Soap Ingredients
Tallow
Beef tallow is a purified fat that is gently rendered from the fatty tissue of a cow.
Deeply moisturizingTallow is uniquely beneficial for our skin because about 50% of its composition comes from saturated fat. Saturated fat comprises roughly 50% of our cell membranes, so tallow is able to prevent dryness at the cellular level without suffocating the skin's barrier.
Rich in A, D, E, K and omega-3’sTallow contains an abundance of naturally occurring fat soluble vitamins (A, D, E and K), omega 3 fatty acids, and anti-inflammatory conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).
Readily acceptable to skinTallow and our natural sebum (our body’s oil) share many of the same lipids (fats) in similar concentrations making it readily acceptable to our skin. In fact the literal translation of tallow in Latin is “sebum."
Organic and grass-fedOur tallow comes from USDA certified organic grass-fed cows, which means they are raised without GMO’s, pesticides or other harmful chemicals. Because toxins are stored in fat, it’s extremely important to use a clean source of animal fat.
SustainableTallow is sustainable because it comes from parts of a cow, that when raised for consumption, would have otherwise been discarded.
Shea Butter
Shea butter is a fat that is extracted from the nut of the African shea tree.
Anti-inflammatoryShea butter contains several anti-inflammatory molecules, including triterpene esters which have been proven to reduce skin irritation and inflammation.
Soothes dry skinShea butter soothes and promotes healing for dry skin, sunburns, cuts and scrapes.
Rosehip seed oil
Rosehip seed oil is an oil that is extracted from the seeds of the rose bush.
Rich in essential fatty acidsRosehip seed oil is rich in essential fatty acids, specifically linoleic and linolenic acid, which can help improve skin barrier, aid in wound healing and improve inflammatory skin conditions like eczema, acne and psoriasis.
Anti-agingRosehip seed oil contains trans-retinoic acid, a natural precursor of vitamin A, which can speed up cellular turnover and improve the production of collagen.
HealingRosehip seed oil is extremely beneficial for scars, burns and premature aging. Can also reduce hyperpigmentation.
Non greasyRosehip seed oil absorbs easily into the skin without leaving a greasy residue.
Cold-pressedOur rosehip seed oil is cold-pressed which means it’s not heated above 122 degrees. This allows for the natural enzymes to stay intact.
