Company Overview: Zero BS Tallow Skin Food is a unique range of Dermatologically Tested and Dermatologist Approved Skin Food with Tallow as its main ingredient.
Our skin food is clinically proven to be highly effective as an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-fungal agent. It nourishes and hydrates the skin, reinforcing its moisture barrier and preventing dehydration.
Tallow is derived from free-range grass-fed cow fat. This mammal fat, is rich in Vitamins A, D, K, and E, as well as Omega-3 fatty acids. These nutrients provide deep nourishment and hydration, while reinforcing the skin’s moisture barrier. It constitutes a natural diet for our skin and boosts the skin’s ability to repair itself. Its ability to enhance hydration and strengthen the protective barrier underlies its therapeutic potential for healthy skin. Part of a generation of waterless skincare solutions that don’t use artificial preservatives to prolong their efficacy. The brand name Zero BS is not accidental. It refers to our approach to ingredients, nothing artificial is added. There is Zero BS. But the brand founders Warren Wilensky and Yael Shapiro also want to play their role in refuting the high level of BS marketing claims that drive so much of the skincare sector.
Zero BS is paraben-free and phthalate-free. It contains no artificial fragrances, no petroleum, and no synthetic chemicals. In fact all the locally sourced ingredients are edible. The Zero BS range can be used for daily maintenance and has been successful in assisting in the healing of various skin conditions such as acne, eczema, psoriasis, and shown incredible results with wound care where it is now being used at a number of hospitals including the Cape Advanced Wound Care Clinic at Christian Barnard Hospital.
We know that we may not be for everyone, and we may offend some vegans. But we choose this route with good reason: using animal fats is the only way to feed the skin its natural diet. Within the skincare innovation arena, fashion trends lead many to seek plant-based solutions. At Zero BS, however, ancient wisdom and modern science point to a different way — animal-based fats. Sometimes, true revolution comes from returning to the place from which we all began.
