Oil Cleansing with Tallow | OIL CLEANSING METHOD | Bumblebee Apothecary

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Have you tried the oil cleansing method?

[@Kimber261]

Bumblebee Apothecary , I just bought some grass fed beef tallow and at room temp at 70 F it is not solid. It not totally liquid but if you turn it over it will move. Is this normal?

[@Oceansteve]

Not tried it yet, but it looks interesting. I wonder if having two stage soap would help, ie oil cleansing then regular soap clensing and then a moisurising (tallow moisturiser).. im gonna have to experiment. TY

[@amyvonderchek3058]

I tried OCM and it didn’t turn out well. Large cystic acne and some angry skin. People say I did it wrong. I’m currently using a DIY foaming cleanser and using your balm for moisturizer when I need it.

[@veroniquekaconlon973]

I am SO glad there is an animal based oil cleansing video finally. I have loved tallow for a year or so and never thought of using it for oil cleansing! SO thankful for your videos about tallow.Thank you.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

You're very welcome, I'm so glad you're as excited about it as I am! :)

@@bumblebeeapothecary I am planning to purchase a tub of tallow for food prep and skin care. Can I just use the tallow as is? Is there a benefit to whipping it? What is in a tallow balm? Thanks in advance.

[@NikkiSchumacherOfficial]

Ok mentor me woman! I have found a new wonderful channel. Thank you!!

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Haha thank you! :)

[@kakachunna5930]

Made tallow watching your recipe and made balm today.. This is amazing. Going to gift that to my friends tomorrow. Plz tell me the shelf life of this balm

[@estradioloa151]

I love your posts. I am going to try using grass fed beef tallow as food and a skin care. I would only replace sugar to a Himalayan pink salt in the facial scrubs. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Thanks! I find that salt is too harsh for the face, but sugar is gentler. I like the salt for other areas of the body, like feet :)

[@jujufirefly]

Hi Marissa, have you ever used tallow for oil pulling?

[@NourishmentRedacted]

This is incredibly interesting! Does this help with rosacea?

[@lisarogers3084]

I looove your videos. Thank you so much. I will make some of your products and let you know how I get on. xxx

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Thank you!! :)

Hi, Marisa! I recently made the tallow cream and enjoy it. My question concerns cleaning items used with tallow. How best to clean the bowls/utensils used in making the balms/creams? I’ve been using paper towels and dish soap but want to be less wasteful. I’ve searched for some ideas online, but I haven’t found much on how to clean pots/ovens/etc. that have tallow/lard/etc. spots that don’t involve something store-bought. What about cleaning the towels or even pillowcases/shirts/fabrics that come into contact with the tallow balm? I’m a little apprehensive to put them in the washer or hand wash them in the sink.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Great question! I use a paper towel to wipe everything before washing. If you use reusable rags, they still end up in the washer, so that's not a great solution either. I take comfort in the fact that the biodegradable, nontoxic paper towels decompose and are compostable. I hope that helps!

[@m310trading4]

For me I hand wash them with hot water

[@ΘΕΟΛΟΓΙΑΜΙΧΟΠΟΥΛΟΥ]

I made the whipped tallow cream. And it's awesome. Thanks

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Oh wonderful! I'm so glad you like it!

[@ΘΕΟΛΟΓΙΑΜΙΧΟΠΟΥΛΟΥ]

@@bumblebeeapothecary yes very much. Now it's time for soap.The soap bar

[@foxyauragems6146]

Here for it 💎💕

[@nine1055]

I think this is good to do after doing 30% TCA peeling. (After a week. Not while peeling). 😊

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Thanks for the tip!

[@anonymoususer1231]

Do you use tallow in your hair? And if you do once you wash it out, does it still feel oily?

[@saraderby493]

Hi Marissa! I made your tallow balm and it turned out a little gritty. It does rub in good once it gets warm and I don’t mind the texture but wanted to see if I did something wrong it making it or if that’s a normal texture? Thank you! So happy I found you!

