What Vitamins Are in Tallow, and Why Do They Matter?

Tallow isn’t just fat - it’s a nutrient-dense skincare powerhouse.

Grass-fed beef tallow contains four essential, fat-soluble vitamins that your skin can actually use:

  • Vitamin A – Promotes cell turnover and collagen production
  • Vitamin D3 – Calms inflammation and supports immunity
  • Vitamin E – Protects against oxidative damage and dryness
  • Vitamin K2 – Supports elasticity and may help with discoloration or scarring

What makes these vitamins special in tallow is bioavailability. That means they’re delivered in a natural fat matrix - the way your body expects to receive them. Unlike synthetic vitamins, suspended in water or alcohol, these nutrients absorb deeply and stay active.

Most skincare products add these vitamins in isolated, lab-made forms. VAER skips the synthetics and lets the tallow do what it’s always done: nourish, protect, and repair.
