Why We Use Grass-Fed, Grass-Finished Beef Tallow from Small U.S. Farms

At Suede Skin, every choice we make is guided by a simple principle: use only the best, most ethically sourced ingredients to nurture your skin. One of our cornerstone ingredients—grass-fed, grass-finished beef tallow—embodies this commitment to quality and responsibility. Here’s why we choose to partner with small U.S. farms and why this exceptional ingredient is so beneficial for your skin.

Nutrient-Dense and Hydrating:
Beef tallow sourced from grass-fed, grass-finished cattle is rich in essential fatty acids, vitamins A, D, E, and K, and antioxidants. These nutrients work together to deeply hydrate and support your skin’s natural moisture barrier. 

Sustainably and Ethically Sourced:
We partner with small-scale farms across the United States that prioritize regenerative and humane farming practices. By choosing grass-fed, grass-finished animals, we’re not only ensuring a cleaner, nutrient-rich tallow, but also supporting responsible land stewardship. This approach respects both the animal and the environment, contributing to healthier soils, cleaner waterways, and more biodiverse habitats.

Naturally Non-Toxic and Endocrine Disruptor-Free:
Your skin is your largest organ, and what you put on it matters. Our grass-fed, grass-finished beef tallow is free from synthetic fragrances, harmful chemicals, and endocrine disruptors. It works harmoniously with your body’s natural processes rather than disrupting them, ensuring that you’re treating your skin to wholesome, non-toxic nourishment.

Gentle on All Skin Types:
Because our tallow is minimally processed and free of harsh additives, it’s suitable for even the most sensitive skin types. Its composition closely mimics the natural oils found in human skin, allowing it to absorb quickly and work effectively without leaving a greasy residue or triggering irritation.

A Legacy of Time-Honored Tradition:
Tallow has been used for centuries as a go-to skin remedy—long before synthetic creams and lotions dominated store shelves. By returning to these roots, we’re not just offering a product; we’re reconnecting with a time-tested ingredient that has proven its worth across generations.

At Suede Skin, we believe in the integrity of our ingredients and the farmers who make our work possible. By choosing grass-fed, grass-finished beef tallow from small U.S. farms, we’re delivering a skincare experience that aligns with our values: honest sourcing, uncompromised quality, and the pure, simple care your skin deserves.
