I know this vid is old, but I’ve been binging ur vids on my journey to clearing toxins, and beating ms so I can walk again. One day I will have energy to make my own, but for now I just purchased a full set off products from ur link. Can’t wait to start using them! Thank you for the information and knowledge u have provided me, thru ur vids, on my quest to a new life chapter. Much love!! ❤❤❤
I just made this and it is so nice. I haven’t used it on my face, but put some of the leftover in the bowl on my arms and legs. I used rose eo It was so easy and came out so nice ! Thank you, Marissa
Im so happy with this video. I’ve watched many natural moisturizer videos, and most of the ingredients are things I’ve never heard before and aren’t available locally for me. But this recipe is so easy and a great base for a moisturizer. Thank you!
Made this recipe last night, this morning i woke up it settled all the way down my 2oz shot glass jar. i applied it on my hands, it is so rich and creamy. A few minutes later after i applied onto my hands, my crack (where it was bleeding) went away shortly and it stays on my hands (not greasy kind, the smoothness stays) even after i wash my hands. Can't wait to try to apply on my face tonight when i go to bed. Love your recipes.
Making this next! LOVE your videos! Have made a few of your natural products, LOVE THEM ALL! We love the tallow lotion, toothpaste, magnesuim lotion and lip balm in my house so much! Thank you for such wonderful videos!
I started having really bad skin , and desperately need my face to look better , my husband recommended tallow, didn’t believe him until now ahahahha so I’m exited to try , will be making this recipe ASAP and will update 🙏🏽
Just found your channel & I’m so excited to learn more. I’m new to lessening the PUFAS I consume. Your content is so concise yet thorough. Thank you! 🙌
I finally subscribed! Sorry about that, I have watch a few of your videos and just realized I didn’t sub. Great videos you are very easy to listen too. I just started using sheep tallow and hopefully will have lanolin soon as well.
Thank you so much for making this great content. I've been making your Tallo, coconut oil, olive oil soap and your tallow balm with olive and jojoba oils, both with sweet orange EO as I'm highly sensitive to fragrances and even some EOs including lavender sadly. I've been giving these away to friends and family and they are in love, as am I. It seems that my crow's feats lines are flattening out. My skin feels and looks amazing! I'm excited to try this new recipe.
Hi! I've been watching ur videos for a very long time and really love them very much. Now i forced myself to give a try to one of urs tallow balm recipes. But am confused about the measurements as I also want to use castor oil with it because of it countless benefits. So kindly help me to measure oils accurately. For one cup of tallow, 1/4 cup of sweet almond oil, 30 to 40 drops of lavender oil, how much castor oil should i use? kindly tell in tablespoons. Is adding 2 tablespoons of castor oil a good idea or not? Anxiously waiting for ur kind reply.
Thank you for this. I've bought a bunch of stuff from your store and love the products especially the soap bars. I'm making some face cream right now but I'll leave the rest to you. I love the lemon chap stick sample I got and will definitely be getting more.
Hi there, im new to this and I would really appreciate if you guided further on how to use this wonderful products. Im struggling with few different issues all over my body, hesd, face etc. How often would you use and how would you mix the skin care routine as in, when to do the cleanse, when to use the scrub, how often , etc etc.... Thank you
Love the video and your great presentation. I just doubt it’s for me. I developed adult acne years ago and all the oils frighten me. I’m still doing research on the dos and don’ts giving I’ve never had trouble skin until now. Thanks for sharing.
Hi, I am a new subscriber to your channel, love the way you preformed everything in this video! I have sensitive skin especially on the face so I am considering in making my own skincare moisturizer cleanser. Would it be ok to mix together any of the essential oils you used?
How to make this recipe without tallow? Can I use shea butter instead of tallow? I’m a vegan and I would like to make something vegan? I like your recipe.
Not alot of info on how this could be used to help acne. It's so rich that its seems like it could cause breakouts. Do you have some additives that you could add to this recipe to address problematic skin? Otherwise it looks Amazing:)
It seems funny at first, but tallow actually contains a lot of nutrients that help heal and prevent acne. (Personal experience here, as well as hearing from so many others!) It's antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and provides everything to heal and rebuild skin. The key is to not use too much, a little goes a long ways!
I was able to get some beef fat to render but it is definitely not the good leaf fat… still trying to get rid of the burger smell, but wondered if I would use less liquid oil as it seems very soft at room temperature?
What am I doing wrong if my whipped tallow is separating after it sits for a few days? What causes it to do that? And does a different oil like jajoba oil have a different texture after whipping than olive oil does?
Hi Marissa, in the above recipe can magnesium be added? and if so, how much would you recommend? I just love your recipes and channel. Keep up the good work.
