About

Saturated Skincare.

Organic. Natural. Sustainable.

At Lavish Balm, we believe that skincare should be simple, effective, and rooted in nature’s wisdom. Our philosophy is built on the power of saturated fats—the cornerstone of our luxurious, skin-loving formulas.

Why Saturated Fats?

Unlike the unstable, highly processed polyunsaturated oils found in many mainstream products, saturated fats are naturally stable, deeply nourishing, and highly compatible with the skin's own structure. Rich in essential fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K, saturated fats deliver long-lasting hydration while supporting the skin’s natural barrier function.

Historically revered in traditional skincare remedies, saturated fats such as tallow and jojoba oil offer a unique blend of anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and deeply restorative properties. They help lock in moisture without clogging pores, making them ideal for all skin types—including sensitive and eczema-prone skin.

Nature's Balm for Modern Skin

Your skin deserves real nourishment, not synthetic fillers or unstable oils that oxidize and cause irritation. That’s why every Lavish Balm product is crafted with pure, nutrient-dense ingredients—no preservatives, no harsh chemicals, and absolutely no compromise.

We’re here to reconnect skincare with its roots—where traditional wisdom meets modern simplicity, and where lavish doesn’t mean complicated, it means intentional.

Welcome to Lavish Balm. Skincare, the way nature intended.

As well as Tallow, you'll find a variety of wonderful, saturated, low PUFA ingredients in Lavish products, such as Pure Olive Squalane, Organic Australian Golden Jojoba Oil, Cacao Butter and Vitamin E. We also intuitively infuse with quality organic herbs to harness their natural healing qualities.
