Neve's Bees Lemon and Lavender Hand Salve

Wave goodbye to sore hands with this super nourishing hand cream which is fab for treating chapped hands. The beautiful fragrance of Lavender essential oil is blended with refreshing Lemon Oil for a fresh twist on a traditional recipe. Lavender oil is traditionally used to help the healing process of wounds, burns, cuts and sunburn. Most creams or lotions are a mixture of water (aqua) and oils - have a look at the ingredients on the back of the pack. Because oils and water don't mix (think of oil and vinegar) the manufacturers add emulsifiers to bind the oil and water together - these are not normally chemicals that benefit your skin. Also, because water can grow bacteria, manufacturers selling products in the UK are legally obliged to add preservatives to kill any bacteria - so most skin creams contain chemicals that will kill bacteria in the cream...and also on your skin. We prefer not to upset the skin's natural skin flora so chose not to add water to any of our products - so we don't need to add any synthetic emulsifiers and preservatives. This special mix of pure beeswax with its natural honey and propolis blended with pure plant oils soothes, nourishes and treats hands making them soft and smooth again. The ultimate treatment for dry or chapped hands in need of some TLC. Discover how beeswax hand creams work.
