Baby Bum Butter | Natural Diaper Cream with Tallow & Zinc
Smooth it over the diaper area at each change. The balm goes on smooth and wipes away gently at the next one. It builds a barrier without pulling at raw skin. Reach for it at the first sign of red.
Rendered beef tallow mirrors the natural oils in baby's skin. A generous 30% non-nano zinc oxide helps protect against diaper rash and shields against wetness. Calendula and chamomile soothe red, irritated skin, while lanolin seals in moisture.
There is no water, no fillers, and no fragrance to bother tiny noses. Honest barrier care, the way it used to be made.

HOW TO USE
Protect. Soothe. Reapply.
Scoop & Warm
Using clean fingers, scoop a small amount and warm it between your fingertips until it softens and spreads easily.
Layer On
Smooth a generous, visible layer over clean, dry skin across the diaper area. It's a barrier balm, so a slightly thicker coat is a good thing.
Protect
Reapply at every change, or at the first sign of redness — especially overnight. For external use only.

Why I Started Making Tallow Skincare
Hi, my name is Brian, though around here I don’t mind being called Moose.
I’ve learned most of what I know about skincare from the women in my life, especially my wife and our four daughters. Moose’s Tallow has truly been a family project from the beginning.
I started making tallow skincare after a serious health scare forced me to rethink everything I put in my body. Once I focused on real ingredients, another question came up: if what we eat matters that much… what about what we put on our skin?
With a busy home full of people I love, that question mattered a lot. When my daughters told me they were already using tallow for skincare, I decided to learn how to make it myself.
What started as a small project for my family eventually turned into something much bigger.
Baby Bum Butter FAQ
Everything you need to know about our natural tallow & zinc oxide diaper cream.
Is Baby Bum Butter a natural diaper cream?
Yes. It's a natural diaper cream made with beef tallow, non-nano zinc oxide, and calendula, no water, no fillers, no fragrance, and no synthetic junk.
How does a zinc oxide diaper cream work?
The 30% non-nano zinc oxide forms a breathable barrier that shields delicate skin from wetness and helps prevent and soothe diaper rash, while the tallow base locks in moisture.
Does it help with diaper rash?
Yes. The zinc oxide barrier helps protect against and calm everyday diaper rash, and it's gentle enough to soothe a raw, irritated bottom.
Is it safe for newborns and cloth diapers?
It's made with simple, gentle ingredients suited to delicate newborn skin. As with any new product, spot-test first. For cloth diapers, use a liner, zinc oxide creams can leave residue on cloth.
How is a tallow diaper balm different from regular diaper creams?
Most diaper creams are mostly water and synthetics. Our tallow diaper balm is waterless and built on rendered beef tallow, which closely mirrors baby's own skin oils for richer, longer-lasting protection.
What's in it?
Beef tallow, non-nano zinc oxide, calendula, lanolin, bisabolol, and vitamin E. That's it. No fragrance, dyes, parabens, or fillers.
