This is what makes beef tallow a miracle remedy in skincare

Tallow, purified beef fat, is one of the ingredients closest to the skin that exist. Not a trendy ingredient, nor an exotic extract, but an ancestral skincare that simply works.

The real innovation in skincare isn't adding ingredients. It's choosing the right ones

More vitamins for you

Studies show that fat from grass-fed beef contains 3 to 4 times more vitamins A and E, up to 5 times more omega-3 and 2 to 4 times more CLA than fat from grain-fed beef. That makes it not only more ethical, but also significantly richer in nutrients for your skin.

LIPIDS IDENTICAL TO THOSE OF THE SKIN

Tallow contains fatty acids such as stearic acid and palmitic acid, found in an almost identical form in our skin's natural barrier

SCIENTIFIC FACTS

Skin barrier function

“Up to 60% of the skin barrier is made of lipids – and beef tallow mimics them almost perfectly.”Source: Elias PM. “Stratum corneum lipids serve as the primary skin barrier against water loss and external aggressions.” (J Invest Dermatol, 2005)

Saturated fatty acids reduce moisture loss

“Stearic acid and palmitic acid, abundantly present in beef tallow, help reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL) by forming a protective lipid layer.”Rawlings AV, Harding CR. “Moisturization and skin barrier function.” (Dermatol Ther, 2004)

Beef tallow contains cholesterol – essential for skin barrier repair

“Cholesterol is essential for restoring the skin barrier – and beef tallow naturally contains it.”Elias PM et al. “Essential role of lipids in maintaining the epidermal barrier.” (Am J Clin Dermatol, 2003)

The lipids in beef tallow are identical to those of the skin

“The fatty acid profile of beef tallow largely matches that of human sebum – which makes it very well tolerated and does not disturb the skin microbiome.”Lipids of the sebaceous glands and stratum corneum.” (J Lipid Res, 1992)

Vitamin E protects against UV damage

“Topical vitamin E (present in beef tallow) can reduce skin damage and inflammation caused by UVB rays.”Thiele JJ et al. “Vitamin E: critical review of its roles in skin biology.” (Free Radic Biol Med, 1998)

Vitamin A (retinyl palmitate) promotes collagen production and skin renewal.

“Retinyl palmitate, a natural form of vitamin A present in beef tallow, supports cell renewal and collagen production.”Kafi R et al. “Improvement of naturally aged skin with topical retinol.” (Arch Dermatol, 2007)

Omega-3 and CLA reduce inflammation

“Tallow from grass-fed animals contains omega-3 and CLA – known to reduce irritation and support skin homeostasis.”Source: Bhattacharya A et al. “Biological effects of conjugated linoleic acids.” (J Nutr Biochem, 2006)

Glycerin is a natural moisturizer

“Beef tallow may contain small amounts of natural glycerin – a powerful moisturizing agent that draws moisture into the skin.”Lodén M. “Role of moisturizers in barrier recovery.” (Dermatol Ther, 2008)

A skincare in keeping with the Sunnah

Our Halal-certified beef tallow meets the same standards of purity as those passed down for centuries: raw, natural ingredients, without artifice, in direct continuity with the Sunnah.
