Baby Bum Butter Myths

  • Natural diaper balms don’t work as well as drugstore ones.Non-nano zinc oxide is one of the most trusted skin protectants for helping prevent and soothe diaper rash.
  • Tallow is too heavy for baby’s delicate skin.Tallow contains skin-loving fatty acids and vitamins A, D, E, and K that closely resemble the skin’s natural protective oils.
  • Every diaper cream protects the same way.Non-nano zinc oxide, lanolin, and nourishing oils work together to create a protective barrier while supporting healthy, comfortable skin.
  • The best diaper creams have the most ingredients.Simple ingredients like tallow, calendula, lanolin, and zinc oxide provide effective protection without unnecessary fillers.
  • Fragrance makes baby products better.Fragrance-free formulas help reduce the chance of irritation, making them ideal for delicate, sensitive skin.
  • Small-batch skincare can’t compete with the big brands.Moose’s Tallow is a family-run maker in Lebanon, Pennsylvania. We handcraft this diaper cream in small batches, the same as everything we make. Small batches mean tighter quality control, no fillers, and no cutting corners for shelf life. You get skin care made by people who answer you, not a factory line.

THE BEST BABY BALM

THE. BEST. natural baby skin care product.
I have tried a lot of different ones, but so hard to find good quality, truly clean ingredient ones for baby.
My baby has eczema, and this has been a game changer for us, so soothing!

My toddler asks for it!

My toddler always enjoys getting out the baby butter! She asks for it throughout the day, and is very excited when I get out the cute little tin and it's time for "lotion" (her words, not mine). I'm grateful the simple and natural ingredients that help protect her skin in the cold weather!

It is now my daily go to

I’ve tried a lot of so called 'natural' products, but this is the first one that feels truly gentle and clean. The calendula and chamomile seem to help soothe irritation, especially on dry spots and after baths. It melts in easily and leaves her skin soft. It is my daily go to and I’m ordering another one for the diaper bag.

Safe & Effective

I bought this for my nephew who has sensitive skin and although he is not an infant, it’s been very healing for his hands and arms. It’s a relief to know I can confidently buy moose tallow and share it with others, knowing that it’s natural and safe, even for children.

Love the baby butter lotion for my own hands! I’m not even a baby! It is so gentle and hydrating to my cracked skin. It has healed my dry winter hands when nothing else did!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely would recommend.

HOW TO USE

Protect. Soothe. Reapply.

1

Scoop & Warm

Using clean fingers, scoop a small amount and warm it between your fingertips until it softens and spreads easily.

2

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.

3

Protect

Reapply at every change, or at the first sign of redness — especially overnight. For external use only.

Key Ingredients

  • Zinc Oxide Zinc Oxide Zinc OxideA natural mineral that sits on top of the skin and forms a gentle physical barrier, shielding against wind and weather. We use it in our sun balm and diaper cream for that comforting mineral layer. Note: our balms condition and shield, but are not SPF-rated sunscreens.
  • Beef Tallow Beef Tallow Beef TallowRendered from high-quality beef suet, sourced locally when we can. It is naturally rich in skin-friendly fats and the vitamins A, D, E, and K. Because it mirrors your skin's own oils, it absorbs clean and holds moisture without feeling greasy. A simple, time-tested base with nothing synthetic.
  • Calendula-Infused Oil Calendula-Infused Oil Calendula-Infused OilMade by slowly steeping calendula (marigold) flowers in a carrier oil. Calendula is one of the gentlest, most soothing plants in skincare, often chosen for sensitive or easily upset skin. In our balms it helps calm and comfort delicate areas.
  • Lanolin Lanolin LanolinA natural wax gathered from sheep's wool, and one of nature's best moisture sealers. It locks water into the skin and helps block the dryness that cracks hands and lips. A traditional ingredient that simply works, used at just the right amount.
  • Bisabolol Bisabolol BisabololA soothing compound most often drawn from chamomile, prized for calming, balanced skin. It also helps other ingredients perform and improves how a formula feels. We use it in our gentlest products for delicate skin.

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.
