Little Midwest Farm

I was a little surprised to find that so many people wanted pure tallow balm, no oils, no extras, just pure tallow. This continues to be one of my most popular products, and although it sounds simple, this balm requires a lot of extra work compared to the other tallow balms to make sure it’s smooth and scent-free.

Avoiding synthetic, potentially-toxic colorants has been a must in my maker’s journey. Natural colorants may be trickier to work with, but absolutely beautiful and worth it!

This was the first time I’ve ever been on a podcast, so I was a little nervous to be honest!

I was honored to be a guest on the How to Sell Your Stuff on Etsy podcast. If you want to hear the story of how Little Midwest Farm began as well as a little behind the scenes, I would recommend you go listen/watch. Or, if you are interested in starting a business, especially on Etsy, Lizzie’s podcast is gold 🤩✨

Can I give you a cup of tea?

Yep, you heard me right. I am giving away packets of my loose leaf herbal tea blend for you to try!

The tea has minty tones of peppermint and spearmint, the gentle soothing of raspberry leaf, and the sweet (yes! sweet!) smoothness of licorice root. If you love herbal tea, claim your cup!

How to get it...

~If you see me, ask me for one

~Shoot me a message that you're coming to my place to pick one up

~Ask about shipping it... I might if I can figure it out, but you pay. 🤨🤔

Because my herb supplier has raised their prices, mine will have to rise soon too! But for now a 4 oz. bag of tea is $8.20

If I could use only one product on my face, it would be tallow.

"Tallow, as in, like, cow fat?" You ask.

Yep. Cow fat. Here are just a couple reasons why:

~ Tallow naturally contains abundant A, D, E, K, and B12 vitamins, along with conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) which is highly anti-inflammatory. Many claim it helps clear acne. Yay!

~ Tallow is comparable to our own skin, which makes it easier for our skin to recognize. Our skin accepts it more readily than vegetable-based products which tend to sit on the surface of our skin.

~ Tallow contains collagen. That collagen slows the rate of water loss from our skin and helps keep the skin supple. Some folks have found it helps with wrinkles too!

A little goes a long way. I have about 10 times more tallow balm on my face in this picture than I ever use!
