Irish Beef Tallow

IRISH GRASS FED & FINISHED, PASTURE-RAISED BEEF TALLOW.

WHY BEEF TALLOW?

Tallow has been used in cosmetics for over 5000 years due to its high compatibility with our skin. It is the most effective natural moisturiser. Tallow is full of vitamins A, B12, D, E, and K. A unique combination found only in animal-based products.

For our tallow we use the highest quality beef suet from grass-fed & finished, pasture-raised Irish beef. Sourced locally & raised traditionally on local farms using regenerative agriculture practices. This means no grains, antibiotics or hormones are given to cows but also no pesticides and synthetic fertilisers in the soil. Cows raised as nature intended.

SOURCED FROM:

Local Irish farms where cattle graze freely on lush Irish pastures.

USED FOR:

More than 5000 years in face creams, soaps, deodorants, body creams...

HOW WE PROCESS IT?

At Ancestral Cosmetics, we clean and melt all our tallow in-house. We use only fresh suet, the purest fat from around the kidneys, sourced from Irish grass-fed, pasture-raised cows. Our full-time team hand-trims each piece to remove impurities before slowly rendering it in-house at low temperatures to preserve all the natural benefits of tallow.

This creates clean, skincare-grade tallow without the beefy smell or chemical treatments often found in industrial alternatives. This hands-on, high-integrity process ensures that every jar contains only the finest tallow, crafted specifically for skin.

Organic Jojoba Oil

PURE, COLD-PRESSED, ORGANIC GOLDEN JOJOBA OIL

WHY JOJOBA OIL?

Jojoba oil is a uniquely skin-compatible oil that closely mimics the natural sebum your body produces.

Rich in vitamins E and B, along with essential fatty acids, it helps regulate moisture, balance oil production, and support a healthy skin barrier without clogging pores.

Its naturally antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties make it ideal for calming breakouts, soothing irritation, and restoring softness to dry or sensitive skin.

Because it’s technically a wax ester, not a true oil, jojoba is incredibly stable, non-greasy, and well-tolerated even by the most reactive skin types. It’s a quiet powerhouse that keeps skin balanced, nourished, and resilient.

Organic Argan Oil

COLD-PRESSED, ORGANIC ARGAN OIL

WHY ARGAN OIL?

Argan oil, often called “liquid gold,” is cold-pressed from the kernels of the Argania spinosa tree, native to Morocco.

Rich in vitamin E, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants, it deeply nourishes, softens, and strengthens the skin without clogging pores. Its lightweight, fast-absorbing texture makes it ideal for restoring moisture, improving elasticity, and soothing dry or irritated skin.

Traditionally used by Berber women for centuries, argan oil is a time-honored remedy that supports radiant, resilient skin with every drop.

Organic MCT Oil

ORGANIC MCT OIL

WHY MCT OIL?

MCT oil is a lightweight, fast-absorbing moisturizer that nourishes the skin without feeling heavy or greasy. Unlike heavier oils that can sit on the surface, MCT oil sinks in quickly to soften and smooth the skin while helping support its natural moisture balance.

Its silky texture makes it especially appealing for body oils, as it adds glide and spreadability without clogging pores or leaving a waxy residue.

Naturally derived from coconut, MCT oil is valued for its stability, purity, and gentle feel on sensitive skin. It helps condition dry or rough areas, leaving the skin feeling supple, calm, and comfortable.

From modern formulations to everyday skincare rituals, MCT oil has become a trusted ingredient for delivering light hydration, enhancing absorption, and giving skin a smooth, nourished feel, especially when blended with rich, restorative ingredients like jojoba and argan oils.

Unrefined Beeswax

PURE YELLOW BEESWAX

WHY BEESWAX?

Beeswax is a natural skin protectant that does more than just sit on the surface, it locks in moisture while still allowing the skin to breathe.

