Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark · Stop Putting SPF On In The Morning: Lard, Tallow & Ancestral Skincare | Charles Mayfield · 19 Jun 2026 podcast

That was the light bulb moment.

What I did was I started tinkering around and...

You've heard this before, you know, if you can't pronounce it, don't eat it.

I call it my paleo lens.

I wrote these paleo cookbooks many, many years ago.

I took that lens and shined it on skincare.

I'd never read a skincare ingredient list before.

And it's like, I can't pronounce any of these things.

No wonder my skin peeled or I didn't necessarily feel great after a sunburn or a scrape or a bruise or anything.

And, um, and then my daughter, uh, you know, this was back 2019.

Uh, she's 11 now, you know, when you drive a Ford, you see all the Fords on the road.

I have an 11 year old daughter.

I see all of the marketing to my young, doesn't need any skincare at 11 years old.

You know, part of the reason I launched the company, a, it worked.

for arguably the most common acute skin care condition to people with with fairer skin i started reading ingredients and you know none of that was appealing and i also started testing it like okay sunburn great i started using his aftershave i haven't had razor burn in four years

Yeah.

And so it worked for that.

And then I get a mosquito bite.

I haven't itched.

I haven't itched, Alex, in four years.
