The Body Shop® difference: Hands are generally immersed in water more often than the rest of the body and are always exposed to the elements. Couple that with the fact that hands have very few sebaceous glands, and it means hands need help to maintain moisture. To keep hands soft and hydrated, always wear gloves in the winter. Avoid using harsh household cleaning products on bare hands, which can strip skin and nails of the natural layer of moisture and protection. Most importantly, don’t forget to give your hands the special care they deserve with our Almond Oil Hand & Nail care range.
Sweet almond oil
Provides essential fatty acids that help to repair the skin's moisture barrier, thus helping to restore moisture, smoothness and suppleness.
Organic soya oil
Has moisturizing and healing properties that make it ideal for intensive skin care treatments. It's also a source of income for organic farmers in Brazil.
Shea butter
Moisturizes and helps soften the skin. Also provides a rural community of women with regular work and income.
Lanolin
Is one of nature's richest moisturizers. It is readily absorbed by the skin and so provides good protection for rough, dry hands.
Organic beeswax
Moisturizes and helps to condition dry skin, especially on your lips and around the fingernail beds. Acts as a barrier that helps to seal in moisture. Helps to keep product texture consistent when used over time. Plays a part in protecting and preserving the forest as well as providing necessary income for the beekeepers, an increasing number of which are now women.
