DELOZALE
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How to use DELOZALE Balm?
Since the composition of beef fat is very similar to that of human epidermis and sebum, particularly the fatty acids that make them up, it will be easily absorbed and will be able to produce its effects quickly.
A small amount is enough for the face and each part of the body. So be careful not to use it like a classic moisturizer, made with water. If you put too much on, you risk having skin that is too oily. We often get fooled at the beginning! In this case, simply blot the excess with a tissue.
However, you may need to put a little more on areas where the skin is thicker or harder (feet, hands, elbows).
What makes beef fat have effects on the skin?
Beef fat and human epidermis are very close in terms of chemical composition with 50% saturated fats that provide to maintain the integrity and tone of skin cells.
Beef fat and sebum both contain PALMITOLEIC acid which allows easy absorption of nutrients.
Animal fat is one of the most nutrient dense foods and antioxidants such as vitamins A (protective), E (anti-oxidant) and K (healing), OLEIC acid which nourishes the skin and strengthens the hydro-lipidic film, PALMITIC acid which softens the skin and fights against aging, and STEARIC acid which forms a barrier and maintains the skin's natural moisture.

My balm has become hard, and I have trouble using it!
Our balms do not contain any superfluous substances, including ingredients that always have a uniform texture. They are "whipped butters" with a texture similar to whipped cream. However, they are based on saturated fat and a change in temperature can change their texture. This is perfectly normal and does not alter their virtues in any way.
So make sure to store the balms at a temperature above 19° so that they do not solidify and make them less comfortable to use. In this case, simply place them in the room at a warmer temperature to soften them (but especially not above a radiator which would melt them), and warm the cream well in your hands for optimal application.
I have oily skin, can I still put oil on my skin?
Oily skin can be skin that is too cleansed, which has caused an alteration of the hydrolipidic film that protects it from external aggressions. This film being composed of sebum and sweat, your body will then produce sebum in large quantities to reconstitute it, making the skin oily. Beef fat naturally containing the fatty acids that enter into the composition of sebum, apply DELOZALE balm to your skin will allow it to reconstitute the hydrolipidic film without excessive production of sebum. Changing your cleansing routine at the same time remains essential.
I have skin problems, I only use dermatological products. Can I still use your products?
Beef fat, which DELOZALE balm is composed of, by providing elements allowing the skin to regenerate, will help reduce certain symptoms such as redness, dryness, and inflammation. At the same time, a suitable diet rich in raw foods and low in toxins will act on the cause and thus help your skin get rid of pimples and other imperfections.
Where does the fat you use come from? Is it organic?
The fat we use is not certified organic. It comes from Ireland, a country renowned for the quality of its breeding methods and its rich grass, where cattle spend six to eight months in pastures where they forage for their own food in their "natural" environment. Thus, 95% of their diet is based on fresh or produced grass. This fat is analyzed because it is subject to strict veterinary and regulatory standards since, like the meat from which it comes, it is intended for human consumption. In addition, it is deodorized with very high pressure steam, and bleached with Bentonite-type earth which removes its impurities, and does not contain any irritating, allergenic or dangerous substances. The DIP (Product Information File, mandatory for all cosmetics) of our balms ensures that the quality and safety of the product have been properly identified and analyzed.
I smell a slight odor of fat, it bothers me.
This fat has been naturally deodorized and the majority of people who have already used our products do not smell any characteristic odor. However, it happens that people with a very developed sense of smell, mention a slight odor of fat. If you are in this case, and you do not want to deprive yourself of the benefits of our products, you can add a few drops of lavender essential oil to our balms.
Your products are based on beef fat, and I am against the idea of using a product that required the death of an animal for my skin.
The manufacture of our products does not require the death of an animal since the animal has already been slaughtered for its meat. On the contrary, our approach respects the animal by valorizing its fat which would otherwise be thrown away.
In the same way that humans have used all parts of the animals they have killed for a large part of their history, we believe that if we take a life, all parts of the animal must be used.
We share the vision of the Native Americans for whom "Wasting a part of the animal would be for us, in our culture, contravening a sacred rule, committing a sacrilege, it would be disrespectful to the animal that, in an act of great generosity, agreed to let itself be killed to feed us. This is what the elders taught us".

Why do you use polypropylene pots and not glass or cardboard pots?
First of all, you have to be aware that the most ecological packaging there is is simply the one that does not exist! Today, on the market, there is no cosmetic jar that is perfect and has a totally virtuous circle.
Polypropylene is a plastic material that complies with food packaging standards, is non-toxic, contains no phthalates or bisphenol A, and poses no health risk.
Polypropylene is 100% recyclable: 1 tonne of recycled PP = 830 litres of oil saved.
Once thrown into the appropriate sorting bins (yellow) and taken to waste treatment centres, the jars are compacted into bales and then crushed. The PP granules obtained are then recycled by manufacturers who incorporate them into other plastics to transform them into baby car seats or car bumpers.
Contrary to popular belief, glass, although 100% recyclable, is nonetheless polluting! Currently in France, the journey of a bottle or a small glass jar is as follows: once empty, the glass container is thrown into the sorting containers, then broken, reduced to a state of calcine before being remelted in a furnace at 1500°C in order to become a new bottle, a new small jar, ...
Its carbon footprint is therefore high:
At the manufacturing stage: Melting 1kg of glass = 300g to 500g of CO2
At the transport stage: It takes many more trucks to transport glass than for an equivalent number of products packaged in cardboard or polypropylene/PET because glass is much heavier.
According to the life analysis carried out by Bio Intelligence Service, glass recycling requires significant energy consumption and results in numerous CO2 emissions that are not offset by its high recycling rate.
As for the so-called cardboard pots that are used to package food products, they are not 100% cardboard, and this for several reasons including the fact that simple cardboard would not support the humidity or fat of the products.
Also these pots are necessarily bi-material in cardboard + paraffin or polyethylene, i.e. packaging that, today, is not recycled and this is valid for all of France. Even if you put them in the sorting containers, they are automatically incinerated or buried depending on the geographical sectors (information provided by the Directorate of Energy Transition and the Environment, Regional Council of Pays de la Loire, December 2018).
By using single-material polypropylene pots, we have therefore chosen what we believe to be the "least bad" of all.
