At Darlin’, we hand-render our tallow, sourcing it from local, ethical farms, including wagyu. Our cows are pasture-raised and treated with the utmost care, ensuring the integrity and quality of every product. We prioritize ethical practices and responsible sourcing, so what goes on your skin is always pure, nourishing, and crafted with care.

We meticulously hand-render and purify our tallow through multiple steps to maintain its integrity and nutrients. Over-rendering can lead to rancidity and loss of benefits, so we ensure a balanced approach. Our tallow base carries a faint nutty scent, which is a natural result of our careful process. Each of our formulations is thoughtfully crafted to complement this subtle aroma, preserving the tallow’s nourishing properties while providing a gentle, pleasant experience.

Tallow is a nutrient-rich, natural fat that closely resembles the composition of our skin’s cell membranes. It’s packed with vitamins A, D, E, and K, along with essential fatty acids that support skin health, hydration, and elasticity. Unlike synthetic moisturizers, tallow penetrates deeply, providing lasting moisture without clogging pores. It’s ideal for sensitive, dry, or problematic skin, helping to restore balance and reduce irritation. At Darlin’, our hand-rendered tallow ensures these benefits are preserved for a pure and effective skincare experience.

We choose wagyu tallow because of its superior quality and nutrient profile. Wagyu cattle are known for their marbling, which results in a richer, more nourishing fat ideal for skincare. This tallow is packed with essential fatty acids and vitamins that penetrate deeply, promoting healthy, moisturized skin. By sourcing wagyu tallow from ethical, pasture-raised farms, we ensure our products are both luxurious and responsibly made, delivering a truly premium skincare experience.

Many companies buy bulk tallow from undisclosed sources online, failing to provide details about the cattle breed, the type of fat used, or the conditions these animals face. There’s no guarantee of ethical treatment, nor do they disclose the animals’ diet—leaving questions like whether GMO grass is involved unanswered. At Darlin’, we ensure transparency by sourcing wagyu tallow from local, pasture-raised farms where animals are treated humanely and fed a natural, non-GMO diet, guaranteeing a premium and ethical product.
