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.
Kiwi families use it head to toe. For little ones we suggest the fragrance-free Natural — or our Baby Butter, made specifically for babies. Always patch test a small area first.
Patch test a small area for 24 hours first. Natural (fragrance-free) is the gentlest pick for very sensitive skin.
Mānuka Vanilla is the crowd favourite; Vanilla Rose is warm & floral; Natural is fragrance-free. Tap "Scent guide" above the scent picker to compare all 8.
"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 eczema 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 of the lavender — so very good for dry, scaly skin. Love the idea of a big jar."
"I have a trial tub of the mānuka/vanilla one, for a patch of eczema I've had since November. It's not as itchy and not spreading like it was — 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."
