LITTLE VALLEY TALLOW Skincare Co.

Frankincense is made for those who prefer minimal formulations and intentional care. With grass-fed tallow as its base and frankincense essential oil as the sole botanical, this balm offers targeted nourishment while remaining gentle and grounding.

A simple, focused tallow balm crafted with just two ingredients to support balanced, clear, and resilient skin.

At the heart of this formula is grass-fed, grass-finished tallow, rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K and naturally compatible with the skin’s own oils. It helps soften, protect, and support the skin barrier without clogging pores.

Frankincense Essential Oil, often referred to as the King of Oils, is traditionally valued for its purifying and skin-balancing qualities. It helps support a calm, clear complexion and is especially well-suited for skin that feels congested, reactive, or mature—while offering a warm, earthy aroma that feels grounding and restorative.

Earthy in scent.

Handcrafted in the Okanagan with love

FAQ

What is tallow skincare?

Tallow is a traditional skincare ingredient made from rendered beef fat. Its composition is remarkably similar to our skin’s natural oils, called sebum, which allows it to absorb easily and support the skin barrier rather than disrupt it.

Why do you use grass-fed, grass-finished tallow?

I use grass-fed, grass-finished beef suet (kidney fat only) because it is the purest and most nutrient-rich form of tallow. It comes from healthy cows and is free from antibiotics and hormones, resulting in a cleaner, higher-quality skincare product.

Are your products safe for babies and children?

Yes. Many of my products — especially Unscented — are gentle enough for babies and children. If you’re unsure, I always recommend starting with an unscented option and doing a small patch test first.

Can tallow clog pores?

Tallow is non-comedogenic for most people and closely mimics the skin’s natural sebum. Many customers with acne-prone or sensitive skin find tallow helps calm and balance their skin rather than clogging it.

What does tallow smell like?

Tallow has a very mild, natural scent. Essential oils are added to select products intentionally and gently for additional benefit, and add additional scent, not to overpower it. Unscented products contain no essential oils and retain a soft, natural aroma from the ingredients.

Do your products contain fragrance or synthetic ingredients?

No.

All products are free from:

• Synthetic or artificial fragrance

• Fillers

• Preservatives

• Artificial additives

Any scent comes naturally from essential oils or from the ingredients themselves.

How should I store my products?

Store at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Because these products are made without preservatives, temperature extremes may change texture but not effectiveness.

Do your products have a shelf life?

When stored properly, all products have a shelf life of 12–18 months. Even then, you can always stick it in the fridge! Always use clean hands to avoid introducing moisture into the jar.

What skin types are your products suitable for?

Little Valley Tallow products are suitable for all skin types, including:

• Sensitive skin

• Dry or dehydrated skin

• Reactive or eczema-prone skin

• Maturing skin

Many customers turn to tallow after struggling with irritation from conventional skincare.

How do I know which product is right for me?

Each product page includes detailed descriptions to help guide you. If you’re unsure, start with:

• Unscented for sensitive or reactive skin

• Frankincense for acne or facial care

• Skin Deep for very dry or cracked areas

Can I use your products on my face and body?

Yes. All of my products are formulated to be versatile and can be used head to toe, unless otherwise noted in the product description.

Where are your products made?

All products are handcrafted by me, in small batches, in the Okanagan, British Columbia, with care, love and intention.

How long does shipping take?

Orders are typically processed within 2–5 business days. Shipping times vary depending on location. Once your order ships, you’ll receive tracking information.

Do you offer refunds or returns?
