Tallow contains antioxidants.

Tallow contains Vitamins A, D, K, and E, all antioxidants. Antioxidants fight free radical damage. Free radicals are molecules in our bodies that become unstable and damage skin cells. Free radicals are caused by environmental stressors like pollution, sun exposure, and other toxins. Damage from free radicals causes our collagen to break down, which results in wrinkles, fine lines, dark spots, and loose skin. Antioxidants help protect your skin from free radical damage, which helps reduce the signs of aging. By combating free radical damage before it happens, you can help your skin look younger and healthier for longer.

Tallow doesn’t clog pores and works with your sebaceous glands.

Vitamin A in tallow helps our sebaceous glands and skin operate at their optimal capacity when used correctly. Vitamin A is known for helping our cells turnover faster, which reduces acne and skin irritation. Given the molecular structure of our skin and the suet used to make tallow, it is naturally more compatible with our skin, allowing it to act as natural sebum, locking in moisture and nutrients without clogging pores. This is a significant factor in what makes tallow ideal for a skincare base.

Tallow Has Antimicrobial Properties

Antimicrobial products stop the spread of microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

Our skin is exposed to a ton of surfaces each day, and as our largest organ, it can be an ideal place for microorganisms to accumulate and grow. Antimicrobial skincare is a great way to protect our skin from these microorganisms, and it will help the product itself remain free of bacteria.

Vitamins in tallow can help produce collagen.

Vitamin E is known for its anti-aging properties. It helps stimulates blood flow to our skin, which increases collagen production, and helps prevent signs of aging. By increasing collagen production, you can keep your skin looking smooth and firm for longer. Tallow helps soothe skin injuries and helps repair damage faster.
