Our Tallow Healing Salve returns to that tradition.
Crafted with our 100% grass-fed beef tallow, corn- and soy-free lard, beeswax, and comfrey, this salve is intentionally simple and deeply nourishing. No petroleum. No synthetic preservatives. No hormone disruptors. No industrial seed oils. Just time-tested ingredients used for generations to support skin repair and resilience.
• Grass-Fed Beef Tallow – Deeply nourishing and skin-compatible
• Corn- & Soy-Free Lard – Stable fats that support barrier function
• Beeswax – Creates a breathable protective seal
• Comfrey – Traditionally used herb to soothe and support skin repair
Why Animal Fats?
For centuries, tallow and lard were prized in traditional skincare because their fatty acid composition closely resembles our own skin lipids. These stable, saturated and monounsaturated fats help reinforce the skin barrier, soften rough areas, and protect against moisture loss.
Unlike unstable seed oils that oxidize easily, these traditional fats provide a rich, protective layer that supports the skin’s natural recovery process.
Why Comfrey?
Comfrey has long been known in herbal traditions as “knitbone” because of its historical use in supporting the body’s natural repair process. It contains compounds like allantoin that help soothe skin and encourage surface renewal. Infused slowly into our nourishing fat base, comfrey adds gentle herbal support to help calm dry, irritated, or overworked skin.
We don’t outsource our fats. They come directly from our trusted Nourish producers: animals raised right, needle-free, and fed in alignment with our standards. The same care that goes into your food goes into this salve.
Use anywhere your skin needs extra support: dry patches, rough hands, elbows, heels, or areas that need a little extra care.
This is skincare the way it used to be: simple, stable, and rooted in tradition.
Indulge in the regenerative power of real fats and herbs.
• Daily Hand Moisturizer – Massage into dry hands, especially after washing.
• Dry Patches – Apply to elbows, knees, heels, and rough areas that need extra softness.
• Overworked Skin – Ideal for gardeners, gym-goers, and anyone hard on their hands.
• Minor Skin Stress – Can be applied to small scrapes, cracks, or irritated areas to help protect and support the skin barrier.*
• Overnight Repair – Use before bed on hands or feet and allow the rich fats to absorb overnight.
A little goes a long way. Warm a small amount between your fingers and apply to clean, dry skin.
Farming Practices
Clean Food For Your Skin
Your skin is your largest organ, and what you apply to it matters since your skin is porous. It’s in constant contact with your environment, and many of the products used daily contain unstable oils and synthetic, hormone-disrupting ingredients.
While more people are becoming mindful of what they eat (removing preservatives, chemicals, pesticides, and seed oils from their diet) those same ingredients are often still applied directly to the skin.
Before modern skincare, simplicity was the standard. For generations, families relied on rendered animal fats like tallow and lard to nourish, protect, and support skin through every season.
These traditional fats closely resemble the fatty acid composition of our own skin, helping to reinforce the skin barrier, soften dry areas, and reduce moisture loss. Rich in stable saturated and monounsaturated fats, they provide lasting support without the instability of modern formulations.
Unlike seed oils, which are highly prone to oxidation (especially when exposed to heat and light like under the sun!) traditional animal fats offer a more stable, resilient option that works in harmony with your skin. And is what our ancestors have used for centuries!
Clean Fats from Nourish Food Club
We don’t outsource our fats. The tallow used is rendered from beef fat from our trusted Nourish producers: beef raised right, needle-free (no drugs), and fed in alignment with our standards. The lard is rendered pork fat from our trusted Nourish producers: pasture-raised pigs fed our custom-made corn- and soy-free feed, and needle-free.
Toxins tend to accumulate in fat, whether from pesticide-laden feed, environmental exposures, or confined feedlot conditions. That’s why sourcing matters!
The same care that goes into your food now extends to what you bring into your home.
These products also allow us to utilize the whole animal, honoring nose-to-tail principles, reducing waste, and supporting a more regenerative, sustainable food system with humane animal treatment and cleaner food.
