For centuries, people cared for their skin using what nature offered. Simple, elemental ingredients that truly worked. One of those timeless ingredients is tallow. It is returning to skincare for good reason, because it behaves like your skin’s own natural oils.
Tallow from grass fed cattle has a composition that is almost identical to human sebum. That is why it absorbs easily instead of sitting on the surface. It nourishes your skin with the same types of fats it needs to stay soft, balanced, and resilient.
Beyond texture, tallow provides something most moisturizers cannot match. It is rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K. These nutrients help repair the skin barrier, support collagen, and protect against daily stressors such as wind, sun, and pollution. There is no need for synthetic versions because they are already present in their natural form.
Our process matters too. We render the tallow slowly at low temperatures to preserve its full nutrient content. Then it is hand whipped with organic oils to create a smooth, airy texture that melts on contact.
This is skincare the way it once was. Pure, nutrient rich, minimal, and made with care. At art & tallow, that is what we mean by elemental skincare, artfully made.
