FAQ

"Why tallow?"

Beef tallow from well cared for,  grass-fed cows is high in conjugated linoleic acid, B vitamins, Vitamin K2, Niacin, Selenium, Iron, Phosphorus, potassium and riboflavin. All these nutrients are vital in our own bodies for energy, hormone balance, oil production and not to mention their anti-aging benefits.

"How do I use Hafen products?"

Hafen products are meant to replace lotions and creams that hold synthetic or toxic ingredients. The best way to use the Whipped Tallow is by applying it to thicker areas of skin, such as elbows, behind the knees, neck, shoulders, face and feet.

The Hafen Body Oil is meant to lock in moisture. Best use is to apply after you have showered or bathed. Use liberally over your entire body or use a little at a time. A little goes a long way, but it feels so good why not use as much as you want!

"Do you use Fragrance?"

Fragrance in conventional products can contain up to 3000 toxic ingredients. Hafen utilizes wild harvest plants, herbs, and essential oils to boost the healing properties of each of our products. You can be sure you will never find FRAGRANCE in our ingredients.

"Are you concerned about Grapeseed oil?

Yes and No. Conventional grapeseed oil is highly processed on high heat with a host of chemicals to extract. High heat and chemicals unfortunately takes out the vital nutrients and oxidizes the grapeseed oil which puts our body in jeopardy, especially if used for cooking. Organic coldpressed grapeseed oil is not touched with chemicals and heat is not required to expel it from the seed. This ensures the oil is as natural as it is from the vine and gives us the essential fatty acids, vitamin E and oelic acid our body needs to decrease inflammation.
