Nourish your skin with the amazing benefits of tallow., whipped to a light, buttercream texture that is readily absorbed into the skin.
All of our beef suet is sourced directly from local farms near my home, close to Pittsburgh.
The suet is slowly rendered to produce clean, purified tallow, which is the base of all the skincare products. The rendering process is slow, taking multiple days melting and cooling the fat to purify, remove scent, and all water content. Being that I render the raw suet myself, there is always a lingering buttery scent. Some buy pre-rendered tallow to make skincare products that is deodorized chemically to remove the scent. Big companies bleach and steam deodorize; this process removes many of the beneficial, nutritional content, and alters the fatty acid profiles from the tallow.
My tallow products are first wet rendered with salted water on low heat, strained, rendered a second time with only water, and finally, 3 dry renders to remove all water. What is left behind is a clean, purified tallow that is nutrient dense and wonderful for the skin.
Tallow has a highly stable lipid structure that closely mimics the composition of human skin. Tallow contains fat soluble vitamins that are easily absorbed into the skin. Tallow fatty acid profile includes oleic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, and conjugated linoleic acid, these fatty acids lock in moisture, soothe irritation skin and reinforces a protective barrier on the skin. Tallow also contains many bioavailable micronutrients that complement healthy skin.
