The Details
Tallow is high in fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, which are essential for skin repair and regeneration. These nutrients can help to improve skin elasticity, tone, and healing from dryness, irritation, and inflammation.
Our tallow is completely free of synthetic fragrances, preservatives, and emulsifiers, which are known to cause irritation and hormone disruption.
Beef tallow has a fatty acid profile similar to human sebum, which makes it easily absorbed and less likely to cause irritation. It contains oleic acid, palmitic acid, and stearic acid, all of which help maintain the skin barrier and support hydration.
The Details
The fatty acids in tallow (oleic and palmitic acids) are known for their moisturizing and nourishing properties. These fatty acids hydrate the skin, lock in moisture, and support the skin's natural barrier.
These fat-soluble vitamins play an important role in skin health. Vitamin A is linked to cell regeneration/repair, Vitamin D supports barrier function, Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps protect skin from damage, and Vitamin K can help reduce inflammation.
Historically, animal fats like tallow were used in skincare for centuries across various cultures. Using tallow from grass-fed cows can be a sustainable by-product of the meat industry, reducing waste. It supports full-animal use, which aligns with ancestral or holistic living practices.
