If you are looking for
high-quality and exceptionally pure tallow skincare, we warmly welcome you to Swiss Tallow. Our customers have already experienced the difference.
The Swiss Tallow Difference
The Swiss Tallow team has spent many months developing a
proprietary filtration and purification process, which we continue to refine. We use professional, high-end equipment that allows for an
exceptionally high level of purity. Thanks to this expertise and our experience, we remain the
only provider operating at this quality level today.
We do not offer ordinary, untreated beef fat, but rather
ultra-pure, multi-filtered tallow in true premium quality. Our products are
free from oxidation, silky smooth, and show
no yellow discoloration caused by impurities.
You can feel the difference immediately. Our
tallow is soft, odorless, pleasant to apply, and easily absorbed by the skin.
Unfortunately, we continue to see that many tallow products on the market are not properly cleaned or filtered.
This often leads to
oxidation
(noticeable by an unpleasant smell) and even bacterial contamination, since unwanted components remain in the product. Such products do not nourish the skin effectively and
can even cause irritation.
Try it yourself:
Have you purchased a tallow product that appears yellowish in color?
Rub it on your hand and smell it. If the product has a slightly rancid, oxidized, or unpleasant animal smell, it is likely low-quality and oxidized tallow.
Science says the following:
Oxidation by-products from free fatty acids in insufficiently filtered beef tallow may potentially be harmful to the skin, especially if your skin is sensitive or already damaged. Here's why:
🔬 What happens during tallow oxidation?
Beef tallow mainly consists of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids (especially stearic, palmitic, and oleic acid). When exposed to air, light, or heat over time – especially if not properly purified –
lipid oxidation can occur. This process produces:
- Peroxides
- Aldehydes (e.g. malondialdehyde)
- Ketones
- Short-chain fatty acids with a rancid smell
⚠️ Effects on the skin
Oxidation by-products can:
- Cause irritation (especially peroxidized fats)
- Release free radicals, which accelerate skin aging
- Trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals
- Weaken the skin’s barrier instead of strengthening it
- Worsen symptoms of acne or rosacea
✅ Why purified and neutralized tallow is better
Well-filtered, purified, and gently processed tallow:
- contains
very few free fatty acids,
- is
almost odorless (no oxidative by-products),
- does not oxidize (especially in airtight packaging),
- is
more stable on the skin and protects it due to the high content of saturated fats.
Conclusion:
Oxidized, rancid tallow may irritate or even damage the skin, especially with frequent use. That’s why
filtration, purification, and gentle processing (as practiced by Swiss Tallow) are not just marks of quality, but also a
matter of skin health.
– We believe: Our customers deserve purity.
