NEW TO NATURAL? DON'T WORRY, WE GOT YOU. CHECK OUT THESE HELPFUL TIPS AND TECNHIQUES TO GET THE BEST EXPERIENCE OUT OF YOUR TALLOW BASED BEAUTY PRODUCTS. 

SOAP

To use, get bar wet and work into a lather. Wash and rinse clean. For external use only. Avoid direct contact with eyes. Due to the differences from commercially made products, your skin may experience an adjustment period.  

To ensure your soap bar lasts as long as possible, try these tips between uses:

• Keep soap in a well drained soap dish & avoid direct water spray.
• Keep bar dry between uses.
• Use a washcloth or loofah. This will use less soap and extend the bar's longevity.
• Avoid direct sunlight & store unused soap in a cool, dark place.
• Best if used within one year.

WHIPPED TALLOW BUTTER

To use, we recommend applying directly after a shower or bath onto damp skin. Start with a small amount to avoid greasiness. Add more as needed, focusing on particularly dry areas. Work butter into skin and allow 1-2 minutes to absorb. For external use only. Due to the differences from commercially made products, your skin may experience an adjustment period.

For best results, try these tips with your whipped tallow butter: 

• Store in a cool, dry place and avoid direct sunlight.
  
• If you live in a warmer area, place in the refrigerator to avoid melting and preserve freshness.
• Due to its natural ingredients, separation may occur and is normal.
• If your butter melts or separates, don't panic. Melting and/or separation do not impact product performance. We recommend cooling it down in the refrigerator and giving it a quick stir to reincorporate ingredients.
• When using, make sure your hands are clean and dry.
• Best if used within 6 months.

TALLOW SHAVE SOAP

For best results, we recommend the use of a shave brush

1. Prep Your Brush - Soak your shave brush in warm water for about 30 seconds to a minute to soften the bristles and retain moisture. Shake off the excess water, leaving the brush damp but not dripping.

2. Load the Brush - Swirl the damp brush on the shave soap in circular motions for 20–30 seconds to load the bristles with soap. Apply light pressure to create a pasty, thick lather on the brush.

3. Build the Lather - 

• Option 1: Face Lathering – Apply the loaded brush directly to your wet face using circular motions until a rich lather forms.
• Option 2: Bowl Lathering – Swirl the brush in a shaving tin, bowl or mug, adding small amounts of water as needed, until a creamy, dense lather develops.

4. Apply the Lather - Spread the lather evenly over your face using circular motions, then smooth it out with paintbrush-like strokes for an even coat. Let it sit for a few seconds to soften the hairs.

5. Shave - Use your razor in short, gentle strokes with the grain of your hair for the first pass. Reapply lather and shave against or across the grain if needed for a closer shave.

6. Rinse - Rinse your face with cool water to close the pores. Pat dry and follow up with one of our tallow aftershave lotions, balms or butters to lock in moisture and eliminate red bumps. Rinse your brush thoroughly, shake out excess water, and hang it to dry.

To ensure your tallow shave soap lasts as long as possible, try these tips:

• Avoid direct water spray/standing water in container.
• Keep dry between uses.
• Avoid direct sunlight and excessive heat.
• Best if used within 1 year
