Our Story

Hello, I'm Hannah and I'm the founder of Luxe Lather,

A Little Bit about myself and family... 

I have a partner Andrew, and we share the joy of raising two beautiful girls aged 2 and 4.

In 2023, my partner Andrew sought out some land on the outskirts of Brisbane. A farm where we could raise our own 100% pasture-raised, grass-fed cattle. It's really important to us as a family to know where our food comes from and what we put on our skin. I've been exploring ancient and traditional skills, like preserving food, canning, and making jams. After producing our own food and preserving them, this then sparked the idea, I wonder if I can make our own skin care? I had heard of tallow being used for many different things but had never tried making it myself. I decided to give it a go.

I did my research, found out there was few different ways of rendering the fat, a little daunting, I decided to give it a try anyway.

There was a lot to learn throughout the process but I finally came up with a recipe and method I was happy with. I was amazed how well it moisturizes, protects and nourishes skin. We have been using it for a few years now and shared my creams with friends and family along the way.  

After a couple of years, soaking up tips from fellow tallow enthusiasts on the optimal purification methods, trialling different methods of rendering tallow, blending and pairing recipes, I'm thrilled to say I adore all my Moisturizers and happy to share my creations! 

Luxe Lather will be launched this year April 30th with my 5 variations of Tallow moisturizers.
