Dear friend,
Most skincare brands have a dirty little secret:
They’re not designed to heal your skin long-term. They’re designed to keep you buying.
It's like light bulbs—they don’t burn out by accident; they’re built that way.
Skincare is no different. Big companies value profit over your health, filling their products with synthetic chemicals and short-term solutions that leave your skin dependent, sensitive, and damaged over time.
It's a vicious cycle—and it’s time to break it.
I had already spent nearly a decade looking for non-toxic, effective skincare and was ultra-picky about what I put onto my sensitive skin.
But when my first child was born, I wanted to know exactly what was in our care products more than ever.
I was tired of reading labels full of chemicals I couldn’t pronounce and never being satisfied with the results that clean beauty brands delivered.
Then one day, while cooking with tallow, I remembered hearing that it was great for your skin. So I scooped some out of my jar and put it on my face. Glamorous, I know.
And you know what? My skin LOVED IT.
Even 12 hours later, my face was glowing, deeply hydrated, and super soft.
Where had this been all my life?!
That’s when I started digging into the history of tallow and discovered that it’s been used as a natural skincare solution for centuries—even by Cleopatra herself!
Born in My Kitchen
Inspired by what I learned—and what I had just experienced—I started making my own simple, tallow-based products right in my kitchen.
The results blew my mind:
My baby’s cradle cap disappeared after just one use!
My pores started shrinking (and I had tried
everything
to achieve this with no success).
My skin looked youthful and glowy again. Blotchiness, sun spots, and premature aging- Gone.
Horrible sunburns vanished overnight.
Bleeding diaper rashes completely healed in under 6 hours!
My skin felt balanced, nourished, and radiant—without the chemical overload.
I shared these products with friends and family, and they started seeing the same results.
That’s how Tried & True Tallow was born—a small, family-driven brand with one mission:
To get back to our roots and out of the laboratory.
Why Tried & True Tallow Is Different
Our products are handmade in small batches, using time-tested, locally sourced, organic ingredients that work with your skin—not against it. Here's how we’re different:
No Toxins, Just Purity:
Every jar and bottle is free from synthetic chemicals, artificial fragrances, and harmful preservatives.
Long-Term Care:
We focus on nourishing your skin and supporting its natural ability to heal, so it gets better with time.
Small-Batch Craftsmanship:
Made with love and care, right here in Tyler, Texas.
Big brands want you to believe their products are the only option.
But nature had it right all along
.
