How to Use Seabuckthorn Tallow Balm in Your Skincare Routine

03 Jul 2025

Is Seabuckthorn Tallow Balm the secret to radiant, hydrated skin? Absolutely. This balm combines the potent benefits of seabuckthorn with the nourishing properties of tallow, creating a powerhouse product perfect for addressing summer skin concerns. Australia often brings a mix of sun exposure and dry air, making it crucial to choose skincare that protects and revitalises.

What is Seabuckthorn Tallow Balm?

Seabuckthorn Tallow Balm is a deeply restorative blend of grass-fed tallow and potent Sea Buckthorn CO₂ extract, two natural ingredients chosen for their unique ability to support sensitive, stressed, or inflamed skin. Rich in skin-compatible nutrients, this balm delivers lasting hydration and promotes healthy skin regeneration. Sea Buckthorn offers a powerful dose of antioxidants and omega fatty acids, while tallow works in harmony with the skin’s natural barrier. As with every Tallo Skin product, it’s made without synthetic fillers or harsh chemicals. Just pure, non-toxic nourishment designed to bring your skin back into balance.

What Makes Seabuckthorn a Hero Ingredient?

Seabuckthorn earns its 'hero' status due to its exceptional nutritional composition and potent effects on the skin. This vibrant orange berry is packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids, making it a wonder for skincare. Its benefits include:

  • High concentration of Vitamin C: More than oranges, providing strong antioxidant protection.

  • Omega Fatty Acids: Including Omega 3, 6, 7, and 9, which are crucial for skin hydration and elasticity.

  • Antioxidants: Such as Vitamin E and carotenoids, which protect against environmental damage.

  • Anti-inflammatory properties: Help to soothe and calm irritated skin.

Why Tallo Skin Uses COâ‚‚-Extracted Sea Buckthorn

At Tallo Skin, we believe that how an ingredient is sourced is just as important as what it does for your skin. That’s why we use CO₂ extraction to obtain our Sea Buckthorn. This clean, low-temperature method uses pressurised carbon dioxide to gently draw out the most beneficial compounds from the berries, without relying on harsh solvents or heat.

This process preserves the complete integrity of the plant. Compared to traditional extraction methods, COâ‚‚ extraction offers clear advantages:

  • Purity: Maintains the natural profile of the plant, free from chemical residues.

  • Potency: Concentrates key actives like vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids.

  • Safety: A gentle, non-toxic method that protects both the ingredient and your skin.

  • Eco-Friendly: Utilises recyclable COâ‚‚ and leaves no harmful impact on the environment.

It’s all part of our commitment to ingredient integrity — creating skincare that works in harmony with your skin and the planet.

How Sea Buckthorn Helps Prevent Moisture Loss

Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL) is the natural process where water evaporates from the skin’s surface. When TEWL is elevated, it can lead to dryness, dehydration, and a weakened skin barrier, often contributing to irritation or flare-ups. Sea Buckthorn oil is a powerful ally in reducing TEWL, helping the skin stay hydrated, nourished, and resilient.

Sea Buckthorn supports moisture retention through multiple pathways:

  • Omega Fatty Acids: A rich source of omega 3, 6, 7, and 9, Sea Buckthorn helps strengthen the skin’s lipid barrier — the outer layer that prevents water from escaping.

  • Antioxidant Protection: Its high concentration of antioxidants defends the skin from environmental stress, which can compromise the barrier and increase moisture loss.

  • Natural Emollient Action: Sea Buckthorn forms a soft, breathable layer over the skin, helping to lock in hydration and reduce evaporation.

This combination makes Sea Buckthorn especially beneficial for dry, sensitive, or barrier-compromised skin, offering lasting support where your skin needs it most.

Skin Benefits of Sea Buckthorn in Your Routine

Incorporating Sea Buckthorn into your skincare routine offers a wide range of benefits, particularly for dry, inflamed, or sensitive skin that requires extra support during the cooler months.

Supports Skin Regeneration

Sea Buckthorn is renowned for its ability to support skin repair and renewal. Rich in vitamins A, C, and E, as well as omega-7 and beta-carotene, it encourages healthy cell turnover and helps improve the appearance of scars, blemishes, and uneven texture. When blended with grass-fed tallow, which mimics the skin’s natural oils, these nutrients are delivered deeply and effectively, amplifying their restorative benefits.

Reduces Inflammation and Calms Irritated Skin

Thanks to its concentrated blend of antioxidants and essential fatty acids, Sea Buckthorn offers natural anti-inflammatory support. This makes it particularly helpful for skin conditions such as eczema, rosacea, or acne, where inflammation plays a significant role. It helps calm flare-ups and soothe reactive skin without overwhelming it.

Strengthens the Skin Barrier

A strong skin barrier is essential for retaining moisture and protecting against environmental stressors. The omega-rich profile of Sea Buckthorn helps fortify this barrier, making the skin more resilient, hydrated, and less prone to irritation, especially in dry, winter air.

A Subtle Aromatherapeutic Experience

While not overpowering, Sea Buckthorn offers a natural, earthy aroma that adds a gentle grounding element to your skincare ritual. Combined with the softness of tallow and calming notes like ylang ylang (used in Tallow Balm), it creates a multi-sensory moment that supports both skin and spirit.

Best Practices for Application

To get the most out of your Seabuckthorn Tallow Balm, it’s essential to apply it with care and intention. Here’s a simple routine to help your skin absorb every nourishing benefit:

  1. Start with a Clean Base: Gently cleanse your face to remove buildup, sunscreen, or makeup. Use a mild, non-stripping cleanser that respects your skin barrier.

  2. Balance with a Toner (Optional): If you use a toner, apply it now to support hydration and help your skin better absorb the balm.

  3. Apply the Balm: Warm a small amount of Seabuckthorn Tallow Balm between your fingertips. Gently massage it into your skin using slow, upward, circular motions. This allows the balm to melt in and nourish deeply.

  4. Target Dry or Irritated Areas: Focus on areas that require extra support, such as dry patches, fine lines, or those prone to sensitivity. The balm works exceptionally well as an overnight treatment in these zones.

Ideal Timing and Frequency

  • Morning: Apply a light layer to nourish and shield your skin from environmental stressors throughout the day.

  • Evening: Use a more generous amount as part of your night routine to deeply hydrate and repair while you sleep.

  • Frequency: Suitable for daily use or as needed, depending on how thirsty or sensitive your skin feels.

Whether used sparingly or as a deeply replenishing ritual, Seabuckthorn Tallow Balm delivers grounded, non-toxic care that supports lasting skin health.

Is Seabuckthorn Tallow Balm Suitable for All Skin Types?

Absolutely. Seabuckthorn Tallow Balm is thoughtfully formulated to support all skin types, from dry and sensitive to oily or eczema-prone. Grass-fed tallow closely mimics the skin’s natural oils, making it a deeply nourishing yet non-irritating option. Sea Buckthorn CO₂ extract adds powerful anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties, helping to calm flare-ups and support healing. Gentle, non-toxic, and free from synthetic fillers, this balm is a safe and practical choice for anyone seeking skin that feels balanced, comforted, and well-cared for.
