Our Story
It Started With One Jar for My Mom
I didn't set out to build a skincare company. I set out to help my mom. After watching her struggle with dry, irritated skin and waste money on products packed with ingredients she couldn't pronounce, I used my background in science to formulate something better, something with clean ingredients that actually worked.
That single jar of grass-fed and finished tallow balm became Tallowbourn, a family-owned brand now trusted by thousands of families across the country. Every product is made in the USA with natural ingredients you can actually read. Once people try it, they never go back.
"What started as a way to help my mom has become a mission to help others experience the same benefits of healthy and effective skincare."
Dr. Dave, Founder

"I rarely leave reviews but I have to for this. The ingredients are straight-up and natural. It goes on smooth, not greasy at all, and a little goes a long way. My skin feels hydrated and looks healthier. It’s our family’s go-to - my wife and I use it daily and also apply it to our 5-year-old and 8-month-old every day post-bath"
Verified Buyer
"I’ve tried many different skincare products. Dr. Dave’s are the best on the market, hands down. I recommend the whole package: lip balm, soaps, and the tallow balm."
Verified Buyer
"LOVE this product so much. Started using this lip balm after I was on chemo and NOTHING would work for me. This balm makes it so I only have to apply once a day compared to 15x for other products and it’s all natural and amazing. Thank you to the creators of this product."

Got Questions? We've Got Answers.
Everything you need to know about tallow skincare and Tallowbourn.
What is tallow and why is it in skincare?
Tallow is rendered fat from grass-fed cattle - used for skincare for thousands of years before the modern beauty industry existed. It works because tallow’s fatty acid profile (palmitic, stearic, and oleic acids) closely mirrors the oils your skin naturally produces. Your skin recognizes it and absorbs it deeply, rather than just sitting on top like synthetic moisturizers. Every Tallowbourn product is formulated by Dr. Dave, a PhD Scientist, to use this natural compatibility.
Will tallow products make my skin greasy or cause breakouts?
It's a common concern. Our tallow balm absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue. The key is to not over-apply. A little goes a long way. Because tallow is biocompatible with your skin, it absorbs at a cellular level rather than coating the surface. Hundreds of customers with oily and sensitive skin report great results. As one reviewer put it: "Goes on smooth, not greasy at all, and a little goes a long way."
Does it smell like beef?
No. Our scented products (Lavender Lemon, Vanilla Spearmint, Sweet Orange, Peppermint) have pleasantly light scent that customers love. Our unscented products have a very mild, neutral scent - as one customer said, “Actually true to their word, there is truly no smell.” Over 2,000 five-star reviews and the overwhelming feedback on scent is positive.
What makes Tallowbourn different from other tallow brands?
Three things. First, every product is formulated by Dr. Dave, a PhD Scientist - not a marketing team. Rigorous testing went into each formulation to get it just right and to make them highly effective. Second, we are passionate about educating our customers on all aspects of health and wellness, not just skincare. We want all our potential customers to thrive in life! Third, we use only 100% grass-fed beef tallow sourced in the USA, combined with premium ingredients like jojoba oil, shea butter and beeswax. Customers consistently tell us they’ve tried other tallow brands and came back to Tallowbourn.
Is tallow skincare safe for sensitive skin?
Yes. Tallow is one of the most gentle moisturizers available, free from additives, parabens, petroleum, and common irritants. We offer unscented versions of our lip balm and tallow balm for fragrance sensitivities, and our Sensitive Skin Deodorant is baking soda-free (using magnesium instead) specifically for people who react to baking soda. Customers with a wide range of skin sensitivities have shared positive experiences.
Does the natural deodorant actually work?
Our Extra Strength Deodorant provides 24+ hours of odor protection according to customer reviews - tested by warehouse workers, athletes, gym-goers, new moms, and people in Florida heat. If you have sensitive skin that reacts to baking soda, our Sensitive Skin formula uses magnesium for the same protection without irritation.
How long do the products last?
Longer than you'd expect. Lip balm 3-packs last most customers 2-3 months. The tallow balm lasts several months depending on use. Some customers use the 1oz as a spot moisturizer and it lasts months. Others use it head to toe after every shower, and for that the 4oz is the better option. Soap bars last several weeks with daily use. Deodorant sticks last 1-2 months. Customers frequently say they last significantly longer than conventional alternatives.
Can I use tallow balm on my face?
Absolutely - that’s what most customers use it for. It works as a face moisturizer, hand cream, body balm, cuticle oil, and lip treatment. Many customers have replaced their entire multi-step routine (serums, eye creams, night creams, moisturizers) with a single jar. Suitable for all skin types including oily and sensitive.
Are your products safe for children and babies?
Yes. Our products use simple, natural ingredients. Many parents use our tallow balm and lip balm on their children, including infants. One family applies it to their 5-year-old and 8-month-old daily after bath time. Unscented options are best for the youngest family members.
What is your return policy?
We stand behind every product. If you’re not completely satisfied, contact us and we’ll make it right. Dave personally responds to questions and concerns. We’d rather you try our products risk-free than wonder “what if.”
Do you offer bundles or subscriptions?
Yes to both. We offer bundle options (e.g. Starter Pack, Lip + Tallow Balm Bundle, Unscented Bundle) that save money versus buying individually. Subscribe & Save: 1-2 units save 10%, 3+ save 15%, plus free shipping - pause, skip, or cancel anytime.
Where are your products made?
Every product is made at an FDA-registered facility here in the USA. We’re family-owned and Dr. Dave developed every formula. When you buy from Tallowbourn, you’re supporting a small American business.
