What is tallow? 

What is tallow and what benefits does it have?

Tallow balm is a natural skincare superfood crafted from rendered fat, sourced exclusively from grass-fed cows for exceptional quality. Tallow has been used for thousands of years to help nourish and repair the skin, providing deep hydration and promoting healthy skin cell regeneration. Rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, tallow mimics the natural oils of our skin, making it an excellent moisturizer that supports skin elasticity, reduces inflammation, and heals dry or irritated skin. Its antimicrobial properties also make it beneficial for combating acne and other skin conditions, leaving the skin soft, supple, and rejuvenated.

What makes tallow balm better than other skin care alternatives?

Tallow balm stands out among other skincare alternatives due to its unique and natural properties. Rich in fatty acids that closely resemble the oils found in human skin, tallow balm absorbs deeply, replenishing and supporting the skin's natural barrier without clogging pores. Unlike many chemical-laden skincare products, tallow balm is free from synthetic fragrances and preservatives, making it a safer choice for sensitive skin. Sourced from grass-fed cows, it is an ethical and sustainable option, offering a more environmentally conscious and nutrient-rich skincare solution. With a long history of safe use, tallow balm is a versatile and effective choice for all skin types, providing deep hydration and nourishment without the heaviness of synthetic alternatives.

What is the shelf life?

Our tallow products are most effective when used within 24 months of opening. Thanks to the natural preserving qualities of essential oils in many of our blends, the balm often stays fresh well beyond this date.

What is the best way to store tallow?

Since we avoid toxic preservatives and harsh chemicals, we recommend keeping the jar tightly sealed and stored away from heat. For extended storage, refrigerate unopened jars, where they can remain fresh for years.
