Nourishing Hand Cream by Himalaya
These days, we wash our hands more often than ever. Water and soap remove not only dirt, but also the natural oil layer from your skin. This hand cream by Himalaya is made to make your hands feel supple again afterwards. It contains coconut butter and lavender oil and comes in a 50 ml tube that fits in any coat or handbag.
Coconut butter, the lesser-known brother of shea butter
Coconut butter comes from the seeds of the Garcinia indica, a tree that grows along the west coast of India. It is a firm, light butter that melts at body temperature. Compared to shea butter, kokum feels less greasy, and you can tell that in this cream: it absorbs quickly. In addition, it contains castor oil, glycerin, and vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate). Together, they keep your hands supple and soft.
Lavender for a calming scent
Lavender oil gives the hand cream its recognizable, soft scent. That floral note pairs well with the creamy base and is not overpowering. Good to know: lavender oil and perfume naturally contain fragrance substances such as geraniol, coumarin, and citronellol. These are neatly listed on the INCI list. If you are sensitive to fragrances, take a quick look before applying.
Why your hands get dry faster
What many people do not know: the skin on the back of your hand is thin and has relatively few sebaceous glands. Because of this, it dries out faster than, for example, your face. Cold, wind, and frequent hand washing make this even stronger. Many people wonder how often you can use a hand cream. In short: as often as you want. After washing is a logical time, because that is when your skin is most dehydrated.
In short: Nourishing Hand Cream is a light hand cream with coconut butter and lavender. A small tube for every day, that absorbs quickly and leaves your hands feeling soft.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best way to apply hand cream?
Take a small amount and spread it over the backs of your hands, between your fingers and around your nails. Massage until the cream is absorbed. It is best to do this on clean, dry hands.
What is kokumboter?
Kokumboter is a plant-based butter made from the seeds of the Garcinia indica, a tree native to India. It is firmer than oil but melts on your skin. In this hand cream, it provides a soft, supple feel.
Do your hands stay greasy after applying?
No, the cream absorbs quickly. If you use too much, rub the excess into your forearms. After a minute or two, you can touch everything again.
Why is lavender in this hand cream?
Lavender oil gives the cream its scent. It is an essential oil from the flowers of Lavandula angustifolia. Because it naturally contains fragrance substances such as geraniol and coumarin, these are listed separately on the INCI list.
What is the difference between hand cream and body lotion?
A hand cream is usually richer than a body lotion but still absorbs quickly, as you use your hands again immediately. A body lotion is lighter and intended for larger areas. For your hands, which you wash often, a proper hand cream feels nicer.
