Full of nutritious, skin-friendly apricot kernel and rapeseed oils, soothing honey and juniper hydrosol, this hand cream is a serious contender for best ever. Lavender and rose geranium provide an unbeatable aroma. This is made in small batches, without any skin-harming nasties, with herbs from our garden.We use nothing but the most delicious rose geranium essential oil to give it a beautiful aroma, but geranium does so much more too: helps regenerate skin cells, and keep you safe from little infections so easily picked up when your hands are hard at work, good at stopping blood flow, and of course it is a wonderful toner.Marjoram & Almond Nutritious HandcreamThis is a very useful, fresh herb cream that actually works: it softens and feeds the skin, and has some useful healing herbs added. It absorbs easily, without leaving any oiliness. The fresh aromas of marjoram, lavender and rosemary have been added to the highly nutritious emollient oil of sweet almonds along with a lot of useful moisture in the form of a lemon balm infusion and hydrosols of marjoram and juniper. There is even a touch of honey and beeswax to bring some extra vitamins and minerals and keep moisture locked into the skin. Juniper, rosemary, marjoram and lavender all have cleansing, clearing, antiseptic properties. Juniper is also useful in reducing bumps and small swellings.INGREDIENTS: Melissa officinalis (lemon balm) infused in aqua (water), hydrosols of Oreganum majorana (marjoram) and Juniperus communis (juniper) prunus dulcis (sweet almond) oil honey cera alba (beeswax) cetostearyl alcohol and stearic acid (plant-based emulsifying waxes) Naticide (plant-derived bacterial inhibitor) essential oils of Oreganum majorana (marjoram) and Lavendula augustifolia (lavender), Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary), which include geraniol, limonene, linalool. certified organicINGREDIENTS: Origanum majorana( marjoram) and Juniperis communis (juniper) hydrosols Brassica napus (rapeseed) oil (Ribes nigrum) blackcurrant seed oil (Prunus armeniaca) apricot kernel oil, honey cera alba (beeswax) stearic acid emulsifier ‘parfum’ Naticide (plant-derived bacterial inhibitor) Pelargonium graveolens (rose geranium) and Lavendula augustifolia (lavender) essential oils which contain linalool.certified organic’These are powerfully good hand creams, probably the best I’ve ever found.
