If you've ever looked at my pricing and thought,
“Why is this little jar of tallow balm $39?” —
I get it. It’s not the cheapest option out there. And I want to tell you exactly why.
When I created Cowboy & Co., I made a promise to myself—and to you: I will never cut corners. Not to save money. Not to grow faster. Not even when it gets hard.
That means…
+ I only use USDA Organic, grass-fed and finished suet, sourced from small regenerative ranches. One of those ranches recently went out of business. The one I work with now is completely sold out this month and just doubled their prices. That’s how rare true, high-quality suet is.
+ I don’t order ingredients from Amazon.
Instead, I source 99% of my botanicals from Mountain Rose Herbs—an independently owned company committed to sustainability, ethical trade, forest-grown herbs, and organic standards far beyond the industry norm.
+ Every balm, oil, and cream is made by hand in small batches by me. No machines. No outsourcing. No shortcuts.
+ You’ll never find synthetic preservatives, cheap fillers, emulsifiers, or mystery ingredients in my skincare.
+ And a portion of every sale supports horse rescues, because giving back is part of who I am and what this brand stands for.
So… what are you really paying for?
You’re not just paying for a product. You’re supporting:
-
Ethical, small-scale ranching
-
Clean skincare that’s safe for babies, mamas, and those with sensitive skin or migraines
-
Responsible sourcing and earth-honoring practices
-
A woman-owned, handmade business built on integrity
-
Horses in need of a second chance
I know that $39 for a 2 oz balm or $59 for a 4 oz jar might feel like a splurge. But I also know what goes into every single jar—and I can tell you, with confidence: it’s worth it.
Thank you for standing behind this mission. For choosing quality over convenience. For helping me do things the right way—even when it costs more.
