How to Revive a Melted Balm

How to Revive a Melted Balm

Unfortunately it happens.  With a melting point of 85 degrees, it doesn't take much for your tallow balm to melt.  Learn how to revive or harden a melted tallow balm here:

  • POURED BALM: simply give it a little whirl and put it in the fridge. It won't take long to set up. If you live in a warm climate, we recommend storing your balm in the fridge for best consistency.
  • WHIPPED BALM: a melted whip balm can be disappointing but it's still amazing to use. Just follow these steps:
    1. Warm your balm (jar and all) in a hot-water bath: place it in a pot with about an inch of water and turn on the heat to a simmer. It does not take much heat to melt.
    2. Once melted, you have two options: start using, or, pour out the contents into a bowl and place the bowl in the fridge to cool.  After it's cooled and hardened, with a set of electric beaters, rewhip your balm until desired consistency is reached. Then, scoop your newly whipped balm into back into the jar. You're good to go.
