THE SCIENCE OF TALLOW

At the heart of our product range is Talloren®, a unique, stabilised form of pure tallow that we've crafted and refined over the years through a specialised rendering and heating process. With no added ingredients, Talloren® is the active component in our Zero BS product range, and is scientifically proven to provide optimal therapeutic performance and consistency.

We’ve harnessed the potent healing properties of Fynbos that include wild-grown, medicinal plants indigenous to the Cape and sub-Saharan biomes.  These South African Botanicals are scientifically proven to work in synergy with Talloren® to reduce inflammation, accelerate healing and support the skin’s natural resilience.

ZERO BS LEADS THE CHARGE IN AFRICA

SKIN CARE REVOLUTION

We know that we may not be for everyone, and we may offend some vegans. But we choose this route with good reason: using animal fats is the only way to feed the skin its natural diet.
Within the skincare innovation arena, fashion trends lead many to seek plant-based solutions. At ZERO BS, however, ancient wisdom and modern science point to a different way — animal-based fats.

Sometimes, true revolution comes from returning to the place from which we all began.

ZERO BS - A 360° APPROACH

WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET

100% Natural Product with ZERO additives. ZERO Parabens. ZERO chemicals. In other words, no added BS.
ZERO BS is 100 percent biodegradable. Unlike petroleum-based skincare products, our impact on the environment amounts to ZERO.

Aware of the high degree of BS claims in the skincare industry, we will never include un-named, mis-named or unpronounceable ingredients.

Love the healing balm by ZERO BS. Made my first purchase at Faithful to Nature a year and a half ago to heal eczema breakouts and have since enjoyed the product for almost everything! Healing open pores, as an aftershave, healing fragile nails. Name it <3 Love Healing Balm, will to die on that Beef Tallow Hill

Healing Balm

love these soaps - gentle on your face and body and with a lovely fragrance too. They last long and lather well. Whole family use them.

Wonky Soap (3 Pack)

Very nice products Healing balm really helps for acne /pimples Face balm makes your skin feels nourished and hydrated

Acne Pack

The roll on deodorant stick is super - bought for my son who is 20 and battles with sweaty armpits Esp in summer months! works so well for him - as do the soaps which he raves about. We all use the soaps.

Zero BO Deodorant (80ml)

See above - already done

Healing Balm

Use the pack as directed (see my reviews of all the products above) makes this a good team for difficult skin.

Acne Pack

Best soap/shampoo ever. It moisturisesnyr skin without being oily, and lathers well. Great cleansing properties. Rub it into your hair and it spreads through your hair and scalp well, leaving hair clean but not squeaky. Hair feels fantastic. Since using this product, those occasional inflamed hair follicles on yr scalp are gone. Using it as a facial soap, rinsing it off, then applying shaving gel just makes the shaving smoothe and drag free. It’s remarkable. Using the ZERO FACE product after the shave - NO shaving rash or discomfort. No need for aftershave products.

Soap, Shampoo, Shave Bar(120g)

I think this is the coolest product. When it is cold the product is quite hard, but you can still apply it. I use it on problem areas of my face where I get a lot of blocked pores, and to problem areas on my belt line. There is a definite decrease in inflamed pores in these areas.

Healing Balm

Nice product. My facial skin is smooth and hydrated - and that hydration stays ALL DAY, which is new for me. I noticed a slight breakout in my skin when I started using it. I think because the blocked pores were now unblocked and their secretions were kind of “catching up”, but it resolved in a matter of days, and skin is now groovy. Feels groovy. Again, what happens in summer?

Face Butter (45ml)

Great product. Love the smell. I don’t know what would happen in high summer temperatures - wether it would become too “liquid”, but love the smell.

Zero BO Deodorant (80ml)

fabulous to have a good quality alternative to supermarket washing powder... Still experimenting with this product but so far very happy

Zero BS Natural Laundry Powder

Good product. Would be great if scent was slightly masked by essential oil fragrance.

Large Body Butter (250ml)

This is the perfect product if you have a dry skin,lovit!

Face Butter (45ml)

I can't praise this soap enough and tell everybody about it!!

Wonky Soap (3 Pack)

So far it's a good product,usually I will get pimples from a new product,especially oil products,but so far I am happy with the Tallow.

