From Farm to Balm

At Holistic Heritage, we believe the best skincare starts with honest ingredients. Our journey began on Irish family farms, where centuries‑old breeds roam free on lush, chemical‑free pastures. We render their grass‑fed tallow by hand, just as our ancestors did, then blend it with raw honey, olive oil, jojoba oil and raw beeswax for a time‑tested, nutrient‑rich balm.

Why We Go Back to Basics

In today’s world of overcomplicated skincare filled with lab-synthesized actives, preservatives, and marketing gimmicks we intentionally return to what’s real, time-tested, and biologically compatible.

At the heart of our balm is grass-fed tallow, a traditional skincare ingredient once revered but now largely forgotten. Tallow contains a unique balance of fatty acids that closely resemble the natural sebum of human skin, which means it absorbs effortlessly and supports the skin barrier rather than disrupting it.

It’s also packed with fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K critical nutrients that promote healing, support collagen production, reduce inflammation, and nourish skin at a cellular level. These vitamins are more bioavailable in animal fats than in plant oils or synthetic forms, making them more effective.

We make our balms in small batches, using cold-processing methods to preserve the raw vitality of each ingredient. By combining tallow with raw honey, known for its antimicrobial and humectant properties, we stay true to nature’s intelligence no fillers, no synthetics, and absolutely no shortcuts.

What Goes In Matters


We use a short list of potent, skin-compatible ingredients, each chosen for purity, performance, and purpose.

Organic grass-fed Irish suet provides nourishing tallow that mimics your skin’s natural oils. Organic cold-pressed Spanish olive oil and organic cold-pressed jojoba oil offer antioxidant-rich, non-comedogenic hydration. Organic raw honey soothes and heals with natural enzymes. Organic beeswax locks in moisture while letting skin breathe. Finally, we add a select blend of mostly organic essential oils for natural aroma and skin support.

Clean, Conscious, Community‑Minded

We believe skincare should support not just your skin but the planet and the people behind the product. That’s why we partner only with Irish farmers who care deeply for their land and animals, prioritising regenerative practices over industrial shortcuts.

Each balm is handcrafted in Dublin in small batches, using methods that preserve ingredient integrity and reduce waste. From sourcing to shipping, we aim to tread lightly and act with intention.
