I'm preparing GALLOWAY body butter from purified beef tallow, I add vitamin E for antioxidant support and Biogard 221 to ensure preservation. Tallow is biologically compatible with the skin, it melts on the skin, absorbs well and supports the skin's natural protective barrier.
Vitamins & fatty acids (why beef tallow is good for the skin)
Beef tallow naturally contains vitamins important for the skin:
-
Vitamin A – supports skin renewal
-
Vitamin D – helps maintain the balance of the skin'smicrobiome
-
Vitamin E – protects cells from oxidative stress
-
Vitamin K – helps reduce redness and supports healing
Natural fatty acids that make the skin pleasantly soft:
-
Oleic acid (ω-9) – softens and helps the active ingredients to distribute better
-
Stearic acid – strengthens the skin's protective barrier, reduces moisture loss
-
Palmitic acid – nourishes and protects dry areas
-
Linoleic acid (ω-6) – supports the barrier function, suitable for dry and delicate skin
The body butter is suitable for use on the whole body and face, as well as on sensitive and damaged areas.
Also suitable for:
🟢 After being in the sun - soothes and nourishes dry, tanned or slightly irritated skin
(NB! Not suitable for fresh sunburn, use only when the redness and heat have subsided.)
🟢 For protection against frost damage and weather damage – restores the skin's protective barrier
🟢 For minor abrasions and surface scratches – softens and accelerates skin regeneration
🟢 After shaving – soothes irritated skin and helps prevent redness
🟢 For the prevention and relief of diaper rash in babies – a natural protective layer that breathes
🟢 For the care of dry and chapped skin (hands, heels, elbows)
GALLOWAY is unscented, it has a soft and neutral aroma characteristic of beef tallow.
Try together with beef tallow body soap, to create a true skincare experience.
What is Biogard 221?
Biogard 221 is a small but important protection in your ointment. It is a mixture of two ingredients: dehydroacetic acid (keeps microbes under control) and benzyl alcohol (also occurs naturally in the aromas of many plants).
There is very little of it in the body buter - just enough to keep the product fresh and safe, without changing the smell or feel of the skin.
Why am I adding this to Galloway?
Although GALLOWAY is water-free, in real life some moisture gets into the jar (wet hands, bathroom, baby care).
Biogard 221 provides additional security - it helps prevent the growth of microbes when moisture gets into the jar.
For sensitive skin: always do a small test on the forearm. For external use only.






Evi –
I have very sensitive skin and have not yet found any cream that does not cause acne on my skin. Your skin butter doesn't, so it's perfect for me. I will order another time.
Maris –
I'm really glad Evi that you finally found a product suitable for your sensitive skin - pure joy 🥰. Thank you very much for the feedback 💚
