How to Use Whipped Tallow Cream: A Simple Guide
In short: whipped tallow cream is a rich, unscented moisturiser made with grass-fed beef tallow. Use a small amount on clean, dry skin, and patch test first. This guide explains what it is, how to use it, where it fits in your routine and what to know before you try it.
What is whipped tallow cream?
Tallow is a rendered animal fat. In skincare it is used as a rich base for moisturisers, and it is often whipped into a lighter, airier texture so it spreads more easily. The MALANICH whipped tallow cream is made with grass-fed beef tallow. It is unscented and comes in a 4oz size.
What makes it different from a regular cream?
- Rich feel: it is a nourishing, cushiony moisturiser.
- Whipped texture: airy and easy to spread, so it does not feel heavy or sticky.
- Unscented: no added fragrance to worry about.
- Multi-purpose: made for the face, hands and body.
How to use it
- Start with clean, dry skin.
- Take a small amount, about the size of a pea for the face, and warm it between your fingers.
- Massage it gently into the area until absorbed.
- Use daily or as needed, especially on dry areas.
