If you're going to put beef fat on your skin, this is the one.
Tuttofare, pronounced "toot-oh-FAR-ay", is the brand so many of you asked me to bring onto Clean Nectarine. I finally got to meet them at the Naturally Good Expo in 2025, and I really loved their philosophy and product range. Everything is completely natural, made with 100% grass-fed and grass-finished beef tallow, plastic-free, and all the products smell beautiful (with no tallow smell at all).
Behind the brand are husband and wife team Laura Daquino and Clive Wright, who started Tuttofare in Melbourne in 2022 and built Australia's first professionally formulated tallow skincare brand, with everything made in a GMP-certified facility. Tallow is often treated as a waste product of Australian farming, and Tuttofare upcycles grass fed and grass finished tallow from local producers into skincare instead. The name is Italian for a do-it-all, and the scents are all inspired by Italian holidays, which you will see all over the range.
The Tuttofare Tallow Face Balms
There are three facial balms in the Tuttofare range. The easiest way to choose between them is by skin type: the Holy Grail is the richest and most nourishing for dry or sensitive skin, the Roman Blue is calming for reactive skin, and the Sicilian Citrus is the lightest for oily, combination and acne-prone skin. Each one has a completely distinct scent, and a small amount goes a very long way. They work morning or night and layer well with whatever else you are already using.
Their signature balm, the Holy Grail Tallow Balm, is the richest of the three. It's a blend of raw, unrefined cocoa butter and tallow with a warm, chocolatey scent. It looks solid in the jar but melts on contact with the skin and absorbs without any greasy residue. This one is also great to use on the body and is suitable for dry or sensitive skin anywhere.
The Roman Blue Tallow Balm is the one for sensitive skin or skin that is easily irritated. It's made with blue tansy and Roman chamomile, both known for their calming properties, blended with olive squalane, jojoba oil and tallow. It has a soft floral scent.
The lightest of the three is the Sicilian Citrus Tallow Balm, which is great for oily, combination and acne-prone skin. It's made with jojoba oil, green tangerine and orange bergamot. It has a bright citrus scent and feels light on the skin.
Tuttofare Not Your Regular Body Oil
The Not Your Regular Body Oil is a nutrient-dense body oil made with a blend of tallow, olive oil, castor oil and buriti, known as the "tree of life" for its high vitamin A and fatty acid content. This is a really unique body oil with a scent of blood orange, cypress and tonka bean, and it sinks into the skin with no oily after-feel. It's great for after dry body brushing too.
The Tuttofare Natural Deodorant
The newest arrival, and the first tallow deodorant I have seen anywhere. The Tuttofare Natural Deodorant is a solid stick that neutralises odour with magnesium hydroxide and zinc ricinoleate while staying gentle on underarm skin, with tallow and cocoa butter doing the softening. The scent is fresh eucalyptus and peppermint with a hint of Australian gum, it glides on with no stickiness, and even the packaging is plastic-free biodegradable cardboard. It went into the store the moment they launched it. If you are new to natural deodorant altogether, my complete guide to natural deodorant covers making the switch.
Complete Your Routine
Tuttofare also make a cleansing oil and a face mist to sit alongside the tallow products, and both are tallow-free. They are made to work together with the balms to build a complete routine.
The Tuttofare Cleansing Oil is made with castor oil, jojoba, olive oil and coconut oil, with a gentle Roman chamomile aroma. It makes an ideal first step in a double cleanse, melting away sunscreen, makeup and daily build-up without stripping the skin's natural moisture barrier, but you can also use it on its own.
The Tuttofare Naturally Active Face Mist is made with snow mushroom, quandong, lemon verbena, bitter orange and dandelion extract to refresh and tone the skin. Mist this over the face after cleansing before applying your balm to lock in hydration, or use it over makeup as a setting spray during the day.
What Order Do I Use the Tuttofare Range In?
Step 1: Cleanse. Massage the Cleansing Oil into dry skin, then rinse.
Step 2: Mist. Spritz the Naturally Active Face Mist over freshly cleansed skin.
Step 3: Seal it with a balm. Press in the balm that matches your skin type while the mist is still settling.
