Tallow is a nourishing, skin-compatible fat rendered from beef suet — the nutrient-packed fat found around the kidneys of grass-fed, grass-finished cattle. When sourced properly and rendered traditionally, tallow becomes one of the most effective skincare ingredients available: structurally aligned with human skin, naturally abundant in essential nutrients, and capable of delivering results that plant-based moisturizers simply can’t replicate.

Unlike conventional creams that sit on the surface, tallow mimics the skin’s own sebum and absorbs quickly—supporting skin function from the inside out. Its unique fatty acid profile allows it to nourish deeply, calm irritation, and strengthen the barrier without clogging pores or disrupting your skin’s natural rhythm.

Our tallow is packed with skin-repairing fatty acids like:

• Oleic acid – deeply hydrating, softens and enhances permeability

• Stearic acid – supports a strong, sealed skin barrier

• Palmitic acid – improves tone and texture

• Linoleic & myristic acids – calm inflammation and support healing

It also delivers a powerful dose of:

• Vitamin A – promotes cell turnover, reduces acne, and supports collagen production

• Vitamin D – enhances skin immunity, improves texture, and combats premature aging

• Vitamin E – protects against oxidative damage, soothes inflammation, and aids in repair

• Vitamin K – supports healing, improves skin tone, and reduces redness

These nutrients are naturally present in fat-soluble form, meaning they don’t need synthetic carriers to be effective—they’re already ready for your skin to use.

Quality Matters

Not all tallow is created equal. At Wild Haven Skin, we source only from regenerative farms, using pure suet from 100% grass-fed and grass-finished cattle. We traditionally dry-render it over low heat, without ever bleaching, deodorizing, or chemically altering it. This is what preserves the full lipid profile and ensures maximum efficacy.

Our commitment to purity is what makes our tallow different. We don’t just use tallow — we protect its integrity.
