Why Tallow?

As a parent, I continually searched for non-toxic products with fewer chemicals. It appeared that many so-called natural products still contained chemicals with complex names.
Awhile back I discovered the magical properties that can only be found in Tallow. Since then I never looked back, threw out hundreds of dollars worth of other so called moisturizers and never looked back.
Tallow is rich in vitamins A, D, E, K, and fatty acids, effectively preserving moisture, resulting in extra soft skin.
It can help reduce fine lines, speed up healing of cuts, aid acne prone skin, and benefit those with eczema and other skin issues. Tallow is compatible with all skin types.
All products are made in small batches with love here in America.

    "Recently, my mom had a lupus flareup and developed the butterfly rash on her cheeks, nose, and primarily on her hairline and neck. She tried several "clean" products, but they only made things worse. Thankfully, I had a jar of Urban Prairie Calendula Lavender tallow I recently purchased on hand, and within a few days of using it, the difference was incredible. The redness has almost completely disappeared, and it's the only thing that has soothed her skin and reduced the dryness. We are beyond grateful for this product. I'll definitely be ordering more!"

    "Ok, I'm hooked! My family and I love the tallow! My skin feels great and so soft! It's been about a week now and even my husband enjoys it, which says a lot, bc he's picky. One of the most impressive things I've seen, is that it cleared up some of my teenage son's acne. I applied it to his face one night, and the next day, I could see a noticeable difference. We're planning to use it on his back next to help with some acne scaring. I'm definitely going to be ordering another soon."

    "I have very sensitive skin and I've tried many different products but most either don't keep my skin moisturized long enough (as I live in a very dry climate) or irritates it over time. I came along Urban Prairie recently at an event and decided I'd like to give it a try. The fact that it is all natural made me very interested. The owner was very personable, gave me tons of facts about the benefits of tallow and I had to try it. I bought an Unscented jar and used it on my face and hands and wow, my face and hands felt so soft and surprised how long the moisture lasted. I'm so happy to have met her that day as I will forever be buying my tallow through Urban Prairie."
I want to try it!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is tallow, and how is it used in skin care?

Our tallow is sourced from local farms where cows are 100% grass-fed, grass finished without antibiotics, hormones, or mrna injections.

Tallow is the fat surrounding the cow's kidneys, undergoing several rounds of rendering to achieve its cleanest and purest form. All are produced in small batches.

Tallow in skincare is prized for its moisturizing and nourishing qualities. It boasts fatty acids akin to those in human skin, aiding in the restoration and upkeep of the skin's natural barrier. Rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, tallow offers skin-healing and anti-inflammatory properties.

Tallow aids in diminishing fine lines, dry/rough spots, evening out skin tones, and can assist with eczema and other skin issues.

How should tallow-based products be stored and used to maintain their effectivness?

Tallow should be placed in a cool area away from heat or direct sunlight. Excessive heat can cause it to lose its creamy texture and melt.

Should the product melt, use refrigeration to return it to a solid state.

I have sensitive skin, is tallow right for me?

Tallow includes vitamins A, D, E, and K, offering soothing and healing properties for sensitive skin.

Tallow in skincare is minimally processed, reducing the risk of added chemicals or irritants found in synthetic products.

All ingredients you can pronounce.

Suitable for all ages.

It's advisable to perform a small patch test to check for adverse reactions.

How and where do I apply tallow?

A small amount is effective. Remove with your fingertip or back of the nail. Work between your fingers and apply to the face, neck, chest, hands, feet and any dry patches anywhere on the body.
