Our philosophy:
We believe sun care should never come at the cost of your skin’s health. Rootd’s Tallow + Zinc balm food-grade, skin-recognizable ingredients to create a creamy balm that shields while it nourishes. With no hidden toxins, fillers, or chemicals, it’s sun care the way nature intended.
How to use:
Apply generously to skin before sun exposure, covering all exposed areas evenly. Reapply every 2 hours, or after swimming, sweating, or towel-drying. For prolonged sun exposure, we highly recommend pairing with shade, a wide-brim hat, and protective clothing for best results.
Ingredients:
Grass-fed beef suet tallow, 30 % non-nano zinc oxide, cold-pressed organic jojoba oil, organic coconut oil, organic raw cocoa butter, Cape beeswax.
Estimated Sun Protection Notes:
This product is not labeled with an official SPF rating due to regulatory requirements.
However, based on general formulation guidelines:
- A concentration of 30 % non-nano zinc oxide typically provides an estimated SPF of around 25 – 30, depending on thickness of application.
-
Grass-fed tallow may contribute a natural UV protection estimate of SPF 2 – 4.
Because these are only estimates, we strongly recommend liberal, frequent re-application and supplementing with shade and protective clothing for complete sun care.
Important Sun-Safety Reminders:
- Apply a generous, visible layer for full coverage.
- Reapply at least every 2 hours, and always after swimming or sweating.
- Limit time in direct sunlight, especially between peak hours.
- Use hats and lightweight long sleeves for added protection.
- No sunscreen, even natural or mineral replaces shade and smart sun habits.
What is tallow, and why do you use it?
What is tallow, and why do you use it?
Tallow is rendered fat from grass-fed, pasture-raised cattle. It closely mirrors our skin’s natural structure, making it deeply nourishing and easily absorbed. At Rootd, we render our own tallow in small batches for purity and control. You can read our full blog post on tallow here.
