Is this winter ever giving up? I don’t think my body can take any more of this dry, cold weather. My hands are dry, rough and cracked and nothing up to this point seemed to help them. The Body Shop Hemp Hand Protector is one of their best-selling products that helps to soften and protect hands throughout the year. It’s dermatological tested for even the most driest of skin and contains Community Trade hemp seed oil from England and organic beeswax. It helps to restore moisture and hydration back into the skin and protects and repairs skin’s natural moisture barrier, to prevent future damage. It leaves your hands feeling soft, supple and smooth throughout the day.
The Body Shop Hemp Hand Protector comes in a squeeze tube and has a very thick and creamy texture that almost melts into the skin once applied. It features a non-greasy, non-sticky formula that instantly penetrates into the skin for dramatically smoother hands. It absorbs quickly, but thanks to its unique formula is also helps to protect the skin from the environment, it leaves almost a barrier on the skin that keeps them hydrated all day, even after hand washing. It has a very earthly, herbal, hemp scent that lasts a few hours before fading. It keeps skin soft, smooth and hydrated for a solid 12 hours.
The Body Shop Hemp Hand Protector is the only moisturizer to-date that actually lasts throughout the day. I put it on in the morning and even after several hand washings, my hands are still hydrated. I then apply it in the evening before bed, and I wake up to perfectly moisturized hands. I’m not a huge fan of the scent, a little too “hippie” for my liking, but because of the amazing results, I continue to use it. I no longer suffer from dry, parched hands and the fact that it is double duty, by protecting and hydrating, I love it even more. I’ve also been applying it to the heels of my feet, best foot moisture you’ll ever try. A little really does go a long way, I try to apply the smallest amount, which usually is too much and then I just apply the rest to my feet. This small tube will last months and retails for $20 for 100ml.
I purchased the almond one this weekend. Smells deeelish!!!
This has been my go to winter hand cream for years. I agree the smell is very odd but nothing else heals and prevents the cracking skin I get in winter. I buy the Hemp Body Butter for those scaly knees and elbows too!
I also have been using this for a while. The smell is not what I consider to be pleasant and turned me off of it. I have taken a empty body shop body butter tub and mixed it with some left over body butter I had, same great results with a better smell.
