About our tallow

Tallow is nature’s original skincare ingredient - a deeply nourishing, bioavailable fat rendered from grass‑fed beef suet. Unlike synthetic moisturisers, tallow mirrors the fatty acid profile of skin’s natural sebum, allowing it to absorb beautifully and support lasting moisture balance.


Sourcing Our Tallow

At Dew Kind, we choose only certified organic suet from small, trusted New Zealand farms. These cattle graze freely on organic pasture, without growth hormones, routine antibiotics, or GMO feed. The result is pure, nutrient‑rich tallow that works in harmony with skin for gentle, lasting care.

✔️ No Growth Hormones – cattle grow naturally, without artificial intervention
✔️ No Routine Antibiotics – raised in healthy, low‑stress environments
✔️ No GMO Feed or Additives – pasture‑raised, chemical‑free cattle


Why It Matters

The nutrient profile of tallow reflects how the animal is raised. Conventional grain‑fed farming produces fat that’s lower in essential nutrients, while our organic, grass‑fed tallow is rich in:


Omega‑3 fatty acids
– help calm inflammation and support skin repair
Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) – promotes elasticity and resilience
Vitamins A, D, E & K – strengthen the skin barrier and support balance


This makes tallow one of the most skin‑compatible, nourishing moisturisers nature can offer.


Why We Use Organic Jojoba Oil

We blend our tallow with certified organic jojoba oil - a light, non‑comedogenic oil that closely resembles skin’s natural sebum. It absorbs quickly, hydrates deeply, and supports repair with vitamin E and antioxidants. Together, tallow and jojoba create a balm that is both protective and restorative.


Botanical Infusions for Gentle Care

Our balms are slowly infused with whole organic calendula and chamomile, bringing botanical goodness without harsh additives. We add no essential oils, just pure, nutrient‑rich tallow blended with organic jojoba and botanicals.

The result is a soothing, nourishing balm that feels as gentle as it is effective - safe for sensitive or reactive skin and perfect for daily care that restores, comforts, and protects.
