Explore our full range of tallow-based skincare products, each handcrafted with the finest natural ingredients. From moisturizers to soaps, discover how grass-fed tallow can transform your skin with deep hydration, nourishment, and eco-conscious care.
At Nefertem, we create small-batch, handcrafted skincare with high-quality ingredients. Unlike mass-produced brands, we offer larger sizes and dynamic blends, delivering real value and nourishment for your skin.
Tallow is incredibly compatible with your skin because it closely resembles the natural oils your skin produces.
This allows for deep, long-lasting hydration without feeling greasy.
Packed with vitamins A, D, E, K and B12, and omega fatty acids, tallow nourishes and balances skin, making it great for all skin types.
Unlike watered-down lotions that contain synthetic chemicals, our moisturizers are ultra-concentrated with natural oils, butters, and grass-fed tallow.
They provide long-lasting hydration and nourishment, making them far superior to conventional lotions.
And because they are so concentrated, one jar can last the equivalent of 2 large bottles of lotion.
Initially, the moisturizer may feel a bit oily due to its rich oils and fats.
However, because tallow is biocompatible with our skin, it absorbs deeply and quickly into the layers of your skin.
For best results, start with just a pea-sized amount and apply after a shower or bath, when your pores are open and ready to absorb it.
This will ensure your skin feels soft, nourished, and hydrated without a greasy residue.
Yes, you can. Most customers love the results on their face, but every skin type is different.
While many find it hydrating and non-comedogenic, a small number of people have found it a bit heavy for facial use.
We recommend trying a small amount first to see how your skin responds.
We also recommend trying our Unscented Purity Moisturizer for the softest, most gentle hydration for your face.
No, our moisturizers are non-comedogenic, meaning they won’t clog your pores.
In fact, many customers with acne-prone skin report that it helps balance sebum production, which can improve the appearance of acne over time.
Yes, our moisturizers are 100% natural and made with grass-fed tallow and other high-quality ingredients.
We use NO artificial preservatives, dyes, fragrances, parabens, sulfates, or other harmful chemicals, so you can trust that you’re nourishing your skin with clean, pure ingredients.
Our moisturizers are so effective that you usually only need to apply them once per day.
Thanks to the inclusion of grass-fed tallow, the moisturizer carries hydration to the cellular level, preventing dryness throughout the day.
This depends on how much and how often you use it.
Some customers use it from head to toe daily, which may last them 1-2 months, while others use it sparingly, making one jar last 6 months or more.
No, our moisturizers are shelf-stable and do not require refrigeration.
However, we recommend storing them out of direct sunlight and using them within 6 months for optimal quality.
Yes, the moisturizers can melt if exposed to high temperatures or sunlight.
If they melt, they may lose their creamy texture, and the shea butter may form small fat beads.
You can still use it by warming it between your hands, but for best results, store it in a cool, dry place.
Consider using a cold shipping kit during hot weather to prevent melting in transit.
Yes, you can use your fingers without worrying about mold.
Since our moisturizers are water-free, the risk of bacterial growth is minimal.
Just make sure your hands are dry before scooping out of the jar.
Yes, we offer an unscented version called Purity Moisturizer for those who prefer a fragrance-free option.
Yes, our tallow soaps are ideal for sensitive skin. The natural ingredients, combined with tallow’s ability to mimic the skin’s own oils, make our soaps both moisturizing and gentle, suitable for a variety of skin types.
Yes, our tallow soaps are gentle enough for facial use.
They cleanse without over-drying, making them suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
For best results, follow up with our Transform Moisturizer to lock in hydration.
Tallow, which is rich in essential fatty acids, creates a harder, longer-lasting bar with a luxurious, creamy lather.
It mimics the natural oils in your skin, providing intense moisture without stripping your skin of its natural oils.
Plus, tallow-based soaps are gentle, making them great for sensitive or dry skin.
YES!!!!! Sorry unscented soap lovers...our soaps are powerfully aromatic with the purest essential oils on the market.
We use twice the industry standard of essential oils in our soaps which allows them to bring about an aromatherapy experience like no other even at the smallest sliver of soap.
A couple hours at least. I've had people compliment how I smell hours after I've showered, putting nothing on other than the soap I've used.
Yes of course! Our soaps are very versatile. You can easily use a bar to wash your hair, then rinse with apple cider vinegar with cold water or use a traditional conditioner.
Doing this allows your hair to return to a balanced ph level and closes your hair cuticles, just like the concept of shampoo and conditioner.
Customers have raved over the appearance of their hair after using our soaps.
Yes of course! We use clay in every bar of soap. This creates a smooth glide for razors to pass over the skin, cutting the hair effectively, leaving behind silky smooth skin.
Also, our soaps have a rich, creamy lather with tons of thick, stable bubbles - again, perfect for shaving.
Will the lather look like shave gel from a can? Nope, but rest assured it also won't have the chemicals in it either.
Yes. You can store the soaps anywhere so long as they are not sitting in water.
There are no special handling instructions other than draining the soap dish before getting out of the shower so the soap has a chance to dry between uses.
We use the cold-process method to make our soaps. This is the traditional way of soap making passed down through our ancestors.
This method gives us 100% control of what we put in our recipe and we love the way this method produces a solid, nourishing bar of soap.
No...or at least not in our experience.
You know how some soaps make your skin feel like it's cracking when you get out of the shower, or it feels like there's a weird residue or squeaky-ness while you're using it?
Yeah, so we made sure I soaps don't do any of that.
Of course they will clean your skin and remove dirt and oil, but they won't leave you feeling dried out either.
As far as soaps go, they're about as moisturizing as they come.
Emphatically yes! We formulated our soaps to lather even in the hardest of waters...so when we stayed at a hotel and they had soft water...oh my god there were bubbles on top of bubbles!
While a moisturizer provides everyday hydration, the Repair Salve is formulated for more intense skin issues like cuts, scrapes, calluses, or deeply cracked skin.
It's designed to target problem areas and provide deep relief, making it ideal for tough skin conditions.
Our tallow lip balms offer deep hydration without waxy residue, absorbing quickly and locking in moisture.
They’re rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids to nourish your lips from within, leaving them soft, smooth, and protected against the elements.
The Repair Salve is intended for tougher skin issues and is not formulated specifically for lips.
For dry or chapped lips, our tallow lip balms are the best option, providing gentle yet effective hydration.
We do recommend applying after your daily shower when your pores are most open and ready to absorb.
And we also recommend using just a tiny amount as just a little goes a LONG way.
Yes, but always patch test before using a new product if you have sensitive skin just to be sure!
Our Repair Salve is made with 100% natural ingredients and is gentle enough for sensitive skin.
It's free from toxic substances, making it ideal for caring for scrapes, burns, and other skin issues without causing irritation.
Unlike many conventional lip balms, our tallow-based formula nourishes deeply rather than just sitting on the surface.
The essential fatty acids in tallow closely resemble your skin's natural oils, allowing for better absorption and longer-lasting hydration.
While all skin is different, in our experience, we found that the Repair Salve is helpful for dry, cracked skin, calluses, cuts, scrapes, bug bites, sunburns, and chapped hands or feet.
It's a versatile remedy for tough skin issues.
Our lip balms are crafted with natural ingredients, which may soften or melt in extreme heat.
To prevent this, we recommend purchasing our Cold Shipping Kit if you're ordering during the warmer months.
Also, do NOT store lip balms in your vehicle during the summer.
No, both our lip balms and Repair Salve are made with 100% natural ingredients.
They are free from synthetic chemicals, parabens, and artificial fragrances, ensuring a safe and healthy skincare experience.
