What You Need to Know Before You Glow

Meet Your Skin’s New Best Friend: Tallow

What’s old is glowingly new again.
Tallow is a time-honored, nutrient-dense fat gently rendered from cows—and it just might be your skin’s secret weapon. Used for centuries and loved for its deep nourishment, this ancestral skincare hero is making a well-deserved comeback.

The Unmatched Benefits of Tallow

    Bioavailable Brilliance

    Tallow mimics your skin’s natural oils, which means it soaks in like a dream—no greasy residue, just deep hydration where it counts.

  • Open jar of white tallow surrounded by various fresh flowers and botanical ingredients, including purple, yellow, and white blossoms, on a white surface.

    Nutrient-Rich Goodness

    Loaded with skin-loving vitamins A, D, E & K to help improve elasticity, calm irritation, and support repair. It’s like a multivitamin for your skin!

  • Display of skincare tallow products on a wooden table with handwritten labels indicating 'Locally Made'.

    Clean . Pure . Simple

    When properly rendered, tallow is shelf-stable, free from synthetic preservatives, and doesn’t need a long ingredients list to be effective. Take a peek at the before and afters to see for yourself!

How to Use Your Tallow Lotion

A little goes a long way—promise.

  • Apply right after showering or washing to lock in moisture.

  • Your body heat softens the balm, making it easy to spread.

  • Great for face, lips, hands, elbows, or anywhere craving deep moisture.

  • Use it as an overnight mask, lip balm, or a calming balm for minor irritations.

Keep These Tips in Mind

Storage Tips

  • Best kept at room temp: 65–75°F (18–24°C)

  • Warm weather? Pop it in the fridge.

  • Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources.

  • If it melts, let it cool and re-whip—it’s still as nourishing as ever.

No, it’s not vegan—but it is sustainable, zero-waste, and ethically sourced.
It probably won’t clog pores—but oily or acne-prone skin types should patch test first.

What Tallow Won’t Do

Simple. Powerful. Timeless.

Tallow lotion works with your skin—not against it. With daily use, expect smoother, softer, more resilient skin... the way nature intended.
