Mojave Rain - Clarifying & Sebum Balancing

For the wild and earthy women who thrive, even in the harshest seasons.

Creosote, known as the desert’s healer, survives where others wither, carrying the pungent scent that awakens after a desert rainstorm.

Hand-poured with wildcrafted creosote, regenerative grass-fed and finished beef suet tallow, and golden jojoba, Mojave Rain soothes weather-worn, inflamed, or stressed skin.

Free from essential oils and synthetic fragrance, it's a powerful skin ally and may be used continuously for the entire family to soothe raw, chapped, or weather-worn skin; calm the appearance of blemishes, surface redness, & tight, dry tissue; protect minor skin friction areas; & deeply condition cracked heels, rough elbows, or dry patches.

*Follow your own intuition when using Mojave Rain on your little ones. Due to its deeply restorative properties, creosote bush was used for centuries by the Indigenous Peoples of the Southwest for many skin conditions. However, because there is limited modern research done on its safety for children, use your own discernment.

The One-Balm Skincare Routine

All you need for healthy, radiant skin is a good tallow balm, a soft washcloth, and warm water.

The Daily Routine

Step #1: Cleanse - With clean hands, smooth a small amount of balm over your face and neck. Massage slowly with your hands or a gua sha, releasing tension and encouraging circulation. 

Step #2: Exfoliate Lay a warm, damp washcloth over your skin to open pores and gently exfoliate. Wipe away the balm, carrying away impurities and leaving your face refreshed and radiant.

Step #3: Nourish + Protect   While skin is still slightly damp, apply a light veil of balm to lock in hydration and support your skin’s natural barrier.

We recommend doing this in the morning, and then at night skipping the balm and just gently wiping your face with a warm, damp washcloth or rinsing it with warm water and patting dry.

A Note on Application
If your skin feels greasy after applying, it likely means you’ve used too much. Remember, a little goes a long way. Allow your skin to absorb what it needs, then gently blot away any excess with a clean, dry washcloth.


The Weekly Routine - for deep renewal

Step #1: Cleanse – With clean hands, smooth a generous layer of balm over your face and neck. Massage slowly with your hands or a gua sha, releasing tension and inviting circulation. 

Step #2: Renewal Mask – Leave the balm on as you slip into a warm bath or shower. The steam softens your skin and opens your pores, allowing the balm’s herbs and ancestral fats to sink deeply into the layers beneath. This helps rebuild your barrier, ease inflammation, and deliver deep nourishment.

Step #3: Exfoliate – After your soak, press a warm, damp washcloth over your skin to gently wipe away the balm, carrying away impurities and leaving your face refreshed and radiant.

Step #4: Nourish + Protect – While your skin is still dewy, smooth on a light veil of balm to lock in hydration and protect your skin's natural barrier.

Ingredients & Benefits

Regenerative Grass-Fed & Finished Beef Suet Tallow (Organic & dry-rendered)

Rich in essential fatty acids and vitamins A, D, E, and K, tallow mirrors the skin’s natural oils, allowing it to absorb deeply and effortlessly. It strengthens the skin barrier, locks in moisture, and nourishes without clogging pores.

Cold-Pressed Golden Jojoba Oil Simmondsia chinensis (Organic)

This lightweight oil mimics the skin’s sebum, offering balanced hydration that never feels heavy. High in vitamin E, B-complex, zinc, and copper, jojoba helps condition the skin surface, support natural collagen appearance, and shield the skin from environmental stressors.

Wildcrafted Creosote Larrea tridentata

Revered in desert herbal traditions, creosote is a resilient plant long known as the desert’s pharmacy. Rich in natural compounds that bring harmony and balance to the skin:

  • NDGA (Nordihydroguaiaretic Acid): A rare, potent antioxidant that defends against environmental stressors, supporting a healthy, vibrant complexion.
  • Flavonoids: Provide gentle, plant-powered properties to deeply ease surface irritation and encourage visible skin barrier repair.
  • Lignans: Offer natural clarifying benefits, strengthening the skin’s surface defenses and supporting a calm, resilient appearance.
  • Saponins: Offer mild conditioning properties that refresh the skin without stripping its natural moisture balance.

Purified Artisanal Beeswax Cera alba (Pure Apiary Source)

A natural, skin-loving humectant that locks in moisture while creating a breathable, protective shield to buffer the skin from environmental stressors.

