'Issi' or 'Deer' in Choctaw, is the foundational component to our newest product: Issi Tallow.
To not waste any part of the animal, my Choctaw ancestors used tallow for skin health, cooking, a tool lubricant, leather conditioner, and even used in cultural practices and ceremonies.
Yep, we're on the tallow train now!
Our Issi Tallow has a rich nutrient profile and moisturizing properties. It contains vitamins A, D, and E, as well as fatty acids, which can help hydrate, soften, and protect the skin. Additionally, its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties may be helpful for minor cuts, scrapes, and skin conditions like eczema. This is also in part to the infused botanicals. Generally safe enough to use on babies 6 months and older, but patch test beforehand.
Quadrupled-filtered wild venison tallow infused with lavender, rosemary, grown Calendula, and of course love 🫶🏽
An ancestral choice for those seeking a minimalist approach to skincare. However, this tallow isn't just for skin...
Our tallow can be used to condition and protect leather goods like moccasins, boots, or belts, making them more pliable and waterproof. It could also potentially be used for treating wood items to enhance their durability as well.
