Why We Believe Skincare Should Be Good Enough to Eat

Why We Believe Skincare Should Be Good Enough to Eat

Your skin is your body’s largest organ—and what you put on it matters. At Mother Acres, we believe if you wouldn’t eat it, you shouldn’t be putting it on your skin.

Here’s why we use food-grade ingredients in every product we make.


1. Skin Absorbs What You Apply Toxins and synthetic chemicals can enter your bloodstream through topical products. We say no to fillers and yes to clean, edible ingredients.

2. Your Baby Deserves Safe Contact If you’re a nursing mom, or your little one snuggles your skin all day, you want your moisturizer to be as pure as your food.

3. Nature Already Has the Answers Tallow, essential oils, herbs, and beeswax offer everything skin needs—without the additives.

4. It’s Part of Our Ancestral Philosophy Our grandmothers made skincare from what was in the pantry. We’re just carrying on that legacy.


From Our Kitchen to Your Skin Real skincare, made from real food. That’s the Mother Acres way.