The Quality Difference:

Unlike mass-market cosmetic waxes that are chemically stripped with toxic bleach or secretly diluted with petroleum-based paraffin, our premium beeswax is sourced cleanly from independent North American apiaries. It is naturally pressure-filtered and purified using traditional heat and cloth methods to ensure a pristine, clean finish. Entirely free of added dyes, synthetic solvents, and artificial fragrances, this pure wax retains its subtle, organic hive scent while delivering a velvety texture that seals in moisture without ever clogging your pores.

Uses & Skin Types

🌿 Especially Supportive For:

  • Blemish-prone, unbalanced, or weather-worn skin texture Complexions heavily exposed to harsh environments (sun, wind, urban pollutants)
  • Skin surfaces needing intensive comfort, calming conditioning, and deep surface renewal 

Brings deep, soothing comfort to visually stressed, over-exposed, or depleted skin while helping rebuild surface strength and barrier resilience over time. Leaves the complexion feeling steady, grounded, and beautifully revived.

Scent

The scent of Mojave Rain captures the pungent essence of a desert storm, earthy and resinous.

Texture

A rich, creamy balm that softens at your touch, Mojave Rain melts effortlessly into the skin. It leaves behind a protective, breathable layer and is deeply moisturizing without a greasy feel, like the quiet nourishment of rain soaking into desert earth.

Directions

Directions:

Begin by taking a small amount of balm with clean, dry fingers. Warm it between your hands if needed, then smooth onto clean, slightly damp skin (face or body). A little goes a long way.

For sensitive skin, start gently: perform a patch test first, and during your initial weeks of use, apply only a couple of times per week. Gradually increase as your skin adjusts.

Tallow balm is waterless skincare, highly concentrated, and designed to seal in moisture, rather than provide it. For best results, apply to skin that is dampened with a refreshing botanical mist or a warm washcloth. This allows the balm to absorb more deeply, leaving your skin soft, glowing, and beautifully restored.

Please note: When transitioning to tallow-based care, your skin may experience a natural adjustment period that can last a few weeks. Give the balm at least 90 days before evaluating results. Above all, trust your intuition and adjust usage in a way that feels right for your skin.

A Note on Application:

If your skin feels greasy after applying, it likely means you’ve used too much. Remember, a little goes a long way. Allow your skin to absorb what it needs, then gently blot away any excess with a clean, dry washcloth.

⚠️ Use with caution during pregnancy & breastfeeding.

Shelf-Life

For best results, use within 18–24 months. If preferred, you may store your balm in the refrigerator to extend its life for up to three years.

To keep your balm fresh, always use clean, dry hands or a dedicated spoon to scoop from the jar, and avoid introducing water or moisture. This simple care ensures your balm remains pure and potent.

Variables

Because each batch of Mojave Rain is crafted with earth-sourced ingredients, you may notice slight variations in texture, color, or scent.

Your balm may also arrive with either a gold or black metal lid, depending on availability. Small-batch sourcing brings these subtle differences, but the integrity and quality of what’s inside remain unchanged.

The Only Balm Your Family Needs

From dry, flaky skin and teen blemishes, to bug bite irritation, raw scrapes, sun-exposed redness, and deep barrier restoration, these versatile balms are thoughtfully crafted to care for the whole family.

"This is a unique scent and I love it! The deeply restorative properties are so good. I’ve been using this as a facial moisturizer and on my feet, and my skin is so happy, especially as the weather has been changing."

  • Beyond Grass-Fed

    We source beef tallow from regenerative farms in the US, where cattle roam on unsprayed pastures. Free from pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, hormones, and antibiotics, this suet is meticulously dry-rendered. The result is a nutrient-rich, shelf-stable fat.

  • No Essential Ois

    Instead of essential oils, we use whole-plant infusions. Essential oils, though often seen as safe, are highly concentrated volatile organic compounds and can be too harsh for sensitive skin. Choosing whole plant extracts creates safer and more balanced skincare.

  • Traditional Fats Only

    Our balms are made with animal and plant fats like tallow, emu, jojoba, and squalane, chosen for stability and skin compatibility. We don't use rancid seed oils; they oxidize, damage the barrier, and lack the deep nourishment traditional fats provide.

  • Hormone-Safe Formulas

    Our balms are free from parabens, phthalates, and synthetic fragrances. These are known to disrupt the endocrine system, mimicking estrogen or interfering with natural hormone balance. Every ingredient is chosen to support your body’s natural rhythms.
