Skin & care on the go
A little care in your bag: lip balm and tallow sticks
There is always something in the bag: keys, a receipt, perhaps a snack for later. A small care stick can have its place there too, ready for an ordinary pause between the things you need to do.
Two sticks, two places in the routine
Our tallow lip balm is a portable lip-care stick. The tallow butter stick is a separate skincare product for external use, applied according to its current label. A similar-looking format does not make the two products interchangeable.
Choose the format for where you want to use it, then check the complete ingredient and application guidance. Our lip balm is RM9.90 per stick and the butter stick is RM19.90 per stick. Keep their roles simple, rather than treating one stick as an answer to every skin concern.
Lip care should feel comfortable
For dry lips, the American Academy of Dermatology recommends a non-irritating lip balm and avoiding habits such as licking, biting or picking. Stinging is a reason to stop using a product, rather than a sign that it is working. [1]
Apply our lip balm only as directed by its label and notice how your lips feel. We have not clinically demonstrated that it treats every cause of chapped lips. If dryness, cracking or soreness persists, a dermatologist can help identify what is going on. [1]
Keep sun protection in the picture
A balm’s smooth feel does not establish sun protection. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends a non-irritating lip product with SPF 30 or higher before going outdoors. Our tallow sticks do not have a confirmed SPF rating. [1]
Choose appropriate sun protection for your lips and skin, and follow its directions. Your everyday care stick can belong to the routine without taking on a role it has not been tested for.
A few habits for the bag you actually carry
Close the cap after each use and follow the label’s storage instructions. A bag left in a hot car or on a sunny table is a different environment from a cool shelf at home. Avoid unnecessary heat exposure, and ask us if a change in the product concerns you.
Keep the applicator clean and avoid sharing it. Use clean hands when handling the cap and product. Do not use the skincare butter stick on your lips unless its current instructions specifically allow that use.
Make it an easy habit: a little care after you wash up, before you head out, or when you settle in for the evening. The best routine is one you enjoy and that agrees with your skin.
