How it is made
A small family business in Poland, making everything by hand in small batches.
Tallow is close in structure to the lipids your own skin makes, which is why it absorbs instead of sitting on top. We start with tallow from a documented supplier.
Our tallow is suet, the firm fat that sits around the kidneys. It makes up most of every jar and decides how the cream feels, which is why we source it from Polish farms.
Naturally present in tallow, these fat-soluble vitamins help support your skin barrier.
The jar smells faintly of what it is made from, and nothing was added to change that. If scent is the thing your skin reacts to, there is none of it here.
No added preservatives, and nothing that does not earn its place. Every ingredient is here for a reason.

Made by hand
Small batches, in Poland, by a family business.
What to expect
Two ingredients, two different jobs. Beef tallow holds water in the skin, sweet almond oil nourishes and smooths it.
Day 1
Beef tallow leaves a layer on the skin that limits water loss. Chapped, badly dried patches feel relief from the first use.
Week 1
Oleic and linoleic acids from almond oil smooth rough skin and restore its suppleness. Elbows, hands and feet stop feeling rough.
Week 4
The skin barrier is rebuilt, so skin dries out less often and handles wind, cold and dry air better. You apply the cream less often than at the start.
Two ingredients for the whole family.
What's inside
Ingredient 1 of 2
Tallow
The fatty acid profile of tallow is close to that of human sebum, which is why skin takes to it. Oleic, stearic and palmitic acids build the skin's lipid barrier. It also carries vitamins A, D, E and K.
What it brings
Leaves a layer on the skin that limits water loss. Chapped, badly dried skin feels relief from the first use.
Ingredient 2 of 2
Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil
One of the gentlest plant oils there is. Rich in oleic (Omega-9) and linoleic (Omega-6) acids plus vitamins A and E. Gentle enough that children's care oils are made from it.
What it brings
Smooths rough skin and restores its suppleness. Seals the skin barrier and protects against wind, cold and dry air.
Before you buy
Yes. There are two ingredients in the jar: beef tallow and cold-pressed sweet almond oil. No perfume, no essential oils, no preservatives, which are what a child's delicate skin reacts to most often. The shorter the ingredient list, the fewer things that can go wrong.
Pharmacy emollients are usually water-based, which is why they need preservatives. This cream is anhydrous, so it does not need them. It replaces lipids directly and stays on the skin longer.
It melts on contact with skin and absorbs within a few minutes. Apply a thin layer to damp skin straight after a bath, when it spreads best.
On the face, hands, elbows, knees, feet and anywhere skin is dry or rough. One jar for the whole family, adults and children alike.
Sweet almond oil carries vitamins A, E and D plus unsaturated fatty acids. It nourishes, softens and supports the regeneration of dry, irritated skin. Together with tallow it forms a layer that protects against water loss.
