Beef tallow - you've seen it everywhere on your socials, but is it really a skincare trend you want to slather on your face? Pharmaceutical scientist and skin educator Hannah English explains what beef tallow actually is, how it interacts with your skin microbiome, and whether there are better alternatives worth reaching for. If you’re confused by the hype, tempted to try it, or just wondering why your feed looks like a skincare-butcher crossover, this one’s for you.
