With oils closely mimicking those produced by our bodies, our tallow soothes dry and irritated skin

Cleans deep — without the sting, strip, or tight, dry feeling. Washing your hands all day shouldn't leave them raw. Harsh, sulfate-based soaps can leave skin feeling stripped — so it stings, tightens, and feels dry. Our soothing tallow cleans just as well, minus the nasties: sulfate-free and gentle enough for the most sensitive, hard-working hands.

Why hard-working hands switched to tallow

If you wash your hands all day — nursing, hairdressing, hospitality, cleaning, parenting — ordinary soap can work against you. Sulfates and synthetic detergents strip the natural oils that keep skin feeling comfortable, so it can feel dry, tight, and rough.

Tallow's fatty-acid profile is remarkably close to skin's own — so it cleans gently and helps hands feel soft and comfortable, wash after wash. No sulfates, no harsh detergents.

  • 🐄 Grass-fed Tallow — nourishing fats close to skin's own; cleans without a stripped feel.
  • 🥥 Coconut Cleansers — gentle, sulfate-free lather (Lauryl Glucoside & Cocoyl Isethionate).
  • 🌿 Aloe Vera — helps soothe and calm the feel of skin that's had a hard day.
  • 💧 Glycerin & Vitamin E — humectants that help skin feel hydrated and less dry between washes.

Made for hands that work hard

If frequent washing leaves your skin feeling sore, this is for you — nurses & healthcare, hairdressers & beauty, hospitality & baristas, cleaners & tradies, parents & littlies, and sensitive, eczema-prone skin. Mild enough for hands, body and the whole family's everyday washing.

How to use

Ingredients

Grass-fed NZ tallow, organic jojoba oil and natural essential oils — chosen to closely mimic the oils your skin already makes.

High-grade grass-fed suet, wet-rendered and filtered for a clean, light whip.
Organic jojoba oil adds lift to the whip and a smoothing feel.
Natural essential oils add the aroma — pick fragrance-free Natural for the most sensitive skin.

Common questions

What does it smell like?

Each scent comes from natural essential oils — Mānuka Vanilla is our most loved and masks the natural tallow scent best. Natural is fragrance-free, so you may notice tallow's faint natural scent.

Is it OK for babies and kids?

Families use it head to toe. For little ones we suggest the fragrance-free Natural. Always patch test a small area first.

New to tallow or have reactive skin?

Patch test a small area for 24 hours first. Natural (fragrance-free) is the gentlest pick for very sensitive skin.

Which scent should I pick?

Mānuka Vanilla is the crowd favourite; Vanilla Rose is warm & floral; Natural is fragrance-free. Tap "Scent guide" above the scent picker to compare them all.
