Four products, two formats, several sizes, and a line that is blue for reasons that are not obvious from a thumbnail. If you have landed on the Evil Goods range on Amazon and cannot tell which one you are supposed to start with, this page exists to answer that in about two minutes.
No hedging and no "it depends on your journey". Find the line below that sounds like you, and that is your answer.
The short version
- Dry skin, whole body, want one thing that does everything → the 4 oz whipped tallow jar. Buy on Amazon — Prime delivery
- Face only, or trying tallow for the first time → the 2 oz tallow balm. Buy on Amazon — Prime delivery
- Already have a routine, want to add one active step → the Blue Honey copper peptide serum. Buy on Amazon — Prime delivery
- Need something to go over a serum, prefer fragrance-free → the Blue Honey barrier cream. Buy on Amazon — Prime delivery
Everything below is the reasoning, for anyone who wants it.
The two families, and why they are separate
The tallow balms are waterless. Grass-fed, grass-finished beef tallow, rendered slowly, whipped with Manuka honey, olive oil, marigold extract and vitamin E. No water means no emulsifiers and no preservative system, because there is nothing in a pure fat for anything to grow in. They are rich, they sit on the surface, and they are the heavier of the two families by a wide margin.
The Blue Honey line is water-based and built around copper peptides. It is blue because GHK-Cu is naturally blue in solution, not because anything was dyed. These are light layers that go on first and need something over the top.
They are separate lines on purpose. Copper peptides need a light carrier to spread evenly; tallow is the opposite of a light carrier. Forcing them into one jar would weaken both. The full reasoning is in why copper peptides are a separate line.
4 oz or 2 oz tallow?
This is a question about where you use it, not about how committed you are.
The 4 oz jar is for people using it below the neck: legs and arms after a shower, hands through winter, elbows, heels. At that rate it disappears, and it works out cheaper per ounce. It comes in Unscented and four scents.
The 2 oz jar is a face jar and a bag jar. Two ounces used a pea at a time on a face lasts a long while, it travels, and at that price having two scents is realistic. It is also the sensible first purchase if you have never put an animal-fat balm on your face and want to find out how you get on with it.

Both are the same formula family. Neither is a sample of the other. If you are still undecided, beef tallow by skin type and the comedogenic question are the two most useful things to read before spending anything — rich occlusives genuinely do not suit everybody, and we would rather you knew that first.
Serum or cream, if you are looking at the blue ones?
They are not alternatives. They are two steps in the same routine, and the order is fixed.
The serum goes first, on damp skin, three or four drops. One fluid ounce. GHK-Cu copper peptides, Manuka honey, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and vitamin E. It is light and it absorbs fast, which is exactly why it needs something on top of it. Buy the serum on Amazon — Prime delivery
The cream goes second. Two ounces, fragrance-free, carrying Copper Tripeptide-1, Manuka honey, niacinamide, olive squalane and hydrogenated lecithin. It seals the serum in and does the work a last step is supposed to do. Buy the cream on Amazon — Prime delivery
If you can only buy one to begin with, buy the serum and put a tallow balm over it — you probably already own something that will do the sealing. If you want the line as designed, take both. The detail is in serum vs. cream and building a copper peptide routine.

Three ways people combine them
- The one-jar routine. A tallow balm on damp skin, morning and night, and nothing else. Unglamorous and completely sufficient for a lot of people. More on that here.
- The two-step. Blue Honey serum, thirty seconds, then the barrier cream. Light enough for the morning and for under makeup.
- The seasonal swap. Serum and cream through spring and summer, serum and a tallow balm through the cold months. The one most of our repeat customers land on eventually.
What none of them do
These are cosmetics. They moisturize, they condition, and they feel good on skin. That is the whole of what they are for. None of them is a substitute for professional care, and if something about your skin concerns you the right move is a dermatologist rather than a different jar. We would rather say that than have you buy the wrong thing for the wrong reason.
Buying on Amazon vs. buying from us
Amazon is faster if you have Prime, and returns run through Amazon's own process, which plenty of people prefer. Every product above links straight to its Amazon page, and the full range sits on the Evil Goods Amazon storefront.
evilgoods.com carries every scent, the bundles, and the subscription option if you would rather it arrived on its own schedule. Start here: the 4 oz whipped tallow jar, the 2 oz balm, the Blue Honey serum and the Blue Honey cream.
