Why use tallow?

Beef tallow is a form of rendered fat that comes from extracting fat after processing cow meat. The fat is slowly melted to separate it from the beef tissues.

Grass fed cows produce tallow that is full of vitamins and minerals your skin needs to heal and thrive. We source our suet from grass fed free range cattle from verdant pastures high in the Rocky Mountains from local 5th generation ranchers. Tallow contains high concentrations of vitamins A,D,K and E along with essential fatty acids that your skin needs. Beef tallow is incredibly effective at improving skin health due to the similar make up it has to our skin as our cell membranes are 50% fatty acids the same as tallow.

Using tallow for skin application has a long standing tradition for skin healing and many other purposes for centuries in the Rockies and we try to stay true to that history.
