Rose Tallow Emuslified Body Butter - Handcrafted in small batches
£15.00
This combination of ingredients creates a highly nourishing, nutrient-dense, and luxurious skincare product, often referred to as a "water-based tallow cream" or "emulsified balm." By emulsifying tallow with a hydrosol, the texture becomes light, fluffy, and fast-absorbing, overcoming the greasy feeling of pure tallow while providing deep, long-lasting hydration.
Here is a description of the components and their benefits:
1. Tallow Emulsified Body Butter (The Base)
An emulsified body butter combines tallow (oil) and rose hydrosol (water) using an emulsifier was(plant based) to create a cream or lotion.
- Benefits: It provides the deep, lasting moisture of tallow without feeling heavy or greasy, allowing for easier application and faster absorption.
- Texture: Light, airy, and whipped, but more stable across temperature changes than standard whipped tallow.
2. Beef Tallow
Rendered beef fat is packed with nutrients that mimic human skin lipids.
- Benefits: It is rich in fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, which nourish skin, promote collagen production, and aid in cellular regeneration.
- Skin Type: Ideal for dry, sensitive, or eczema-prone skin, as it strengthens the skin barrier.
3. Rose Hydrosol (Rose Water)
A gentle, therapeutic water produced by steam-distilling rose petals. It acts as the "water phase" in the emulsion.
- Benefits: Hydrates, tones, and soothes skin irritation, while helping to reduce redness and inflammation.
- Aroma: Provides a subtle, comforting, and natural rose scent.
4. Jojoba Oil
A liquid wax that is technically a jojoba ester, which closely mimics human sebum (natural skin oil).
- Benefits: It acts as a lightweight moisturizer that helps balance natural oil production and enhances the absorption of other ingredients.
5. Rosehip Oil
A powerful botanical oil extracted from the seeds of wild rose bushes.
- Benefits: Rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, it is known for rejuvenating the skin, brightening dark spots, reducing inflammation, and boosting collagen production. [
6. Vitamin E Oil
A potent antioxidant that serves both the skin and the product.
- Benefits: Protects skin from oxidative stress, heals, and acts as a natural antioxidant, which extends the shelf life of the body butter by preventing oils from going rancid.
7. Allantoin
A non-irritating botanical extract derived from the comfrey plant.
- Benefits: It is an intensive soothing agent that promotes skin regeneration, softens keratin, and helps heal dry, damaged, or irritated skin.
8. Geranium & Patchouli Essential Oils
These essential oils offer both aromatherapy benefits and skin-enhancing properties.
- Geranium: Known for its balancing, astringent properties, helping to tone skin and uplift mood.
- Patchouli: Provides grounding, earthy, and calming effects while assisting with skin rejuvenation and reducing dryness.
