Tallow Cream
Deep moisture for dry, sensitive skin. Gentle enough for face use.
If your skin feels dry, tight, or irritated no matter what you use, this cream is designed to help support hydration without overwhelming your skin.
Our Tallow Cream is rich and nourishing, yet absorbs well when used in the right amount. While many people first reach for it to soothe hands, heels, and rough patches, a large number of our customers also use it as a daily face moisturizer, especially for dry or sensitive skin.
When skin is properly hydrated and supported, it naturally looks smoother, calmer, and more balanced. With consistent use, many customers notice improved texture and the appearance of fine lines looks softer due to better hydration.

Grass Feed Beef Tallow, Beeswax, Olive Oil, Borage Oil, Marigold Extract, D-alpha Tocopherol (Vitamin E) and Manuka Honey
Grass-Fed Beef Tallow: Tallow is a rich source of fatty acids that are deeply moisturizing, nourishing, and skin-conditioning. It’s high in vitamins A, D, and K, and helps maintain the skin’s natural moisture barrier, promoting smooth and hydrated skin.
Beeswax: Beeswax acts as an emulsifier and stabilizer, helping to thicken the cream and provide a protective barrier on the skin. It also has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that can support skin healing.
Olive Oil: Olive oil is an emollient that is rich in antioxidants, such as vitamin E. It helps to nourish and hydrate the skin, making it soft and supple. It also has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that can support skin health.
Borage Oil: Borage oil is rich in gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), which is an essential fatty acid that helps to promote skin repair and maintain the skin’s natural barrier. It is particularly beneficial for dry or sensitive skin and can soothe irritation.
Marigold Extract (Calendula Extract): Marigold extract is known for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties. It is often used to calm irritated skin, reduce redness, and promote healing. It’s ideal for sensitive or damaged skin.
D-alpha Tocopherol (Vitamin E): Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that helps protect the skin from environmental damage caused by free radicals. It also has moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties, promoting healthy, hydrated skin.
Manuka Honey: Manuka honey is known for its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and healing properties. It helps to soothe and hydrate the skin while also promoting the repair of damaged skin cells.
Together, these ingredients work synergistically to provide nourishment, hydration, and protection for the skin while promoting healing and soothing irritation.
Frequently asked questions
Is this safe to use on my face?
Yes. While many people first use tallow cream on hands or heels, many of our customers use it daily as a facial moisturizer. If you have very sensitive or acne-prone skin, start with a small amount.
Will this clog pores?
Tallow closely mimics the skin’s natural oils, which is why many people find it absorbs well. Everyone’s skin is different, so we recommend patch testing if you’re unsure.
How often should I use it?
Once or twice daily, or anytime your skin feels dry or tight.
Can it help with fine lines?
Well-hydrated skin often looks smoother and more plump. Many customers notice their skin texture looks more even and fine lines appear softer with consistent use.
How long does one jar last?
A little goes a long way. With daily face use, one jar typically lasts several weeks.
The takeaway
Dry skin doesn’t always need more products. It often needs better support.
If your skin feels uncomfortable no matter how much you moisturize, simplifying your routine and focusing on hydration can make a noticeable difference.
Our Tallow Cream is designed to support dry, sensitive skin on both face and body with clean, intentional ingredients.

Amazing Stuff!! Love it
I’ve used the Youth Serum for years as part of my nightly regimen. When Root & Clay developed the Tallow Cream I wanted to give it a try. After using it for several weeks, I’m hooked. It’s so gentle. It goes on smoothly and the moisture it gives my skin is amazing. I’m 73 years old but am constantly guessed as being in my early 60s. I attribute this to the Root & Clay face products I’ve used consistently since I first discovered them. Tallow Cream has now replaced Youth Serum in my nightly regimen and is another R&C product I can’t live without!
I love this stuff!
