FAQ
Your Questions
Answered
What is Wagyu tallow, and why put it on my face?
Wagyu tallow is rendered fat from Wagyu cattle, and rendered fat like it has been used in skincare for centuries. Ours is 100% grass-fed Wagyu tallow sourced directly from US ranchers, whipped with lavender essential oil and organic extra virgin olive oil: three ingredients, no fillers. It carries vitamins A, D, E and K, and the Elixir has a light, whipped texture that melts into skin without grease.
Why Wagyu tallow instead of regular tallow?
Wagyu tallow has a different fat profile from regular tallow, with more monounsaturated fats such as oleic acid, known for deep moisture, and a lighter texture. Most regular tallow is made from cow suet sold by local butchers, so it could come from just about any cow. Ours is 100% grass-fed Wagyu tallow sourced directly from USDA-inspected Wagyu ranchers in the USA, never mixed with regular tallow from other cattle.
What's in it?
Just three ingredients: 100% grass-fed Wagyu tallow (packed with vitamins A, D, E and K), lavender essential oil, and organic cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil. No water, no fillers, and no synthetic preservatives.
Will it feel greasy or clog my pores?
It's whipped to feel light and melt in, not sit on top. A pea-sized amount is enough; using too much is what can feel oily. Wagyu tallow is considered non-comedogenic, meaning it is less likely to clog pores, but every skin is different, so test a small area first.
Is it good for sensitive or dry skin?
The Elixir is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and dry skin, with just three ingredients and nothing else added. Wagyu tallow is often well tolerated by sensitive skin, but individual results vary, so patch-test a small area before using it all over.
What does it smell like?
A soft lavender note from lavender essential oil, so it's lightly scented rather than fragrance-free. The Wagyu tallow is triple wet-rendered to keep its own natural scent subtle, and our lavender oil is made without synthetic fragrance.
How much do I use, and when?
Morning and night, or as needed. Warm a pea-sized amount between your fingertips, massage it gently into clean skin, and give it 5–15 minutes to absorb before makeup or SPF.
How long does a jar last?
One 50 ml jar lasts at least a month, and usually about 2 months, with daily use of a pea-sized amount.
How should I store it?
There are no preservatives, so keep it somewhere cool and dry, out of direct sun (Wagyu tallow melts above 78°F). Refrigerate it in warm weather, and use it within about three months of delivery for the best experience.
What if it arrives melted?
We chill every order before it ships and add ice to warm-weather orders. If your jar arrives melted or leaking, email hello@goldentallow.com within 48 hours of delivery with clear photos of the jar and packaging, and we'll replace it. Melting after delivery isn't covered, but you can refrigerate the cream or re-whip it with a hand mixer.
Can I subscribe, and can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Choose a delivery schedule in the Elixir's purchase options above to save on every delivery. You can skip or cancel anytime.
How fast does it ship, and is shipping free?
Orders are processed within 1–3 business days. Shipping is free on orders of $120 or more, and rates for smaller orders are shown at checkout. We ship to the USA and international destinations.
What's your return policy?
Unopened items with the tamper seal intact can be returned within 30 days of delivery. Opened or used items can't be returned unless they're defective. Full details are on our Shipping & Return Policy page.
EU and UK customers can also cancel or return an order within 14 days of delivery, for any reason, as long as the item is unused and in its original packaging.

REPEAT ORDERS FOR A REASON!
We have orders on repeat. This authentic tallow cream and soap combination is excellent for our needs and weather conditions in our regions, Virginia and Florida. This product holds up golden. Thank you all.

LOVE GOLDEN TALLOW!
From delivery experience with a handwritten note from Kit to the product itself… I love everything about Golden Tallow! Using the facial cream everyday now and plan to for a long time to come :)

★★★★★
This facial cream is amazing!! I've been making my own tallow for years and this doesn't even feel like the same product. Totally different level - very light, clean product. My skin is glowing and it doesn't clog my pores or anything like that. As a guy I've never really had a facial cream product before and this one meets all my goals.

★★★★★
This luxurious facial elixir is top class as it comes. It's made with 3 simple ingredients. It's thick and fluffy as mousse. You only need a dab for each part of your face and it makes your skin feel silky smooth with a beautiful glow!! I highly recommend this luxury facial elixir!!

★★★★★
My skin gets very dry as soon as temperatures drop in the winter. Ive tried shea butter and other facial creams and nothing helps; my skin continues to be dry and flaky on my face. Decided to give Tallow a try and in just three days my face has regained and maintained moisture. I even notice I don’t need to put it on every day— three consecutive days was enough for my skin to recover. Happy to support a product with natural ingredients— the way it should be!

★★★★★
Have been eating pretty poorly lately. My face is usually the canary for me to clean up my garbage consumption. I hadn't when I received this. I started to use this daily and it was a noticeable difference in less than a couple weeks. Dryness was gone. Flakes gone. No, its not an excuse to eat dirty. No, does it smell like beef. Good stuff.