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Great question! You didn't do anything wrong, but when you use softer trim fat (instead of hard leaf fat) it will develop that texture when the fat molecules separate when it cools slowly. To avoid this, make it cool quickly, such as in a freezer before whipping :)

[@bo816]

Great video! Thank you! Can I use lard instead tallow?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Thanks! Tallow has more nutrients than lard, but you could use it and it should work pretty well :)

[@tonikogorkowy]

Dear Marisa, will a good duck/ goose tallow do the same good treat for my skin? I have problems with getting beef tallow in my city, so I bought a goose one. But surely it smells intense even when I use essential oils. Thank you

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

If they are from free range/pasture fed ducks or geese, it might have some of the same benefits for skin. Usually those are more for cooking, so that's probably why it has a stronger smell. I've never tried purifying those kinds of fats, but that might be something you could try. See this video for how I purify tallow: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2W4mo2badKdo8k Hope that helps!

[@tonikogorkowy]

@@bumblebeeapothecary thank you :) I've found a good quality free range geese meat, so I did from it ( your way :) ) a small amount of fat and well... I though it would smell not as intense as it does :D Thank you once again :) Regards from Europe :)

[@SweetOsoka]

@@tonikogorkowy you know what. I have seen emu oil for skin i think duck fat would be good too.

[@Brendan-CoachingStar]

Hi! Do you use soap on your face?

[@cottontailsarah]

Is it okay to use store bought tallow? I used EPIC brand already rendered grass fed tallow from Sprouts and mixed jojoba oil.

[@TheLeisamarie]

This is super helpful! Thank you so much! Just an fyi, the blog link isn't working this morning 😪

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Thanks for the heads up! It seems to be working for me. Here's the link: bumblebeeapothecary.com/oil-cleansing-with-tallow/

[@amyvonderchek3058]

What would you do if I wear makeup? Should I do it twice or do you find that it removes all makeup?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

I actually use this for removing makeup: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mWXMmJ6jj9-hibs

[@amyvonderchek3058]

@@bumblebeeapothecary I’m just worried that coconut oil would mess it up even more…however, I haven’t had good luck with any of the other oils. I’ve been doing a tallow/castor/lavender oil blend cleanser for about 4 days. Should I keep doing just this before I try the one with coconut oil?

[@jessicahayes8701]

Do you do this before or after removing makeup? And do you do it morning and night?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Good questions! I should have said how often I do it. I usually remove my makeup first, and I do it once a day in the evening.

[@kandilla]

I saw your link to your makeup remover video and watched that too, but how do you use the makeup remover? Just on your eyes or all over your face, prior to oil cleansing? And what’s your method? Just rub it on them wipe off with a washcloth? Thanks :)

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

For the eye makeup remover, I just use it on my eyes. For oil cleansing, I do my whole face :)

[@mikemcclernon5784]

Great video, magnificent content! 100%

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Thank you so much!

[@Moresco24]

I have congested skin, will this help enough? Along with the tallow scrub?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Yes, this was very helpful for me when I had problems with congested skin! The tallow scrub also.

[@amyvonderchek3058]

If I made the whipped one and it’s more solid than whipped did I not add enough apricot oil? Should I gently melt it and add more and whip it again?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Yes, if you're using hard tallow, it might need more liquid oil. You can melt it, add some more, chill, and rewhip :)

[@risenqueen7751]

Does it only work with Beef tallow or can you use other animals too? Like deer?

[@chrisbaker2605]

Works with other animals as well. Try bison!

[@PR-pe9oc]

How often do u do this?

[@MonicaYoder]

I would want to try tallow for my face but my skin is very sensitive and can clog very easily.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Tallow doesn't clog pores, and is so pure and natural :)

[@helloman5576]

Is it good for seborrheic dermatitis or eczema? Thanks! :)

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Yes! I've heard many people say it is very helpful!

[@Marthawehrly]

I use it to remove makeup

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Wonderful! I haven't found tallow to be the best at removing makeup, so I use coconut oil for that.

[@Marthawehrly]

I’m sorry I should clarify that better. It is a mix of coconut and tallow. It took a bit to get the ratio right for my skin type but, it works well.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Oh that's a great idea! I will have to try it. Thanks!

[@Marthawehrly]

Even works on mascara which shocked me

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

@@Marthawehrly That's awesome!
