A natural, safe, & nontoxic tallow-based sun protectant (not an "official" sunscreen).
handcrafted with pure and organic ingredients:
grass-finished beef tallow | non-nano/uncoated zinc oxide | jojoba oil | local beeswax | and cacao powder
2 oz
This product is intended for when long sun exposure cannot be avoided.
The best sun protection is slow exposure! Spend 10-30 minute increments in direct sunlight with minimal layers, no hat, and no sunglasses... This tells your brain to produce melanin to help protect your skin from burning. Wear layers and take breaks in the shade.Zinc Oxide is known to block Vitamin D from being absorbed into the skin. While no one likes a sun burn... Vitamin D is essential to our health and cannot be made by the body. We rely on the sun and other sources to get it. It's best to sit in the sun for a while (previously mentioned) prior to applying.
Apply when and wherever sun exposure cannot be avoided. Use a small amount and massage onto skin as needed. Beeswax helps with water-proofing but monitor your skin to ensure your not burning if sweating or swimming.
Sun screen and similar products are not recommended for infants under 6 months old due to their inability to regulate body temperature. Use personal discretion if using with infants. Sun protectant clothing is always recommended over the use of sunscreen and other protectants.
Nano/coated Zinc Oxide is toxic to humans. When shopping for products with Zinc Oxide, always choose non-nano and uncoated Zinc Oxide. Non-nano, uncoated Zinc Oxide is the rawest, purest form of Zinc Oxide. It works as an astringent, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and sun protectant. The body uses this trace mineral to form and repair connective tissue. It is a natural UV-filter and protects against sun burn. Nano Zinc Oxide can be absorbed into the blood stream and is excreted in urine, which then enters the water and causes damage to aquatic life and bleaches coral reefs. Non-Nano Zinc Oxide is a safe alternative as it does not absorb into the skin or harm marine wildlife. The coating used is triethoxycaprylylsilane. It is synthetic and allegedly helps to mix with other ingredients. It allegedly prevents the formation of free radicals created by zinc oxide but there isn’t much evidence to support this claim. Since the Zinc Oxide used by Apotheke DuJardin is non-nano and uncoated, it is safe for topical use even during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Great pain reducer! Excellent product with clean ingredients.
This salve has been so helpful for my back and shoulder pain. Really takes the edge off and allows me to relax. It also significantly speeds up how quickly my bruises heal.
I absolutely love this beauty stick. I keep it in my car to put on my hands and will keep another one at my desk at work. It’s perfect because it’s not messy at all, smells great, and moisturizes so well. My hands have never been softer or more supple. I’ve switched over basically my entire skincare routine to Apotheke DuJardin products because they are so amazing. I sincerely trust this business and their quality products.
This magnesium spray has been a game changer for me. I was unsuccessfully taking several different magnesium supplements, trying to get ahead of my muscle cramps, and nothing worked. I tried this magnesium spray and never looked back, just purchased my third bottle!!
This was my first box of the month and I loved everything inside but my two favorites were the Peppermint Tallow Cream and the Cuticle Oil! I have used every product daily in my home (room spray) and on my body! Thank you for your wonderful products!
