What is whipped tallow used for?

Whipped tallow is used as a deeply moisturizing skin treatment. It's great for dry, sensitive, or irritated skin — especially for people avoiding artificial fragrances or essential oils.

Is this safe for babies and sensitive skin?

Yes. Our unscented whipped tallow is made with only 100% grass-fed beef tallow and organic olive oil. No fragrances, no essential oils — it's ultra gentle and safe for newborns.

How should I store my tallow balm?

Keep it in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. During summer months, it may soften — store in the fridge if needed.

What is tallow and why use it for skincare?

Tallow is rendered animal fat (typically beef) that closely mimics human skin's natural oils (sebum). It's rich in fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, plus beneficial fatty acids that deeply nourish and repair skin.

Is tallow safe for all skin types?

Yes, tallow is generally safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin. It's biocompatible with human skin and has a low comedogenic rating (typically 1-2 out of 5).

Will tallow clog my pores or cause acne?

Despite common misconceptions, quality tallow has a comedogenic rating of 1-2, making it unlikely to clog pores. It's often beneficial for acne-prone skin due to its antimicrobial properties.

How do I apply tallow to my skin?

Warm a small amount between your fingers until it melts, then apply to clean, slightly damp skin. A little goes a long way - start with about half a penny-sized amount.

How much tallow should I use?

Less is more with tallow. Start with a very small amount (pea-sized or smaller) and add more if needed. Using too much can feel greasy and take longer to absorb.

Can I use tallow on my face?

Yes! Tallow is excellent for facial use. Many brands specifically formulate face-friendly versions that absorb well without feeling heavy.

How often should I use tallow products?

Most brands recommend daily use, typically 5-7 days per week. You can use it morning and/or evening as part of your regular skincare routine.

Does tallow smell like meat/beef?

Quality tallow should have minimal to no "beefy" smell. Properly rendered tallow has a mild, neutral scent that dissipates quickly after application. Many products include essential oils for pleasant fragrances.

Why does my tallow balm feel grainy or hard?

Temperature changes during shipping or storage can cause texture variations. This is normal for pure, unrefined tallow. Warming between hands or gently heating the jar can restore smooth texture.

Why is my tallow product melting/separating?

Tallow melts at around 85°F (29°C). If exposed to heat during shipping or storage, it may melt or separate. Simply re-whip with a mixer - this doesn't affect effectiveness.

FAQ

When can I start on a C-section scar? Only after it’s fully closed and your provider says it’s okay.
Will it stain underwear? Balm can transfer; let it absorb and consider a liner.
Is there a scent? No added fragrance—only the natural scent of oils and waxes.

These products are for external skincare support and comfort; they do not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Always patch test. If you have stitches, open wounds, signs of infection, or special instructions, follow your provider’s guidance first. Warm sitz baths and lanolin-based nipple creams are commonly used postpartum; your individual care may vary.
