I Used Beef Tallow As Moisturizer For 2 Weeks, And Here's How It Went
So many of the traditional skincare and makeup products that women use are full of endocrine-disrupting chemicals and ingredients. I decided to swap in my face moisturizer for beef tallow. Here's how it went.
When I first heard of the idea of using beef tallow on your skin as moisturizer, I couldn't help but feel a little nauseous. It was a foreign concept to me, especially because at the time I was a skincare and makeup fiend. I used to spend exorbitant amounts of money at Sephora, hoard samples, and mark my calendar for any upcoming sales. But as soon a I learned how many endocrine disruptors are in the everyday products we know and love, I decided to slow down on the skincare I was buying myself. For a while, I tried to go for the "clean" products, but I quickly learned that just because something says "clean" on the label doesn't necessarily mean it's completely free of toxins and chemicals.
