Tallow absorbs beautifully into skin, due to the fact that it is similar to or own natural skin oils, allowing for deep absorption. Although tallow is greasy at first, it absorbs into the skin within about 20 minutes, leaving a lovely dewy feeling without the heavy grease. If your skin is naturally oily, you may only require a very small amount of tallow, whilst people with dry or depleted skin may find more ample amounts beneficial.

Sēlkyn Tallow has two non toxic, 100% natural, aluminium free deodorant options.

Which deodorant is right for you?

Our Lemon Myrtle deodorant uses a bi-carb and arrowroot base, while our Frangipani, Eucalyptus and Mandarin uses an arrowroot and diatomaceous earth base.

Some people can experience sensitivity to bi-carb. That’s why we created a second option.

If your skin tolerates bi-carb, it’s highly effective at controlling odour and is often preferred for its strength.

If you’re sensitive, the diatomaceous earth formula offers a gentler alternative. It’s still naturally alkaline, but less likely to irritate the skin.

Conventional deodorants contain on average 10-30 synthetic ingredients and chemicals that are applied to highly absorbant skin covering the lymph glands and breast tissue. These chemicals are known to interfere with a persons endocrine system, effecting the thyroid, menstrual cycle and fertility - just to name a few.

Sēlkyn Tallow have created two flavours of deodorant to choose from, containing zero harmful ingredients and work really well. See our review page for evidence.

Sēlkyn Tallow uses all organic ingredients and infuses the tallow with carefully selected botanicals through a special slow infusion process, putting the quality and efficacy of the products above the rest in Australia. Through this slow infusion method, Sēlkyn Tallow products are highly therapeutic and provide targeted results that reduce inflammation, irritation, redness, the appearance of fine lines and uneven skin tone. Sēlkyn tallow is one of the only tallow brands in Australia that uses this process to craft their tallow, setting them apart from the other brands.

Slow herbal infusions are a method of extracting the full spectrum of fat soluble nutrients and minerals out of the herbs used within the tallow, through low heat and over a specific period of time. This results in a highly therapeutic product that has targeted impact on the skin, reducing inflammation, irritation, dehydration and signs of ageing.

Yes you can. Many people prone to acne find tallow very restorative for their skin. Although acne is mostly caused through an internal imbalance, such as hormonal or gut imbalances, tallow can help reduce inflammation and repair a damaged skin barrier. Tallow closely resembles the natural oils produced by human skin, known as sebum. Because of this similarity it tends to absorb easily and support the skin barrier, as well as nourish it. Many conventional moisturisers contain synthetic fillers, emulsifiers and seed oils that can disrupt the skin barrier and contribute to congestion. In contrast lipid rich formulas such as Sēlkyn Tallow provide nourishment without unnecessary additives.

Tallow can be a supportive option for people effected by eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis, particularly when these conditions are linked to a weakened skin barrier.

Grass-fed organic tallow is rich in skin compatible fatty acids such as oleic acid, pulmitic acid and stearic acid. These lipids closely resemble the natural oils produced by the skin, allowing tallow to absorb deeply, helping to restore the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.

Using natural formulas, such as those found in Sēlkyn tallow, allow the skin to to receive the nourishment and support that it needs, rather than being bombarded with synthetic fragrances, harsh chemicals and preservatives and common irritants found in many popular non organic skincare products.

For most people Tallow is non-comedogenic, meaning it is unlikely to clog your pores. Heres why - Tallow is highly compatible with human skin. The fatty acid profile of grass-fed tallow is very similar to the natural lipids (fats) found in our skin barrier, which means it tends to absorb easily rather than sitting heavily on the surface.

Tallow skincare is made from purified, rendered animal fat, most often from grass-fed beef, that’s rich in natural lipids similar to those found in human skin. This similarity is believed to help support the skin’s natural barrier and moisture balance.

Tallow skincare is often used on the face, body and lips to help soften and protect the skin as part of a natural daily routine.

As with any new skincare product, it’s best to patch test first to ensure your skin responds well. When applying tallow skincare, a little bit can go a long way. Start with a small amount on the face and a more generous amount on areas prone to dryness, such as legs, the elbows, knees and heels.
