An all-rounder for the herbal first aid kit!
Tallow and Coconut Oil infused with Comfrey (Symphytum officinale) and Goldenrod (Solidago canadensis) to create a powerhouse multi-purpose balm:
Cuts (do not use on deep wounds)
Grazes and scrapes
Sprains and breaks - to assist in recovery
Muscle aches and pains
Itches, bites, allergic topical reactions
Dry skin
Rashes and eczema (not on weeping open sores)
Mild burns and later stage burn scar recovery
Beef tallow — skin benefits and nutrient profile
Nutrient profile: predominantly stearic and palmitic acids and monounsaturated oleic acid; trace fat‑soluble vitamins A, D, E, K ; anti-inflammatory Conjugated Linoleic Acid.
Skin benefits: Rich, occlusive lipid that seals moisture and restores the skin’s barrier; stearic and palmitic acids help create a stable emollient film; oleic acid aids absorption and softening of dry, chapped skin; trace fat‑soluble vitamins can provide antioxidant and regenerative support. Very stable and long‑lasting on skin.
Coconut oil — skin benefits and nutrient profile
Nutrient profile: High in saturated fats consisting largely of medium‑chain triglycerides (mainly lauric acid, plus capric and caprylic acids); low in polyunsaturates and negligible protein or micronutrients.
Skin benefits: Excellent moisturizer that quickly forms a protective layer, reducing transepidermal water loss; lauric acid gives mild antimicrobial and antiseptic properties useful for acne‑prone or mildly irritated skin; light, fast‑absorbing feel compared with many animal fats.
