Moisturizers

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.

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. Many customers love the results on their face, but every skin type is different.

While most 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, fragrances, or harmful chemicals, so you can trust that you’re nourishing your skin with clean, pure ingredients.

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.

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.

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.

Our tallow soaps are formulated to last longer than typical store-bought or vegan soaps.

Some customers report their soap lasting up to 2 months with regular use, while others might go through a bar in about 2 weeks depending on frequency of use and storage methods.

For best results, keep the soap dry between uses by storing it on a well-draining soap dish and avoiding prolonged exposure to standing water.

Each of our soaps weighs no less than 4.2 oz, though due to their handmade nature, they may vary slightly in size.

On average, each bar is about 4.4 oz and measures 3" wide, 2.5" tall, and 1" deep.

Regardless of size, you’re guaranteed a bar packed with skin-loving ingredients.

We use organic essential oils for scent and clays and herbs for coloring.

No micas, no oxides, no FD&C colors, or titanium dioxide. Just pure & natural.

We use the traditional cold-process method for soap making, which allows us full control over the ingredients and ensures a bar that is both nourishing and long-lasting.

This process also preserves the beneficial properties of the tallow and essential oils, creating a high-quality bar of soap.
