Meet your perfect summer moisturiser.

Tallow Face Cream | Light delivers hydration and nourishment without heaviness, keeping your skin calm, smooth, and balanced through warmer weather.

Handcrafted in Perth using 100% grass-fed and finished WA tallow, this refreshing emulsion combines shea butter, rosehip, jojoba, and castor oils with soothing herbal infusions of marshmallow root, dandelion and kawakawa, calendula, and licorice extracts. Together they help soften fine lines, deeply hydrate, and support healthy skin barrier function.

  • Tallow is rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, and essential fatty acids that mimic our skin’s natural sebum, making it incredibly nourishing and barrier-supportive without clogging pores.
  • Marshmallow root delivers long-lasting hydration by forming a soft, protective film on the skin, keeping it supple and dewy.
  • Dandelion provides antioxidants that help neutralise free radicals and promote a brighter, more even skin tone.
  • Kawakawa calms irritation and inflammation, helping soothe reactive or stressed skin.
  • Calendula supports repair, reduces redness, and encourages a smooth, healthy complexion.
  • Licorice root helps even pigmentation, reduces inflammation, and brightens the skin naturally.
  • Rosehip and jojoba oils add lightweight nourishment, promoting elasticity and supporting collagen production.
  • Aloe vera is rich in polysaccharides, enzymes, and antioxidants that boost hydration, accelerate skin repair, and support collagen synthesis. It soothes irritation from sun or heat exposure while helping to improve texture and firmness over time.
  • Blue chamomile contains bisabolol, a potent natural anti-inflammatory that soothes redness, supports healing, and strengthens the skin’s resilience.
  • Vitamin E enhances antioxidant protection, helping guard against oxidative stress and premature ageing.

Finished with a soft botanical scent from blue chamomile, lemon myrtle, tea tree, and vanilla, this cream leaves skin refreshed and balanced.

Perfect for hot, humid days or as a base under zinc-based sunscreens to prevent dryness and flaking.

💛 Created for those who love the results of tallow but prefer a lighter texture — this formulation bridges the gap between oil-based nourishment and water-based freshness.

FAQs

1. Can I use this under sunscreen?

Yes! This cream pairs perfectly with zinc-based sunscreens, helping prevent dryness and flaking while keeping skin hydrated.

2. Will it suit oily or acne-prone skin?

Yes. The lightweight texture absorbs easily without clogging pores, and the tea tree, licorice, and chamomile help support clear, calm skin.

3. Does it help with fine lines?

Yes — marshmallow root, rosehip, and aloe vera help rehydrate and smooth the appearance of fine lines caused by dryness.

4. Can I use it morning and night?

Absolutely. It’s gentle enough for twice-daily use and layers beautifully under makeup or heavier creams.

5. I’ve been hesitant to try tallow because I don’t like heavy or oily products. Will this feel the same?

Not at all. This is a light emulsion that absorbs quickly, leaving a smooth, hydrated finish — perfect for those who’ve been unsure about traditional tallow creams.

Is this product for me?

This cream was developed after hearing from family members who loved the nourishment of tallow but wanted something lighter for daily use.

It’s for you if you:

  • Prefer a cream that absorbs quickly and feels weightless
  • Usually avoid rich or oil-based products but still want deep hydration
  • Need a summer-friendly moisturiser that won’t clog pores
  • Love tallow’s skin-loving nutrients but want a gentler introduction

Whether you’re new to tallow or already a fan, this formulation offers a beautifully balanced, easy-to-love alternative.
