100.000+ Skin Transformations

Irish grass-fed tallow makes all the difference.

Our skincare starts long before it reaches your hands.

It begins on Irish land, under soft rain and endless green pasture.

Ireland’s mild climate and rich soil create one of the most unique environments in the world for raising healthy, grass fed animals.

Cows here graze outside for most of the year, moving through fields that stay green even in winter. This slow, natural way of living produces tallow that is richer, softer and more nourishing than anything created in intensive farming systems.

  • Fresh suet only.

    Every week local farmers deliver fresh fat to our facility in Enniscorthy, in Ireland. Not frozen, not oxidised and never stored for months. Fresh, clean and full of natural nutrients.

  • We melt it.

    We render it ourselves with low heat and patience, the same way our families did for generations. This is hard, manual labour. No other brand is crazy enough to go through this pain.

  • Hand made.

    Every jar is hand crafted in Ireland. Because skincare should not be fake, watered down or mass produced. It should be real, honest, nourishing. Made with ingredients so clean you can eat them.

Original Tallow & Honey Balm

Honest review - Original tallow & honey

Straight off the bat, just want to explain, I'm a bloke from Newcastle England, who has suffered from eczema since my teens, I have extremely sensitive skin, and have generally only been able to use E45 or nivea sensitive aftershave balm on my face. I suffer from quite flaky dry skin year round, around my eyes, nose, mouth which looks like I have face dandruff which is rank. I've tried every cream, every steroid cream and they just don't work. Bepanathen/E45 probably have given me the most success, although bepanthen leaves me really oily, which ends up producing spots. And E45 needs to be applied 3-5 times a day. I came across this product through reels, and ended up in a rabbit hole through every video, and researching myself into beef tallow and the natural ingredients. Ended up thinking, you know what, I'll give it a go, it's £20+ but what have I got to lose after years of zero success. Made sense to go for this brand as they seem to offer high quality, decent market price and the videos and info was very clear.

I've had this product about 2 weeks now.
I was very sceptical about a few aspects.
Smell - I was actually pleasantly surprised, I'd heard the smell can be very hard to handle, and challenging. No word of a lie, on the original tallow & honey product I purchased, I thought it smells amazing, I actually love the smell, it's almost like a masculine cupcake smell 😂
Second scepticism - the small tub and the info that a little goes a long way, as many other products say this, and they just don't.
This really does go a long way, I've barely scraped the surface with my daily usage so far. A finger tip amount rubs into the palms easily, and then can be spread all over my face evenly with ease.

The biggest scepticism was if this would work with my dry eczema skin on my face. No joke, this worked from the first time I used it.
What I would recommend for other people similar.
I find it works best, after I've washed my face with warm water (after my shower)
I just apply it straight from the shower before bed, and first thing in the morning after a freshen up.

My skin actually looks the best it ever has, I've had a few people comment I look well, normally I look tired and generally crap. My dry flaky skin has gone away, and stays away throughout the day.

I would say that since I have a beard, I'd still recommend using your normal beard oil alongside this to keep the natural oils and fresh look into your beard. But for my skin this cream is unbelievable. My vegan partner isn't so keen, but I'm trying to convince her to try it since it's a natural product with very natural ingredients (zero chemicals).

Couldn't recommend this enough and I know this probably sounds like a fake review or paid for review. I can 100% clarify this is my full honest review and experience, I'm just a bloke from Newcastle, 34 with 2 kids.

I certainly will be coming back for more, once I get through my product, just keep it stored in a cool place as you would with any other skin product.

Recommend to all of my family

I use the regular honey tallow and I grabbed the sensitive one for my baby before he was born and boy was I glad I did! He developed full body baby acne 1 day after he was born (a normal reaction), but all the hospital staff said to do was put my breast milk on his skin (which I was). I got home and finally put the baby tallow on him after a few days of his skin just getting worse/no change and it cleared COMPLETELY in 3-4 days. I love the scent for him (not too strong but just reminds me of a baby) and his skin absolutely loves it! I use on his face/body and as a diaper balm, would love to see Ancestral Cosmetics come out with a baby whipped version!. This and tubby Tod are the only things I will put on my baby, I recommend to all my coworkers and family members (coming from an ER nurse myself)!

Super rich and moisturising balm

I never usually respond to viral adverts on social media, but as a 60 year old with dry skin, I was impressed by the idea of a rich, but simple product using animal fats and honey, rather than chemically produced concoctions. I bought it and tried it. First time I put it on my skin it felt lovely. It’s best to rub it in your hand first to soften it up as it then goes on better. My skin felt moisturised until the next morning. It smells gorgeous and dos what it sets out to do. My skin has not felt this supple in years and I use it twice a day. After going through literally dozens of products, I have found my face balm. Thanks for persevering - You’re worth it!!

Confidence is growing

This is the difference in a week. My skin is more glowy and more even texture and my bad skin is starting to become ‘less angry’ looking. It’s the most confidence I’ve felt in months. My skin feels so hydrated too. For anyone with acne prone skin who can’t find products that work for them.. please try this!!

Magic

Ordered the tallow and honey balm. Was concerned initially as I suffer with breakouts and have had severe acne in the past. This balm is beautifully soft and smells fresh and clean. Only been using it for a month and I’ve not had any reactions to it. I’ve even been brave enough to go out without makeup on. That’s unheard of for me. I will definitely but again and try some of your other skin care products. Thank you

I’m comfortable in my skin again!

After having my daughter two years ago, I’ve struggled with rosacea issues on my face, particularly on my eye lids. It would get so uncomfortable I’d be driven mad with dryness and itchiness. What a difference a month (and ancestral cosmetics) can make! I’ve been using the clarifying duo and tallow balm and have noticed a massive change in the texture and hydration of my skin. The longer I’ve used it, the less I’ve had to apply, as my skin has soaked it up and is clearly now hydrated layers deep! I’m so grateful to now feel comfortable in my skin once again.

I cannot recommend this enough, I've been using it since January along with the tallow and black seed oil and I will never put anything else on my skin again. This is my skin 7 months apart. I just wish I started using it sooner !

Seborric dermatitis

I get flare ups of dermatitis on my scalp, hairline, behind and in my ears which makes my skin so itchy, sore and dry. No other cream has provided the same relief as this tallow. I really am so glad I bought it. My ears five days ago were flaking, red raw and painful. After applying this daily sometimes twice my ears have now calmed down and show signs of healing. ❤️‍🩹 below is one day apart and the difference is definitely there.
