“I love how much your products have helped my eczema. Nothing else has calmed my eczema as much as your tallow products have!” - Alia

Tallow absorbs fast, leaving your skin soft without a greasy feeling. Its composition is so similar to that of our skin oil (sebum), that our skin absorbs it deeply and quickly. Tallow’s composition, which mimics that of our skin oil can help with eczema, dryness, flakiness, redness, hyperpigmentation, oiliness & acne and balancing skin.

Our All Natural Butter is a popular choice for both the face and body, since it is low comedogenic. This is our most popular butter for sensitive skin and young skin.

It has a light cocoa scent from the small amount of organic cocoa butter added for extra hydration, scent, and it’s skin-loving benefits. It’s texture is silky smooth—lightly whipped with organic jojoba oil for easy application.

  • Rich in antioxidants, which helps protect skin from free radicals

  • A gentle cleanser- cleans the skin well without stripping it

  • Soothing for inflamed, patchy, and aggravated skin

Benefits of Olive Oil in Soap

  • Its anti-inflammatory properties make it great for sensitive skin

The base of beef tallow, olive oil, castor oil, and milk makes for a beautiful hard bar of soap, with a gentle lather and soft finish.

Why Tallow?

Grass fed Beef Tallow resembles our natural skin oil very closely making it ideal for ALL skin types. Its ability to balance oil production makes it suitable for dry, combination, and oily-prone skin.

Our 100% Grass-fed & Grass-finished Tallow is known for its vitamins and minerals, but the real secret is in its high Fatty Acid content.

This allows it to:

  • Help boost collagen production

  • Hydrate and soothe dry patchy skin,

  • Help provide relief for eczema flares

  • Provide a skin-moisture barrier without clogging pores

  • Help balance oil production making it a wonderful product for the face

What Sets Us Apart

Not All Tallow is Created Equal

We source exclusively from halal & tayyib raised, grass-fed and grass-finished cattle raised by local Canadian Muslim farmers.

Every batch is carefully rendered and crafted at home to preserve quality, because what goes on your skin should meet the same standard as what goes into your body.

This isn’t mass-produced skincare.
It’s intentional & small-batch.

How Tallow Supports Different Skin Types

Dryness & Dehydrated Skin

Did you know Tallow mimics the composition of our skin sebum (oil)? It’s Fatty Acids replenish our skin’s moisture levels, creating an experience of smooth, healthy, and comfortable skin instead of being tight, cracked, and flaky..

Irritated or Eczema-Prone Skin

Our tallow skincare is gentle on damaged skin due to the absence of synthetic additives; many of our customers use it for eczema flareups, as it helps soothe visible redness while easing itchiness and pain.

Our Halal & Grassfed Tallow Butters & Spaps contain vital nutrients that promote natural skin healing. In time, it can help scars, uneven texture, and long-standing dryness appear more even. Consistency is key!

Sensitive Skin

Our tallow is fully grassfed and hormone/antibiotic free, making it ideal for very sensitive skin. Given it’s rich nutrient profile and its careful sourcing, using our skincare is a way to nourish & calm the skin without aggravating issues like acne, eczema, rosacea, etc further.

My son also has eczema and your Tallow has made such a difference in his skin as well."
