What is Beef Tallow?

What is Beef Tallow?

Simply put, beef tallow is rendered down beef fat. Are you thinking wait, what? Just hear me out...

First of all, we source the best possible tallow from 100% Grass fed and grass finished cattle. Each batch of tallow goes through a purification process where it is wet rendered 3 times to remove any impurities and to get rid of the beef smell. This leaves us with a clean white tallow perfect for use in our skincare products. 

Tallow was originally used by our ancestors and has been used on skin and hair for centuries. It contains a very similar fatty acid profile to our own skin and closely mimics our natural skin oils which helps improve skin cell health without clogging pores. Tallow is natures answer to our skincare concerns. 

Tallow is high in vitamins A, D, E, K and is non-comedagenic, antimicrobial, anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory.

 

So what does that mean for your skin?

Vitamin A - Stimulates the production of collagen, elastin and healthy skin cells and strengthens the skin tissue to keep skin firm and smooth while also helping to heal skin problems including acne and aging.

Vitamin D - Promotes skin cell development, repair, metabolism and immune function and protects and rejuvenates skin by destroying free radicals that cause premature aging.

Vitamin E - Acts as an antioxidant to protect skin cells from damage. It helps to maintain moisture in your skin while simultaneously smoothing and protecting.

Vitamin K - Maintains your skins collagen leaving you with more plump, smooth and youthful skin. It will speed up recovery for any cracked, injured skin.

 

We love beef tallow for our family and we use it on our kids as well. It is a non-toxic ingredient that nature provides for us to nourish our bodies without harsh chemicals.
