How Beef Tallow Helps
Tallow's fatty acid profile closely matches human sebum, providing deep moisturization without irritating sensitive eczema-prone skin. Its natural vitamins A, D, E, and K support skin healing.
How to Use Tallow for Eczema
Application Method
Apply a thin layer to affected areas 2-3 times daily, especially after bathing while skin is still slightly damp.
Expected Results
Many users report reduced itching within days and improved skin texture within 2-4 weeks of consistent use.
Best Tallow Type
Grass-fed, unscented, pure tallow works best for sensitive eczema skin.
Important Precautions
Start with a small patch test. While tallow is generally well-tolerated, everyone's skin is different. Consult a dermatologist for severe eczema.
