A Founder's Story

For Three Years I Had Acne and Dry Skin at the Same Time. Every Product I Bought Fixed One and Made the Other Worse.

Clean Cream is made by hand in small batches in California.

If you have only ever had one of these, this will not make sense to you. If you have had both at once, you already know exactly what I am about to describe.

Acne and dry skin. At the same time. For three years.

Everything I bought for the breakouts stripped me until my face felt tight by lunchtime. Everything I bought for the dryness was rich enough that I spent the next week bracing for what my skin would do about it.

I did not spend thousands. I spent hundreds, in amounts small enough that not one of them ever felt like a decision. That is how it happens. It is never one expensive mistake. It is a hundred small ones over three years, and you do not see the total until you look at the shelf.

What finally broke the loop

It was not a product. It was a sentence I had heard my entire life and had never once connected to my bathroom counter.

I had been treating mine like a surface. Something to strip, correct, cover up. But it is an organ, the biggest one I have, and I was putting things on it twice a day without ever turning the bottle over.

So I turned them over. Twenty-something ingredients on most of them. I could pronounce maybe four.

Why tallow

Tallow is not foreign to your skin. That is the entire point of it. Beef tallow closely resembles the natural oils human skin already produces, which is why it absorbs instead of sitting on top. It carries the fat soluble vitamins A, D, E and K. Grass fed, grass finished, whipped by hand in small batches.

One ingredient I could pronounce, instead of eight I could not. And for the first time in three years, I was not choosing between the acne and the dryness.

I stopped buying the next thing to fix the last thing. That is when I started making it for other people.

What I make

The OG	2 oz hydrating whipped face tallow, the daily one
The Glow	2 oz with raw manuka honey, castor oil, rosehip and magnesium
The Cloud	4 oz whipped body tallow
Cloud Oil	3.5 oz magnesium infused tallow oil
Cowboy Cream	4 oz, for hands and skin that work for a living
SPF 30	grass fed tallow and non nano zinc

"Won't putting beef fat on my face break me out?"

It is the first question everyone asks, and after what I just told you about my own skin, it is the fair one.

Absolutely not, and here is why. Beef tallow closely resembles the natural oils your skin already produces, which is why it absorbs instead of sitting on the surface. It moisturizes while it supports your skin barrier, and it does that without clogging pores.

That is the part that surprised me. Everything else I tried made me choose: strip the oil and dry out, or moisturize and break out. Tallow did neither.
