Available in two blends, delightfully scented ‘Almond’ or ‘Natural’, a neutral alternative for those looking to harness the benefits of the hand cream without the unique almond fragrance. Both lotions use a combination of Olive Oil sourced from Palestine, the home of the Olive, and fair trade Guatemalan Honey to create an intense natural hand cream.

Light, non-greasy and easily absorbed, the hand creams utilise the amazing hydrating and protective properties of Olive Oil and Honey to leave your hands feeling soft, supple and hydrated. Furthermore they are suitable for everyday use, are fully recyclable, vegetarian society approved and made in the UK.
