Description
We are gradually reformulating all of our products and the great news is that this product is now Palm Oil Free and Vegan Friendly!
This 100% Natural Intensive Treatment Balm for Dry Hands is one of my best selling products. It has butters of Cocoa and Shea to soften and Oils of Hemp and Carrot Root to soothe and restore dry cracked hands and chapped skin. It’s pretty intensive and not something you would probably want to be applying several times a day – I recommend using it last thing at night to give it chance to do its work while you slumber. It’s made from butters, precious oils and Essential Oils and nothing else. For dry cracked hands that are a bit worse for wear (or indeed elbows or knees) simply apply a tiny amount and give it chance to soak in. I have found our Intensive Hand Balm popular with those of you that spend a lot of time outdoors, especially gardeners and it seems to be extremely popular with nurses and hairdressers and also blokes with skin problems that refuse to use other creams, including mechanics, roofers and farmers!

This Balm was the first thing I ever made – and I made it to help treat my own eczema. I just wanted something to put back some of the moisture into my sore dry skin – and this is the result and it has changed very little since I first made it. I don’t claim for it to cure your eczema but I know how important it is to keep your skin moisturised. So if you suffer from eczema or just have overworked hands try this……if you fancy giving your hands a real boost – try applying too much Hand Balm to your hands and then wrapping them in cling film and sitting, just so, for an hour –(ideal when watching TV possibly). The cling film makes your hands warm and the skin seems to really suck in all the lovely butters – your hands feel fantastic afterwards. (I speak from experience)

Thanks, Siobhan – what bliss! Arrived as promised and exactly what my poor, cold-chapped hands need. Will be sleeping with my hand balm tonight (so to speak!)
Caroline, West Yorkshire –
An intensive natural balm, non greasy with extreme moisturising properties. The smell is fresh and zesty. I use during the day, also when my hands feel really dry during the winter months. The pot size can fit in a handbag too and lasts forever! This is quite a unique product, one of my favourites of the P&F skincare range

I’ve been buying this for years and years and it’s the only thing that soothes my sore chapped hands that are more than a little sensitive. Colour is a bit disconcerting – but go with it you only need a tiny tiny bit – its really the best….

I bought this for my daughter who suffers with terrible eczema on her hands. No creams from the doctor have helped at all so I thought I would give this a try after talking to you at the Manchester Markets. Needless to say I was back the following week to buy more as after 7 nightly applications her fingers are nearly healed… I cannot recommend this enough for anyone with sore, chapped or even eczema prone hands. Thank you

This is remarkable stuff- I have used it once daily on dry, chapped hands and eczema and it has cleared both issues right up!
Smells lovely and lasts ages, a perfect combination.
I will not be using anything else on my skin from now on.
Siobhan Pringle –
Thanks for your review Natalie – my Hand Balm is just about the heaviest recipe I could come up with and it’s the first thing I ever made and for myself way before I had a business – glad it works for you too – your thanks are much appreciated xx

I used it at night as it’s really moisturising and wake up with lovely hands in the morning.
It’s a must during winter
