Grass-fed tallow, the way nature intended

Our whipped tallow balm is one of the most skin-compatible moisturizers on earth — rich in fat-soluble vitamins and the same fatty acids your skin already makes. We render it slow, whip it light, and offer it four ways.

why tallow?

The cleanest moisturizer you
can put on your skin

Tallow's fatty acid profile — mainly oleic, palmitic, and stearic acid — mirrors human sebum more closely than any plant-based oil. That's why it absorbs quickly, doesn't clog pores, and leaves your skin feeling like skin, not a layer of cream.

We source exclusively from grass-fed, grass-finished and Wagyu cattle. The difference in vitamin content between grain-fed and grass-fed fat is not subtle — grass-finished tallow has 3–5× more conjugated linoleic acid* and significantly higher levels of fat-soluble vitamins*.

common questions

Everything about tallow

What is whipped tallow balm?

Whipped tallow balm is a skin moisturizer made from rendered beef fat — specifically suet, the dense fat around the kidneys. We whip it until it's light and spreadable. It's rich in fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, and the fatty acid profile closely mirrors human sebum, which makes it unusually well-absorbed.

Is tallow good for your face?

Yes — tallow is one of the oldest face moisturizers in human history. Because its fatty acid profile is so similar to your skin's natural oils, it absorbs without leaving a greasy film. Many people find it helpful for dry patches, eczema-prone skin, and generally sensitive faces. Start with a small amount — a little goes a long way.

What's the difference between tallow and regular lotion?

Most commercial lotions are water-based emulsions that rely on synthetic emulsifiers and preservatives to stay shelf-stable. Tallow balm contains no water — it's pure fat, which means no preservatives are needed and nothing dilutes the active ingredients. The tradeoff is that tallow is richer; you use less of it.

Is your tallow grass-fed?

Yes. We source suet from grass-fed, grass-finished cattle. Grass-fed tallow has a higher concentration of CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) and fat-soluble vitamins than grain-fed, which is why sourcing matters.

How do I use tallow balm?

Warm a small amount between your fingertips until it melts, then press it into clean skin. It works best on slightly damp skin — right after washing your hands or stepping out of the shower. A pea-sized amount covers your whole face; a quarter-sized amount handles both legs.
