Kind Words

  • Oh goodness, the Tallow face cream makes all the other face creams I’ve tried look pathetic. This moisturizes my skin and is very soothing to my sensitive skin. I love the healthy shine it leaves on my face and it has a very mild and pleasant scent. I’m so happy with this purchase and never want to run out.

  • I learned about this serum through purchasing Hannah's tallow face cream and oh. my. GOODNESS! Shannon, you have me as a customer, FOR LIFE. My face has never been happier! And! Wrinkles are softened, and breakouts are almost non-existent! Thank you Shannon!!

    Mallory C.

  • OMG! This Tallow face cream is the holy grail! I am a skin care junkie and I always get compliments how nice my skin is. I always go back to natural products or nothing at all. This is the perfect balance of nature and luxury! Do yourself a favor a run to order this! I promise your skin will thank you! Oh and it also is light weight, yet rich and smells heavenly. Also great for sensitive skin which I have! 6 stars
