The Problem With Most Sunscreens
Most conventional sunscreens are packed with synthetic chemicals like oxybenzone, avobenzone, and octocrylene, some of which have been linked to hormone disruption, skin irritation, and even cancer. And that got us thinking... Is this really the best we can do?

A Better Way
Little Cow started with one simple goal: to create the healthiest, safest sun balm.
No long ingredient list. No fillers. No synthetics, no industrial oils.
Just 100% Australian grass-fed tallow and non-nano zinc oxide, blended into a creamy, versatile balm. We make it in small batches, right here in Australia, using local ingredients and glass packaging to reduce plastic waste.

What's In It?
Made with just two ingredients, 100% grass-fed tallow and non-nano zinc oxide, our balm is free from the synthetic additives, chemical filters, and hormone-disrupting ingredients found in many conventional skincare products.
Here's why we love tallow and zinc oxide.

100% Aussie Grass-Fed Beef Tallow
All our tallow is sourced directly from Australian cattle farmers. Plus, it is all 100% pasture-raised & grass-fed. Grass-fed beef tallow is rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, and naturally supports the skin barrier. Itβs deeply nourishing and remarkably similar to the oils our skin produces, making it the perfect base for our sun balm.

Non-Nano Zinc Oxide
Non-nano zinc oxide is a gentle mineral used in skincare for generations. Unlike chemical filters, it doesnβt get absorbed into the bloodstream, it simply sits on the skin and does its job. Itβs trusted by parents and skincare experts alike for good reason.

Organic Australian Coconut Oil
Organic Australian coconut oil is a natural skin soother loved for its gentle scent and nourishing feel. It helps soften the balmβs texture, making it easier to apply and absorb. Rich in antioxidants and healthy fats, it supports the skinβs barrier while adding a natural summery scent.

FAQ'S
Is this sun balm safe for babies and young children?
Yes. Our formula uses only two natural ingredients: grass-fed beef tallow and non-nano zinc oxide. Itβs free from synthetic chemicals, preservatives, and fragrances, making it safe and gentle for delicate baby skin.
Does it leave a white cast?
Because we use non-nano zinc oxide, there may be a slight white tint when first applied, but it absorbs quickly when rubbed in gently.
How often should I reapply it?
We recommend reapplying at least every 2 hours, especially after swimming, sweating, or towel drying, just as you would with any mineral-based sunscreen.
Can I use this on my face?
Yes! Itβs safe and nourishing for use on both the face and body. Many customers love it as a daily balm for cheeks, nose, and shoulders.
Is it greasy or sticky?
Not at all. Our beef tallow is whipped to a creamy, spreadable consistency and absorbs beautifully without feeling greasy. No sticky, oily residue. Just soft, protected skin.
Is it reef safe?
Yes. We donβt use any synthetic UV filters, parabens, or chemical emulsifiers, so itβs safe for you and for marine life.
How long does a jar last?
A little goes a long way. A 100g jar typically lasts 1β2 months with regular daily use.
Does it have a smell?
It has a very mild natural scent from the tallow, which many describe as clean and neutral, or a bit like fresh thickened cream. We donβt add essential oils or fragrances.
Can I use this if my child has eczema or sensitive skin?
Our balm is made with only two gentle ingredients and is often well-tolerated by sensitive skin types. However, we always recommend patch testing first and checking with your healthcare provider if you have concerns.
