Like everything else, not all tallow products are created equal. Cute Farmer Tallow is made locally in the heart of the Midwest, using top-quality fat from grass-fed cows sourced from local farmers in Pecatonica, IL.

This ancient ingredient helps keep skin hydrated and rejuvenates, leaving your skin soft and radiant. With tallow, each application is a touch of nature and tradition in your skincare routine.

Tallow is biologically similar to the oils your skin naturally produces, making it deeply compatible and easy to absorb. It is effective in soothing dry, irritated, or sensitive skin without clogging pores. It is packed with vitamins A, D, E, and K — all essential for maintaining healthy, youthful, and resilient skin.

It’s important to understand that hydration starts with water. Our tallow balms are anhydrous (water-free), so they don’t hydrate the skin themselves — instead, they lock in moisture. It is best to apply tallow right after a shower or after a quick splash of water. This sealing power is what helps prevent trans-epidermal water loss and keeps your skin soft, smooth, and protected all day. Along with tallow we craft our balms with locally sourced organic beeswax that is not bleached, to deeply nourish and care for your skin. Beeswax offers a triple-action miracle: it draws moisture into your skin, protects it with natural antiseptic properties, and boosts collagen production thanks to its vitamin A content.
