Tallow for Eczema and Psoriasis: Why It Works and How to Use It
Tired of Red, Itchy, Dry Skin?
Eczema and psoriasis are tough. The constant itching. The flaking. The burning. If you’ve tried every cream and nothing works long-term, you’re not alone. Many over-the-counter treatments only mask the problem — they don’t support real skin healing.
That’s why more and more people are turning to natural tallow-based skincare. It doesn’t just sit on your skin like a Band-Aid. It nourishes, hydrates, and helps your skin function like it should.
And yes — we make it. Right here in Australia. Small batches. No fillers. No fluff. Just real results. See our range here: Lulu’s Untainted Tallow Shop
What Is Tallow and Why Is It Good for Skin?
Tallow is rendered animal fat, usually from grass-fed cows. It might sound odd, but here’s the thing: tallow is almost identical to the natural oils in your skin.
When your skin barrier is broken — like with eczema or psoriasis — you need something that doesn’t irritate, clog, or dry it out further. Tallow does the opposite.
Why tallow works so well:
- Mimics your natural sebum (the oil your skin makes)
- Loaded with Vitamins A, D, E, and K
- No artificial preservatives or fragrance
- Helps calm redness, dryness, and inflammation
Tallow isn’t new. It’s what our grandparents and great-grandparents used before synthetic creams were even a thing. And it worked.
How Tallow Helps with Eczema
Eczema is often triggered by a damaged skin barrier. You lose moisture quickly, and your skin lets in irritants. Most commercial moisturizers are water-based, which means they evaporate fast, giving you only temporary relief.
Tallow is different.
- It forms a breathable, non-greasy barrier
- It locks in moisture for hours (not minutes)
- It supports healing with natural fats and vitamins
If your eczema is dry, cracked, or flaky, using a tallow-based cream like our Velvet Bloom can help calm and hydrate it without stinging.
How Tallow Helps with Psoriasis
Psoriasis causes skin cells to build up quickly, creating thick, scaly patches. It’s also triggered by inflammation deep within the skin.
Tallow can’t cure psoriasis, but it can help reduce the visible symptoms.
- Reduces flakiness by softening dry patches
- Soothes inflammation with Vitamin D and K
- Helps ease itchiness and tightness
- Encourages a healthier skin cycle over time
Our Harmony Glow and Tallowease Cream have helped many customers ease discomfort and improve their skin texture, especially when used consistently.
Real Ingredients. No Rubbish.
Most commercial creams are loaded with things like:
- Mineral oil
- Petrochemicals
- Preservatives
- Fragrance
- Alcohol
These can dry out or irritate eczema and psoriasis even more. Tallow doesn’t do that.
Our products contain:
- Organic Grass-Fed Beef Tallow
- Organic Olive Oil
- Essential Oils (in select formulas only — unscented options available)
- Magnesium (in our pain relief range)
That’s it. Simple. Pure. Powerful.

How to Use Tallow on Eczema and Psoriasis
It’s simple. Here’s what we recommend:
- Wash the affected area gently (no harsh soap).
- Pat dry — don’t rub.
- Apply a small amount of tallow cream to the area.
- Let it absorb. A little goes a long way.
- Use 1–3 times a day, depending on how dry the skin is.
For kids or extra sensitive skin, start with unscented options like our Soothing Baby Balm or Tallowease Cream.
