Katie's Story
How It All Started
For years, I struggled with persistent skin issues—acne, perioral dermatitis—you name it. I tried everything: 13-step skincare routines, prescription retinols, facials, harsh treatments. While I managed to keep my skin somewhat under control, I ultimately damaged my skin barrier with all the aggressive products I was using.
By the summer of 2024, my acne was the worst it had been in years. I felt defeated, insecure, and exhausted from chasing the elusive "glass skin" everyone seems to want. That’s when I took a step back and started researching how to heal my skin barrier and return to the basics.
During my deep dive, I came across others using tallow for skincare, praising its intensely nourishing and hydrating properties. Since we already used tallow in cooking, I had some on hand. One day, in my kitchen, I decided to experiment—I blended tallow with other skin-loving ingredients such as castor oil and frankincense, creating a simple, nutrient-rich lotion.
Within just two weeks, my skin transformed. My breakouts vanished, my skin felt healthier than ever, and aside from the occasional hormonal pimple, I haven’t looked back since.
This experience completely changed my approach to skincare. No more complicated routines, no more damaging chemicals—just simple, effective ingredients that work. After months of seeing the results firsthand, I knew I had to share this with others who, like me, had tried everything and felt hopeless.
And that’s how this journey began.

FAQs
TALLO is a minimalist skincare brand rooted in simplicity, purity, and performance. Our hero ingredient is grass-fed beef tallow—, nutrient-dense fat that's naturally rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K. Unlike many skincare products that rely on synthetic fillers or seed oils, TALLO is made with just a few organic ingredients your skin can recognize and actually use. It’s skincare that does less, but better.
Yes, beef tallow is highly beneficial for your skin because it closely mimics the natural oils your skin produces. This makes it deeply moisturizing, non-comedogenic, and ideal for supporting the skin barrier. Tallow absorbs easily, helps lock in hydration, and soothes dry or irritated skin without clogging pores. At TALLO, we use grass-fed beef tallow in our skincare because it’s a clean, natural moisturizer that delivers visible results—making it perfect for anyone seeking healthy, nourished, and balanced skin with minimal ingredients.
TALLO is designed to work as a daily moisturizer or balm. It also sits beautifully under makeup. Because it absorbs easily and doesn’t clog pores, it helps create a smooth, hydrated canvas for all application purposes. Just a small amount massaged into damp skin is enough to keep your skin glowing all day.
Nope! TALLO is completely free from artificial fragrance, essential oils, parabens, and synthetic preservatives. We keep it simple with organic ingredients that are safe and gentle, even for sensitive skin. If you're looking for fragrance-free skincare with no harsh chemicals, you're in the right place.
You can use the tallow whipped moisturizer once or twice daily—morning and night—depending on your skin’s needs. Many customers use it as a nighttime moisturizer to lock in hydration and wake up with smooth, balanced skin. Because it's so rich, you only need a tiny amount to get results. TALLO can be used on your face or body as a natural moisturizer.
Yes, TALLO is formulated without common irritants, making it a great choice for sensitive and acne-prone skin. Beef tallow has natural anti-inflammatory properties and won’t clog pores like many synthetic creams or oils can. Our minimal ingredient list helps reduce the chance of breakouts or irritation.
