Our Story

Cow Fat Cosmetics is a family owned company located on the Upper Eastside of Texas, in the Piney Woods. 

Our family (for generations) has always been involved in farming: chickens, cattle, calves, horses, and growing corn and soybeans. We have always been a part of the land, even when we ran our restaurant for 23 years.

Moving from the farmlands of the Midwest, we found ourselves gravitating to the land of tall grasses and longhorn cattle. And still we have horses, and land. 

When the dust settled from retiring from the restaurant business, we grew restless, and knew we were bound to start another business.

My husband is lucky to have baby soft skin, but I have always had issues with dry skin and a bit of acne later in life. Not one for lots of cosmetic products (especially those with fragrance), I looked for an alternative. And when I found the right recipe for tallow based moisturizers, and skin products, I hit the jackpot. 

I started mixing recipes for lip scrubs (dry lips are the bane of my existence), moisturizers, and sunscreens (tallow has a natural SPF all by itself). After researching the benefits, I thought my friends would love this too. 

And that's how Cow Fat Cosmetics came to be.
