Nurture — Manuka & Vanilla Whipped Tallow Balm
Warm, earthy, and grounding — this one wraps the woody, herbal depth of New Zealand manuka around soft, sweet vanilla, with a thread of warm frankincense running through it. It's whipped light and fluffy, melts straight into the skin, and leaves no greasy layer behind. A quiet, comforting balm for everyday skin that just wants to feel looked after.
NZ Grass-Fed Tallow: The heart of every balm we make. Its fatty acid profile is close to your skin's own, so it sinks in and nourishes rather than sitting on top. Rich in the natural vitamins A, D, E and K for which tallow is known.
Manuka Essential Oil: A native New Zealand botanical with a deep, earthy, slightly herbal scent. It gives this balm its grounded, natural character and helps condition and soften the skin.
Frankincense Essential Oil: Warm and gently resinous, it adds depth and a calm note that sits beautifully between the manuka and the vanilla.
Natural Vanilla: Soft, warm and gently sweet — it rounds everything out and gives the balm its cosy, comforting finish.
Calendula-Infused Olive Oil & Jojoba: Gentle, skin-loving oils that keep the balm soft, spreadable and kind even on delicate skin.
Perfect For:
- Dry hands, elbows, and anywhere that needs a little extra
- Anyone who loves a warm, natural, unfussy scent
- Everyday face and body moisturising
- A grounding balm with which to end the day

Common Questions
What skin conditions can it help?
What skin conditions can it help?
Eczema, psoriasis, dry patches, cracked hands, chapped lips, wrinkles, and general dryness. The vitamins and fatty acids support natural healing.
Does it smell like beef fat?
Does it smell like beef fat?
We render and purify our tallow until it's as odourless as possible, then we add natural essential oils so it smells lovely. You get all the skin benefits without a heavy beefy scent - just a natural fragrance from the essential oils. Thus being said, there will be a residual 'buttery' scent because of its natural origins.
Will it clog my pores or cause breakouts?
Will it clog my pores or cause breakouts?
No, Tallow is non-comedogenic and matches your skin's natural oils. Many customers with acne-prone skin see improvement because it balances rather than blocks pores.
Is it greasy?
Is it greasy?
No. We whip our tallow into a light, fluffy texture that absorbs quickly because your skin recognizes the fatty acids. No sticky residue or greasy feeling - just soft, nourished skin.
How much whipped tallow balm should I use?
How much whipped tallow balm should I use?
A little goes a very long way! Start with a small, pea-sized amount for your face or hands, adjusting for larger areas. Warm the balm between your fingertips and gently press or massage it onto clean, damp skin. Our balm is highly concentrated, so always start small—your skin should feel moisturized and soft, not greasy.
