Tallow FAQ Is tallow soap and skincare suitable for all skin types? Yes, tallow is generally well-tolerated by all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin. Does tallow have a strong scent? No, if rendered properly, tallow typically has a mild and natural scent that's not overpowering. Is tallow skincare environmentally friendly? Yes, tallow is biodegradable and environmentally sustainable, making it a great choice for eco-conscious consumers. We also avoid putting our tallow skincare products into plastic. Our products come in biodegradable paper tubes or glass jars that can be recycled. Can tallow skincare help with skin conditions like eczema? While individual results may vary, some users have reported improvements in their skin conditions after using tallow based skincare. Is there Lye in our soaps? We do not use lye in our shampoo bars because we want just the right PH for hair. Our tallow face and body bar soaps are made using lye as it's a critical part of the soap making process. After saponification, the chemical reaction that turns oils and lye into soap, no lye remains in our soaps. We also "super fat" our soaps, so that not all the fats have gone through that chemical reaction with the lye, further enriching our soaps with moisturizing fabulousness. After six weeks of curing, yes we let our soaps cure that long, the result is a gentle, natural soap that is safe and nourishing for your skin. Where do you source your tallow? We source our 100% grass-fed and grass-finished beef tallow from US farms. We also use pasture raised goat and sheep tallow from farmers here on Orcas Island. We render all locally sourced tallows here on the farm to further purify our products and ensure the least amount of pressure on the environment and we control the purity of our products. By sourcing tallow locally, we support beloved local farmers on our beautiful island.
