The brightening, clarifying bar for hair and skin. The Primal Turmeric Tallow Shampoo & Body Wash Bar is made with 100% grass-fed beef tallow and organic turmeric, long loved for brightening the look of dull skin and refreshing the scalp. It gently cleanses and clarifies hair without the stripped, squeaky feel of detergent shampoo, doubles as a body wash, and is a great pick if your scalp feels flaky or congested, or your skin looks dull. Sulfate-free and gentle enough for regular use, head to toe.

Loved By Our Community
Dr Elizabeth Bright: As a doctor, I avoid commercial skincare, but The Primal cream and soap are different - just a few clean, trusted ingredients. It’s luxuriously smooth with a refreshing cedarwood tingle, and it’s now my go-to after mornings in the sun.
Dr Robert Kiltz: I love it! Another 100% clean product to add to my list!
Courtney Luna: My skin eats better than most people - these products are basically bougie steak fat for your face, and my skin is obsessed!
Maria Emmerich: Living on the beach is awesome but it can be hard on your skin! My boys and I love to spend our days in the ocean but afterwards their ashy skin would get irritated and painful to moisturizers. Even the “natural” lotions would cause irritation on their sensitive skin. That’s why when I found The Primal tallow based body balm, I was so happy! My boys finally didn’t fight me when I had them apply lotion after swimming! The Primal has been a game changer for my boys sensitive skin!
Jenny Mitich: I am very picky about what I put on my skin, and The Primal’s tallow products have become an absolute staple for me. They’re simple, nourishing, incredibly moisturizing, and they leave my skin feeling soft without all the junk I try to avoid. I genuinely love having a skincare option that feels this clean, ancestral, and effective.

I Made This Primal Tallow Balm For Us
Hi, I’m Rina, the founder of The Primal Tallow Balms and Soaps. I created this skincare line because I believe what we put on our skin should be as pure as what we eat.
My journey started with healing through nutrient-dense food, and it led me to skincare—because our skin absorbs everything. That’s why we use only 100% grass-fed, finished tallow, sourced from local farmers, to craft clean, deeply nourishing products without any harmful chemicals.
This isn’t just skincare—it’s a return to nature, to real ingredients that truly heal. I’m beyond excited to share this with you and to grow this movement of people who care about what they put on their skin.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the turmeric do here?
Organic turmeric is loved for its brightening, clarifying qualities, so this bar leaves hair and skin feeling fresh and balanced. Paired with grass-fed tallow, it clarifies without stripping.
Does it work as both a shampoo and a body wash?
Yes, one bar cleans from scalp to toes. Tallow cleanses without stripping your natural oils, so you can wash hair and body with a single product.
Will the turmeric stain my skin or hair?
No. We use a balanced amount of turmeric in a rinse-off bar, so with normal use it cleans away without staining your skin, hair or tub. Just rinse as usual.
Is there an adjustment period?
There can be. Switching from conventional shampoo, your scalp may take a week or two to rebalance as built-up product clears. The conditioning tallow base tends to make the transition gentler than a stripping bar.
Is it good for a dry or flaky scalp?
Yes. Tallow is close to your scalp's own oils so it cleans without stripping, and many people find it soothing for a dry, flaky scalp while turmeric leaves things feeling fresh.
Do I still need conditioner?
Many people use less, since tallow conditions as it cleans. Longer or drier hair may still like a light conditioner or a diluted apple cider vinegar rinse, especially at first.
