Ingredient simplicity
Many lotions contain water, emulsifiers, preservatives, and fragrance. Misun Health tallow products are single-ingredient focused for users who want fewer variables.
Moisture longevity
Tallow forms a richer occlusive layer, which can help very dry skin hold moisture longer than lightweight body lotions.
When lotion still wins
If you prefer very fast-absorbing daytime texture for humid weather, lightweight lotion may feel better. Many people use both depending on season.
Common Questions
Is tallow better than lotion for winter dryness?
For many people with tight or flaky skin, yes—its richer texture helps lock in hydration in low humidity conditions.
Can I layer tallow over a hydrating serum?
Yes. Apply water-based hydrators first, then use a thin tallow layer to seal moisture.
