Made in the USA — Crafted with Purpose and Purity
Our Bison Tallow Skincare Products embody mindful craftsmanship, purity, and sustainability. Each small batch of True Image Tallow is meticulously handcrafted in the USA using wildcrafted, organic, and non-toxic ingredients. Every jar reflects our commitment to quality, nourishing your skin while honoring eco-conscious and sustainable values.
We proudly partner with a local, small family ranch in North Dakota, sourcing premium bison kidney suet directly from grass-fed bison raised on pesticide-free native grasslands. Delivered straight to our studio, each batch of suet is carefully cleaned and dry-rendered in-house to ensure unmatched freshness and quality. The result is a superior bison tallow—rich, consistent, and naturally restorative.
Our close relationship with local ranchers guarantees a pure and reliable fatty acid profile, eliminating the inconsistencies found in mass-market or mixed-source products. This trusted partnership allows us to maintain the highest skincare standards, ensuring every product you use delivers powerful, nutrient-dense results.
By choosing our handcrafted skincare, you’re investing in more than exceptional skin health—you’re supporting sustainable ranching, ethical sourcing, and environmental preservation for generations to come. Experience the difference that true purity and purpose can make—for your skin and for the planet.
Can Bison Tallow Work for All Skin Types?
Yes — bison tallow is a natural emollient that supports nearly every skin type. Its composition closely resembles human sebum, helping balance oil production and strengthen the skin barrier.
Sensitive skin: Soothes redness, irritation, and inflammation.
Dry or mature skin: Provides deep, lasting hydration and softens rough patches.
Oily or acne-prone skin: Helps clarify and calm breakouts with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
Many estheticians recommend bison tallow for acne-prone and reactive skin, as it absorbs easily without clogging pores. Our suggestion would be our “Baby Cream.”For best results, use a small amount and patch test new products before regular use.
While it may not be perfect for everyone, most users find bison tallow delivers balanced, radiant, and healthy-looking skin naturally.
Does Tallow Cause Clogged Pores?
When made from high-quality, pure bison tallow, this natural emollient is actually a solution to clogged pores—not the cause. Rich in linoleic acid, bison tallow helps balance oil production, strengthen the skin’s lipid barrier, and maintain a clear, smooth complexion.
Studies and anecdotal evidence suggest that tallow has a low (2) comedogenic rating, meaning it typically does not clog pores for most skin types. In fact, properly dry rendered bison tallow provides “friendly” fatty acids that closely resemble human sebum, helping the skin regulate its own oil levels naturally. However, as with any topical product, individual results vary—so we always recommend a simple patch test before regular use.
At True Image Tallow, we enhance our handcrafted bison tallow mainly with organic cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil and organic golden jojoba oil—both known for centuries for their balancing and moisturizing properties.
For best results, apply a small amount of bison tallow to clean, slightly damp skin and let it absorb naturally. Experience luxurious hydration and a clear, radiant complexion that reflects your True Image.

"I have been using the product for a few months and love it. I wash hands and use hand sanitizer (natural that I make-but still drying with so many uses every day) all day long as a medical provider, so I started using at end of each shift on just my hands and notice a huge difference already. Excited for my next order!"

"This product is incredible! I had red hair and very fair skin, and now at age 69 my face was really starting to show the negative effects of sun exposure. I’ve used lots of different products to care for my skin but True Image Tallow is THE only product that has made a visible and tactile difference. Reduced wrinkles, super soft skin and even made some sun damaged areas disappear. I use a little bit every day and am a believer!"
