This beautifully hand made tallow is packed with nutrients and is extremely rich in retinol which is nectar for the skin. This pure and clean looking white cream is composed of tallow fat from beef cattle that have been grass fed to maintain all of the best nutrients, and it is then whipped to make a natural and ideal skin food. The beef tallow is the closest match you can find to human skin which is why it is so nutritious and soothing to delicate facial skin. Brilliant for dry and eczema prone skin as well as psoriasis due to the lipids and natural fatty omega 3 and 6 acids. So for a detailed explanation of the beef tallow composition it is at this point that this will not be something that vegans and vegetarians will want to use as it is clearly from a cow. It comprises of rendered beef fat that has been used for centuries in traditional skincare. The fat is very rich in nutrients and essential fatty acids like oleic, palmitic and stearic acids, which help to nourish and moisturise the skin. It is packed with fat soluble vitamins, especially Vitamin A, which helps with conditions such as acne and psoriasis due to its aiding of cell turnover. Its moisturising properties are literally amazing, after one use you definitely notice the softness of your skin and the extra plump feeling to it. I find that it lays a wonderful barrier to all the allergens that set my allergic skin off into its rashy condition, especially with the hay fever season pollens. I normally have this annoying itch on my face permanently for months.. no more! Beef Tallow has Anti-Inflammatory properties also, the fatty acids in tallow can help with redness and irritation associated with eczema and dermatitis. Again heading back to my own experience, this is absolutely correct for me. I used to have a face that looked like a beetroot, bright red and sore and dry etc, literal misery.. I 100% noticed the decrease in redness and dryness that I would get when an allergy hit after using the beef tallow. My face felt so comfortable and this was a great relief. Beef tallow is very easily absorbed and well tolerated as its natural oils are so similar to the fatty acids found in human skin, therefore there is great biocompatibility. Tallow is a fantastic support for healing the skin as its nutrient rich profile supports wound healing and skin repair, making it an excellent go to for helping to repair scars and dry patches. Let’s not forget that Beef Tallow is natural and non toxic unlike many commercial moisturisers that contain synthetic ingredients or preservatives that maybe less tolerable to the human skin, these chemicals can also find their way into the body causing some problems aside from the skin. For more mature skin like mine it is a great anti ageing product that helps with softening wrinkles and smoothing the complexion, leaving you with younger looking more protected skin. Tallow is temperature sensitive so will harden up in cold conditions and soften when heated, so it is best to keep at room temperature for the best application. Apply twice a day onto clean skin. Apply sparingly if you have very oily acne prone skin.
