ADVICE

Use Tallow For Deep Nourishment

  • Use grass-fed tallow-based moisturizers because tallow's fatty acid profile closely matches human sebum.
  • Pair tallow with low-comedogenic carrier oils and essential oils for better absorption and healing.

  • She reports the wound cleared within days after applying the tallow-based balm.
ADVICE
