Article: What Makes Tallow Better Than Seed Oils or Coconut Oil?

What Makes Tallow Better Than Seed Oils or Coconut Oil?

It comes down to what your skin actually needs - and what it doesn’t.

Unlike seed oils (like sunflower, safflower, or grapeseed), tallow is rich in stable, saturated fats that resist oxidation. That means it won’t go rancid in your cabinet, your gym bag, or on your face. It holds up to heat, light, and time - without breaking down into skin-damaging byproducts.

Coconut oil can sit on the skin and clog pores, but tallow mimics the structure of the human sebum. It absorbs quickly, nourishes deeply, and doesn’t interfere with your skin’s natural oil production.

Plus, it delivers fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K2 in their natural, bioavailable form - something no seed or synthetic oil can do on its own.

Tallow works because it belongs.  Your skin knows what to do with it.
