Why We Love Pork Tallow

Why We Love Pork Tallow *

Meadowlark Made Prairie Apothecary Tallow Tattoo Balm

We craft our skincare with pasture-raised pork tallow because it’s deeply nourishing, vitamin-rich, and beautifully in tune with our skin. Unlike the heavier texture of beef tallow, pork tallow has a lighter, creamier feel and a more subtle aroma, making it ideal for face and body care.

Rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, pork tallow is especially high in vitamin D, a nutrient many of us lack but our skin craves. It’s composition closely mirror’s our own skin’s natural oils, helping it soothe, soften, and repair without clogging pores.

Rooted in ancestral tradition and raised right here on our family farm, our pork tallow is more than an ingredient - it’s a return to old ways that still work.

More About Our Tallow

Which Facial Balm is right for you?

Rooted in prairie wisdom, our balms each tell a story. Find the one that fits your skin’s journey.

    • Ideal for all skin types, Meadow Glow helps reveal radiant, even-toned skin. Pasture-raised pork tallow and organic meadowfoam oil infused with wild strawberry leaves, violet, and anise hyssop support natural brightness while deeply nourishing your skin.

    • Perfect for acne-prone, sensitive, or oily skin, Harmony works to calm irritation, reduce inflammation, soothe redness, and restore balance. Gentle prairie herbs (dandelion, wild bergamot/bee balm, yarrow) and organic hempseed oil help keep skin clear, comfortable, and resilient.

    • Formulated for dry or mature skin, Foraged Grace helps soften fine lines and support collagen production. A blend of elderflower, echinacea, and goldenrod infused in rosehip and argan oils leaves skin supple, moisturized, and glowing with health.
