A SKINCARE fan refuses to gatekeep their new go-to product, no matter how controversial it may be.

They said it made her complexion glow and even got rid of acne.

Redditor Onlybug raved over the product in a post on the social media platform.

They complained of "closed comedones" — or whiteheads — that cover their face.

"They're hard to see but I can feel them under my skin and they're very painful sometimes," they said.

"They come to a head occasionally and cause a lot of pain in my face."

THE SECRET SAUCE

They said that trying a product that has stirred some controversy has transformed their complexion.

"I've been using beef tallow for a few days now and my skin had never felt more smooth and painless," they said.

"My acne is vanishing, my skin doesn't peel from dryness anymore, and painful inflammation on my face vanished overnight.

"I'm literally glowing."

They expressed that even going through the medical skincare route didn't yield such results.

The skincare fan specified that there were no unpleasant odors involved with using the product.

"And before anyone asks, my face does not smell like beef," they said.

"The tallow itself is orderless and a mint scent was added to my bottle."

The Vida Tallow Balm is sold for $45 for a one-ounce jar.

NO JUDGEMENT

The beefed-up skincare routine drew in many Redditors who weighed in on the moisturizer.

"Beef tallow is a great option because the fatty acids in it have a similar molecular composition to the fatty acids in our skin," one said.

"Glad you found something that works."

However, some weren't too keen on the use of animal product in the moisturizer.

"What's a good vegan alternative?" one asked.

"There isn’t a vegan alternative. Tallow works because it has the most similar composition to human skin of anything you could put on your face.

"You can’t replicate it with anything vegan."
