Grass-fed tallow benefits are more than just skin deep. At Summer Solace, we make each buttery smooth batch of tallow in-house and by hand with exclusively locally sourced suet from certified regeneratively raised cattle. More than organic, the ranches we work with practice beyond sustainable methods that literally draw carbon down from the atmosphere and directly assist in reversing the effects of climate change. These animals are responsibly raised and grazed on Northern California pastures within 60 miles of our Oakland studio, helping us to minimize the impact of transportation and lower our carbon footprint, as well as allowing us to maintain healthy relationships with our ranchers.
"It is a wise practice for sound health and nutrition to eat organic, seasonally, and regionally. What we put on our skin should also reflect our local environment- it's plants and animals that sequester carbon from the atmosphere and that are grown and grazed on regenerative soil, just as our ancestors have"
-Megan Bre Camp, founder and CEO of Summer Solace
Slow Made + Locally Focused
Our grass-fed tallow contains copious amounts of vitamins A, D, K, E, and B12, and is rich in essential fatty acids that help maintain the structural integrity of the skin. Its abundant nutrient profile supports the natural production of collagen and provides anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties, all of which help to treat and soothe dry skin and immune responses like eczema and rosacea. As an occlusive material, tallow mimics the natural barrier of the skin, providing protection from environmental and elemental wear and tear and helping to retain essential moisture.
