Brie Bacon • June 7, 2024

Sunburns can ruin a great day out in the sun.

When your skin gets red, itchy, and painful, all you want is relief. Most people reach for lotions or aloe gels, but there's a hidden remedy, not everyone knows about: beef tallow from grass-fed and grass-finished suet beef.


This special ingredient is packed with vitamins A, D, E, and K which are perfect for soothing and healing sunburned skin. At Allow Nourishment, we harness this powerful natural remedy to create skincare products that provide relief and nourish your skin back to health.


Understanding why our skin peels after getting burned by the sun helps us find better ways to take care of it. That’s where our unique approach comes in - using tallow-based products can help replenish what the sun has taken away from your skin and promote healing naturally without harsh chemicals.


Besides applying our high-quality tallow skincare solutions directly to affected areas, there are other important steps you should follow like wearing loose clothing and staying hydrated to help your skin recover more quickly.


Preventing sunburn before it happens is also key; wearing sunscreen should be part of everyone's daily routine.


With simple yet effective remedies at hand provided by our Tallow Face & Body Creams and some best practices to follow for treating sunburns preventively as well as reactively make all the difference in how swiftly you bounce back from being burned by the sun.

Understanding Sunburn and its Causes

Sunburn happens when your skin gets too much sun. It damages your skin and makes it red and sore. Different types of sunburn can hurt your skin in various ways, like causing it to peel as it tries to heal itself.


When you get a sunburn, you are damaging the cells and tissues in your skin, which is why it's so important to protect yourself from getting burnt in the first place.

Types of sunburns

Sunburns vary in severity and effect on the skin. Some people might just get a light pink tint to their skin, while others experience deep redness, pain, and even blisters. These differences mainly depend on your skin type, how long you were in the sun, and whether you used sunscreen.


After too much sun exposure, your skin starts to heal by peeling off damaged cells. This process is uncomfortable and leaves your skin more vulnerable to further damage. During this time, it's crucial to moisturize and help repair these hurt skin cells.


Our Tallow Face & Body Creams are gentle yet effective in aiding the healing process.


Let's talk about this natural reaction and how you can support your body through it.

Why skin peels after a sunburn

Transitioning from understanding the types of sunburns, it's critical to address why skin peels following a sunburn. This peeling is your body's way of healing. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun damages the top layer of your skin, leading to inflammation and redness.


To recover, your body sheds this damaged outer layer to make room for new, healthy skin cells. Think of it as your skin hitting the reset button after being harmed.


At Allow Nourishment, we stress that proper care is essential during this recovery phase. The process can be uncomfortable and leave your skin vulnerable. That’s why turning to gentle and natural remedies like tallow offered under our brand can support healing.


Unlike harsh chemical treatments that might irritate sensitive post-sunburn skin, tallow skincare is a soothing experience that promotes regeneration without direct contact or additional damage to the already stressed epidermis.


Keep in mind; that maintaining hydration and avoiding further UV exposure are key steps to speedy recovery while allowing innovative solutions like our tallow skincare products to nurture and protect new skin cells emerging post-peel.

How to Use

Shifting from the benefits of beef tallow, let’s focus on how you can effectively use this natural remedy. Our products provide soothing relief for sunburned skin, and here’s a guide to applying them correctly.


  1. Start by gently cleaning the affected area with cool water to remove any sunscreen or sweat. Pat your skin dry with a soft towel instead of rubbing it.
  2. Take a small amount of our tallow product in your hands.
  3. Gently massage the tallow onto your sunburned skin using circular motions. This helps in better absorption and avoids putting too much pressure on sensitive areas.
  4. Sleep in loose clothing to avoid irritation on the treated areas overnight. This ensures that the skin can breathe and heal more effectively.
  5. Apply tallow-based products as needed throughout the day, especially after showering or bathing when your skin is clean and warm.
  6. Keep hydrated and drink plenty of water to support your skin's healing process from within.
  7. Avoid further sun exposure while your skin is healing. Cover up with lightweight clothing or stay in shaded areas if you need to be outdoors.


By following these steps, you can use Tallow Face & Body Creams to soothe and heal sunburned skin naturally. Regular application leaves your skin feeling repaired, supple, and glowing without harsh chemicals or artificial fragrances.

Scented or Unscented

After learning how to use tallow for sunburn relief, the next step is deciding between scented and unscented options. We cater to both! Some of you prefer your skincare products without any fragrance, especially if your skin is sensitive or if you are prone to allergies.


Our unscented beef tallow cream provides intense moisture without added fragrances that can sometimes irritate sunburned skin.

