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.
One Clean Base
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.
Three Ways to Wear It
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.
When lips feel raw, dry, or windburned. When cold air stings or sun exposure leaves you peeling. When you want a balm that actually helps lips heal—not just sit on top.
Chapped or Cracked Lips – Helps restore comfort and moisture with nourishing fats
Sensitive Skin – No lanolin, no fragrance oils, no synthetic flavors—just clean, gentle ingredients
Outdoor Exposure – Ideal for wind, dry heat, cold, or sun-damaged lips
Use a clean fingertip to smooth a small dab of balm onto your lips. Reapply throughout the day as needed, or apply a thicker layer at night for extra nourishment.
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.
100% of the tallow in our products is sourced from ONE location—Our Ranch.
100 % Grass‑Fed & Finished
Rotational grazing provides a lifelong grass diet—never a kernel of grain.
Pure Suet Only
Our tallow is made exclusively from nutrient‑rich suet. No trim fat. No dilution.
USDA‑Inspected Rendering
Certified facility ensures safe, shelf‑stability and purity.
Why Tallow Heals Where Others Just Coat
Grass-fed tallow contains the same kinds of fatty acids your skin naturally produces—like oleic and stearic acid—making it uniquely compatible with delicate lip tissue. Rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, it doesn't just protect—it helps restore dry, cracked lips at the source. Unlike petroleum-based balms that sit on the surface, tallow actually nourishes the skin beneath.
Raised, Rendered, and Crafted In-House
We never outsource our suet or rendering. Every jar begins with pasture-raised cattle and ends in our USDA-inspected facility, where we wet-render low and slow to preserve purity and create a naturally shelf-stable balm. What you get is skincare with a clear origin, crafted with care, and traceable from ranch to jar.

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.
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 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!)

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.

I love the feel and smell of the peppermint lip balm.
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.
It feels great, not heavy feeling. Nice, subtle peppermint smell. It took care of mild dryness under my lips almost immediately. I'm used to lip balm in a stick, but I'm trying to adapt.
This lip balm is wonderful. Most lip treatments claim how nourishing they are but under perform. I delayed my review till I had plenty of time trying this product. It definitely nourishes your lips instead of drying them out after a few days of use. Thank you for such a wonderful product. Try it you won't be sorry.
My nose did not enjoy the smell of this product. Doesn't stay long on the lips and didn't notice the effect of anything helpful. Others may enjoy the scent, or experience the benefits, but I did not. I will keep looking for a better product for my lips.

Hi Debbie, thanks for taking the time to provide a detailed review. We understand scent can be a personal thing and this just might not be a fit for you. I just sent you an email - we're going to make it right.
Talk to you soon,

Another fabulous product! My lips are always dry, cracking in the dry air of Arizona. This is so soothing and the bit of mint is refreshing. A must have!
