If you're new to the world of natural skincare, you might be wondering what all the buzz is about beef tallow. Yes—beef tallow for skin is a thing… and if you’re like me, it might sound strange at first. But hear me out—because this old-school, nutrient-rich fat is one of nature’s best-kept skincare secrets.

✨ What Is Beef Tallow?

Beef tallow is rendered fat from cows—specifically from the suet, which is the fat surrounding the kidneys. When it’s sourced from grass-fed and finished cattle, it’s incredibly rich in skin-supportive nutrients like:

• Vitamins A, D, E, and K

• Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)

• Stearic acid and oleic acid—fatty acids that mimic your skin’s natural oils

This makes beef tallow one of the most nourishing and skin-compatible moisturizers nature provides.

💧 Is Beef Tallow Good for Your Skin?

Absolutely. Grass-fed tallow is a deeply hydrating, anti-inflammatory, and non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores) ingredient that’s perfect for:

• Dry or sensitive skin

• Eczema or psoriasis

• Skin barrier repair

• Families who want non-toxic, truly natural skincare

Because the fatty acid profile of tallow closely matches human sebum, it’s incredibly well-absorbed—meaning your skin actually knows what to do with it.

🧴 Tallow vs. Modern Moisturizers

Most conventional lotions are made with water, preservatives, and synthetic ingredients. These fillers can irritate already-sensitive skin—and they don’t actually help rebuild the skin’s moisture barrier.

Tallow-based balms, on the other hand, are:

• Oil-rich and concentrated

• Free from synthetic fragrances or preservatives

• Long-lasting and healing

• Safe for babies, mamas, and anyone with delicate skin

🌿 A Return to Traditional Skincare

For generations, tallow was a staple in home apothecaries. Our grandmothers used it to soothe cracked knuckles, protect against windburn, and keep baby skin soft and healthy. We’re simply bringing that tradition back—with a fresh, modern twist.

At Cattle + Comb, we handcraft every jar using:

• 100% grass-fed, grass-finished beef tallow

• Raw, unfiltered honey

• Organic cold-pressed jojoba oil

• And therapeutic-grade essential oils (or none at all for our PURE blend)