  2. Bright Start Face & Body Cream

For those who enjoy a bit of aroma in their skincare routine, our scented versions offer natural relief with a pleasant sensory experience. We carefully select essential oils that not only smell good but also have properties to soothe and heal the skin further.


Whether you choose scented or unscented, each balm delivers the same amount of nourishing and healing benefits for sunburnt skin.


With Allow Nourishment, rest assured that every option is crafted to pamper and protect your skin while aiding in faster recovery from sunburns.


Best Practices for Treating Sunburn

Treating sunburn effectively is crucial for your skin's health and comfort. At Allow Nourishment, we emphasize gentle care and natural remedies to help heal and soothe your sunburned skin.


  1. Wear loose clothing over the affected area. This reduces irritation and allows your skin to breathe, speeding up the healing process.
  2. Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Staying hydrated helps your body recover faster from sunburn by replenishing lost fluids.
  3. Moisturize your skin with Tallow by Allow Nourishment products. Our tallow-based moisturizers are packed with nutrients that nourish and repair sun-damaged skin, leaving it supple and glowing.
  4. Avoid further exposure to the sun while you're healing. If you need to go outside, cover up the burned areas with clothing or wear a wide-brimmed hat for protection.
  5. Keep the sunburned area clean to prevent infection. Gently wash with mild soap and cool water during your daily shower.
  6. Insight: If blisters form, do not pop them—they’re part of your body’s healing process—cover them gently without applying pressure.
  7. Seek shade whenever outdoors, especially between 10 A.M. and 4 P.M when UV rays are strongest; this prevents further damage while your sunburn heals.


The path to recovering from a sunburn involves more than just one step or product; it's about nurturing your skin back to health with patience and care using effective, natural solutions like Tallow skincare.


Wear loose clothing

Moving forward from the essential sunburn treatments, another key step is to wear loose clothing. This simple yet effective method promotes air circulation around the skin, allowing it to breathe and heal quickly.


Tight clothes can rub against sunburnt areas, causing discomfort and potentially slowing down the healing process. By choosing garments made of soft, breathable fabrics like cotton, you provide your skin with the gentle environment it needs for recovery.


We understand that relief from sunburn isn't just about external applications but also how you treat your skin throughout its healing journey. Pairing loose clothing with proper skincare treatments such as Clear Nourish enhances your skin's ability to repair itself effectively.


It's a combination that supports natural healing processes without compromising on comfort or care.

Drink plenty of water

Keeping your body hydrated is essential, especially after getting sunburnedDrinking lots of water helps your skin heal faster by replenishing the moisture lost from too much sun exposure.


This simple step can make a big difference in how quickly you recover. We always emphasize the importance of hydration as part of any skincare routine.


Alongside gulping down glasses of water, applying our nourishing products directly on your skin can further aid in healing and provide the extra moisture your skin desperately needs post-sunburn.


Our unique approach to skincare combines internal hydration with topical relief for optimal recovery and health.

Avoid further sun exposure

Stay out of the sun to let your skin heal. Sunburn can get worse with more exposure. Keep in shaded areas or indoors during peak sun hours.


Wear hats and long sleeves if you must be outside. This protects your skin from getting more damage. Use Tallow Face & Body Cream for a gentle healing process on your damaged skin, offering a soothing remedy without further exposing it to harmful rays.

Prevention is Key

Preventing sunburn should always be your first line of defense against skin damage. Always apply sunscreen before heading outdoors to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.

Importance of wearing sunscreen

Wearing sunscreen every day is vital for protecting your skin from harmful UV rays. These rays can cause sunburn, lead to premature aging, and increase your risk of skin cancer. By applying sunscreen, you shield your body from damage and keep your skin looking healthy.


Make it a habit to put on sunscreen before going outside, even on cloudy days. Choose a product with broad-spectrum protection to guard against both UVA and UVB radiation.


After time in the sun, apply our Tallow Face & Body Creams to your skin to immediately begin repairing skin cells.

When to seek medical attention for sunburn

If your sunburn brings severe pain, blisteringfever, chills, nausea, or dizziness, these are signs you need medical attention. Severe sunburns can worsen without proper care and may need a doctor's evaluation and treatment to prevent complications.


Protect yourself by knowing when it's time to seek help.


Allow Nourishment advises that after getting the necessary medical attention for severe sunburns, integrating gentle skin care practices is crucial for recovery. Incorporating Tallow Face & Body Creams into your routine can support the healing process by soothing inflammation and promoting skin regeneration.
