What if the most nourishing thing you could put on your skin… wasn’t new?
What if it came not from a lab or a luxury spa, but from a long-forgotten place — a place your great-grandmother would’ve known by heart?
We’ve been sold a million lotions, potions, and miracle serums. Promises in plastic. Shelf-stable dreams made by people who’ve never met your skin, your seasons, your story.
More intimate. More alive.
What if it could be food for your skin?
Tallow is rendered fat, traditionally from grass-fed cows or sheep. It's rich in fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E & K) and closely resembles the natural oils our own skin produces — which means it's deeply compatible with our biology.
This isn’t some trendy TikTok discovery.
Our ancestors knew that skin, like soil, thrives on nourishment — not noise.
Here’s what makes grass-fed tallow a quiet powerhouse:
Bioavailability – Tallow shares a similar structure to our own sebum, so it sinks in effortlessly, restoring balance without clogging pores.
Rich in nutrients – Naturally packed with Vitamins A, D, E & K — the kind your skin can actually use.
Barrier support – It helps repair and strengthen the skin barrier, which is often compromised by over-cleansing or synthetic products.
Gentle and versatile – Safe for babes, elders, and anyone with sensitive or reactive skin.
Whole and local – No mystery ingredients. No greenwashing. Just rendered fat from grass-fed animals raised on regenerative farms.
It’s both wildly effective and wildly simple.
Not all tallow is created equal. We use only 100% grass-fed, pasture-raised, Canadian-sourced suet from small family farms practicing regenerative agriculture.
Together, these nutrients help combat signs of aging, reduce inflammation, and promote a healthy, glowing complexion.
Using tallow isn’t just about skincare — not really.
It’s about remembering. Returning. Slowing down long enough to massage your cheeks, your elbows, your belly, your feet — the parts of you that carry and create and hold.
It’s about reclaiming what beauty can feel like when it’s not filtered through algorithms or industry.
It’s not just balm. It’s a rebellion in a jar.
We make our small-batch tallow balm right here in British Columbia.
No fillers. No fluff. Just whole ingredients that whisper to your skin:
You’re already enough.
