Have you heard about Tallow in skincare? I’ll give you the important info discussing “The Reasons Tallow is Beneficial in Skincare.”
First, the reason Tallow is beneficial in skincare is it really closely mimics the fats and oils we have naturally in our skin.
As we get older, our skin slows down on the production of these oils that keep our skin soft, and youthful-looking.
Grass-fed tallow helps put back what time takes away.
Rejuvenating the appearance of the skin, as well as smoothing out the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
WHAT IS TALLOW?
- It’s is an incredibly nourishing, vitamin-rich form of pure, rendered animal fat.
- Healthy fats are actually beneficial AND essential when it comes to our overall health, starting at a cellular level.
Tallow (specifically from grass-fed cows), is a game-changer. Not only is beef tallow a healthy cooking fat, but it also acts as a topical superfood for the skin!
WHY IS TALLOW WORK IN SKINCARE?
Tallow is incredibly effective in improving skin cell health due to the similar makeup it has to our skin. Our cell membranes are made up of mostly fatty acids, with at least 50% being saturated fats. Tallow is also made up of about 50% saturated fats – with the remaining amount being monounsaturated – making it compatible with our cell biology and powerfully nourishing for our cell health.
WHAT IS IN TALLOW?
-
- Vitamin A – encourages the production of collagen, elastin, and healthy skin cells + strengthens tissue to keep skin firm, smooth and youthful while helping to heal skin issues from acne to aging.
- Vitamin D – contributes to skin cell development, repair, metabolism, and immune function + protects and rejuvenates the skin by protecting against free radicals that cause premature aging.
- Vitamin K – an important role in skin tone, texture, and overall health + soothes skin inflammation and irritations while helping to speed up the healing process.
- Vitamin E – Powerful antioxidant that repairs and reverses free radical damage + deeply hydrates and promotes healing in skin’s appearance.
