Our Story
Taher Roots was started as a way to nourish my family’s skin on the outside with natural, non-toxic, and beneficial ingredients for the body. As a family, we became increasingly aware of the importance of what we put on our skin—our largest organ—and how it can impact our overall health and well-being.
The name 'Taher' comes from the Hebrew word meaning pure. This concept is central to our mission and values. It is inspired by Psalm 51:10, which speaks to the desire for a pure heart and spirit. -“Create in me a clean heart, oh God, and renew a right spirit within me.”
We strive to reflect this purity in our ingredients, our processes, and our commitment to providing you with the highest quality skincare.
After researching and experimenting with various natural ingredients, we chose grass-fed, grass-finished tallow as the main ingredient in our products. Tallow is rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, as well as essential fatty acids that closely resemble the natural oils found in healthy human skin. This makes it incredibly effective at moisturizing, protecting, and restoring the skin without the use of synthetic chemicals or harmful additives.
By using only the highest quality, local, and ethically sourced tallow, we ensure that every product we create is packed with nutrients and properties that truly benefit the body. Our mission is to provide simple, effective, and safe skincare solutions that you can trust for your family—just as we do for ours.
At Taher Roots, we believe that caring for your skin should be as natural and nourishing as caring for the rest of your body. Thank you for joining us on this journey to healthier, happier skin.
