Acne is painful. It's unsightly.
Many people suffer from horrible cystic acne and my teens were no exception.
People try everything in the hopes to clear their skin. Eventually, I discovered what I needed to do to heal my skin from the inside out after many tortorous years in high school with severe cystic acne.
It all starts with the skin being perfectly moisturized.
You see, oil isn’t really the problem. Many people use face washes and other types of skin cleaners to wash their face. However, If you use these cleaners often, they strip your skin of the oils, which makes it want to produce too much oil causing the pore to become inflamed. The oil cleansing method is a great way to bring balance to your skin.
How to do oil cleansing with tallow
How do you do an oil cleanse? If you’re new to the oil cleansing method, here’s how you do it:
- Take a small amount of Whipped Tallow Balm or Bison Balm and massage it into your face. Take your time with this and enjoy it! Think of it as a mini, stress relieving facial massage at the end of the day!
- Get a small towel or wash cloth wet with very warm water (but not so hot it will burn you).
- Drape the wet cloth over your face (make sure you can breathe!) and let it sit for about 1 minute.
- Gently wipe down your face with the cloth you draped over your face.
- Rinse with cool water.
- Pat dry with a clean towel.

If you struggle with acne, oil cleansing with tallow can be really helpful. Oil cleansing for cystic acne is powerful in helping to heal and clear blemishes.
The heat of the warm, wet cloth helps to draw cysts and bring them to a head, completing the cycle and healing acne faster. Oil cleansing with tallow also helps to nourish skin, and the many properties in grass-fed tallow help to heal and clear skin.
