About this product

A whipped tallow and shea body butter that absorbs without a film. The everyday TALO body product, the one you reach for without thinking.

Velvet Body Butter is light and airy, whipped from grass-fed suet tallow and golden shea butter. Both deliver the kind of lipids skin is already built from, which is why tallow-based products absorb rather than sit on the surface. Raw Manuka honey at UMF 20+ works alongside them; jojoba and coconut carry it in; a touch of beeswax seals without weight. It is waterless, so every application is active ingredient rather than the 70 to 90 percent water a conventional lotion sells you. Lightly scented with vanilla, citrus and lavender.

Who this is for

  • You want an all-over body moisturizer that is not a bottle of water and emulsifier
  • Dry Valley air and hard water leave your skin tight after every shower
  • You want to cut seed oils and synthetics from your skincare without giving up something that feels nice
  • Sensitive skin that does well with tallow but wants something lighter than a balm

How to use

Scoop a little, warm between your palms and smooth over damp skin after a shower. It melts on contact. Use daily, head to toe.

Ingredients: grass-fed suet tallow, golden shea butter, raw Manuka honey (UMF 20+), jojoba oil, coconut oil, beeswax, vanilla, citrus and lavender. 8 oz (170 g) in violet glass.

TALO is Frontier Organics' own tallow skincare line, made in small batches in Modesto from the same grass-fed, grass-finished suet we sell raw at the counter.
