Rendered from the fat surrounding the kidneys of Canadian grass-fed cattle - the most nutrient-dense source on the animal. Tallow's fatty acid profile closely mirrors human sebum, making it one of the most skin-compatible ingredients available. It nourishes, softens, and seals the skin barrier in a single ingredient. Blended with jojoba oil for a smooth, lightweight application that absorbs beautifully without feeling heavy.

Technically a liquid wax rather than an oil, jojoba's (pronounced ho-ho-ba) composition closely mimics the skin's own sebum (oil). It conditions and balances without clogging pores and its natural stability means it doesn't require preservatives. One of the most well-researched and skin-compatible plant ingredients available.

Cold-pressed from the seeds of wild rose bushes, rosehip is rich in linoleic acid and naturally occurring retinoid precursors, making it a gentle alternative for those avoiding synthetic retinols. Works cumulatively over time to support a more even skin tone and healthy-looking complexion.

Squalane is a component of human sebum, making it one of the most inherently compatible ingredients you can apply to skin. Ours is derived from olives, making it a sustainable and skin-identical choice. Lightweight, non-comedogenic and exceptionally well tolerated by even the most sensitive skin.

Cold-pressed from pomegranate seeds, this oil is rich in punicic acid, a rare fatty acid with well-documented antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

A deeply therapeutic oil with a reasonable evidence base for skin healing and anti-inflammatory properties. Known for supporting skin recovery and calming reactive skin. Every ingredient in our formulas is carefully dosed and purposeful - tamanu is no exception.

A natural antioxidant that protects the skin against environmental damage and stabilizes the other oils in the formula, naturally extending shelf life. Supports barrier function and adds a layer of antioxidant protection to every application.
