FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is tallow, and why is it used in skincare?

 

Tallow is a nutrient-rich fat traditionally sourced from grass-fed beef suet. It closely mimics our skin’s natural oils, making it highly bioavailable and deeply nourishing. It’s packed with vitamins A, D, E, and K — all essential for healthy, resilient skin.

Is your tallow grass-fed and ethically sourced?

 

Yes! We only use high-quality, grass-fed and finished tallow sourced from trusted local farms. Our commitment to clean, conscious sourcing is a top priority.

 

 

---

 

Can I use your products on my face and body?

 

Absolutely. Our tallow blends are designed to be multi-use. You can use them from head to toe — including face, body, lips, hands, feet, and even as a hair or beard balm.

 

 

---

 

Are your products suitable for sensitive skin?

 

Yes! Our formulas are simple, whole, and made without synthetic ingredients, making them suitable for most sensitive skin types. If you’re extremely sensitive or allergic to botanicals, check the ingredient list or choose our essential oil–free options.

How should I store my tallow balm?

 

Tallow is shelf-stable but should be kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. In warmer months, some softening may occur — this does not affect product quality. You can refrigerate it for a firmer texture if preferred.

 

 

---

 

Why does my balm have cracks or a whipped texture?

 

This is totally normal! Because we don’t use fillers, waxes, or stabilizers, natural cracking or texture variation can occur during the cooling process. It doesn't affect performance and is a sign of a truly clean product.

 

 

---

 

Do you accept returns or exchanges?

 

Due to the nature of our handcrafted products and for hygiene reasons, all sales are final. We do not accept returns or exchanges. Please read product descriptions carefully and reach out with any questions before ordering — we’re always happy to help guide you to the right choice for your needs.

My product feels different than last time — is that normal?

 

Yes. Since our batches are handmade using real ingredients and no preservatives, slight variations in texture, scent, or color may occur. This is completely normal and part of the beauty of small-batch skincare!

 

 

---

 

Are your products safe for kids and pets?

 

Many of our blends are gentle enough for little ones, and some are even safe for pets! We offer essential oil–free formulas ideal for babies, toddlers, and furry friends — like paw balm, hot spot soothers, and lick-safe moisturizers. Always patch test first and check individual product details.
