What is tallow & why should I use it?

Tallow is rendered fat from animals.  Ours comes from grass-fed cattle.  Tallow is rich in vitamins A, D, E, K, & B12 along with fatty acids.  It is deeply nourishing, healing and gentle on our skin as it's fatty acid profile is remarkably similar to ours.

Where does your tallow come from?

Our tallow is locally sourced from grass-fed cattle.  We use only suet (fat from around the kidney area) and never trim fat, ensuring our products maintain the highest nutrient profile possible, which is rendered and purified ourselves in our very own kitchen.

Are your products baby & pregnancy safe?

Absolutely!  Because we use only the cleanest, purest ingredients and never use essential oils, fillers, preservatives or anything unnatural, our products are all safe, gentle and nourishing for our sweetest little bundles and blessed mamas.

What do you mean when you say "subtle, earthy scent"?

Because we don't use essential oils to add scents to our tallow, any scent that a product has is from infusing it with organic herbs and botanicals. With that said, things like dried chamomile and calendula flowers, along with marshmallow root naturally have an earthy scent and so when products are infused with them they take on a very subtle, earthy scent.  Most people say they don't smell anything, but some who are very scent-sensitive can smell the natural scent added through these items.   

Natural Texture & Temperature Care

Because our tallow is 100% natural and free from synthetic stabilizers, chemical emulsifiers, or artificial hardeners, it responds directly to the environment just like your skin does.

• In the Heat: It may soften, melt, or become slightly grainy if exposed to warm temperatures, and then form hard, little balls upon cooling again.
• In the Cold: It will firm up and become more solid in cooler rooms.

How to reset it: If your tallow melts during shipping or in a warm environment, simply give it a quick stir and pop it in the fridge for 5-10 minutes to restore its creamy consistency. If it feels too firm, scoop a pea-sized amount and warm it between your palms—it will melt instantly into your skin. Texture shifts are completely normal and never alter the quality or nourishing benefits of the product.

If Your Tallow Gets Wet

If your tallow gets moisture in it, simply leave the lid off for a day or two to ensure the moisture completely evaporates from the tallow before putting the lid back on.
