Compare the Tush Balm™ Formulas: Finding the Right One for You
Tush Balm™ started with a simple idea: create a thoughtfully formulated balm that could be used beyond just one part of the body.
Face. Body. Tush.
But not every person—or every stage of life—needs exactly the same formula. That’s why the Alive & Unbroken Tush Balm line includes several options built around different ingredient profiles and levels of complexity.
While the final ingredient details may vary by formula, each Tush Balm is rooted in the same philosophy:
Simple ingredients. Intentional formulation. Small-batch care.
Here’s a closer look at the three core formulas.
Gentle
Simple support for sensitive routines
Gentle is the most streamlined formula in the Tush Balm family.
It was created for those looking for a simpler ingredient profile, including families who may prefer a more minimal approach to everyday skincare.
Rather than packing the formula with everything possible, Gentle focuses on keeping things uncomplicated.
Think:
- simpler ingredient profile
- everyday skin care
- sensitive-skin-minded formulation
- family-friendly versatility
- face, body and tush use
For customers who believe less can sometimes be more, Gentle is a natural place to start.
Best suited for
Gentle may appeal to customers looking for the most straightforward formula in the lineup or those who prefer fewer additional botanical ingredients.
Original
The everyday middle ground
Original sits in the center of the Tush Balm family.
It builds on the foundation of the Gentle formula with a broader collection of intentionally selected ingredients, making it a versatile choice for everyday use.
This is the formula for someone who wants more than the most minimal option but doesn’t necessarily need the most extensive formulation in the lineup.
Think:
- everyday use
- expanded ingredient profile
- nourishing skincare ritual
- face, body and tush versatility
- a balance between simplicity and complexity
For many customers, Original represents the everyday Tush Balm experience.
Best suited for
Original may be a good fit for households looking for one versatile balm that bridges the space between the Gentle and Alive formulas.
Alive
Our most comprehensive Tush Balm formula
Alive takes the philosophy behind Tush Balm the furthest.
It combines grass-fed tallow with a more extensive collection of intentionally selected ingredients, including ingredients associated with the Alive & Unbroken approach to live-culture and ancestral-inspired formulation.
It is the most complex formula of the three.
Think:
- most comprehensive ingredient profile
- intentionally layered formulation
- live-culture ingredients
- expanded botanical ingredients
- face, body and tush use
Alive is designed for customers who want to experience the fullest expression of the Tush Balm concept.
Best suited for
Alive may appeal to customers looking for the most ingredient-rich option within the core Tush Balm lineup.
So Which Formula Should You Choose?
There isn't necessarily a single "best" Tush Balm.
There is simply the formula that makes the most sense for you.
A simple way to think about the collection is:
GENTLE
Minimal. Simple. Family-friendly.
ORIGINAL
Balanced. Versatile. Everyday.
ALIVE
Expanded. Comprehensive. Most advanced.
If you prefer a simpler skincare routine, start with Gentle.
If you're looking for an everyday middle ground, consider Original.
If you want the most extensive formulation in the collection, explore Alive.
One Philosophy. Three Approaches.
Although the formulas differ, the philosophy behind them doesn't.
Carnivore Korner created Tush Balm around a belief that skincare doesn't need to feel disconnected from its ingredients.
We believe in knowing what you're putting on your body, respecting traditional ingredients, and combining those ideas with thoughtful modern formulation.
That's what connects every jar.
RAW. ALIVE. UNBROKEN.
