With oils closely mimicking those produced by our bodies, our tallow soothes dry and irritated skin
Skip the synthetic lotions that coat your skin and leave it feeling dry again an hour later. Our tallow body lotion is made with grass-fed tallow and aloe vera — a formula that absorbs quickly rather than sitting on the surface, leaving skin feeling soft and comfortable all day, without synthetic chemicals, fillers, or heavy fragrance.
What makes this lotion different
Many lotions rely on water, petroleum by-products, and synthetic thickeners — they can feel greasy and leave skin dry again within hours. This lotion is built around grass-fed tallow, an ingredient whose fatty acid profile closely mimics the skin's own oils, so it absorbs fast and leaves skin feeling soft and hydrated. Made in small batches in Christchurch.
Key ingredients
- Grass-fed Tallow — the foundation of the formula. Its fatty acid profile closely mimics your skin's own oils, so it's designed to absorb rather than just coat the surface.
- Aloe Vera — long valued for its calming, hydrating feel; a natural choice for skin that needs a little extra care.
- Coconut Glycerin — a plant-derived humectant that helps draw moisture into the skin and keep it feeling hydrated through the day.
- Rose Geranium — a natural essential oil with a gentle, floral scent (Geranium scent only).
No petroleum, no parabens, no synthetic fragrances — just clean, natural ingredients. Suitable for face and body. As with any new skincare product, we recommend a small patch test first.
How to use
Apply a small amount to clean, dry skin and massage gently until absorbed. Use daily after showering or whenever your skin feels dry.

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.

"I've got really sensitive skin and have tried creams from everywhere — most caused breakouts or irritated my skin. These are the only ones that have actually worked for me, with no issues."
"My husband recommended tallow and I've been using it for almost a year now for the dry skin on my hands — and it's amazing. I highly recommend it."
"Absolutely love this stuff! Got it for me, then saw how good it is for the kids — so now I'm using it on my toddler and it's amazing!"
"I'm on my 7th jar — so very good for dry, scaly-feeling skin. Love the idea of a big jar."
"I have a trial tub for a dry patch I've had since November. It feels calmer and less irritated — and to find it's made in Christchurch is such a bonus!"
"I've been using this for a couple of weeks and it's done wonders. I only have slight dry skin on my face, but it's worked extremely well."
