All You Need To Know

So... what is beef tallow?

Tallow is a rendered, purified form of beef fat, primarily sourced from the hard suet surrounding the cow’s organs. It is produced by slowly melting it down (rendering) and straining beef fat to remove impurities.

 

It is commonly used in skincare due to its high concentration of skin-compatible fatty acids (stearic & oleic acid) and vitamins A, D, E & K.

 

It is used to deeply hydrate and repair dry or compromised skin barriers.

Is it safe to use while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Yes. Plain, cosmetic-grade tallow is generally considered safe for topical use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.


Tallow is simply rendered animal fat and does not contain hormones, retinoids, or other ingredients commonly advised against during pregnancy.

Will it smell, or break me out?

no, and unlikely; however, everyones skin is different.

 

We infused our tallow for 8 hours with Organic Vanilla Bean to give a soft, light scent without being too overpowering, gently blended with Organic Jojoba, Rosehip Oil and a dash of Rose.

 

Tallow is non-comedogenic and indicates a low chance of clogging your pores. Tallow is highly compatible with human sebum, allowing for deep moisture.

 

As with any skincare product, we recommend patch testing before use, especially if you have sensitive or acne-prone skin.

Can I use this with other skincare products?

Yes. Tallow can be used alongside most skincare products and fits easily into an existing routine.

 

Because tallow is rich and occlusive, it works best as the final step in your routine to help seal in moisture.

What skin types can use this?

Tallow is best suited for dry, sensitive, and normal skin types, but it can be used by most people with the right approach.

 

Skin types that tend to benefit most:

  • Dry or very dry skin: deeply moisturising and helps prevent moisture loss
  • Sensitive or reactive skin: minimal ingredients and barrier-supportive
  • Mature skin: rich fatty acids help soften and nourish
  • Compromised or over-exfoliated skin: supports skin barrier repair

How do I actually use it?

After cleansing, warm a small amount (less than a pea size) between your fingertips, gently massage into your skin using upwards, circular motions.

 

A little goes a long way! Start with less and add more if needed.

 

Use daily for nourished, soft and hydrated skin.

 

For an extra layer, we recommend pairing this with our Hydrating Face Mist.

no fillers. no fragrance.

nothing you need to google.

 

Made the way skincare used to be made. By hand, in small batches.

Will it work for my skin?

Tallow is gentle enough for sensitive, dry, eczema-prone, and mature skin. Many find can calm breakouts too.

 

But real skin repair takes time.

Most of us have spent years layering, stripping and overcomplicating our routines, it won’t transform overnight.

 

Results are quiet at first

a stronger, more resilient barrier over weeks.

 

This is nourishment, not a quick fix.

The kind that works with your skin,
