LITTLE VALLEY TALLOW Skincare Co.
A gentle, protective balm crafted to support the skin while spending time outdoors.
Sunshine Balm is made with a small, intentional blend of ingredients chosen for their soothing and protective qualities. Designed for everyday outdoor use, this balm helps care for the skin when you’re out enjoying the sunshine—without synthetic filters or unnecessary additives.
At the base of this formula is grass-fed, grass-finished tallow, a deeply nourishing fat rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K. Because it closely mirrors the skin’s natural oils, it helps moisturize, protect, and support the skin barrier.
Uncoated, non-nano zinc oxide powder provides gentle, mineral-based protection while helping to calm and soothe the skin.
Organic red raspberry seed oil is rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids, supporting skin resilience and helping maintain moisture during sun exposure. Raspberry Seed Oil is also a natural SPF.
Handcrafted in the Okanagan with love

I’m a big fan of tallow and this feels fantastic on my skin.
Brian! I am so happy you are loving your tallow! Your kind words and business are so gratefully appreciated.
Absolutely loving the Sunshine Balm! It works great and makes my skin happy! The ingredients are so clean and it feels good to know im not putting all those harsh chemicals on my skin. Highly recommend!!
Brittany! I am so happy you love your tallow thank you so much for the kind words! I love being able to provide a clean and natural alternative!
Fantastic! I have been looking for an alternative sunscreen for my family for the last couple of years as I didn't want to keep using the toxic garbage they sell everywhere. I was nervous it wouldn't work as well but we've been using it all Summer and no one has been burnt yet and it's been very hot!!! My kids (6 and 8 years old) take it to their Summer daycare/camps and apply it themselves and have had no problems. My daughter and me can get bad eczema in the Summer from normal sunscreen and neither of us has had an outbreak yet, actually our skin feels softer then ever! I would 100% suggest using this product. The day we bought it we tossed all other sunscreens we had in our house in the garbage and we haven't looked back!
Oh my goodness, your feedback made me tear up I am so beyond happy to be able to help you and your family with a clean sun protectant. Thank you for your kind words and I am ao happy you are loving your tallow
Finally i can ditch my toxic sunscreen and move to an all natural sunscreen that works
Oh I am so happy you are loving your Sunshine Balm!!
We started using the sunshine balm last year on our entire family, including our grand baby. It works wonderfully! Safe sun protection without the horrible chemicals ! We love Little Valley Tallow!
I am so happy you and your family are loving your tallow. This is why I love what I do! I love being able to help those with clean and natural ingredients to put on your skin I am truly grateful to you! Thank you!!
FAQ
What is tallow skincare?
Tallow is a traditional skincare ingredient made from rendered beef fat. Its composition is remarkably similar to our skin’s natural oils, called sebum, which allows it to absorb easily and support the skin barrier rather than disrupt it.
Why do you use grass-fed, grass-finished tallow?
I use grass-fed, grass-finished beef suet (kidney fat only) because it is the purest and most nutrient-rich form of tallow. It comes from healthy cows and is free from antibiotics and hormones, resulting in a cleaner, higher-quality skincare product.
Are your products safe for babies and children?
Yes. Many of my products — especially Unscented — are gentle enough for babies and children. If you’re unsure, I always recommend starting with an unscented option and doing a small patch test first.
Can tallow clog pores?
Tallow is non-comedogenic for most people and closely mimics the skin’s natural sebum. Many customers with acne-prone or sensitive skin find tallow helps calm and balance their skin rather than clogging it.
What does tallow smell like?
Tallow has a very mild, natural scent. Essential oils are added to select products intentionally and gently for additional benefit, and add additional scent, not to overpower it. Unscented products contain no essential oils and retain a soft, natural aroma from the ingredients.
Do your products contain fragrance or synthetic ingredients?
No.
All products are free from:
• Synthetic or artificial fragrance
• Fillers
• Preservatives
• Artificial additives
Any scent comes naturally from essential oils or from the ingredients themselves.
How should I store my products?
Store at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Because these products are made without preservatives, temperature extremes may change texture but not effectiveness.
Do your products have a shelf life?
When stored properly, all products have a shelf life of 12–18 months. Even then, you can always stick it in the fridge! Always use clean hands to avoid introducing moisture into the jar.
What skin types are your products suitable for?
Little Valley Tallow products are suitable for all skin types, including:
• Sensitive skin
• Dry or dehydrated skin
• Reactive or eczema-prone skin
• Maturing skin
Many customers turn to tallow after struggling with irritation from conventional skincare.
How do I know which product is right for me?
Each product page includes detailed descriptions to help guide you. If you’re unsure, start with:
• Unscented for sensitive or reactive skin
• Frankincense for acne or facial care
• Skin Deep for very dry or cracked areas
Can I use your products on my face and body?
Yes. All of my products are formulated to be versatile and can be used head to toe, unless otherwise noted in the product description.
Where are your products made?
All products are handcrafted by me, in small batches, in the Okanagan, British Columbia, with care, love and intention.
How long does shipping take?
Orders are typically processed within 2–5 business days. Shipping times vary depending on location. Once your order ships, you’ll receive tracking information.
Do you offer refunds or returns?
Because these are personal care products, returns are handled on a case-by-case basis. If there is an issue with your order, please reach out through the Contact page and we will find a solution.
