Does tallow protect against UV rays?
No—but that’s not its job. The real UV shield here is non-nano zinc oxide, a mineral sunscreen that sits on top of your skin and physically blocks UVA and UVB rays. Tallow’s role? It helps nourish and support your skin barrier, keeping it healthy, hydrated, and resilient under the sun.
Why doesn't your tallow have a beefy smell?
We use a process called Wet Rendering to purify our tallow. This method uses only water and mild natural substances like baking soda—no harsh chemicals or toxic solvents like hexane. By keeping the temperature low, we preserve the tallow’s essential nutrients and vitamins while ensuring there’s no lingering beef smell.
Does it block out UVA and UVB (Broad Spectrum)?
Absolutely! It is formulated to provide broad-spectrum protection, which means it effectively shields your skin from both UVA and UVB rays. UVA rays can prematurely age your skin, causing wrinkling and age spots, while UVB rays can burn your skin. Too much exposure to either can lead to skin cancer. Our active ingredient, non-nano zinc oxide, is a mineral that is highly effective at blocking out both types of harmful rays, keeping your skin safe and healthy under the sun. It's recommended by the FDA due to it's safety and effectiveness.

Let customers speak for us
Very healing. My skin feels amazing. We have used it on a few abrasions, and it works like magic- and it smells divine.
Shipping was timely, and was pleasantly surprised by the size of the product.
Good product! Was surprised by the size of the tin. It's worth the money!
I let my mom try it once and she immediately took it home. Guess I need to order another one.
This balm feels like a protective layer but doesn’t feel thick or greasy.
I live in Colorado and winters here destroy your face and hands. This balm is like a shield. I use it at night and I wake up with none of that tight, dry feeling. If you live in cold weather, this is a must.
I got a pretty sunburnt while skiing and rubbed this on my skin. It instantly calmed the tight feeling!
It melts like butter but somehow sinks in immediately. Way different from thick balms I’ve tried before. Feels super clean
My daughter has super sensitive skin and reacts to almost everything. This balm has been amazing for her.
I have mild eczema on my arms and this keeps flare-ups from getting bad. It doesn’t burn or sting like other products
My husband gets dry skin under his beard. This totally fixed the flakiness and made the hair softer.
I use it on my lips, hands, and even dry patches on my feet. One small jar is all you need
I work lifts at Mammoth and my hands normally get wrecked every winter. I started using Little Pasture this season and it’s the only thing that keeps my hands comfortable all day. This stuff is staying in my jacket pocket all season
I’ve finally found something that completes my skincare routine. I love knowing it’s made with natural ingredients.
I live in Nevada where the air is insanely dry. This is the first moisturizer that actually keeps my skin hydrated past an hour

Anti-White Cast Tech: Our Secret to Mineral Sunscreen
Most natural mineral sunscreens leave a white cast. Ours doesn’t. Here’s why:
- Jojoba-Coated Zinc Oxide
Our zinc oxide is coated with cold-pressed jojoba. This natural coating prevents clumping and keeps SPF protection strong.
- Tallow Rich in Oleic Acid
100% grass-fed tallow provides hydration, smooths application and naturally reduces any trace of white cast.
- Proven Results
Customers say our sunscreen leaves less white residue than ANY other natural mineral option.
The result? A natural mineral sunscreen that you won't HATE wearing.

Frequently Asked Q's
Is Little Pasture safe for sensitive or acne-prone skin?
Yes. Because tallow is bio-identical to the natural oils your skin produces, it nourishes instead of clogging. Many customers with sensitive or breakout-prone skin find it calming.
How should I store Little Pasture?
Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. It may soften in warmer temps (70°F+), but that doesn’t affect its quality.
What skin issues can Little Pasture help with?
Our customers use it daily to:
- Calm redness and irritation.
- Balance oil production and prevent breakouts.
- Smooth fine lines and wrinkle.
- Deeply hydrate dry or cracked skin
How long until I notice results?
Some people feel immediate relief (especially with dryness and irritation). Visible improvements like smoother, clearer skin often show within 2–4 weeks of consistent use.
How easy is It to use?
Scoop a small amount with clean fingers and warm it between your hands. A little goes a long way—apply to face, hands, or any dry areas and let it melt into your skin. It absorbs quickly without feeling greasy.
How often should I apply it?
Use as needed for sun exposure, we recommend reapplying every 80 minutes. A little goes a long way — start with a pea-sized amount for face & neck.
Are there any restrictions?
For external use only. Safe for all ages, including kids. If you’re allergic to beef, beeswax, or specific essential oils, patch-test first.
What if it doesn’t work for me?
We stand by our products with a 60-day money-back guarantee. If you’re not happy, we’ll make it right.
Why do you use tallow? Is it also eco-conscious and cruelty-free?
Tallow has many skin-loving properties. It's full of vitamins A, D, E, and K, all wonderful for skin health. Furthermore, it's similar to the oils our skin naturally produces, so it absorbs well and helps create a healthy skin barrier.
Also, tallow is one of the most environmentally friendly ingredients out there! Grass-fed tallow is produced with no pesticides, no fertilizers, and no industrial processing.
And for those claiming we are contributing to the killing of animals:
No rain forests or land is destroyed (like they are with seed oils).
And in fact, most tallow is thrown away, so by repurposing it, we are minimizing waste.
I’m Colin, a lifelong surfer from Costa Mesa, CA and I spent years working as a surf instructor & riding my bike for miles with my board to go surf the Wedge.
I was always outside from sunrise to sunset.
Because of that, sunscreen was something I needed constantly but I never liked the chemicals in them and the “natural” ones weren't really natural.
So I created Little Pasture Reef-Safe Tallow Sunscreen.
A natural mineral sunscreen that’s water resistant and made for surfers, athletes, or anyone who sweats or lives outside.
