How Forge Skin’s Beef Tallow Skincare Provides a Natural Alternative

March 20 2025, Published 1:01 a.m. ET
From its face wash to wrinkle defense balm formulated to nourish and hydrate skin and its anti-wrinkle night serum designed for nightly skin repair, Forge Skin is committed to creating skincare treatments that rely on natural, animal-based ingredients like grass-fed beef tallow. It is both a challenge to the rest of an industry dominated by synthetic skincare products and an invitation for a return to natural self-care.

Ancient Wisdom, Modern Science
Forge Skin was founded to fill a gap in the skincare market, tapping into traditional wisdom about methods that work with modern techniques for creating skincare formulas. Rather than relying on complex chemical formulas, Forge Skin’s research and development team finds ways to base its skincare recipes on traditional and time-tested ingredients that allow the skin to rejuvenate naturally. Forge Skin doesn’t simply aim to offer a formula with natural ingredients, a clinically proven formula, or a formula with demonstrated results—it aims to deliver all three.
Forge Skin settled on premium grass-fed beef tallow as the ideal base for its product. Grass-fed beef tallow is rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K. Because it mimics the skin’s own natural oils, a beef tallow balm or face cream helps to hydrate the skin without clogging pores, improving the skin’s vitality and youthful appearance, particularly in men and women aged forty or older. Forge Skin also wanted an ingredient that was traditionally attested and had stood the test of time, and they wanted to simplify skincare routines with all-in-one products without compromising the routine’s effectiveness.

Making Skincare Simple–for Everyone
Skincare can be a sensitive subject for many people entering middle age. Stigmas and cultural ideals around women’s beauty can make natural skin nourishment seem less appealing than a more complex chemical fix, and men may face stigmas surrounding skincare treatments. Forge Skin’s approach to “turning back the clock” is to keep treatments simple and quick to apply, design, and present them in ways that nourish and encourage people, regardless of gender.
The skincare company’s beef tallow creams and moisturizers have resonated with its market; in just its first year, Forge Skin drew over 160,000 customers, establishing itself as a standout natural skincare brand almost overnight. The company’s founder attributes its swift and ongoing success to their commitment to their unique natural ingredients, ethical manufacturing procedures, and results, leading to returning loyal customers and word of mouth spreading about their skincare treatments.
“We regularly receive powerful stories from customers who’ve struggled with synthetic skincare products, experiencing irritation, sensitivities, or disappointing results,” the company’s founders share. “After switching to Forge Skin and discovering skincare solutions sourced from raw, natural elements like beef tallow, their skin transformed, restoring not just their appearance, but their confidence too.”
What’s Next for Forge Skin
Looking ahead, Forge Skin hopes to take its treatment across the world, inspiring millions worldwide to pursue natural self-care, shifting away from synthetic skincare products to more traditional, natural skincare creams.
