At Mayberry Farms, we’re all about creating nourishing skincare products with ingredients sourced straight from our farm. Two of our most popular creations are our Tallow Body Balm and Body Butter. While both are designed to keep your skin hydrated and healthy, they each have unique qualities that make them special. So, what’s the difference? Let’s break it down.

Tallow Body Balm

Our Tallow Body Balm is a deeply nourishing product made primarily with locally sourced beef tallow from May Hill Farm in Campbellsport whipped to creamy perfection, offering a lighter, more spreadable texture. 

Key Features:

• Texture: Light, fluffy, and easy to apply.

• Purpose: Ideal for repairing extremely dry, cracked, or irritated skin.

• Ingredients: Locally sourced tallow, raw honey and a touch of farm-grown herbal-infused olive oil for added benefits.

• Best For: Targeted care—think elbows, knees, heels, and any areas needing extra love.

Why We Love It:

Tallow, a time-honored skincare ingredient, tallow is incredibly similar to the natural fats and oils found in human skin, making it highly compatible and easily absorbed. It's also a great way to naturally remove makeup especially mascara and eye shadow! 

Body Butter

This luxurious formula blends plant-based oils and butters with a touch of raw honey and beeswax, creating a thick natural barrier that locks in moisture and protects your skin from the elements, making it perfect for wintertime or anyone dealing with persistent dryness.

Key Features:

• Texture: Firm and concentrated. A little goes a long way.

• Purpose: All-over hydration for daily use.

• Ingredients: The same locally sourced tallow, along with coconut and sunflower oils, beeswax, raw honey and our farm-infused herbal oils.

• Best For: Everyday use on larger areas like arms, legs, and torso.

Why We Love It:

Body Butter provides lasting hydration without feeling heavy or greasy, making it the perfect go-to for keeping skin soft and supple year-round.

Which One Should You Choose?

When deciding between the Tallow Body Balm and Body Butter, think about your skin’s needs:

• For Deep Repair: If you’re dealing with very dry, cracked, or problem areas, the Tallow Body Balm is your best bet. Its dense, nutrient-rich formula works wonders on tough spots.

• For Everyday Moisture: If you want a lightweight, all-over moisturizer to keep your skin soft and hydrated, the Body Butter is the way to go.

Of course, you don’t have to choose just one—many of our customers love using both! Start your day with the Body Butter for all-over hydration and keep the Tallow Body Balm on hand for targeted care when you need it. 

At Mayberry Farms, we’re proud to offer products that are not only effective but also made with love and care using farm-fresh ingredients. Whether you’re a Body Butter fan, a Tallow Body Balm devotee, or both, your skin will thank you for choosing nourishing, natural care.
