Family Ointment – Unscented Skin Butta for the whole family.
This waterless, tallow based butter will melt and absorb easily to nourish and repair skin from head to toes!
Using only the purist, nutrient dense tallow and selected hypoallergenic oils, this gentle creamy body butter is an effective healing “skin food” that is suitable for all skins.
Especially sensitive skins (from baby to adult) will benefit from its healing properties.
Contains NO irritating scents or components – just pure healing, gentle goodness from the selected ingredients.
Tallow Benefits:
- Deep Hydration & Moisture Retention: Tallow is a semi-occlusive ingredient, meaning it creates a protective layer on the skin that helps lock in moisture, preventing it from evaporating. This can be particularly helpful for dry or damaged skin, as it helps to restore and maintain hydration.
- Skin Barrier Repair: Tallow is rich in fatty acids, which are essential components of the skin barrier. By mimicking the skin’s natural oils, tallow can help to nourish and strengthen the skin barrier, making it more resilient to environmental stressors and damaging irritants.
- Nutrient-Rich and Anti-Inflammatory: Tallow is packed with vitamins A, D, E, and K, which are known for their skin-loving properties. It also contains anti-inflammatory fatty acids, like linoleic acid, that can help soothe irritated skin and reduce inflammation associated with conditions like eczema or psoriasis.
- Skin Longevity Effects: Vitamins A and E in tallow are known for their antioxidant properties, which can help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. The moisturising and nourishing properties of tallow can also help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, promoting a more youthful complexion.
Added to our base of Grass Fed Free Range Tallow are a selection of Low PUFA oils which contributes to the skin nourishing and healing properties of this hypoallergenic body ointment.
Hexane Free, Cold Pressed Castor Oil: Offer benefits of moisturisation, provide a protective barrier against dryness, and potential anti-inflammatory effects. It can also help to reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks, and it may help lighten age spots.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO – Western Cape): Contains antioxidants – vitamin E, polyphenols, and phytosterols which help protect the skin from premature skin aging & restore skin smoothness. A rare compound in olive oil – Hydroxytyrosol – prevents free radical damage to the skin.
Its emollient properties help to lock in moisture and prevent dryness, making it a great choice for dry or damaged skin. Has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties that can soothe irritated skin, speed up wound healing, and prevent infections. Helps to increase skin elasticity and regenerate skin tissue, potentially reducing the appearance of stretch marks.
Marula Oil: Marula oil is an emollient, meaning it soothes, softens, and adds moisture to the skin. It seals in hydration, helping to keep skin supple and prevent dryness. It has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, which can help soothe irritated skin and reduce redness.
True free range and grass fed animals will yield fat that differs from season to season due to weather conditions and the available vegetation in the pastures they graze on.
The smell of this product will differ from batch to batch and from season to season due to this, i.e. the tallow (fat) smell might be more prominent in certain batches.
Use in combination with any of the Pure Primal Skin Hypoallergenic Face & Body Soap Bars.
Alternatively, use the Pure Primal Skin Bath & Shower Silk to wash with and apply the Family Ointment afterwards for healthy skin.
*Pure Primal Skin artisan nutrient-dense products are small batch, hand-made unique items with color/scent/consistency that might vary due to ingredients that change together with the seasons!

This skin butta is one of a kind! I had a big grin with my first application, because it literally looks like grass fed butter, just a whole lot softer. I could feel the nourishment that it gives my skin. It absorbs beautifully & gives great protection against environmental factors. It’s such a blessing to know that you are giving your skin the nourishment it so desperately needs, and the knowing that 60% of what absorbs into your bloodstream will be beneficial and not harmful. Thanks Sylvie & Team for a phenomenal product!
