Ecology Stories
Meet Kelly – from skin that’s dry and screaming out for moisturiser to feeling soft and hydrated for longer
Jul
Kelly, a busy mum of 2 needed simple, natural products that fit in with her ‘no fuss’ approach to skin care and didn’t cause redness, irritation or breakouts.
She’s so happy to have found our Ecology Creams – she finds them quick and easy to use and they leave her dry skin feeling soft and hydrated all day. The only problem is choosing a favourite!
Here’s Kelly’s story…
“I’m a 45 year old mother of two with a very busy lifestyle who really doesn’t have time for skin care.
I wanted something all natural and easy to use with no chemicals.
We are a family that likes to avoid additives and preservatives, so I make a lot of things from scratch including some skin care items.
But it’s hard for single consumers to find and purchase quality organic items, so I choose to buy from the experts. I like the peace of mind knowing that there are no hidden nasties in the products I use and that the best organic ingredients are used
My skin has always been dry and by the end of the day it was screaming out for moisturiser. Other products would eventually make my skin break out and be red and irritated – anything with chemicals in it, ingredients with names that you can’t pronounce just would not work for me or they left me drier then before I used them.
Ecology Skincare products leave my skin feeling soft and hydrated for way longer.
My skin feels and looks amazing. More hydrated and less wrinkly!! Softer and no irritation which makes me happier and more confident.
It’s so easy and quick to use and doesn’t leave me feeling greasy. First thing after my shower in the morning and just before bed. I find I don’t need a lot for it to feel great… smells amazing and still can’t decide which is my favourite as I have a few”

We are beyond happy for Kelly!
It’s always a win when you find moisturisers that soften and hydrate dry skin as well as fitting in with your ethos on reducing chemical exposure and using natural products.
Now you might be wondering why the Ecology Creams have been so helpful for Kelly…
Our Ecology Creams are handmade with a little known ingredient called grass-fed tallow.
Grass-fed tallow is a gently rendered fat (like emu oil), but it comes from healthy, grass-fed cows
(so this isn’t for our vegan friends!)
Grass-fed tallow might be ‘little known’ now… but everyone from the Aboriginal Australians to our great grandmothers used to use traditional animal fats like tallow, for everything from burns and chafing to blisters and wound healing.
And the reason why grass-fed tallow is good for skin?
- It contains the same kinds of fats and oils found naturally in healthy skin
- It contains fat soluble vitamins A, D, E & K …all of which are crucial for healthy skin (some of these are also antioxidants)
- It’s balanced in omega 3’s and 6’s …both are important for healthy skin
So this means grass-fed tallow can help replace missing lipids (the natural fats and oils) in skin’s outer layer …keeping moisture IN and allergens and irritants OUT.
…and helping to soften dry skin and leave it looking plump and well hydrated.
