Beef tallow (fat) on your skin, is really worth the hype? Beef tallow, or rendered beef fat, has been used for centuries as a natural skin moisturizer. Beef tallow is a naturally rich source of nutrients, antioxidants, and fatty acids that can nourish and improve the health and appearance of your skin. Tallow helps to keep your skin hydrated while protecting it against environmental damage.
How to Use Beef Tallow
First and foremost, you need to source it from a reputable company. Not all tallow is created equal. Many companies buy their tallow already rendered from large companies; the problem is the way in which this tallow is not only rendered but sourced. Many companies bleach and deodorize the poor-quality tallow they are sourcing. Pay attention to who you are purchasing it from!
Moisturization
Tallow is excellent for hydrating your skin! Tallow balm, butter, or sticks, all are great options to moisturize your skin and a little goes a long way. Rub the balm into your skin like any other moisturizer and let it "melt" in to deliver that intense hydration your skin needs. You will notice an immediate soft feeling to your skin. Being that tallow is 100% pure, your skin is able to quickly absorb, unlike the many chemical-based lotions.
Soothe Dry Skin
Dry or cracked skin? Tallow balm can help heal it. While delivering essential nutrients to help repair your damaged skin cells, tallow balm will soothe and hydrate your skin.
Use tallow on dry patches, fine lines, stretch marks, cracked skin, or anywhere that needs pure moisturization.
Body Scrub
When it comes to glowing skin, one of the best ways to achieve it is through some form of exfoliation. Of course, there are a lot of products out there full of chemicals and synthetic fragrances that can hurt you in the long run. With Thistle & Bloom Body Scrub, you can be rest assured that our scrub is safe for your skin.
Our body scrub helps achieve glowing skin while combining the benefits of tallow and raw sugar. It’s the most amazing exfoliator ever!
Calm Skin Irritations
With natural anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties, tallow is great for treating skin irritations. Tallow balm can be used to soothe skin irritation or cuts, simply apply a small amount to the area and let absorb into the skin. Reminder, we suggest using The Purist line as this line of tallow products contain no essential oils.
Whether you are looking for a natural alternative for your daily moisturizer or just want the extra hydration that tallow is known for - incorporating tallow into your daily skincare routine have countless benefits!
