OUR STORY

From the farm to your skin

Beaver Brook Ranch

Blairstown, NJ

A small family-run farm in the New Jersey countryside, Beaver Brook Ranch is where Kallo's tallow begins. Our beef tallow is USDA-inspected and rendered, so every jar carries the quality of the pasture straight from the farm to your skin.

Our Story

Chris and Noelle met as Babson College students through their business fraternity, Phi Gamma Nu, an organization built on deep and authentic connections. The fraternity instilled in them a shared philosophy: that everything worth doing should be executed with meaning, effort, and passion. As aspiring entrepreneurs, they knew they didn't just want to start a business — they wanted to build something that reflected those values. That common ground, combined with a shared passion for natural and safe skincare, became the spark for their brand. What began as a meaningful connection between two like-minded students grew into a mission to bring that same intentionality to the products people put on their skin every day.

Our Story, Our Faces

Christiana Pisani

Co-founder

Hey, I’m Chris, the Co-Founder of Kallo. I’ve always been obsessed with seeing how far I can push myself. Everywhere I go, I try to learn, challenge my perspective, and become a little better than I was yesterday. Kallo is an extension of who I am. It’s where I pour my values, my curiosity, and my drive into creating something meaningful. I hope it reminds people to bet on themselves, stay authentic, and never let someone else’s limits become their own. We’re just getting started, and I couldn’t be more excited for what’s ahead with this incredible team. Thanks for being here, stay tuned!

Noelle Tadross

Co-founder

Hello, I’m Noelle, the Co-Founder of Kallo. Whether to people, to details, or to projects, I've always believed that the best things come from paying attention. Kallo is where that shows up most. It's where I get to help build something intentional from the ground up, rooted in quality and care at every step. This brand reminds me that beauty doesn't have to come at the cost of what's real, and that taking your time to do something right is always worth it. And that's exactly what we're showing our customers. I'm so grateful to be building this with a partner and team who also uphold these values. Thank you for following our journey!

Product Research and Development

Being raised by my parents, the idea of continuing a holistic lifestyle has always been a passion of mine. A homemade, apothecary, jar-your-own-jam household. The creation of Kallo has given me the chance to share that with all of you! The curation of my tallow goes back 5 years to when I was in high school, experiencing dry, acne-prone skin. I tried endless products until I thought to myself, “Why not make something my skin will eat? Something with an extensive moisturizing foundation, without all the unnecessary additives that could just break me out again?” From that, after weeks of testing and research, the tallow was formed. After years of development and perfection, I’m happy to deliver a mixture derived from only the purest ingredients and intentions, from one herbalist to another.

I think there’s something really special about being at the beginning of something you genuinely believe in. For me, that’s Kallo. I’ve gotten to watch ideas turn into decisions, decisions turn into a brand, and this vision become more real with every step. Being able to bring that vision to life creatively and help shape something from the ground up is an opportunity I’m incredibly grateful for. There’s so much thought, care, and ambition behind what we’re creating, and I can’t wait for people to see everything Kallo can become. I’m incredibly excited for where we’re taking it, and even more excited that everyone gets to watch it happen!

Our Values

Quality

Every formula starts with one exceptional ingredient, not a long list of fillers standing in for it. If it's not good enough to use ourselves, it doesn't make it into the jar.

Transparency

We publish our sourcing, our formulas, and our reasoning openly — because a real farm and a real answer build more trust than a polished label ever could.

Inclusivity

Skin doesn't check gender, age, or background at the door, and neither do we. Kallo is built for everyone who wants better skincare, not a narrow slice of the market.

Community

We want people to feel like they're part of what we're building, not just buying from us. That's how they end up genuinely rooting for us, because the product and the story both hold up.

Sustainability

Tallow isn't a resource we're depleting; it's a byproduct we're putting to use to achieve zero-waste. On top of that, we strive to use 100% recyclable packaging and materials.

Innovation

We're not afraid to go where no tallow brand has gone yet — color cosmetics, men's grooming, a modern aesthetic — while staying true to one honest ingredient.
