our mission
We are here to help families find real, lasting relief from eczema. After months of trying to soothe our own son’s itchy, inflamed skin, we discovered how powerful pure tallow can be in calming irritation and supporting the skin’s natural barrier. That experience shaped our mission to formulate skincare specifically for eczema-prone skin, designed to support healing, calm flare ups, and restore compromised skin without triggering irritation. Each product is handcrafted with pure grass-fed and finished tallow and high-quality organic ingredients chosen for their effectiveness and tolerance, delivering maximum therapeutic benefit while remaining gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin. Our goal is to give families products they can truly trust and the same relief we once searched for.

Frequently Asked Questions
Tallow is simply the rendered fat from cows, but not all tallow is the same. We use only suet tallow from 100% grass-fed and grass-finished cows because it is the purest and most nutrient-dense form available. For eczema-prone and sensitive skin, these nutrients matter. Suet tallow is naturally rich in vitamins A, D3, E, and K2, which are essential for skin barrier repair and reducing inflammation. It also contains B vitamins like B1, B4, and B12 that support cellular renewal, something eczema-damaged skin needs on a deeper level.
What makes suet tallow especially powerful for eczema is how closely it resembles our skin’s own sebum and matches the saturated fat profile of a healthy skin barrier. This allows it to lock in moisture, prevent moisture from escaping the skin, and help rebuild the compromised barrier that eczema disrupts. Suet tallow also offers a wide range of fatty acids, including CLA and omegas 3, 6, 7, and 9, along with naturally soothing stearic acid. Together, these nutrients calm irritation, reduce flare-ups, deeply nourish dry patches, and support skin regeneration.
This is why we use suet tallow. It is gentle, effective, and biologically compatible with eczema-prone skin, helping the skin heal naturally from the inside out.
At Gentle Tallow Co, our tallow balms are designed with one clear purpose: to bring real relief to eczema-prone and sensitive skin. While they are versatile enough for daily use from head to toe, every formula is crafted to support the unique needs of irritated, inflamed, and barrier-damaged skin. Use it as your daily facial moisturizer, an all-over body balm, or apply it directly to dry, itchy patches whenever your skin needs extra care.
Our balms are especially beneficial for:
• Eczema flare-ups and chronically dry, irritated skin
• Sensitive skin that reacts to conventional creams
• Itchy, inflamed patches caused by allergies or topical steroid withdrawal
• Chapped lips, cracked hands, and rough areas like elbows and heels
• Baby skin concerns including diaper rash and cradle cap
• Redness, irritation, and compromised skin barriers
• Sunburns and minor burns that need gentle, soothing support
• Post-shave irritation and new tattoos that require clean, simple care
Whether you’re calming a flare-up, managing daily sensitivity, or giving your skin a clean, nourishing moisturizer, our tallow balms are made to simplify your routine and support healthy skin.
We currently offer 4 tallow balms — plus our Tallow Lip Balms — with plans to keep growing our collection.