Unlike synthetic occlusives, beeswax forms a light, breathable barrier that shields skin from wind, cold, and dryness without clogging pores. It’s naturally rich in vitamin A, which supports skin cell turnover and promotes healing, making it especially helpful for dry, cracked, or sensitive skin.

Beeswax also helps stabilize and preserve the texture of the balm, giving it a smooth, velvety finish that melts into the skin on contact.

From ancient times to modern skincare, beeswax has remained a trusted ingredient for soothing, protecting, and nourishing all skin types, especially when paired with deeply healing fats like tallow.

Vitamin E

NATURAL, PLANT-BASED TOCOPHEROL.

WHY VITAMIN E?

Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from environmental stress, such as pollution and UV damage, while supporting its natural healing process.

It helps strengthen the skin barrier, lock in moisture, and reduce the appearance of scars, fine lines, and irritation.

Naturally soothing and anti-inflammatory, vitamin E is especially beneficial for dry, sensitive, or damaged skin, helping it stay resilient, calm, and well-nourished.

Vanilla

PURE VANILLA ABSOLUTE

WHY VANILLA?

Vanilla absolute is a rich, concentrated extract derived from the cured pods of the Vanilla planifolia orchid, most commonly grown in Madagascar.

Deeply comforting and sweet, it brings more than just scent, vanilla is naturally rich in antioxidants that help protect the skin from environmental stress while supporting repair and softness.

Its warm, grounding aroma has long been used to calm the nervous system and evoke a sense of safety, warmth, and nostalgia. In skincare, vanilla absolute adds both emotional depth and subtle skin-soothing benefits, turning each application into a small, luxurious ritual.

BOTANICAL NAME:

Vanilla Planifolia

ORIGIN:

Madagascar

Jasmine Sambac

PURE JASMINE ABSOLUTE

WHY JASMINE?

Jasmine Sambac absolute is an exquisite, highly aromatic extract from the delicate white flowers of the Jasminum Sambac plant, traditionally grown in India.

Known as the queen of the night, its blossoms are hand-picked at dawn when their scent is most potent. Beyond its intoxicating floral aroma, Jasmine Sambac offers skin benefits too: it helps soothe irritation, support elasticity, and promote a healthy glow.

Emotionally, it’s known to uplift mood, ease tension, and gently balance the nervous system. In every drop, Jasmine Sambac carries centuries of ritual, beauty, and emotional grounding.

BOTANICAL NAME:

Jasminum Sambac

ORIGIN:

India

Bergamot

PURE ESSENTIAL OIL

WHY BERGAMOT?

Bergamot is a fresh, citrusy essential oil cold-pressed from the rind of the Citrus Bergamia fruit, primarily grown in southern Italy, especially the Calabria region.

Unlike other citrus oils, bergamot has a uniquely calming and balancing effect: it uplifts the mood while soothing the nervous system.

On the skin, it helps purify and balance oil production, gently clarifies pores, and supports a more even tone. Its light, slightly floral scent adds brightness to any blend, making it both emotionally refreshing and physically revitalizing.

Bergamot brings clarity, both to the skin and to the senses.

BOTANICAL NAME:

Citrus Aurantium Bergamia

ORIGIN:

Italy

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

FAQ - Body Cream

What’s the difference between this cream and your Original Tallow Balm?

The Tallow Body Cream is soft, smooth, and easy to spread — a true moisturiser for daily, full-body use. It has a light texture, a subtle floral-vanilla scent, and absorbs quickly, leaving skin hydrated without greasiness.

The Original Tallow & Honey Balm is richer, denser, and designed more like a healing salve. It contains raw honey and olive oil, making it ideal for barrier repair, dry patches, and sensitive skin. It has a more waxy, occlusive finish.

Use the cream for everyday moisture.

Use the balm when your skin needs protection, calm, or deeper repair.

Can I use the cream on my face?

