What is tallow?

In the past, people had a much closer connection to their food and daily necessities. Our great-grandparents were familiar with traditional ingredients like beef tallow, often sourcing and preparing it themselves. This nutrient-rich ingredient has been cherished for generations, offering numerous health benefits both inside and out.

Tallow is a skincare powerhouse thanks to its blend of fatty acids and essential vitamins A, D, E, and K. These nutrients work together to deeply hydrate, boost collagen production, reduce inflammation, and promote smoother, firmer skin—helping to minimize wrinkles and maintain a youthful glow.

It’s worth noting that the benefits of tallow are significantly enhanced when it comes from grass-fed cattle. Traditional cultures prized animal fats like tallow for their role in promoting vitality, fertility, healthy children. By choosing tallow, we’re rediscovering a timeless, natural remedy for vibrant health and beauty.

  • Minerals: Important for cellular health and repair.
  • Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA): Naturally anti-inflammatory and supports healthy skin.
  • Palmitoleic Acid (Omega-7): One of the building blocks of healthy, supple skin.
  • Palmitic Acid: Strengthens the skin’s protective barrier.
  • Stearic Acid: Repairs damaged skin while improving its flexibility and softness.

Meet The Founder

I’m Christine Sharpe, a wife and mama of four, living on an acreage in the beautiful foothills of Alberta. With deep farming roots, I’m passionate about what I put in my family’s bellies— from the food I grow and make to what we put on our skin.

I created Foothills Tallow, a clean, natural skincare alternative that reflects my commitment to pure, sustainable living.

At Foothills Tallow, we use locally sourced, grass-finished beef suet from the foothills to craft our nourishing products. Our tallow is rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, along with essential fatty acids like omega-7, which support healthy, radiant skin and provide natural anti-aging benefits. Our product is designed to deliver the powerful, healing benefits of nature’s most nourishing fats, all while staying true to our farming heritage.

When I’m not creating tallow-based skincare, you’ll find me riding horses, gardening, cooking, spending time with my family, and serving in my community. I’m passionate about giving back fostering a strong, connected community and living a lifestyle that’s both self-sustaining and loving. My mission is simple—create products that are as pure and wholesome as the land I call home.
