass-Fed Beef Tallow
Tallow is the core of this formula. It contains a blend of fatty acids, including oleic, palmitic, stearic and linoleic acids, that closely resemble the lipids found in healthy human skin. That similarity is what allows it to absorb so comfortably and support the lip barrier directly.
It is also naturally rich in vitamins A, D, E and K, which play key roles in skin repair, softness and resilience. On the lips, this translates to less flaking, reduced roughness and a more stable, comfortable feel over time. Instead of sitting on top as a layer that disappears quickly, tallow works with the skin to maintain moisture from within.
Sheep Lanolin
Lanolin is known for its ability to bind and hold water within the skin. On the lips, it helps keep hydration in place and reduces the cycle of drying, tightening and splitting, especially at the corners. It supports flexibility so the skin can move and stretch without breaking.
In combination with tallow, lanolin gives the balm a “cushioned” feel. The lips stay softer for longer, and the comfort does not vanish the moment you eat, drink or talk. It is especially useful during periods of travel, air conditioning and changing temperatures.
Natural Beeswax
Beeswax gives the balm its structure and staying power. It forms a breathable protective layer that slows down moisture loss and shields the lips from wind, dry air and general environmental stress.
Because beeswax is firm at room temperature and softens with warmth, it helps the balm glide on smoothly and then stay put. This allows the tallow and lanolin underneath to keep working throughout the day.
Peppermint Oil
Peppermint oil is used here for its clean, recognisable scent and the gentle cooling sensation it brings on contact. It gives the balm a fresh mint profile without sweetness or artificial flavour.
Beyond the scent, peppermint can help the lips feel clearer and more awake when they are tired, dry or weather-affected. The level is balanced so it remains comfortable for regular use while still giving that distinct peppermint character that makes you feel like you've just eaten a candy cane!
Perfect For
• Lips that crack or peel easily and need long-lasting nourishment
• Daily barrier support in changing weather or air-conditioned environments
• Sensitive or reactive skin that responds best to minimal, purposeful ingredients
• Anyone wanting richer moisture without the glossy or slippery feel of synthetic balms
Why Tallow for Lip Care
Lips do not produce their own oils, which means they rely entirely on what you apply to them for protection and comfort. Tallow is uniquely suited to this because its fatty acid profile is so close to the skin’s own. The lips recognise it and use it to reinforce the barrier instead of letting it sit as a temporary coating.
When tallow is combined with lanolin and beeswax, you get a formula that supports both immediate relief and longer-term improvement. The barrier is strengthened, moisture is held more effectively and the lips become less prone to constant dryness and peeling with regular use.
This Christmas peppermint edition delivers those same benefits in a version that feels fresh, familiar and seasonally special. It is a straightforward, concentrated balm built around ingredients that work, with peppermint added to make it a little more enjoyable to reach for every single day during the Christmas period.

Skin Experience
Our 100% tallow formulas - like Pure Tallow Glow and Vanilla Infused Tallow - are dense and firm by nature. These recipes contain no carrier oils or additives, which means the texture is harder but melts directly into the skin on contact.
If you prefer a softer, more spreadable consistency, our balms made with added carrier oils (like Radiant Repair and Balancing Beauty) are whipped to be lighter, silkier, and easier to apply.
Each product offers a different skin feel, all intentionally formulated for different needs and preferences.

Frequently Asked Questions
Beef tallow is rendered fat from cattle, rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, as well as essential fatty acids. Its composition closely resembles the natural oils found in human skin, making it an excellent moisturiser and skin barrier protector. In skincare, it’s used to deeply nourish, hydrate, and support skin health without synthetic additives.
Beef tallow has a low comedogenic rating, meaning it is unlikely to clog pores. It helps balance natural oil production, making it suitable even for acne-prone skin when used correctly.
Our beef tallow comes from a trusted local farm in Sunshine Coast, QLD. The cattle are 100% grass-fed, homegrown, and raised without hormones or antibiotics in a natural, stress-free environment. This ensures our tallow is nutrient-rich, ethical, and sustainably sourced.
Absolutely! Beef tallow is excellent for facial skin, providing deep hydration without clogging pores. It’s especially beneficial for dry or sensitive skin and can even help soothe conditions like eczema or rosacea.
Store your Fat Lab skincare products in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Our products are shelf-stable but keeping them at room temperature or cooler will ensure maximum freshness.
Unlike shea butter or coconut oil, beef tallow’s composition closely mimics human skin, making it more easily absorbed. It also provides a unique balance of vitamins and fatty acids that are particularly effective for long-lasting hydration and skin repair.
Yes, we use 100% grass-fed beef suet fat as the base of our skincare. Suet is the clean, hard fat found around the kidneys and loins of healthy, grass-fed cattle, known for being nutrient-dense and exceptionally pure. When it’s slowly rendered, it turns into tallow, a rich stable fat naturally packed with vitamins A, D, E and K, as well as conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and essential fatty acids that closely mirror the oils our skin produces on its own.
We choose suet because it creates a higher-grade tallow that’s cleaner, lighter and more stable than other fats. It absorbs effortlessly into the skin, delivers deep nourishment without synthetic additives, and supports the skin barrier in a way no plant or synthetic oil can. In short, suet is the gold standard of animal fats and the reason our tallow performs the way it does.
Our beef tallow is carefully rendered and refined to remove impurities and odours. While it has a mild, natural scent, we also blend it with essential oils or botanicals for a pleasant aroma in our skincare products.
Our beef tallow is not halal-certified. We source our suet from a small, local Queensland farm that raises 100% grass-fed, hormone-free cattle, but the animals are not processed under halal certification. While our products contain no pork or alcohol and are made from pure beef fat, we do not market them as halal.

Why Your Body
LOVES Tallow
It mirrors the skin’s own lipids
Tallow’s fatty acid profile closely resembles the fats found in healthy human skin. That similarity makes it easier for the skin to recognise and integrate, rather than treat it as something foreign.
It supports the skin barrier.
Tallow reinforces the lipid barrier that controls moisture loss and protection. When the barrier is supported, skin becomes calmer, more resilient, and less reactive over time.
It delivers fat-soluble nutrients the skin actually uses.
Naturally occurring vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat-soluble, meaning the skin can access them effectively when delivered in a fat-based form like tallow.
It provides long-lasting hydration without water
Because tallow is anhydrous, it doesn’t rely on water that evaporates quickly. It reduces moisture loss by sealing and supporting the barrier, leading to hydration that lasts.
It’s highly tolerated by compromised or sensitive skin
Skin that struggles with irritation, over-exfoliation, or chronic dryness often responds better to familiar lipid structures. Tallow is rarely disruptive when formulated and used properly.
It works with skin biology, not against it
Tallow doesn’t stimulate, exfoliate, or force change. It supports normal skin function, allowing the skin to repair, stabilise, and regulate itself.
