Tallow is a nutrient-rich, rendered form of beef fat that comes from grass-fed cows. It closely mimics the natural oils found in human skin, making it incredibly nourishing, hydrating, and non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores). It’s been used for centuries in skincare and is making a comeback for its purity and effectiveness.

Tallow may sound heavy, but when rendered properly and blended with other skin-loving ingredients, it absorbs beautifully. It’s packed with vitamins A, D, E, and K, and helps restore skin barrier function, soothe irritation, and deeply moisturize without feeling greasy.

Yes! In fact, many people with sensitive, eczema-prone, or acne-prone skin find relief using tallow balm. Because it’s so close to our own skin’s sebum, it helps regulate oil production and calms inflammation naturally.

No! Our tallow is rendered slowly and carefully to remove any strong scent. It’s either completely unscented or lightly scented with essential oils, depending on the product. Most people are pleasantly surprised by how mild and clean it smells.

We source our tallow from local farms that prioritize ethical and regenerative practices. Using tallow is a sustainable choice—it makes use of a whole-animal ingredient that might otherwise go to waste, and doesn’t rely on synthetic chemicals or plastic-heavy skincare.

A little goes a long way! Simply scoop a pea-sized amount, warm it between your fingers, and gently massage it into your face or body. It’s perfect as a daily moisturizer, night balm, or spot treatment for dry patches and irritated skin.

Absolutely. Our unscented version is gentle enough for newborns and pregnant bellies. It’s a clean, toxin-free way to soothe diaper rash, baby eczema, or stretch marks.

While all three are natural moisturizers, tallow is the most bioavailable to human skin, meaning it absorbs and nourishes more effectively. It also has a more complete profile of fat-soluble vitamins, making it uniquely healing.

All skin types! Whether you’re dry, oily, sensitive, aging, or acne-prone, tallow can help balance and repair your skin barrier.

If stored in a cool, dry place, tallow balms can last up to a year or more. There are no artificial preservatives, so keep the lid on tight and use clean hands or a spoon to keep it fresh.

Great question! Because we don’t use synthetic stabilizers, some grittiness can naturally occur as the tallow or oils cool unevenly—especially in temperature swings during shipping or storage. This doesn’t affect the quality or performance of the balm and will melt smoothly into your skin with a little warmth from your hands. If you prefer a smoother texture, you can gently warm the balm, stir it, and let it reset slowly at room temperature.
