dermatologists will tell you sure beef tallow is fine but modern skin care is so much better why would you use such a primitive thing science has solved it for uswell unfortunately science never helped me and i tried so many things from medications to supplements to creams to clensers and toners and systems ive bleached more towels by accident than i care to count anymore and i had to stop wearing makeup all together because it just made everything worse in fact the less i mess with my face at all the better it does i was down to just water and nothing else my face wasnt perfect but it was better than other methodsthat said i cant find a single grass fed beef product willing to back up the claim that its loaded with vitamins not 1 label with the courage to say how much food or beauty thats concerning to me its probably true what they say about it containing the wrong acids to properly hydrate your skin and yes it is really off putting knowing you could eat something you are putting on your face you will absolutely have a moment your first timehowever ive also tried plant based fats as natural products the results are disappointingly similar to the science backed and well researched ones id like to point out that the dermatologists saying tallow is ok but not the best trust affordable science instead  never mention a single brand to try instead or advocate for finding stuff that has similar isolated ingredients in tallow and dont seem to be aware how time consuming and expensive high quality science backed skin care can get not even a i like this one perhaps there are simply too many science backed skin care products that work spoiled for choice i guess but they dont work for me and honestly they all have similar ingredients no matter how hard you look its aggregious how many have alcohol in them even though they say never put alcohol on your skini made huge changed in my diet and skin care this year based around a single principle of avoiding synthetics as much as possible that means synthetic vitamins that they load science backed products with as well there is a difference between synthetic vitamins and naturally occuring ones just as there is a difference between plant fats and animal fats and natural sources so long as they arent overly processed appear to have ingredients that just work together one ingredient thats bad for you in isolation reacts completely differently in the prescence of another that lead me to trying beef tallow i tried to find pure grass fed beef tallow that was geared specifically for skin but was frustrated by my search while this is herbal infused and contains some plant fat i have to admit it is the least irritating stuff i have ever put on my facei cant claim its hyper moisturizing i dont get that same ahhhh feeling temporarily offered by synthetics and plant fats after application but what i do get is just normal skin it feels heavy for a few minutes while it absorbs but once it has youre left with just normal skin no tightness no irritation no increase in face oils or shinny tight skin because tallow apparently mimics our own sebum no need to produce more of the same no urge to apply more product by my experience there is nothing ive used that can balance like this and nothing that is so simple and fastim sure the difficulty in beef tallow if you find its for you is finding grass fed from a reliable company there is probably like everything in the natural skincarehealthcare world huge swings in quality  you have to learn how to buy it and yes i find it really irritating that everyone says loaded with fat soluable vitamins and fats but no product is willing to expand on that claim on their packaging this included though i wouldnt expect that from a beauty product necessarilyit objectively just works for me and this company really seems to care about quality and consistency science and plants just dont work for me i dont even like handmade plant based soap the smell of castile soap honestly makes me nauseous my lard based soap i got for christmas even cleans my bathtub better than harsh chemical cleaners and doesnt leave soap scum i cant wait to get tallow soapthis tallow no doubt is great stuff and i will be buying again
