One jar, many tallows — order the formula your skin needs.

Why tallow works on skin

Your skin makes sebum — an oily film that holds moisture in and keeps weather out. Tallow’s makeup sits in the same neighborhood: mostly oleic, stearic, and palmitic fatty acids. That closeness is why it tends to absorb and feel at home rather than sitting on top like a coat of grease.

Rendered from grass-fed suet, it also carries the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K — just part of the fat. It’s a moisturizer, not a medicine: it keeps skin soft and covered.

His and Hers

Both start the same way — grass-fed suet, rendered slow, in small batches. The difference is the finish.

How to use it

  1. Scoop a little — a pea-sized amount covers a whole face.
  2. Warm it between your fingertips until it turns to oil.
  3. Press it into slightly damp skin, right after washing.
  4. Use once or twice a day; more in hard winter, less in humidity.

Common questions

Will tallow clog my pores?
For most people, no. Tallow is rich in oleic acid, and some acne-prone skin doesn’t get along with heavier, oleic-rich fats — so patch-test first. It’s a moisturizer, not an acne treatment.
Does it smell like beef?
Rendered slow and well, it’s nearly scentless. His is barely scented; Hers carries a light touch of honey.
Is it vegan?
No. Tallow is rendered beef fat — that’s the whole idea.

For external use only. Patch-test before use and discontinue if irritation occurs. Handcrafted in small batches — nothing that doesn’t belong on skin. Store in a cool, dry place.
