How to Get the Most Out of Your Tallow Deodorant

Our tallow deodorant is intentionally different from conventional deodorants—and that’s a good thing. Made with grass-fed tallow, baking soda, and thoughtfully chosen ingredients, it works with your body instead of masking odor with harsh chemicals or synthetic fragrances.

Because natural deodorant functions differently than antiperspirants, understanding how to use it properly will help you get the very best results.

What Makes Tallow Deodorant Different?

Unlike traditional antiperspirants that block sweat glands with aluminum, our tallow deodorant allows your body to sweat naturally while targeting odor at the source.

  • Grass-fed tallow nourishes the skin and supports a healthy skin barrier

  • Baking soda neutralizes odor-causing bacteria

  • Natural oils and waxes help the deodorant glide on smoothly and stay effective

Sweating is a normal and healthy process. Odor happens when bacteria break down sweat—our deodorant is designed to stop that process, not shut your body down.

Tips for Best Results

1. Start with Clean, Dry Skin

Apply your deodorant to freshly washed, completely dry underarms. This gives the baking soda a clean surface to neutralize odor effectively.

2. Use a Light Hand

A little goes a long way. One to two light swipes per underarm is plenty. Over-applying can cause buildup and may increase the chance of irritation, especially if you’re new to baking soda deodorants.

3. Give Your Body Time to Adjust

If you’re switching from a conventional deodorant or antiperspirant, your body may need time to rebalance. During the first 1–2 weeks, you may notice:

  • Increased sweating

  • Temporary odor

  • A feeling that it’s “not working yet”

This is normal. Your body is recalibrating after years of sweat suppression. Stick with it—most people see significant improvement after the adjustment period.

4. Reapply as Needed

Because this is a natural deodorant, reapplication may be helpful during:

  • Heavy physical activity

  • Hot weather

  • High-stress days

That doesn’t mean it isn’t working—it means your body is doing what it’s meant to do.

5. Listen to Your Skin

Our deodorant contains baking soda, which is highly effective at neutralizing odor. However, some skin types are more sensitive than others. If irritation occurs:

  • Reduce application amount

  • Apply once daily instead of twice

  • Take a short break and reintroduce slowly

Most people tolerate baking soda very well when used correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this deodorant stop sweating?

No—and that’s intentional. Sweating is a healthy bodily function. Our deodorant controls odor, not sweat.

Why does it take time to work when switching?

Conventional antiperspirants clog sweat glands and disrupt your skin’s natural microbiome. When you stop using them, your body needs time to normalize sweat and bacteria levels.

Is baking soda safe for skin?

Yes. Baking soda has been used for generations as a natural odor neutralizer. While some people with very sensitive skin may need to adjust usage, many find it extremely effective and gentle when applied correctly.

Why does less product work better?

Applying too much can trap moisture and increase friction. A thin, even layer allows the ingredients to do their job without overwhelming the skin.

Will this stain my clothes?

Our formula is designed to absorb well into the skin. Allow it a moment to absorb before getting dressed to avoid transfer.

What if it doesn’t work for me?

Everyone’s body chemistry is different. If you’ve given it a fair adjustment period and proper use and it’s still not the right fit, we’re always happy to help you troubleshoot or find a better solution.

A Better Way to Care for Your Skin

Your skin absorbs what you put on it every day. Our tallow deodorant is crafted with ingredients your body recognizes—nothing unnecessary, nothing harsh.

Stick with it, use it intentionally, and give your body the time it deserves to reset.
Better ingredients. Better function. Better care.

Our Whipped Tallow Cream is made with just a few pure, simple ingredients: Certified organic, grass-fed tallow – the star of the show, rich in vitamins and skin-nourishing fats. Organic cold-pressed olive oil – adds extra moisture and helps the cream spread smoothly. Pure essential oils – for natural fragrance (or none at all in our unscented version). That’s it—no fillers, no chemicals, no preservatives. Just wholesome ingredients your skin will love.
Yes. We know fragrance isn’t for everyone—especially those with allergies, sensitivities, or babies. That’s why we offer unscented versions of our creams, balms, and deodorants. Because our tallow is rendered at low temperatures to preserve its full nutrient profile, it does have a very slight natural “beefy” scent. This is normal, subtle, and fades quickly after application. It’s simply the mark of pure, nutrient-rich tallow.
Yes. Tallow is naturally rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, and it supports the skin’s natural healing process. Many customers use our creams and salves to help calm irritation, soothe chapped skin, and restore balance to dry or damaged areas.
It depends on how often you use it, but most customers find that a 4 oz jar of Whipped Tallow Cream lasts about 1–2 months with daily use. A little goes a long way because our formula is highly concentrated.
Our tallow isn’t just grass-fed—it’s certified organic and exclusively kidney suet tallow, the highest quality you can source. Combined with carefully chosen oils and pure essential oils, our products mimic the skin’s natural barrier and deliver deep nourishment without compromise.
Yes. We never test on animals. Our tallow comes as a byproduct from small, U.S.-based family farms that already raise cattle for food, so nothing goes to waste. It’s a sustainable way to repurpose and honor every part of the animal.
Yes! Tallow is one of the most skin-friendly moisturizers you can find. Because it’s so similar to the natural oils our skin produces, it absorbs easily without clogging pores or causing irritation. Our organic, grass-fed tallow is especially gentle and nutrient-rich, making it a great option for sensitive skin, babies, and anyone prone to dryness, redness, or flare-ups. Of course, everyone’s skin is unique—so if you’re trying it for the first time, we recommend a small patch test just to be safe.
Yes. Our products are formulated with simple, natural ingredients that work in harmony with your skin. Grass-fed, organic tallow closely resembles the oils your skin naturally produces, which allows it to absorb deeply without clogging pores. Olive oil and our carefully chosen essential oils are also gentle and skin-friendly. While everyone’s skin is unique, most people find our products safe and effective for daily use—even on sensitive or breakout-prone skin.
Yes—whenever they can be. Our tallow is always certified organic and grass-fed, and about 99% of our ingredients are organic as well. There are just a couple of exceptions where “organic” can’t honestly be claimed. For example, beeswax—because no one can truly control where bees fly. We’re also very particular about our essential oils. They’re always pure and sourced from trusted brands. While organic versions are often harder to come by, we go out of our way to use them whenever possible. Our promise is simple: we source the cleanest, purest ingredients we can find—prioritizing organic every time it’s available.
Yes. Our creams, balms, and salves are made with simple, natural ingredients—like certified organic, grass-fed tallow and cold-pressed olive oil—that are safe and nourishing for delicate skin. Many parents love using them to help soothe dryness, cradle cap, and everyday irritation. Because babies’ skin is extra sensitive, we always recommend starting with our unscented options and doing a small patch test first. This way, you can feel confident knowing it works gently with your little one’s skin.
We do our best to ship orders out within 1–2 business days. Delivery times depend on the shipping method you select at checkout, but most U.S. orders arrive within 3–5 business days once shipped. You’ll receive a tracking number as soon as your order is on its way, so you can follow it right to your door.
No refrigeration is required. Our creams and balms are shelf-stable and store best at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and extreme heat. If your product softens in warmer weather, just place it in a cooler spot—it won’t affect its quality.
No. Every TAGG Organics product is made with clean, simple ingredients you can trust—without synthetic preservatives, fillers, or hidden chemicals. Our formulas are naturally stable and long-lasting thanks to the purity of our tallow and oils.
