Our 8-ounce Organic Whipped Tallow Lotion is a deeply nourishing, whole-body moisturizer designed to support healthy, resilient skin through every season. Made with tallow from grass-fed, organic Missouri cows, this rich lotion is packed with skin-compatible nutrients and fatty acids that mimic your skin’s natural oils, allowing for superior absorption and long-lasting hydration without greasiness.
To enhance its soothing properties, we infuse organic jojoba oil, calendula, chamomile, and marshmallow root—botanicals traditionally used to calm irritation, reduce redness, and protect the skin barrier. The result is a powerhouse blend that:
Relieves dry, chapped, or flaky skin by delivering deep, replenishing moisture
Supports skin barrier repair with naturally occurring vitamins A, D, E, and K found in grass-fed tallow
Soothes sensitivity and helps calm conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea with anti-inflammatory herbs
Promotes elasticity and suppleness, leaving skin soft, smooth, and radiant
Protects against environmental stressors like wind, cold, and indoor heat—perfect for winter skincare
Balances skin naturally, making it suitable for all skin types, from dry and mature to oily and sensitive
Gentle enough for daily use on the face or body, this whipped tallow lotion is a pure, nutrient-rich alternative to synthetic creams, providing your skin with everything it needs to thrive.
