Lard

Pasture-Raised, Pure, Hand-Rendered USA Lard feeds your hair and skin extra-nourishing balanced fatty acids and the world’s highest Vitamin D3 content, second only to cod liver oil. Lard has been used in haircare since medieval times for skin health, hair growth, and hair health management. Our lard is carefully hand-rendered to keep its precious rare nutrients in-tact.

Lard is the 2nd fat in the world that is highest in Vitamin D3, second only to cod liver oil! Vitamin D3 is the most bioavailable form of Vitamin D. Vitamin D delivers a myriad of health benefits, including supporting healthy skin and hair. As it turns out, Vitamin D3 in its activated form does all the wonders on your skin regeneration and other metabolic functions in the skin. Vitamin D3 is also involved in various signaling pathways in the hair follicle and has a direct (and critical) role in the hair growth (aka anagen) phase. Topical application of vitamin D3 has been shown to render protection against damage caused to the skin by UV light. Vitamin D3 reduces cell death, promotes cell survival, and reduces redness and inflammation.

Pasture-Raised, properly fed lard is low on the comedogenic scale: it will not clog pores nor cause inflammation, in fact it may help with those issues. Since it is slightly higher in unsaturated fatty acids, it provides a more bubbly lather and a squeakier clean.

Our Lard is:

• Slowly and carefully hand-rendered in our facility from the farm-fresh raw source

• NEVER bleached or ultra-processed for a “white look”

• Pasture-Raised from LOCAL and USA small family farms

Buttermilk

Local, Raw, Farm-Fresh, Grass-fed, Hand-Cultured Buttermilk to feed your skin the perfect food – high in essential vitamins, minerals, proteins, and fatty acids. Full-fat Jersey cow buttermilk is higher than goat milk in lactic acid and has the same moisturization content. The famously beautiful Egyptian Queen Cleopatra was a wise proponent, bathing in fresh buttermilk daily.

Buttermilk is high in multiple different proteins, vitamins, and minerals. Farm-fresh, raw buttermilk can have dozens of naturally occurring probiotics along with alpha-hydroxy acids like lactic acid, which promote cell renewal and rejuvenation of beauty factors such as brightness, tone, and complexion maintenance. Milk is considered a “complete protein” and “near-perfect food” meaning it contains all nine of the essential amino acids necessary for your body to function at an optimal level, plus all the essential Omega 3, 6, & 9 fatty acids in balanced proportions in addition to most of the vitamins and minerals your body needs. And buttermilk is even better! If raw milk can grow a baby calf into a cow within a few months, think of what it does to your hair!

Our Buttermilk is:

• Slowly and carefully hand-cultured from the farm-fresh raw source

• When the farm-fresh raw buttermilk arrives in our facility, it is frozen and used first-in, first-out to ensure the best nutrient content

• Grass-Fed and Pasture-Raised from LOCAL small family farms

Mica Mineral Pigments

A very small amount of Cosmetic-Grade Mica Mineral Pigments helps each soap look unique and attractive in their own special color for a fun experience! This also lessens confusion between other soaps during use. Will not clog pores, or stain surfaces. This is the same main ingredient in natural cosmetic make-ups.

Fragrance Oils

Phthalate-Free and Paraben-Free Fragrance Oils are included for a familiar and comforting scent. Did you know that most body care shoppers make their purchase decisions based solely on scent satisfaction? The olfactory system is directly related to emotions and memories, which is why scents are such an important factor for many. Please keep in mind that not including phthalates and parabens will reduce the scent hold, decreasing the linger time and strength compared to what many are used to with store-bought products. Learn more about our safer fragrance oils HERE and read about this product’s scent and scent strength in the product’s scent tab.

Don’t settle for anything less than the absolute best for your hair and skin
