Pure, simple, clean goodness. Soleil & Cedar's Eden Whipped Tallow Cream is 100% grass-fed bovine tallow that is gentle, yet effective for everyone's skin.  

Tallow is rich in skin-loving lipids that closely resemble those naturally found in healthy human skin.  These nourishing fats help support your skin’s natural moisture barrier, locking in hydration while protecting against everyday environmental stressors. Because of this natural compatibility, tallow is easily absorbed, leaving skin feeling soft, balanced, and deeply nourished.

At Soleil & Cedar, we believe in simple ingredients that work with your skin—not against it. That’s why we’ve chosen this time-honored ingredient as the hero of Eden Whipped Tallow Cream.

Not only are we all about nourishing skin, we are passionate about nourishing students. Every jar purchased provides a meal for a student in Citè Soleil, Haiti through our partnership with Upstream International. 

Ingredients: grass-fed tallow-that’s it!  

**Product may settle in jar during shipping, but is sold by weight, 2 oz net wt in a 4 oz glass jar. In warmer temperatures tallow can melt. If your Eden Whipped Tallow Cream melts, put in a cool place or in the refrigerator until it is solid again.**

a bit of a poverty puncher

I'm Sami, a Jesus lovin' wife of 25 years to Joey & mother to our 8 incredible children + 2 son in loves, a daughter in love, and grandma to the sweetest 4 little girls there ever was. I adore sunny days, heated blankets, dark chocolate, tacos, decorating, creating, empowering other mommas & fighting injustice. 

In 2014 Joe & I were in the process of adopting 2 of our children, who have Down Syndrome, from China when I found myself standing across the room from a heart-broken mother in a malnutrition clinic & orphanage in Port Au Prince, Haiti. What I saw and felt that day changed the entire course of my life and, God willing, many other lives. I was contemplating our own children living in an orphanage as I watched mothers agonize over their ailing precious ones. As I watched them attend to their fragile children my heart was stirred & moved. Tears streamed down a mother’s cheek and in those life-altering moments I felt swallowed up by the puddle I knew she had wept over her child. The thoughts racing through my mind were “No mom should have to watch her child suffer or die because she can’t provide. No mom should have to leave her child behind. No child should have no mom.". In those breaking and building moments something was birthed deep within me. Moving from Haiti to Texas presented me with a season of wondering what was next. How would I marry the two worlds that I hold so dear? Insert Soleil & Cedar.

I will not relent in my dedication to mothers and children around the globe. Soleil & Cedar exists to fight for families & communities in need. I fight for families in Haiti by curating fair trade items around the world that provide artisans with livable wages & by getting them into the hands of people who want to punch poverty with me. Locally, I create products that give back to people that need someone fighting for them.

Thank you for empowering me to empower others,

Sami
