Three years ago, TALORA began with a simple problem. Founder John was struggling with persistent dry skin, and nothing on the shelf seemed to help. Lotions felt temporary, creams felt heavy, and too many “solutions” came with long ingredient lists that didn’t match what he actually wanted, something clean, honest, and effective.

So John did what he’s always done. He got curious.

With a lifetime of creativity, an excellent chef who understands quality ingredients, and an ultimate handyman who knows how to build something that truly works, he started researching traditional skincare and what people used long before modern additives and fillers became the norm. That journey led him to tallow: simple, time-tested, and rich in the skin-loving components your body recognizes.

John began experimenting and refining. Not to create a trendy product, just to create the best possible cream for his own skin. Batch after batch, he perfected a pure tallow cream with a smooth texture and a feel that actually helped. It wasn’t complicated. It was intentional.

Soon, friends and family started trying it. They loved it, especially as a healthier, more dependable alternative to conventional lotions. The feedback was consistent: it worked, it felt clean, and it finally made skincare feel simple again.

That’s when the bigger vision took hold.

John didn’t want to keep this as a “family secret.” He wanted to share the best tallow-based skincare he could create; crafted with care, made with purpose, and held to a higher standard than what most people have come to accept as normal.

And that’s how TALORA was born.

TALORA is built on a belief that nature doesn’t need to be overcomplicated. When you focus on simple ingredients, source with intention, and craft with love and precision, you can create something people truly feel good about using, every day.

Our mission is clear: to provide the purest form of tallow-based skincare, crafted with love and perfected through care, so more people can experience what John set out to find in the first place; real relief, real quality, and a return to skincare the way it was meant to be.
