Everything you’ve been wondering — answered.

Frequently Asked Questions

We know tallow isn’t your average skincare ingredient — and that’s kind of the point. Whether you’re wondering what it actually is, if you’ll smell like a Sunday roast (you won’t), or how to store your balm, this page is here to clear things up.

WHAT IS TALLOW?

Tallow is a nutrient-rich, rendered fat derived from the suet (kidney fat) of cows. It has been used for centuries in skincare, cooking, and even candle-making due to its nourishing and protective properties. Unlike processed oils and synthetic moisturizers, tallow closely mimics the natural oils found in human skin, making it highly absorbable and deeply hydrating.

DO THESE PRODUCTS CONTAIN ADDITIVES OR PRESERVATIVES?

No, our tallow products are completely free of preservatives, synthetic additives, and fillers. We believe in keeping skincare as pure as possible, using only nutrient-rich, natural ingredients that truly benefit the skin.

IS TALLOW SUSTAINABLE?

Absolutely! Tallow is a byproduct of ethical, grass-fed farming, meaning we’re utilizing an ingredient that would otherwise go to waste. Unlike synthetic skincare ingredients that require heavy processing, tallow is a natural, biodegradable, and eco-friendly choice that supports regenerative farming and sustainability.

HOW SHOULD I STORE MY PRODUCT?

Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. While our products remain stable at room temperature, they may soften in warmer conditions. If needed, you can refrigerate to restore firmness, but this won’t affect the quality or benefits.

WILL I SMELL LIKE BEEF?

Our tallow is carefully rendered to remove any strong odor. The result is a neutral, mild scent that fades quickly after application. Some may notice a faint, natural aroma, but it is far from overpowering and blends seamlessly with any infused oils or essential oils we use.