Basic (70ml)

Love this product! It leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturised, and has been a lifesaver for those terribly dry winter hands :)

Body Butter

I am particularly impressed with the healing balm. I purchased it to try as a natural replacement for my all-purpose Zambuk, and it has exceeded my expectations. Although not purchased specifically for the purpose, I have been rubbing it onto a patch of dry, raised skin on my leg that flakes but never heals - not inflamed and not a rash. This balm, over the course of the past month, has softened and smoothed the area, and I am sure that it is shrinking. I am sure that with consistent use the area will continue to heal.

Healing Balm

Zero BS Face Butter has completely won me over. After using it for a month, I can honestly say it's the best product I've ever used on my face! At 57, I've always had fairly good skin, but lately I've been dealing with dry patches, occasional redness, and blemishes. This Face Butter has made a noticeable difference, particularly with the dryness and redness. The formula feels rich, nourishing, and luxurious. While it does feel a little greasy when first applied, it quickly sinks in, leaving it my skin soft, smooth, and beautifully dewy without feeling oily. It glides on effortlessly and, true to its marketing claim, really does feel like it's feeding your skin. After a month of consistent use, my dry patches are significantly improved and the redness has noticeably reduced. It hasn't faded my blemishes, but the overall health and appearance of my skin are much better. My only wish is that Zero BS offered a foundation with substantial coverage to complement the skincare range. That said, this Face Butter is my friend for life!

Customer photo review of Lip Balm (15ml)

The Zero BS Lip Balm is the best lip balm I've ever used. It completely eliminated the rough, dry edges on my lips and keeps them hydrated for hours. The formula is smooth, long-lasting, and feels amazing. The small tin is also super convenient, easy to open, and perfect for taking anywhere. I absolutely love it!

3rd order in and loving my skin

Face Butter (45ml)

It's still early days, but in the long run I do think it will be useful as stated on the label.

Healing Balm (150ml)

The products helped me a lot with pigmentation around my eye area. I love , love, love. Im intending to try the sunscreen and roll on. I am sold.

Acne Pack

This tallow soap must surely be the best soap ever! My husband uses it to bath/shower and wash his hair which turns out soft and manageable (no conditioner needed). And recently, i developed an Uber itchy type of excema and ALL other soap brands were so drying, using them just shaved aggravated my skin. ZeroBS soap on the other hand does exactly what the manufacturers claim and more. It's fantastic, definitely not a harsh soap, extremely gentle to the skin, not drying , doesn't burn...gee, I could go on and on however the best thing I could say about this product is, you HAVE to try it for yourself. In our home we will never be without this product. Thank you Zero BS!

Soap, Shampoo, Shave Bar(120g)

I have stopped using store bought roll on all together. I use only the zero bs rollon and it’s all I need. It really reduces odour, like my sweat smells like essential oils. I love that is moisturizes as well. This and the soap are the best things from here!!!

Zero BO Deodorant (80ml)

I love the product so much my hair and body feels so much better and smells amazing thank you so much will definitely buy again next time and my family loves it!! Thank you soo much Zero BS

Wonky Soap (3 Pack)

Customer video review of Lip Balm (15ml)

Products are good quality but wud prefer a bigger container for face cream

Lip Balm (15ml)

The smell is amazing and the soap is fantastic on the skin Cleanses my face to perfection Thank you for a great product

Wonky Soap (3 Pack)

Weirdly as a guy , I love good soap. I in fact made glycerine soap many years ago , so I understand what makes a good soap and a bad soap. You guys nail it on a few fronts. 1. skin feel. I suffer from dry skin , especially in winter and since using your soap , I can feel my skin feels moisturised and soft. I tell me wife , I look forward to my shower every day, and I mean that. I can feel I have used something quality and different. 2. Fragrance. I really think you have nailed this one. I love it 3. Multiple uses. I am using the same bar to wash my body , my hair and I have tried it to shave. Normally using soap to shave with is a bad experience. I have only used it once to shave and was pleasantly surprised. For a guy , I think we want uncomplicated and simple and your product ticks all those boxes. I have a lot of confidence in the soap and just ordered the man pack. I am very interested in trying the deo and using the face butter after I have shaved. After that I guess I will try the clothes wash. I am intrigued to see how this works. So far , it has been a great experience, well done. A serious 5 stars
