Description
Fat marshmallow is the ultimate healthy skin moisturizer! Biocompatible grass-fed tallow, lightly scented with real vanilla beans and whipped into the creamiest fluff...it's a treat your skin won't forget, and your mouth may be a little jealous of! Slather it on but try not to lick it off! fat marshmallow is quite simply, a whipped tallow skin fluff- a whipped body butter. It is the most pared down & simple of Vellum Street Soap's recipes: tallow, a bit of beeswax, infused with vanilla bean & marshmallow root, with no additional colors or fragrances, plus just a dash of arrowroot added to keep it from being too greasy upon application.
Why tallow? At Vellum Street, they don't believe you should put anything on your skin that you wouldn't put in your mouth. All of their tallow-based soaps, balms, lotions, salts, and candles are made from high quality, food grade ingredients, locally & organically sourced, often from the kitchens of local restaurants & farms in the form of upcycled material that would normally be considered waste.
Tallow is rich in the same types of lipids found in youthful, vibrant skin. The fatty acids in tallow are much closer in molecular structure and size (and therefore, more bioavailable) to the oils our own skin produces, then the plant oils more commonly used in skin care products (which tend to have a larger molecule size). This smaller molecular mass allows the tallow to penetrate the skin barrier, actually reaching below the surface to get a little more than just skin deep!
Aside from its multitude of glorious skin benefits, using tallow from animals raised on small, local, regenerative agricultural focused farms, pastured & humanely raised, is one of the most eco conscious ways to source ingredients.
