Why Tallow?

Did you know that tallow contains many of the same nutrients and is almost identical in structure to our skin? For real!

So what does that mean? Because tallow has almost the exact same lipid profile, vitamins and minerals, and fatty acids that we do, mimicking the natural sebum of our skin, this boidentical fat actually absorbs into our skin allowing us to capitalize on all its health benefits instead of sitting on top of our skin like many other “moisturizers” do.
A Closer Look:
Tallow is rich in vitamins A, D, E, K and B12
Vitamin A is essential for maintaining a healthy skin barrier as well as skin regeneration. It’s a natural retinol!
Vitamin D helps to heal wounds, fights against signs of aging and has been linked to cancer prevention.
Vitamin E helps prevent and reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots through reversing damage caused by free radicals.
Vitamin K is high in antioxidants which heal damaged skin while increasing circulation leading to reduced inflammation.
Vitamin B12 helps to produce red blood cells while promoting overall healthy cell growth which aids in skin regeneration and reduces signs of aging. This super vitamin also helps to produce collagen, maintains the skin's moisture balance, reduces inflammation, fights acne and has been used to treat skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema.
Bioidentical:
Oleic and steric acid found in tallow are similar to the natural oils in human skin. This allows for easy absorption, resulting in maximum hydration, enhanced elasticity, and will not clog pores!

Who is Tallow For?
Anyone and everyone. Really! While tallow is great for targeting aging skin, dry or sensitive skin and acne prone skin… it really is amazing for everyone. Due to its multiple health benefits and because of its incredible ability to absorb so well into our skin, it’s kind of like taking a multivitamin every time we apply this super fat!
Have you tried tallow before? Do you love it, why? If you haven't tried it, let's chat... you're in for a treat!
