Coconut, Ylang-Ylang, Tonka Bean & Sandalwood
› The Scent - Creamy coconut, resinous sandalwood, warm tonka bean, and soft ylang-ylang come together to create a tropical, sun-soaked scent that feels nostalgic, elevated, and unmistakably summer.
No.1 Deep End Tallow Body Butter is Shelter's richest body moisturizer, made to deeply nourish the skin while surrounding it in a warm, tropical veil of scent.
Formulated with grass-fed and grass-finished beef tallow, this balm-like butter melts into skin to deliver lasting moisture and comfort. Organic jojoba oil helps soften texture and support absorption, leaving skin smooth, supple, and glowing without a heavy finish.
Deep End is naturally scented with pure botanicals, blending creamy coconut, soft ylang-ylang, warm tonka bean, and resinous sandalwood. It's nostalgic but refined, sun-soaked but grounded, and designed to wear close to the skin.
Handcrafted in small batches, this body butter turns everyday moisture into a summer ritual.
KEY INGREDIENTS
- Organic 100% Grass-fed, Grass-finished Tallow - Shelter's tallow is sourced from organic, 100% grass-fed, grass-finished cows raised on small, regenerative farms. It's dry rendered and carefully filtered for purity, resulting in a clean, nutrient-dense ingredient that closely supports the skin barrier.
- Organic Jojoba Oil - Shelter's organic golden jojoba oil is cold-pressed and naturally rich in essential fatty acids. Its structure closely resembles the skin's natural sebum, allowing it to absorb easily while supporting balanced hydration.
- Organic Coconut Fruit Extract - Shelter's organic coconut fruit extract gives Deep End its soft, creamy opening and subtle tropical warmth. It brings a smooth, familiar coconut note to the formula, balanced by ylang-ylang, tonka bean, sandalwood, and benzoin for a scent that feels warm and nostalgic, without synthetic fragrance.
Using the spatula, scoop out a 10-cent-piece-sized amount and massage over the body. Start with a small amount and apply more as needed.

We recommend storing your jar in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Because this body butter is made only with natural ingredients, the texture may soften in warmer environments and firm up in cooler temperatures.
Avoid prolonged exposure to heat or humidity, and keep water out of the jar to maintain freshness.
Because this formula is completely natural, softening can happen during warm-weather shipping. If your jar arrives warm or softened, place it in the fridge for 30 minutes, then let it return to room temperature before use.
A change in texture does not affect the quality of the product.
The tallow is dry rendered and double filtered for maximum purity and quality. Dry rendering uses low, controlled heat without added water, helping preserve the integrity of the tallow and create a cleaner, more stable final product.
Deep End smells warm, creamy, and tropical. Coconut is the most noticeable note, softened by ylang-ylang and grounded with sandalwood and tonka bean.
It has a subtle vintage sunscreen-like quality, but feels more elevated than sweet or beachy. Think warm skin, soft coconut, and a smooth woody finish.
The texture is best compared to a soft, whipped butter. It melts easily into the skin on contact and leaves skin feeling nourished, smooth, and hydrated.
Because it's an ambient formula, the texture may feel softer in warmer temperatures and firmer in cooler ones.
Tallow closely resembles the skin's natural moisture barrier, allowing it to absorb well when used in the right amount. Start with a small amount and build as desired. Applied lightly, it will fully absorb. Applied more generously, it can leave a dewy, glazed finish on the skin.
*Note that if you use a lot on your arms, you may see excess in your elbow crease. This is entirely normal and you can easily rub the excess into your skin.
"Natural fragrance" is an unregulated term that can refer to a blend of aromatic compounds, often without full ingredient transparency.
Shelter formulates with pure botanicals (also known as essential oils) and list them transparently. Each botanical is selected for scent, skin compatibility, and overall formula balance. This allows them to create a natural scent profile without synthetic fragrance or undisclosed fragrance blends.
Shelter also prioritizes organic sourcing and specific extraction methods, including steam-distilled and cold-pressed oils, depending on what is most stable and appropriate for the skin.
Deep End is designed to wear close to the skin. Because Shelter uses pure botanicals at a low scent load, the scent will be softer and more subtle than a conventional fragranced body product.
For a stronger scent experience, pair with No. 3 Deep End Perfume Oil and reapply as desired.
Absolutely! We recommend using the body butter at night for deep nourishment and repair overnight, and the body oil during the day for lightweight, breathable hydration.
If layering both, apply the body butter first, then finish with the body oil for an added glow and enhanced scent. Together, they create a complete ritual for hydrated, balanced skin.
While formulated for the body, it can be used on the face depending on your skin type. Tallow is rich in fatty acids and may be comedogenic for some, so we recommend patch testing or limiting use to the body if you are acne-prone.
When stored properly, your jar will last up to 6 months. Tallow is naturally stable, but we recommend avoiding the introduction of water or moisture into the jar to maintain quality.
