Charles Mayfield is a best-selling author, father and the founder of Mayfield Pastures & Farrow Skincare. His unique experiences in the regenerative farming, fitness and culinary world provided the backdrop to launch Farrow in 2022. He is on a crusade to educate consumers about their largest organ and expose just how toxic and ineffective most modern skincare products are for our bodies and brains.

We embark on a journey into the world of paleo skincare with Charles today, unveiling the power of traditional fats like tallow and lard in creating effective, natural skincare products. We explore the historical significance of these ingredients, and their resurgence in the beauty industry for their antibacterial properties. Charles shares his background in regenerative farming and culinary arts, offering insights into the benefits of embracing ancestral wisdom for healthier skin. We also get into the issue of toxic chemicals in conventional skincare, advocating for a return to sustainable practices that honor our skin's natural healing abilities.
