About Us

Hi, my name is Kelley. I started Aspen & Tallow about 2 years ago when I started researching ways to relieve eczema on my daughters skin. I started to notice the lotion and creams we were putting on her body and ours contained chemicals that were actually harming us, more than they were helping. When I started researching Tallow, I discovered so much more than what I imagined. Tallow has been the number one product we use in our household since! This was a passion project, turned into small business. I absolutely love researching ways we can live a lower tox lifestyle. Tallow will forever be my first love of all things natural, thank you for supporting our small business. I hope you love our product as much as we do! 

What is Tallow?

Tallow is a rendered form of animal fat, typically derived from cattle or sheep. At Aspen & Tallow we use organic grassfed and finished beef tallow. 

Tallow is often considered beneficial for the skin because it closely resembles the fatty acids found in human skin.

Tallow is rich in saturated fats, including oleic acid, palmitic acid, and stearic acid, which are naturally present in the human skin barrier. 

These fatty acids help nourish, protect, and repair the skin, making tallow a great option for moisturizing and promoting skin health. 

Additionally, the vitamins A, D, E, and K in tallow support cell regeneration and protect against environmental stressors. 

This similarity to the skin's natural composition helps it absorb easily and maintain a healthy skin barrier
