Tea Tree & Charcoal Tallow Soap - Old Spot
Hog & Tallow Soaps are made with local tallow or lard, comfrey infused British coldpressed rapeseed oil (GMO free) and waste ingredients such as ale, milk and cider. All the ingredients are either foraged by ourselves or collected from small cottage industries who are willing to give us their waste.
Tallow is a traditional and fantastic ingredient in soap. The fatty acids in tallow are similar to those found in the protective outer layer of human skin and in naturally produced skin oils
Tallow is highly compatible with our skin, allowing it to absorb easily, improve the protective barrier, prevent moisture loss and contribute to the appearance of healthy looking skin.
Being full of vitamin E, rapeseed oil is another skin loving ingredient. We wanted to use fats that are not only great for the skin but local to us and not flown in from around the world resulting in a soap with a very small carbon footprint!
We only use herbs and plants that we forage ourselves so we know that they are organic or from trusted gardens.

Are there any seed oils in the Pure Tallow Soap range?
In our Botanical Soap range we use grass fed tallow, cold pressed British rapeseed oil and spring water (lye creates these into soap) and essential oils to scent the soap. The rapeseed oil we use is from small regenerative farms in the West Country which cold press their oil to retain its colour and qualities (unlike highly processed standard rapeseed oil which uses heat and is another process entirely!) It is high in Vitamin E and deeply hydrates the skin. It contains essential fatty acids and is great at soothing irritated skin conditions.

Is it organic? see main FAQ's
Do you buy in tallow to make your products?
No we collect the raw beef fat from trusted farms in Cornwall and hand- render ourselves so we have complete control over the quality and consistency of our tallow. This is really important to us, see Our Story
How long does a soap last?
With every day use, a tallow soap (which is a nice hard soap and won't go sticky in the soap dish) will last about one month as your everyday hand soap or up to 2 months if using to shower and bathe
What sort of skin is tallow soap good for?
All skin types and especially sensitive. It is incredibly mild and tallow has a very simular fat profile to our own skin. I would recommend unscented such as Pure tallow or Malted Milk if you have particularly sensitive skin
Can I use for eczema and psoriasis?
Yes i would recommend the Pure Tallow unscented bar or Malted Milk for this and we have many reviews from customers who have had great success using our Pure tallow soap on their skin
What is the postage on this product?
We use Royal Mail 48 hour tracked service. This means you should receive an email from RM with your tracking number and also a confirmation from us. We dispatch with 3 working days.
