The History of Tallow

The History of Tallow - Ancient Times to Modern Day 

Ancient Use:
Tallow has been used for thousands of years. Ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans used tallow for skincare, medicinal purposes, and even as an ingredient in their soaps and - ointments.

Traditional Practices:
Historically, cultures around the world, including Native Americans and European settlers, would render animal fats into tallow for a range of purposes—cooking, candle-making, and skincare.

Why the Return to Tallow Today?

Natural:
With the rise of natural beauty trends, tallow is being rediscovered for its pure, chemical-free properties. Sourced from grass-fed animals, it’s a more natural choice for skincare. 

Holistic Skincare:
Tallow’s ability to deeply nourish the skin while avoiding synthetic additives makes it a go-to for those looking to support skin health the natural way.
