Geez, I wonder if the argument/advertising that Tallow is still bad for us would hold as much weight if the general public knew it was in a majority of our skin care products already without us knowing it!
Long before families began relying on corporations to supply their lab-derived skin care products and even longer before women were deduced to non-producing positions in the workforce, families and communities counted on their women to use available resources to make great things.
Through this encouragement and commitment, women developed and refined recipes that were passed down from one mother to the next and through the very scientific process called trial and error, developed a slew of items to share with the community.
These pioneering women learned how to use gifts from nature, such as clean animal fats, to produce lotions, salves, hair treatments, soaps, cosmetics and cold remedies.
