About Us
Basic Budda began as a simple mission: to make wholesome, beef tallow-based products for ourselves and our families—free from synthetic ingredients, artificial fragrances, and unnecessary fillers. What started as a personal pursuit for clean, nourishing skincare quickly grew into a full-blown passion.We fell in love with the richness of tallow—how closely it mimics our skin's natural oils, how deeply it hydrates, and how versatile it is across soaps, lotions, and beyond. The more we made, the more we shared, and before long, Basic Budda was born.Everything we create is made with intention, using locally sourced beef tallow and minimal, high-quality ingredients. We're here to bring you back to the basics—real products with real benefits, crafted with care.
Why We Use Beef Tallow
Beef tallow is nature’s original skincare ingredient—and it’s at the heart of everything we make at Basic Budda. Rich in fatty acids, vitamins A, D, E, and K, and nutrients that closely resemble our skin’s natural oils, tallow deeply moisturizes, protects, and supports healthy skin function.
Unlike plant-based oils or synthetic creams, tallow is bioavailable, meaning your skin recognizes and absorbs it easily. It helps restore the skin barrier, soothe irritation, and deliver lasting hydration—without clogging pores or relying on artificial additives.
We use locally sourced beef tallow not just for its benefits, but because it’s a sustainable, time-tested ingredient rooted in tradition and integrity. It’s clean, effective, and real—just like our products.
Our Commitment
At Basic Budda, our commitment starts with where—and how—we source our ingredients. We proudly support local farms and trusted partners who share our values of ethical, sustainable practices. Our beef tallow is locally sourced, ensuring both integrity and quality from the very beginning.
We believe in going back to the basics: using simple, nourishing ingredients that actually benefit your skin. That means no harsh chemicals, no synthetic preservatives, and no artificial fragrances—ever. Every product is thoughtfully formulated to be as gentle, effective, and honest as the intention behind it.
From the first batch we made for ourselves to the growing collection we now share with you, our mission remains the same: to create skincare that’s rooted in tradition, transparency, and trust.
Our Promise
At Basic Budda, we don’t just create skincare and home goods—we create the very products we use in our own homes, with our own families. Every candle, balm, cream, and soap is handcrafted with care, designed to nourish the body and honor the earth.
We believe in the beauty of simplicity and the timeless power of beef tallow. By choosing Basic Budda, you’re choosing products that are genuine, grounded in nature, and made with purpose—for you, your loved ones, and the world around you.
