At Six Twenty, we have always believed that skincare is not just about appearance—it’s about deep nourishment, healing, and connection to the earth. Our journey began with a desire to harness the bioactive power of traditional ingredients, combining them with modern innovation to create something profoundly unique. Among the most powerful ingredients in our formulations are Elk Tallow, Bison Tallow, and Bear Tallow, which form the core of our product line. These ingredients are more than just natural; they are biocompatible with human skin, meaning they are absorbed easily, providing superior hydration and healing without irritation.

The Science of Tallow: Nature’s Perfect Moisturizer

Unlike many synthetic creams, tallow is uniquely biocompatible—it mirrors the molecular structure of human skin lipids. This means tallow can penetrate the skin more effectively, delivering essential nutrients where they are needed most. Rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, as well as omega fatty acids, Elk, Bison, and Bear tallow deeply nourish the skin, restore its natural barrier, and provide lasting hydration. The result is skin that is not only moisturized but also protected, rejuvenated, and able to heal itself.

• Elk Tallow: Known for its resilience, elk tallow softens and rejuvenates skin, offering protection from environmental stressors. It’s especially beneficial for sensitive or dry skin, restoring a youthful, vibrant glow.

• Bison Tallow: A powerhouse of vitamins and fatty acids, bison tallow promotes healing and cell regeneration, reducing inflammation while improving elasticity and texture. It provides deep nourishment without leaving a greasy residue.

• Bear Tallow: Bear tallow is unparalleled in its ability to hydrate and protect. With a rich, ancient history of use, it offers a deeply restorative experience, bringing balance and harmony to even the most troubled skin.

Ancestral Knowledge, Modern Innovation

At Six Twenty, we are proud to be among the pioneers in the revival of tallow-based skincare, particularly the use of Elk and Bison tallow. Darcy and Jenny Fisher, founders of Six Twenty, were some of the first formulators to reintroduce these powerful ingredients to the modern beauty market. Our products have been carefully crafted, inspired by the deep Indigenous Ecological Knowledge passed down through our Kootenai (Ktunaxa), Salish, and Pend O’reille ancestors.

Our formulas honor the ancient wisdom of walking through the seasons, harvesting plants and roots at their most potent. This practice ensures that each ingredient is not only sustainably sourced but also imbued with the spiritual and healing energy of the land. These traditions inform our approach to skincare, creating products that honor the Language of the Plants and the cyclical wisdom of nature.

More Than Skincare: A Sacred Journey

When you use a Six Twenty product, you are not just moisturizing your skin—you are participating in a sacred tradition. Our ancestors believed that plants, animals, and humans are all interconnected, each contributing to the health and well-being of the other. Our Elk, Bison, and Bear tallow formulations are a reflection of that relationship, bridging the gap between tradition and modern needs.

Through our humble beginnings, we have stayed true to our mission: to create a luxurious, top-of-the-line product that nourishes not only the skin but also the soul. Six Twenty skincare products are crafted with heart, drawing on the deep teachings of our heritage while integrating the science and innovation of today. We’ve become a leader in this field, often imitated, but never replicated in our unique approach.

The Power of Following Your Heart

Steve Jobs once said, “Follow your heart and intuition—they somehow already know what you truly want to become.” At Six Twenty, we have lived by this mantra. Our hearts led us to embrace the ancestral knowledge that has shaped our people and our land. Intuition guided us to blend this ancient wisdom with modern innovation, creating skincare that heals, restores, and honors the earth.

Our journey is more than just business—it is a calling to uplift our communities, preserve our traditions, and offer products that align with nature’s rhythms. Through our tallow-based formulations, we are not only providing a solution for healthier skin but also promoting a lifestyle of mindfulness, sustainability, and deep respect for the earth.
