Hello!

My name is Lisa and I am the founder of East Grease Skincare! I'm a 30 year old mom of 2 kids and I've been married to my husband Shane for 8 years! My passion has always been helping others - its what drives me both in my 9-5 job working with the elderly, and in everything I do!

After becoming a mom, I started looking for creative outlets to bring me joy and support my mental health. That's when I discovered the world of homemade Beef Tallow Balm and body butters - and I instantly fell in love with formulating! What began as a simple hobby quickly turned into a true passion. I'm always thinking of what I can make next!

At East Grease Skincare, I love creating products that are good for you, made with minimal simple ingredients - and that are gentle on the environment too!

What does East Grease mean?

I'm from a small called East Grand Forks, Minnesota, right across the river from Grand Forks, North Dakota. For decades, the people of East Grand Forks have been known as the "East Greasers". It started as a lighthearted joke from our neighboring town, but over time it became something we wear with pride - a symbol of our small town spirit and sense of humor.

So when I started making skincare products - many of which are made with nourishing beef tallow (a natural "grease" of sorts!) - the name East Grease Skincare just felt perfect. It's a playful nod to where I come from and what I love: creating simple, natural products that are as real and down to earth as the people who inspired the name.
