NATURE-INSPIRED  PRODUCTS

At Wisco Tallow Co., we believe skincare should be as pure and intentional as the ingredients inside it. Every product we make is inspired by the rhythms of nature and rooted in a commitment to sustainability, simplicity, and small-batch craftsmanship.

 

We source tallow from local Wisconsin farms and beeswax from Kallas Honey in Milwaukee, and choose organic ingredients whenever possible to deliver nutrient-rich skincare that truly supports your skin. From nourishing balms to protective sun care, each formula is made with purpose—and nothing unnecessary.

 

Behind the scenes, we go the extra mile: from straining tallow with unbleached cheesecloths to using 100% recyclable containers and packaging. Even our leftover fat scraps are put to good use—fed back to our chickens as part of our no-waste mission.

 

This is skincare that honors the land, the body, and the process—crafted with care, just as nature intended.

Hey Friends!

Wisco Tallow Co. was founded by Lindsey Stern—a mom of three, registered nurse, chicken mama, and believer in the power of simple, real ingredients. With the support of my wonderful husband, what began as a passion for natural living has grown into a mission to create clean, nourishing skincare that supports both your skin and our Wisconsin community.

 

We proudly source high-quality suet from Gehring’s Meat Market in St. Lawrence, Wisconsin, and slow-render it into tallow to preserve its rich nutrients and skin-loving properties. Every product is crafted in small batches with care—free of chemicals and fillers—using only pure, locally sourced ingredients that are as good for your skin as they are for the earth.

 

Thank you for supporting small business and embracing a return to the basics.

Why Tallow?

Your skin is your largest organ—and what you put on it matters. For too long, we’ve normalized the use of synthetic chemicals, fillers, and artificial fragrances in everyday skincare. But these ingredients don’t just sit on your skin—they’re absorbed into your body, and many have been linked to hormonal imbalances, fertility challenges, mood disorders, and even certain cancers.

 

At Wisco Tallow Co., we believe in going back to the basics. Tallow is a deeply nourishing, bioavailable fat—meaning it’s something your body naturally recognizes and knows how to use. It closely mirrors your skin’s own oils, making it incredibly effective for moisturizing, healing, and protecting without disrupting your natural balance.

 

Our slow-rendered tallow is rich in:

 

  • Vitamins A, D, E, and K – key nutrients for skin repair and renewal

  • Palmitic and stearic acids – support the skin barrier and improve texture

  • Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) – known for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties

  • Omega fatty acids – deeply hydrate and calm the skin

 

 

Tallow is also non-comedogenic, meaning it won’t clog pores. It’s gentle, safe, and effective for all skin types—including sensitive, acne-prone, and baby skin.

 

We blend our tallow with simple, intentional ingredients like organic jojoba oil, vitamin E, and essential oils to offer clean skincare that supports your skin—and your health—naturally.
