Go against the grain
Before skincare became an industry, people relied on simple and natural remedies to nourish their skin.
We've decided to go against the grain and wind back the clock to before skincare products were pumped with additives, hormone disrupters and synthetic chemicals.
We believe in products that are 100% natural, with ingredients you can pronounce .
Breaking the status quo never felt so good!
Good for your skin
Beef tallow is a potent source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that promote skin health. It contains essential nutrients such as vitamin E, A, & K, which nourish and rejuvenate skin. The anti-inflammatory properties of beef tallow can soothe irritated skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis.
Good for the mind
Skincare isn't just a routine - it's a ritual originating from ancient roots. As creatures of habit, we find comfort and solace in these moments of self-care. With beef tallow, we embrace tradition, honouring our skin with the purity it deserves, and reclaiming the essence of true beauty.
Good for the planet
As a natural byproduct of the meat industry, beef tallow is the elixir skincare is missing. By incorporating tallow into skincare products, we can contribute to a more eco-conscious approach to beauty, aligning with the principles of responsible consumption and environmental sustainability.
Ingredients
- 1 cup grass-fed beef tallow -1/4 cup olive oil or other carrier oil (e.g. jojoba, almond) - Essential oils (optional) -Double boiler or heatproof bowl pot - Glass jar for storage - Spatula
Step 1: Render the Tallow
If using raw beef fat, chop it into small pieces. Place the fat into a slow cooker or large pot. Heat on low for several hours until the fat melts and separates from the solids. Strain the liquid fat through a cheesecloth into a clean container and let it cool.
Step 2: Combine Tallow & Oil
Place the tallow in a double boiler or a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water. Once the tallow is melted, add the carrier oil and any essential oils (optional). Stir until fully combined.
Step 3: Pour into Storage Jar
Carefully pour the mixture into a clean glass jar. Allow it to cool and solidify completely. Once solidified, close the lid tightly. Store the tallow balm in a cool, dry place.
