Frequently Asked Questions about our TALLOW

Tallow is a nutrient-rich, natural fat rendered from the suet (the fat surrounding the organs) of cows. It's an incredibly versatile ingredient that has been used for centuries.

For generations, our ancestors relied on tallow as a staple for skin care due to its nourishing and protective properties. However, over time, animal-based products were replaced with synthetic alternatives and lab made skincare including petroleum-based ingredients, processed vegetable oils, chemically altered plant extracts, and synthetic vitamins.

We proudly source our tallow from a small, family-owned farm in the Central West, where the cows are 100% grass-fed and finished, raised without antibiotics and chemical free approach to farming.

Every batch of tallow is carefully rendered by hand using our unique process. We use the lowest possible heat and avoid the "wet" method (which uses water), ensuring the tallow stays pure and free from oxidation or rancidity. This meticulous approach results in a high-quality, nutrient-rich product that you can trust.
