Nicole's Story
A few years ago, I began a wellness journey to feel more energized and at ease in my body—something many of you may relate to. After trying several conventional paths, I chose a more mindful, holistic approach. That shift began with reducing toxins in my home, which led me to discover tallow as a natural alternative to mainstream skincare. I was amazed by how well it worked, transforming my routine into something both simple and deeply effective.
Alongside my wellness journey, I embraced a slower, more intentional lifestyle. With four kids and the natural pace of life, I’ve prioritized finding ways to slow down and create moments of peace in my. home. Cooking nourishing meals, gardening, and reading have become daily practices that help me feel centered and balanced.
What is Tallow Skincare?
Tallow is simply rendered beef fat—and it’s been trusted for centuries in natural skincare.
Tallow closely mimics the oils found in our skin and is rich in bio-available essential vitamins and fatty acids that support healthy skin.
So why is it making a comeback now? Because savvy consumers are paying attention to what they put in—and on—their bodies. Many conventional beauty products rely on synthetic chemicals to extend shelf life or cut costs. In contrast to these potentially harmful, hormone-disrupting ingredients, tallow offers a clean, effective alternative. That's why we keep things simple and all-natural, with ingredients you can recognize and feel good about.
New to Tallow? Here's How to Start.
We offer both whipped and non-whipped tallow skincare. Whipped tallow has a light, airy texture—like buttercream frosting—and melts effortlessly into the skin. Non-whipped tallow has a rich, dense texture—think lip balm— and offers deeper hydration when your skin needs extra nourishment.
If you're looking to add tallow into your routine, start simple. Replace your current moisturizer for a tallow-based option (we recommend Clear Complexion!) and apply a small amount to the face or body. A little goes a long way, and every formula is designed to work beautifully for all skin types.
Being Part of Something Bigger
Clara & Fritz is more than natural skincare—it’s a celebration of living well. It's about creating a cleaner, safer world for ourselves and our families. By living more mindfully and embracing natural alternatives and healthier choices, we create space for a more balanced, intentional life.
Making tallow-based skincare by hand and sharing it with you is a dream come true. I know how overwhelming it can feel to find products that are both clean and effective, and my hope is that Clara & Fritz makes it easier for you to embrace a toxin-free lifestyle.