I bought tallow that was already rendered/cleaned (not sure the right word lol but its not the fat that I had to break down myself) from a local butcher. I melted it down in a big pot, added lots of water and some salt and simmered it for an hour. Put it in the fridge to allow it to harder, removed the impurities from the bottom and repeated the process 3 times. The tallow is very white and clean looking but still has a faint smell. Am I doing something wrong or is this normal? Also I love your channel! Been binge watching for days! ❤️ thanks for all the great info!
Hi Marissa, enjoyed this video a lot. Thank you for making tallow my everday routine. I watched all your videos about tallow and made my own lip balm, natural deodorant and facial cream. Unfortunately I can't get 100% grass fed tallow, do you think the ordinary one will still do the job? By the way I use the tallow that surrounds the belly, not the one attached to the meat.Thanx in advance
Thank you, I'm so glad! Yes, you can use non 100% grass fed tallow, and it will still have some very good benefits, just not quite as high amounts of the nutrients. Yes, the fat that is in the belly is the best 😊
I would like to try a tallow face cream but I can’t find it anywhere, so I’d have to make it myself. The problem is that I can’t find tallow either. I can only find lard. Would it be the same with lard?
Marissa, thank you for this amazing recipe! I used tallow, infused jojoba Oil, Geranium EO, Rosemary EO, and Carrot Seed EO. I must say that it smells AMAZING!! I must ask... does it need to be refrigerated?
Thanks! My particular skin doesn't need anything on those days. I'm sure that will change over time, though! Everybody is different, so you have to see what works for you :)
This is my first time making it myself but it’s super soft like a soft whip cream kind of, but how do I make it thicker? Or is it maybe because it’s at room temp store and is too warm?? Help me please!!! Lol I I mixed jojoba oil but maybe I added too much oil? Or is this normal??
Hi Merissa I found your channel and I also Make saop with tallow. Your videos are very simple te follow and like it. Ky question to you is can I put coconut oil in the moisturizer with tallow?
I noticed you mentioned to dilute the oil but you did not demonstrate that process. I am attempting to do that myself but I am scared that I am not doing it right! 😮 PLEASE HELP!!! I have been trying to ask questions since last week but no one is answering me!😮
Which liquid oil would you recommend for acne? I understand it’s a gut-related issue, but I’m also 16 so it may have to do with hormones + my constant picking of my acne right before it heals. And would you recommend that I skip an essential oil if I have sensitive skin? Or is it fine to use? Thank you! I love your content so much :)
Thank you so much! Great question. It's an individual thing, but jojoba oil can be really helpful for acne prone skin. As for the essential oil, you can try a light dilution, and see how it goes. If it seems too much, you can leave it out. Hope that helps!
I'm so glad! Great question. The carrot seed oil lends a bit of SPF, but some people may will want to add sunscreen. I personally try to eat an antioxidant rich diet and use shade/hats, etc. and only use sunscreen when I really need it. Hope that helps!
What are the two oils you used carrot oil but what was the other Carrier oil ? And where do I get your essential oils thank you I love learning from you
Hi! This has nothing to do with the vídeo, but i just wanted to ask. I have been using body cream for my face my whole life. Is it bad for your skin to use body cream in the face? Ty!!
Our face skin has very different needs than the rest of the body. I wouldn't recommend you to use the same except the one you use for the body is organic and very very gentle.
I want to make my own moisturizer and I’m wondering if I can just use beef tallow and essential oil without the liquid oil? Do I have to use liquid oil?
Tallow is very shelf stable at room temperature. As long as there is no water in tallow and it doesn't get contaminated, the shelf life is around 6 months to a year or longer. If you want to store it longer yet, or just want to be on the safe side, I recommend keeping it in the fridge or freezer. It will last months in the fridge and forever in the freezer. The same for tallow balm. Hope this helps!
I just wanted to give you a heads up that Sulu is not a reputable company. I am also a small business owner making skincare and have researched companies thoroughly, and they are known for selling altered oils and oils that are not what they're labeled to be. They are actually not far from me and I hoped to use them and save on shipping by picking up orders, but they're no good. Just found your channel and love your content, but I recognized the bottle label and saw you linked it on Amazon so I felt I needed to mention what I've found about the company.
Hey Jessica, I also had a bad experience with sulu. If you wouldn’t mind sharing, what company would you recommend as a reputable source for grass-fed tallow?
Hi love What am i doing wrong if my whipped recipe hardens afterwards? Am i not wipping it long enoug or not en enough oil or what? Please help me. Thank you💙
It sounds like you have very nice quality, hard tallow! If that happens, I find it works well to use more of the liquid oil. That will keep it softer. Hope that helps!
Yes. Here's the directions: Melt tallow until liquid. Add liquid oil and stir to combine. Allow mixture to chill in freezer until just barely solidified, not liquid and soft enough to easily whip. Whip with hand mixer until fluffy. Add essential oils and whip to combine. Store in a glass jar.
It’s hard to describe, but if you follow her purification process, you will see how good your tallow really is based on how much impurities come out of it.The tallow I bought pretty much had no impurities come out so I’m guessing mine was a pretty good batch.
