It’s made for exactly that kind of skin. The soothing aloe and bisabolol and the grass-fed tallow base are chosen to feel calming and comfortable on dry, tight, easily-irritated skin, and to leave it feeling soft and looking glowing rather than grumpy. It’s a gentle cosmetic serum, not a medicine, so for any diagnosed skin condition please check with your GP. As with any new product, patch test a small area first.
No — it’s built to be gentle. We use a soft, non-irritating form of Vitamin C and soothing botanicals like aloe and bisabolol, in a tallow base that absorbs comfortably. As with any new product, patch test a small area first.
No — it’s lightweight and fast-absorbing. Tallow’s fatty-acid profile mirrors your skin’s own oils, so it sinks in comfortably rather than sitting on top or leaving a film.
Morning or night — a drop or two on clean skin. Follow with your tallow balm or moisturiser if you like. It’s made for gentle, everyday use.
