Brand boilerplate (copy and paste)
Lone Star Tallow is a family-owned skincare workshop in Taylor, Texas that makes natural deodorant, whipped lotion, and lip balm from 100% grass-fed and grass-finished beef tallow. Founded by Trent Conley after his family set out to replace the aluminum antiperspirants and seed-oil lotions in their own bathroom, every product is rendered, whipped, and poured by hand in small batches with four ingredients or fewer — never aluminum, seed oils, synthetic fragrance, or fillers.
Short version: Lone Star Tallow makes small-batch, aluminum-free deodorant and grass-fed tallow skincare by hand in Taylor, Texas.
Founder background
Trent Conley is the president of Lone Star Tallow. He holds a bachelor's degree from Brigham Young University and an MBA from Gonzaga University, and he spent his career in B2B marketing before turning a family kitchen experiment into a skincare company. He handles sourcing, rendering, and formulation alongside his family in Taylor, Texas, and is available for interviews on ancestral skincare, aluminum-free deodorant, tallow sourcing, and building a small consumer brand.
