Essential oils are natural extracts from plants, flowers and trees, while perfume often consists of synthetic fragrances. Essential oils contain the active components of the plant, which makes them both fragrant and skin-nourishing.

If you are sensitive, it is important to be careful even with essential oils, as they are powerful concentrates. Some oils are gentler than others, but we always recommend a patch test before use. Our products are carefully balanced to be gentle, but if you are very sensitive, fragrance-free alternatives may be a better choice.

Our products are made from natural ingredients, which means that the color may vary slightly from batch to batch.

Tallow, like olive oil, can be stored at room temperature. It has the type of fat that cannot oxidize and thus go bad. Avoid direct sunlight. Make sure to keep the lid on to avoid dirt in the jar.

We have a 6 month shelf life mostly because the scent fades. Tallow can be stored for 12 months and even longer if it is kept cooler. In the refrigerator it can last for a couple of years but then it also becomes hard in consistency.
