What Is Tallowtan? The Story Behind the World’s First Tallow-Based Self Tanner
Tallowtan™ didn’t start as a brand - it started as a mission. After years of frustration with sunless tanners that dried out skin, smelled awful, and were loaded with questionable chemicals, I knew there had to be a better way. But no one was doing it.
I started researching the healthiest, most skin-compatible ingredients - and everything pointed back to tallow.
Why Tallow?
Grass-fed, grass-finished beef tallow is rich in skin-loving nutrients like vitamins A, D, E, and K. It closely mimics our skin’s own natural oils, which means it absorbs beautifully and helps strengthen the skin barrier.
Unlike conventional tanners that strip and stress the skin, Tallowtan hydrates, nourishes, and heals, all while giving you a natural-looking, buildable glow.
The First of Its Kind
I couldn’t find a single product on the market that combined organic tallow with a clean, effective self-tanner-so I made it myself. And when I say first, I mean it: Tallowtan™ is the world’s first tallow-based self tanning product.
Every jar is handmade in small batches (for now) with:
- Grass-fed, hormone-free tallow
- Hyaluronic acid for deep hydration
- Niacinamide and panthenol to support your skin
- Skin-safe DHA + erythrulose for that golden glow
Why It Matters
Everything you put on your skin matters. Your body absorbs what you apply - and the beauty industry has been ignoring that for too long. Tallowtan™ was created to be different. No synthetic fragrance bombs. No drying alcohols. No BS. Just glow that actually does something for your skin.
Trademarked. Protected. Original.
The name Tallowtan™ is officially trademarked. This isn’t a trend- this is a category-defining product, and we’re proud to be the original. While others may try to replicate, there’s only one real Tallowtan™.
What’s Next?
This is just the beginning. Tallowtan™ will expand into sunscreen, skin prep, body butters, and full sun care systems-all powered by the nutrient-rich simplicity of tallow. We’re here to build a billion-dollar brand with real impact.
Glow smarter. Glow healthier. Glow with Tallowtan™.
