Artisanal Products

My socially engaged practice involves facilitating collective, social food growing and art making within the local Blue Mountains community and with young people in a public high school setting. I am currently a PhD Candidate in social design at the University of Technology Sydney, looking at the role of civic fresh food initiatives in creating greater social and environmental health and community care mending social fragmentation and environmental degradation.

Kellie Clarke is the founder and formulator behind Suet Skincare, a handcrafted, non-toxic skincare range based in the Blue Mountains, NSW. Drawing on her background in holistic living and functional nutrition, Kellie creates small-batch products that honour the earth, the body, and the spirit, crafted with intention, reverence, and care. Originally from Victoria, Kellie relocated to the Blue Mountains to live in deeper alignment with nature and her values. Her journey into skincare began as a personal commitment to a toxin-free lifestyle, experimenting with natural, nutrient-rich ingredients to create products that were not only effective but deeply healing. This passion evolved into Suet Skincare, a brand grounded in sustainability, integrity, and the power of ritual. At the heart of Suet Skincare is golden tallow sourced from a regenerative, organic farm in Hartley, NSW. Blended with shea butter, cocoa butter, and pure essential oils, each product is rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, designed to hydrate, restore, and uplift. Every balm, soap, and serum is infused with frequencies of love and connection, transforming daily skincare into a soulful practice. Kellie continues to expand her knowledge through ongoing study in functional nutrition and holistic health, ensuring that Suet Skincare remains rooted in wellness science and spiritual intention. Her products reflect a devotion to conscious living and a belief in skincare as a pathway to vitality, balance, and beauty, inside and out.
