Vegan Hand Cream for Dry, Hard-Working Hands
This rich vegan hand cream is designed for dry, hard-working hands that need a little extra comfort after gardening, washing up, outdoor work, office life or everyday tasks.
Made in the UK with organic avocado oil, fair trade shea butter, evening primrose oil and vitamin E, it gives a nourishing, balm-like feel without being runny. A little goes a long way, making it ideal for hands that feel dry, rough or exposed to the elements.
Our Organic Working Hands Cream is vegan, cruelty-free and presented in a handy 50ml plastic free tin. It has a light natural floral aroma from organic lavender and geranium essential oils, rather than artificial fragrance.

I absolutely love this product and also this whole brand with its understated minimalist packaging and the soothing, nurturing ingredients. It really does work. These products are absolutely beautiful. So pleased I’ve found them!”
