“I’ve tried every brightening cream out there, but they either sting or make me peel. Radiance Balm gave me the glow I wanted without irritation. My skin tone looks more even and feels firmer, but it still feels like I’m wearing nothing. It’s the first time my sensitive skin has behaved with an ‘active’ product.”  Emily R., Toronto

Why your skin will love it

Collagen-supporting care — Bakuchiol helps promote a collagen-rich look.

 

Firming support — Helps skin look smoother and more lifted.

 

Brightening clarity — Improves the look of dullness and uneven tone.

 

Calming comfort — Blue tansy helps visibly soothe redness.

 

Barrier & hydration — Skin-identical lipids lock in lasting moisture.

 

Velvety, never greasy — Melts in clean; works under makeup.

 

Why it works

Skin-identical lipids from grass-fed tallow reinforce the barrier and seal in moisture. 

 

Bakuchiol, a plant-derived retinol alternative, supports a collagen-rich look and firmer-, smoother-looking skin, helping improve the appearance of tone and texture—without typical retinol irritation. 

 

Licorice extract targets the look of uneven tone.

 

Geen tea oil delivers antioxidant comfort.

 

Blue tansy (rich in azulene) adds a calming, redness-reducing botanical lift. 

 

Jojoba balances the feel of skin.

 

Together they deliver radiant, refined-looking skin with a silky, never-waxy feel.

Why we made it

Because we love everything tallow does—but wanted visible tone, smoothness, and collagen-supporting care too. 

Radiance pairs our skin-identical lipid base with bakuchiol for retinol-like results, gently, and blue tansy for a confident botanical profile. 

 

The one that's a joy to come back to.
 

Power + pleasure, zero compromise.

How to Use: Turn Care into Ritual 

Warm a pea-size between fingertips until it melts.

Gently massage into damp skin. Use on face, neck, and anywhere that wants glow. 

Use AM/PM. Let set 3-5 minutes before SPF or makeup.

Turns daily care into a calming ritual. Layers smoothly over toners/serums; adjust amount to climate and skin type.

For extra comfort, apply a richer layer overnight as your last step.

Scent Notes

Present, botanical, alluring—this scent opens in a cool wash of blue tansy, a floral touched with gentle fruit sweetness. Sunlit bergamot and fresh orange rise like a bright veil, then a creamy ylang-ylang heart blooms, languid and luminous. As it settles, whispers of frankincense and cardamom leave a resin-spice warmth on the skin—modern, tranquil, quietly magnetic. Crafted only from botanicals. No synthetic fragrance.

Skin Feel

A silky touch that melts on contact and is absorbed as if it had always belonged there. It leaves skin velvety and calm, never greasy — just a breathable layer of comfort and resilience that stays with you all the day.

Key Ingredients

Bakuchiol

Retinol-alternative for a smoother, firmer-looking complexion.

 

What it is: 

• A meroterpene isolated from Psoralea corylifolia (babchi). 

 

What it does: 

• Supports a collagen rich look for firmer-, smoother looking skin; helps soften the look of fine lines and improve visible tone/texture.

 

Why we chose it: 

• Delivers retinol like results without typical irritation or photosensitivity; daytime friendly and pairs well with lipids.

 

Good to know: 

• Photo stable, gentle enough for daily AM/PM use; plays nicely with niacinamide, vitamin C, and acids when layered.

 

Green Tea Oil

Lightweight antioxidant nourishment.

 

What it is: 

• Cold pressed Camellia sinensis seed oil (green tea). Naturally rich in oleic & linoleic acids, vitamin E, and plant squalene.

 

What it does: 

• Adds antioxidant comfort against environmental stress, supports the skin barrier, and enhances a silky, never greasy finish.

 

Texture role: 

• Fast absorbing slip that keeps the balm cushiony without heaviness.

Blue Tansy

Visibly calms redness; lends the serene botanical profile.

 

What it is: 

• Steam distilled Tanacetum annuum flower oil (the Moroccan “blue tansy,” not common tansy). Naturally deep teal from chamazulene/azulene.

 

What it does: 

• Visibly calms redness and signs of irritation; contributes to a serene, balanced look.

 

Scent/feel: 

• Elegant, herbaceous sweet, slightly fruity; defines Radiance’s confident botanical aroma.

What it does:

Reinforces the skin barrier and helps lock in moisture for lasting comfort.

• Leaves skin soft, cushioned, and supple, recognizable lipids have high affinity with skin.

Our Beginning

We drew a hard line. For our family. 

Title

Fat & Bloom was born out of love for our unborn son. When my wife became pregnant, we discovered her trusted natural skincare contained ingredients we didn’t want on our skin or in our bodies. From that moment, compromise was never an option.

What began as a custom solution for my pregnant wife became an uncompromising standard: natural, clean, elevated skincare—without toxins, without compromise.

 

This is Fat & Bloom
 

Uncompromising. Clean. Elevated.

Your Questions, Answered

Is it safe for sensitive skin, pregnancy, or kids?

Radiance is gentle, but it does contain essential oils and bakuchiol. If you’re sensitive, patch test first and start with a rice-grain amount at night. For young children, we recommend our Daily Essential Balm (fragrance-free) instead. If pregnant or nursing, please check with your healthcare professional.

Does it smell like tallow?

No. Our 5x purified, grass-fed tallow has a clean, neutral profile.

What does it smell like? 

Present, botanical, alluring—this scent opens in a cool wash of blue tansy, a floral touched with gentle fruit sweetness. Bergamot and fresh orange rise like a bright veil, then a creamy ylang-ylang heart blooms. As it settles, whispers of frankincense and cardamom leave a resin-spice warmth on the skin—modern, tranquil, quietly magnetic.

Will it make my skin greasy?

Not at all. The balm melts into skin and absorbs quickly, leaving it soft, velvety, and calm — never heavy or greasy. A little goes a long way. 

Will it clog my pores?

No. It sets to a light, breathable, non-greasy barrier. A little goes a long way, if it feels heavy, apply a smaller amount.

Can I use it under makeup?

Yes. It layers beautifully as a primer, creating a smooth, hydrated base that helps makeup glide and stay fresh throughout the day.

What skin concerns does it help with?

Radiance Balm helps with dullness and uneven tone, softens the look of fine lines and texture, visibly calms redness, supports firmer-looking skin, and locks in moisture for a stronger-feeling barrier.

Best for: normal, dry, or combo skin; anyone seeking glow + refinement.

Where is it made?

Every balm is crafted in small batches in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, blending high-quality botanicals from around the world with grass-fed tallow sourced from local trusted farms practicing sustainable agriculture.
