Beef tallow is a traditional skincare ingredient made by gently rendering and purifying fat from grass-fed cattle. Rich in naturally occurring vitamins A, D, E and K, it closely resembles the oils found in healthy human skin, making it an excellent moisturizer that helps support the skin's natural barrier.
-
Not at all. Our tallow is carefully rendered and purified to remove any natural beef scent. Depending on the product, you'll either notice a light aroma from pure essential oils or a clean, natural scent that fades shortly after application.
-
Yes. We use thoughtfully selected natural ingredients whenever possible, including grass-fed beef tallow, plant oils, butters, clays, botanicals, beeswax, sea salt, and essential oils. Every product is handcrafted in small batches with quality and simplicity in mind.

Many customers with dry or sensitive skin enjoy our products. We also offer unscented and lightly scented options that are especially gentle. Because every person's skin is unique, we recommend performing a patch test before first use and consulting your healthcare provider if you have severe skin conditions or allergies.

Sea salt creates a firmer, longer-lasting bar while producing a rich, creamy lather. It also provides gentle exfoliation and leaves skin feeling clean, smooth, and refreshed. Our sea salt soaps are among our longest-lasting bars.
