LITTLE VALLEY TALLOW Skincare Co.
A gently uplifting tallow balm designed to support balanced, hydrated, and radiant skin—on both face and body.
Made with grass-fed tallow, frankincense, and sweet orange essential oils, this balm offers gentle nourishment with a light, naturally bright citrusy scent and a subtle hint of earthiness. It provides daily skin support while feeling fresh, grounding, and uncomplicated.
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 while delivering lasting moisture without heaviness.
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 pairs beautifully with tallow to nourish skin that feels stressed, congested, or mature.
Sweet Orange Essential Oil adds a gentle brightness to the formula. Traditionally valued for its antioxidant and clarifying properties, it helps support skin that looks refreshed and balanced while contributing a naturally light citrus note that feels cheerful without being overpowering.
Naturally bright & earthy scent.
Handcrafted in the Okanagan with love

How to Use
Very little goes a long way. If you ever find it greasy, you're using too much. Use a small amount and gently massage into clean, dry or slightly damp skin as needed.

For the price tag it's pretty similar to cheaper tallows, quite similar to what I already use. It's good but the tag had my hopes a little higher. Thank you though!
Hi Cheyenne, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. I truly appreciate all feedback.
My balms are made in small batches using grass-fed, grass-finished tallow and carefully selected essential oils, which does place them at a different price point than some mass-produced options. That said, I understand that skincare is very personal, and value can feel different for everyone.
I’d genuinely love to learn more about your experience and how you came across my product, whether through a market, local retailer, or another way, so I can better understand expectations and continue improving. You’re always welcome to reach out to me directly.
Thank you again for trying,
Cassandra, Little Valley Tallow
Feels fantastic on the face and smells absolutely amazing. Been using it for about a month and skin looks great and is never dry. Thank you!
Yay! I am so happy you are loving your tallow! Your kind words and support in my little business mean the world!
I used it tonight and absolutely love the texture and how it smells
Is there an expiry date for it??
Do you sell face soap as well
Hi Karen! I am so happy you are loving your tallow! At room temperature your tallow is good for up to a year! And even then you could stick it in the fridge. As for soap, it is definitely on my list of 'to make'!
This is my second purchase of the tallow products. They are great . Consistant quality. I was expecting to get Frankincense and sweet orange and was shipped Sweet Orange and Ylang Ylang. Not a fan of Ylang Ylang but I will used it on my legs where the scent is not strong. I do find your website ordering a bit confusing as it didn't show the other product I reordered but I was able to find it under my past orders. Hope this input helps
Just got my tallow finally and so far so good. My skin feels so soft, glowy and rejuvenated. Waiting a bit longer to see if I get any breakouts from it, as I’m seeing mixed reviews on tallow online but I haven’t experience anything negative at all so far! Hope it stays this way!! The tallow is very scented (natural) with the frankinsence and sweet orange but I do like it. Even in the morning my skin feels so moisturized from applying it the night before
Oh Jessica, I am so happy you are loving your tallow so far! Thank you for your kind words
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?
Because these are personal care products, returns are handled on a case-by-case basis. If there is an issue with your order, please reach out through the Contact page and we will find a solution.
