About us

Hi, I’m Anouk — the mum behind Zalig Skin.

Zalig Skin was born in my kitchen — between nap times, cups of tea, and baby giggles. Like many mums, I wanted something simple and safe for my family’s skin — no long ingredient lists, no harsh chemicals, just nature doing what it does best.

A few years ago, while trying to ease my post-pregnancy pigmentation, fine lines, and dryness, I discovered the magic of tallow. I loved how soft and calm my skin felt — so I started making my own, slowly tweaking each batch until it was even better.

Now, I use the gentle baby balm for my little ones, and the lightly scented balm for myself — both rich in grass-fed tallow, raw honey, beeswax, and olive oil.

What began as a personal ritual has grown into Zalig Skin — skincare that feels real, grounding, and blissfully simple.

Originally from the Netherlands and now based in beautiful Wollongong, I’ve always been drawn to slow living and simple beauty. “Zalig” means blissful or divine in Dutch — a little reminder of how your skin should feel, and how I hope this balm feels when you open the jar.

Every batch is slow-made by hand, with care, calm, and love.
From my kitchen to yours — thank you for supporting this little dream.
