Ingredients Matter

Old ways. New skin. Every ingredient, fully disclosed.

We make our skincare the way generations of women before us did: with a short list of real ingredients. Most of what goes into our jars comes from our own farm or the prairie around it. Here’s what’s inside, and why.

Meadowlark Made pork tallow skincare made from pigs raised on our Iowa farm

FROM OUR FARM

Pasture-Raised Pork Tallow

Lighter than beef tallow, with neutral scent that lets our herbs shine. Its fatty acid profile is similar to our own, so it absorbs well without feeling heavy. Contains fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K.

Found in: body butters, herbal salves, soaps, lip care, facial balms

GROWN & FORAGED

Prairie Botanicals

Yarrow, chickweed, plantain, goldenrod, dandelion, and more. We grow them on the farm or forage them by hand from clean land, then slow-infuse them for weeks into oils or tallow.

Found in: herbal salves, facial balms, seasonal blends, hydrosols

SOURCED LOCALLY

Local Beeswax

Golden beeswax from local beekeepers, never bleached, so it keeps its natural color and scent. It forms a breathable layer that holds moisture in and protects dry skin.

Found in: body butters, lip care, herbal salves, facial balms

Cold-pressed oils and butters blended into Meadowlark Made tallow skincare

COLD-PRESSED

Jojoba, argan, meadowfoam, castor, and more. We choose cold-pressed, unrefined oils for how well they work with skin and with our tallow.

Found in: salves, body butters, facial balms, soaps, lip care, serums
