Tallow Nappy Balm
A gentle, deeply nourishing tallow balm crafted for your baby's most delicate skin. Enriched with non-nano zinc oxide for a soft, soothing mineral barrier. Free from essential oils, fragrances, and synthetic additives — just pure, skin-compatible ingredients inspired by the traditional nappy creams our grandmothers used to make.
Key Benefits
- Gentle on Newborn Skin: No essential oils, no fragrances, no synthetic preservatives — only the simplest, most nourishing ingredients nature provides.
- Natural Moisture Barrier: Grass-fed tallow and beeswax work together to create a breathable barrier that helps protect against wetness and friction at every nappy change.
- Soothes & Protects: Rich in fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K2 — nutrients your baby's skin recognises and absorbs readily to calm redness and irritation.
- Biocompatible: Tallow's fatty acid profile is nearly identical to your baby's own skin, allowing deep, gentle absorption without clogging pores.
- Non-Nano Zinc Protection: A gentle mineral barrier that sits on the skin's surface to help soothe, calm, and protect delicate skin — anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and safe for even the youngest bottoms.
- Multi-Purpose: Perfect for the nappy area, but also lovely for dry patches and any little areas that need extra love.
Ingredients
Handcrafted in small batches locally in Dungog with the following ingredients (50ml jar):
Our tallow is rich in fat-soluble vitamins and minerals like Vitamin A, D, E, K2, Vitamin B12, Vitamin B3, Omega 3s, and stearic acid. Its fatty acid profile is nearly identical to your baby's own skin, allowing deep absorption without clogging pores.
The polyphenols found in our cold-pressed olive oil have antimicrobial properties, maintain skin hydration and elasticity, and help soothe delicate, irritated skin.
Our organic jojoba oil is the closest plant oil to the skin's own natural sebum — perfect for protecting and softening your baby's sensitive skin.
Rich in medium-chain fatty acids and lauric acid, our organic cold-pressed coconut oil offers deep antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory benefits. It helps strengthen the skin barrier, lock in moisture, and soothe dry, irritated, or eczema-prone skin.
Organic beeswax creates a gentle, breathable barrier on the skin — helping to lock in moisture and protect against wetness and friction. Rich in Vitamin A, it supports skin cell regeneration and repair.
Mineral zinc oxide sits on the skin's surface to form a gentle, physical barrier that helps soothe and protect delicate skin — without penetrating the skin. It's naturally calming, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and safe for babies, making it ideal for nappy rash-prone skin.
How to Use
- Cleanse the area: Start with a clean, dry nappy area at every change.
- Warm a small amount: Take a pea-sized amount of balm and rub it gently between your fingertips to soften.
- Apply a thin layer: Smooth the balm gently over baby's bottom and any areas prone to redness or irritation. The non-nano zinc oxide forms a gentle, breathable barrier against wetness and friction.
- Use at every change: A little goes a long way — apply as often as needed to keep skin soft and protected.
- Store: Keep the bamboo lid secured in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Best used within 6 months of opening.
Storage & Usage
Handcrafted in small batches, our products naturally last 6–12 months when stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Apply to the skin with clean, dry hands as often as needed.
What to Expect
Because we use pure, organic ingredients and no synthetic stabilisers, every handcrafted batch is naturally its own — colour, texture and scent can shift subtly with the seasons and temperature. That small change is the signature of a truly natural product, and it never affects how well it works.
Sensitive Skin
Real skincare should be gentle enough for everyone. If you have sensitive or reactive skin — or new to tallow — we always recommend a quick patch test on a small area first, then wait 24 hours before your first full use.

“We have used this tallow nappy balm on our little bub this year when she has had some nappy rash from the awful teething poos, and it has been a godsend. It can be a little tricky to spread on colder mornings, but once it has softened up it smooths out and offers a chemical free barrier for baby's delicate skin. It lasts well, and doesn't just wipe off when you change the next nappy. It's a real comfort to have a natural product to be able to use, and it works just as well as the usual big brands that are available.”
