*only in scented options
No Phthalates, No Parabens
Hand-crafted & 3rd-party tested
100% Grass-fed & Finished
Simple, effective, and crafted for comfort. Our Tallow Lip Balm blends grass-fed suet tallow with jojoba oil and beeswax to deliver long-lasting hydration—without the shine, stickiness, or synthetic fillers of conventional chapsticks. It's lip care the way it should be—clean, nourishing, and truly healing.
Every Tallow Lip Balm starts with the same three whole-food ingredients. The only thing that changes is the finish.
Grass-Fed Suet Tallow – Rendered from premium kidney suet, this nutrient-rich fat closely mimics the skin's own lipid structure, supporting healing, softness, and long-lasting moisture.
Jojoba Oil – A plant-based liquid wax nearly identical to human sebum. It absorbs easily, balances the heavier tallow, and soothes irritation without clogging or greasiness.
Beeswax – Adds breathable protection and a smooth glide while locking in hydration. Naturally antimicrobial and calming for sensitive, cracked lips.
Hand-rendered in small batches from kidney suet raised on our New Jersey ranch, this balm melts effortlessly into lips to replenish moisture and support the natural barrier. The same nourishing base in every jar—you just pick the scent that suits you.
Peppermint – A cooling, refreshing tingle from real peppermint essential oil—no fake mint flavors or synthetic sweeteners. Gently energizing and subtly soothing.
Cherry Vanilla – The same clean base with cherry and vanilla essential oils for a soft, naturally sweet finish—warm and comforting, never candy-like or artificial.
Unscented – Just the three-ingredient base. No scent, no additives—ideal for the most sensitive lips and anyone who prefers fragrance-free.
Our 100% grass-fed, grass-finished tallow comes from one place—our ranch. Crafted in small batches, from cattle raised on carefully selected grasses and open pastures on our family-owned farm.
Perfect for dry skin, sensitive skin, eczema, and daily moisturizing.
We could tell you it works, but they tell the story better.

Love this new peppermint lip balm - smooth not greasy. At first I thought it was a bit pricey but was pleasantly surprised by the generous size. I’m chapstick addicted and have been applying this balm nightly before bed. After 3 nights I’m already noticing that I need less chapstick during the day. Hope this trend continues!
My husband and I have been using it everyday since we got it. We have noticed a change in our lips in that they are more hydrated and softer/healthier. Thank you very much!
I love this lip balm! The peppermint flavor is perfect and I really like the texture. My lips feel super soft and it lasts so much longer than other products. My lips feel hydrated all day. Definitely try it!
I’ve been using this lip balm for about three days and I love it so far. The peppermint scent is refreshing, and it’s been keeping my lips moisturized during this cold weather.

I’m 67 and work outside a lot so I need to Protect delicate skin and replenish any dryness. Love this product, heals chapped lips fast.!
I really liked the product because it leaves my lips very soft after being very dry from the weather.
This tallow peppermint lip balm is amazing! It comes in a nice size jar; 1 oz! And it's thick! It goes on very smooth, and soaks into your lips, leaving them so soft and hydrated. Perfect alone or under lip gloss/tint/lipstick. I'm a lip balm hound, and this is a new favorite! I love the peppermint! Rancher's Render meant what they said; this is a high quality balm!
Rancher’s Render Premium Tallow Lip Balm hydrates my lips and leaves them feeling soft and smooth without a tacky feeling. The peppermint flavor is cool and refreshing. I love that the tallow is made with all natural ingredients.
I could open my own lip care shop with the amount of chapsticks, lip creams, lipbalms that I have tried. They all failed. I live in Arizona's high desert so dry lips come with the territory. I love Rancher's skin tallow so decided to try the lip balm when I renewed my skin tallow order. Wow! Something that works!! It laughs in the face of the Arizona dry air! My lips look and feel like they were when I was young. I'm 70ish, by the way. Highly recommend this awesome lip balm! Thanks for an incredible product!
Sweet little glass jar of luscious moisture. Protects really well. New favorite!
I really like the flavor of the cherry vanilla lip balm. The only thing I dislike is that I feel somewhat of a dry taste/residue in my mouth after applying it. It’s very hard to describe. It doesn’t stop me from using the lip balm, but I don’t put it on as frequently because of it.
I’m very happy with the lip balm. I’m usually a big Burt’s Bees user, but I like the way your tallow balm feels on my lips and how long it lasts.
Love it!
It works fine, I guess, but I'm almost always wearing lipstick so it's not needed and I find the regular tallow cream works better. :)
The lip balm has a smooth texture and a mild peppermint aroma. I like to use for extra moisture over night. No dry lips the next morning.
Store owner replied: Hi Rebecca, It's wonderful to hear how much you appreciate our Tallow Lip Balm.

Knowing our product helps prevent dry lips the next morning truly makes our day. Thanks again for your fantastic feedback and we hope you continue to enjoy our offerings.
The lip balm was free because I was buying a jar of tallow. It is very moisturizing & left my lips feeling soft. This is a product I would purchase again.

You can taste the scents added and it is not pleasant.
So good! Love that you get a free one with $40+ purchase
Nice smell.
This smells so good. Makes my lips soft and shiny. Got this as a free sample but will definitely be ordering more.
This softens lips and stays much longer than I thought it would. No more chapped lips and that's saying something 'cause I'm 73.
The lip balm is soft not sticky. Love it.
I was introduced to tallow skin care products years ago at a health fair. When I worked in a school setting, I washed my hands frequently and the tallow products were a lifesaver--especially during the winter months! Fast-forward several years and my young grandson started dealing with severe issues with eczema. I recommended the tallow skin cream I was using, however he could not tolerate any added scented oils and needed just the plain tallow. The one complaint his parents had was, "He smells like a hamburger." While searching the internet, I came across Rancher's Render, and in reading about their products and their method of processing, which eliminates that aroma, I decided to give their products a try. I'm so thankful I did! Rancher's Render is my new favorite brand! The lip balm actually moistures my sun dried lips, and I use both the unwhipped and whipped creams in my skin care routine! (PS One of my grandson's skin care specialists actually recommended tallow products as a non-steroidal means of addressing eczema and other dry skin issues!)
Love the smell, and it makes my lips so smooth and soft!
We like the balm but the lid doesn’t fit the container. When you try to tighten it, it just keeps going around.
Store owner replied: Hi Tammy, thanks for the review and we're glad you like the lip balm. This is the first time I've heard about any issue with the lid - that should not be happening! Appreciate you bringing this up so I can make sure this is not an issue with any other lids. Thanks for supporting the Ranch. -Stefan & Lorena
I love the feel and smell of the peppermint lip balm.
This is my absolute favorite lip balm. I will definitely be reordering. A new staple in my nighttime routine.
keeps your lips so soft
great for dry lips in lorida Sun.
The lip balm is so smooth and long lasting with a sweet minty fragrance.
Pure, clean, smooth and luscious minty feel!
I love this product it helps keep my lips soft
Very nice! Feels very nice on my lips with a little cooling from the peppermint
I am a huge fan of tallow period, but especially as lip balm. This is the second company I've ordered from, and this balm is more solid than the other company product. I like that, and I LOVE the size. This feels more akin to "chopstick" than lipgloss, and the peppermint flavor is perfect. Not too much.
Keeps my lips hydrated. I like the peppermint flavor.
Store owner replied: Thank you so much for your feedback! Lorena and Stefan
another great product and my lips are feeling so moisturized
Been using it for a few days and love it so far.
I love how it feels on my lips and the smell is delightful!
