Santa Cruz Paleo, Beef Tallow Sun Balm with Non-Nano Zinc Oxide, Sunscreen Free, Unscented, Natural Mineral Sun Protection for Face & Body, Acne Safe, Moisturizer, Non Comedogenic, Organic Balm, 2 Oz

Took this on a trip to France and we were able to be at the beach clubs and walking around the towns with no issues of burning. We paired this with the beef tallow to make sure our skin was nice and hydrated. Would recommend for any beach vacation or just being outside.

Good sunscreen but be prepared for an odd smell. Reasonable though because they do not add any extra ingredients.

I’ve been on the hunt for a trustworthy tallow sun balm, and I’m glad to say I’ve finally found one. This balm is a solid choice if you’re looking to move away from sunscreens with questionable chemicals. The product is a bit thicker, so you do need to take your time rubbing it in, and if you apply too much, it can leave a slight white cast. However, the extra effort is worth it for the peace of mind that comes with using minimal and natural ingredients. It’s fragrance-free and leaves my skin with a nice glow without peeling or flaking, even after reapplying. Overall, it’s a reliable sun protection option that aligns with my preference for cleaner skincare products. Solid Product.

Works great & is an amazing & pure product. Sure it leaves a white cast & who cares! Never burned once. Thank you, now I don’t have to make my own. I am updating this review. My 2nd order came with a white lid not gold, no big deal. However it has a lot of product missing & I believe it has been used so I am sending it back & I will try it again. I am so disappointed & pretty grossed out from this.

This sunblock has clean ingredients with just beef tallow and zinc oxide. I bought this for a recent trip to Florida and while I still got fried, its because I didn't really re-apply :) When I used it this weekend back up north on my face before pool time, I did not get sunburn at all. -Compared to other brands its priced OK. -Does it work? Yes! Reapply it in high UV index. -Hows it go on? Easy to apply, very creamy. Doesnt feel greasy IMO. -Does it leave a white cast? Yes, all zinc oxides do. But the more you rub it in, the less it looks white -Does it smell like beef tallow? Kinda, yes! If you can get over that, go ahead and buy it. -Should they have put a scent in it? Definitely. Perhaps another mix cut with something that smells a bit better like jojoba, coconut or almond oil would be better.

I’ve been using this beef tallow balm for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed. The texture is rich but not greasy, and it melts right into the skin, leaving it soft, smooth, and deeply moisturized. I love knowing that it’s made with simple, natural ingredients—especially the beef tallow, which my skin seems to absolutely thrive on. It’s helped calm my dry patches, and even my hands (which usually crack in the winter) feel nourished and healthy. Plus, there’s something timeless and comforting about using a product that’s rooted in traditional skincare. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a clean, effective, and skin-loving balm!

I bought this product and then returned it after realizing it doesn't have an SPF rating. Why is this a big deal? From what I've read online, zinc oxide has a tendency to clump up, leaving "holes" between particles. These holes are smaller than what the human eye can see, meaning you could unknowingly leave your skin unprotected. This is why homemade sunscreens are frowned upon. Until it has been 3rd party tested and given an SPF rating, I'm not going to buy this again. There is a reason why every dermatologist recommends sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher. I love Brendan and have bought his electrolytes several times, but this sunscreen isn't a product they should be selling, in my opinion.

idk if i got the correct one or if they have been doing it differently but there is no white cast or a heavy feel when i put it on it’s very smooth and non irritating. usually the sunscreen i got from them kinda irritated my skin making it feel clogged a little and had a white cast but now it doesn’t feels like a moisturizer