Yes — the ingredients are non-comedogenic and suitable for most facial skin types. If your skin tends to be oily or reactive, start with a small amount and apply to damp skin. It’s especially lovely on dry, mature, or wind-exposed skin.

Is it suitable for sensitive or reactive skin?

Generally, yes. The base (tallow, jojoba, beeswax) is very gentle and well tolerated. However, the essential oil blend may be too much for ultra-sensitive users or those with fragrance sensitivities. For a scent-free option, try the Unscented Tallow Body Cream.

Will it leave my skin greasy?

No — this cream was made to feel light and breathable. It absorbs fully when used sparingly and massaged into damp or dry skin. There are no synthetic fillers, so you don’t need much.

What does it smell like?

It’s lightly scented with a natural blend of vanilla, jasmine sambac, and bergamot essential oils. It’s warm, floral, and subtle — never overpowering. Just enough to make the experience feel special.

Can I use the balm and the cream together?

Yes — and many of our customers do. Use the cream as your daily go-to moisturiser, and the balm as a protective layer when your skin feels dry, cracked, or irritated. They layer well and serve different needs.

How long will a jar last?

A little goes a long way. With daily use, a 120ml jar typically lasts 1–3 months. Because there’s no water or fillers, each ingredient directly supports your skin.

Will it melt in hot weather?

It’s stable for most climates thanks to the beeswax, but like any tallow-based product, it may soften in heat. If it feels too soft, simply let it rest at room temperature or refrigerate briefly.

Is this product handmade?

Yes. Every jar is handcrafted in small batches using traditional methods. No outsourcing, no shortcuts — just simple, ancestral ingredients blended with care.

I can’t use essential oils, what do I do?

That’s ok! We also have an Unscented Tallow Body Cream. It's the same but without any essential oils so it's perfect for anyone with sensitivity to essential oils.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

FAQ - Body Oil

What is the difference between Dry Body Oil and Tallow Body Cream?

Dry Body Oil is a lightweight, fast-absorbing oil that nourishes the skin and leaves a soft, silky finish.

Tallow Body Cream is a richer moisturiser made with grass-fed tallow that provides deeper, longer lasting nourishment and helps support the skin barrier.

The two products can be used separately or layered together for enhanced skin care.

Should I use Dry Body Oil or Tallow Body Cream if my skin is dry?

If your skin is very dry, Tallow Body Cream is usually the better option because it provides richer and longer lasting nourishment.

Dry Body Oil works beautifully for daily lightweight care and can also be layered under the cream for extra nourishment.

Will Dry Body Oil leave me greasy?

No. Dry Body Oil is formulated with lightweight oils that absorb quickly into the skin and leave a soft, dry finish rather than a greasy layer.

Will it leave my skin greasy?

No — this cream was made to feel light and breathable. It absorbs fully when used sparingly and massaged into damp or dry skin. There are no synthetic fillers, so you don’t need much.

Can I use it with Tallow Body Cream?

Yes. For deeper nourishment, apply a light layer of Dry Body Oil first and then apply Tallow Body Cream on top. This layering method helps leave the skin especially soft and nourished.

Is Dry Body Oil suitable for sensitive skin?

Dry Body Oil is made with a small number of gentle, skin-friendly ingredients. However, because it contains essential oils, we recommend patch testing first if your skin is very sensitive.

What does it smell like?

It’s lightly scented with a natural blend of vanilla, jasmine sambac, and bergamot essential oils. It’s warm, floral, and subtle - never overpowering. Just enough to make the experience feel special.

Can I use Dry Body Oil every day?

Yes. Dry Body Oil is designed for daily use and can be applied after showering or anytime the skin needs extra nourishment.

Can I use Dry Body Oil during summer?

Yes. Its lightweight texture makes it especially pleasant during warmer months when heavier creams may feel too rich. It can be used to nourish the skin after sun exposure. 

How long will one bottle last?

Because the oil spreads easily and only a small amount is needed per application, one bottle typically lasts 1-3+ months with regular use.
