At Lady May Tallow, we take pride in crafting premium candles using only the finest ingredients: 100% grass-fed beef tallow, pure beeswax, and carefully selected essential oils. Our commitment to quality extends beyond the base ingredients to our thoughtfully curated scent collection, designed to enhance your space while maintaining the cleanest possible burn.
Why Tallow and Beeswax?
Before we dive into our signature scents, let's address what makes our candles special. The combination of grass-fed beef tallow and beeswax creates a superior burning experience. These natural ingredients produce a clean, long-lasting flame without the toxic byproducts commonly found in paraffin candles. The result? Better air quality in your home and a more sustainable choice for the environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do your candles burn? Our candles are designed to burn for approximately 40-50 hours, depending on the size. The combination of tallow and beeswax creates a slower, more efficient burn than traditional paraffin candles.
Are your candles safe for people with allergies? Our candles are made with natural ingredients and pure essential oils, making them a excellent choice for those with sensitivities to synthetic fragrances. However, if you have specific allergies, we recommend starting with our Unscented option and consulting with your healthcare provider.
Why do you use grass-fed beef tallow? Grass-fed beef tallow is not only more sustainable but also produces a cleaner burn than conventional alternatives. The quality of the tallow directly affects the candle's performance, and grass-fed sources provide the purest form available.
How do I get the most out of my candle? For optimal burning:
- Allow the wax to melt completely across the top on the first burn
- Keep the wick trimmed to 1/4 inch
- Burn for 2-4 hours at a time
- Keep away from drafts
- Store in a cool, dry place when not in use
Can I recycle the container? Yes! Our containers are fully recyclable, and we encourage our customers to repurpose them at home.
