A potent, anhydrous balm blending rich Avocado, Hemp, and Olive oils with protective Beeswax to deeply nourish and lock in moisture.
This formulation is an anhydrous (water-free) balm consisting entirely of oils and waxes. The blend of Avocado, Olive, and Hemp Seed oils provides a rich source of fatty acids for deep nourishment. Beeswax serves as an excellent occlusive, forming a protective barrier on the skin to lock in moisture, which is ideal for working hands or cracked skin. Jojoba oil helps balance the mixture due to its similarity to human sebum. However, without water or volatile silicones, this product will be significantly heavier and greasier than a standard lotion, leading to slower absorption.
The safety profile is outstanding, featuring 100% natural ingredients. There are no synthetic preservatives, fragrances, petrolatum, or parabens. Tocopherol (Vitamin E) is a safe, naturally derived antioxidant used to extend the shelf life of the oils. The risk of irritation is very low, though users with specific allergies to Coconut or bee products should be cautious. Note that because of the Cera Alba (Beeswax), this product is not vegan.
This is a high-quality, restorative salve rather than a daily lightweight cream. It excels at repairing extremely dry or damaged skin thanks to its potent blend of emollients and occlusives. While the lack of quick absorption might make it less convenient for immediate use before touching paper or electronics, its purity and efficacy for intensive hydration are excellent.
This hand moisturizer distinguishes itself by being a completely water-free balm rather than a traditional emulsion or lotion. Without the dilution of water, every ingredient serves a functional purpose to moisturize and repair the skin barrier. The base of the formula relies on heavy-hitting plant oils like Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil and Olea Europaea (Olive) Oil. These are rich in oleic acid and vitamins, making them excellent for penetrating deep into the epidermis to soften rough calluses and soothe extreme dryness. The addition of Cannabis Sativa (Hemp) Seed Oil brings a wealth of omega fatty acids, providing anti-inflammatory benefits that are ideal for irritated or overworked hands. Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil is a thoughtful addition; because its structure mimics human sebum, it helps the heavier oils absorb more effectively, preventing the mixture from sitting solely on the surface. However, the most critical component for longevity is Cera Alba (Beeswax). As a natural occlusive, beeswax forms a breathable, protective shield over the skin, locking the nourishing oils inside and preventing moisture loss due to cold wind or frequent hand washing. Because the formula contains no water, it requires no synthetic preservatives, relying only on Tocopherol (Vitamin E) to prevent the oils from oxidizing. While the purity of this formula is a major asset, the texture will be polarizing. It will feel heavy, thick, and greasy upon application. It lacks the “vanishing” quality of water-based lotions, meaning your hands will remain slippery for some time. Consequently, this product is best utilized as a nighttime treatment—perhaps worn under cotton gloves—or as a barrier salve applied before outdoor activities in harsh weather. It is not suitable for those who need to touch paper or electronics immediately after use. Furthermore, because it relies on sealing moisture in rather than adding water, it works best when applied to damp skin. Finally, the inclusion of beeswax renders this product non-vegan, although it remains a fantastic option for those seeking 100% natural, vegetarian-friendly skincare.
