Frequently asked questions.

Does Beef Tallow Clog Pores?

The short answer: not usually, and definitely not when used correctly and in high-quality formulations.

Beef tallow is uniquely compatible with human skin because it contains fatty acids like oleic and palmitic acid—the same building blocks found in our skin’s natural sebum. This makes it incredibly nourishing and ideal for dry, sensitive, or compromised skin.

That said, everyone's skin is different. For those with very oily or acne-prone skin, it's important to:

  • Apply tallow products sparingly (a little goes a long way!)

  • Use only on freshly cleansed skin

  • Look for blends with lighter oils like Jojoba, Rosehip, or Sea-buckthorn oil (which we use in our formulas)

Our tallow is always grass-fed, slow-rendered, and triple-filtered to be as clean and bioavailable as possible—free from additives, or synthetic ingredients that are more likely to cause congestion.

What’s the difference between your moisturizers?

Vanilla and Mellow are nearly identical in formulation. Both are built around Rosehip oil, which is packed with essential fatty acids and antioxidants to hydrate and nourish the skin. The only difference? The finishing essential oil. Vanilla is lightly scented with warm vanilla, while Mellow is infused with calming lavender.

It really comes down to preference. Some love Vanilla’s comforting scent for daytime use, while others prefer Mellow’s relaxing aroma for winding down at night.

Vitamin Sea Cream is a little different.

Instead of Rosehip oil, it features Sea Buckthorn oil—a nutrient-rich plant oil known for its vibrant golden color (which blends beautifully into all skin tones). Sea Buckthorn is loaded with vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, and C, and supports skin repair, tone, and elasticity.

We blend it with bright, citrusy essential oils: grapefruit, lime, and orange, plus grounding frankincense for added antioxidant power and mood-boosting aromatherapy. It’s a go-to for morning rituals when you want to wake up your skin—and your senses.
