Beef tallow on your face? Let’s talk.
The pitch: it’s “natural” and “just like your skin’s oil.” The reality: it’s animal fat, and there’s very little good research showing it does anything for skin.
Your skin barrier is built from ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids. Tallow isn’t a ceramide moisturizer, and it can clog pores, especially if you’re acne-prone. Purity and quality also vary a lot from product to product.
“Natural” doesn’t mean better. A simple ceramide moisturizer, daily SPF, and a gentle cleanser will do more for your skin.
