Designed For Hard Working Hands, But Has Multiple Uses

The Fresh Lavender Hand Rescue Bar was developed especially for hard working hands that are

• Frequently exposed to water

• Compromised from constant hand washing/sanitizing

• Constantly handling drying materials

• Gardening

Even though we focused mainly on ingredients to help hands, this bar proved to be useful for so much more!

After testing extensively (and with feedback from both testers and customers), we were happy to discover this formulation is also effective for dry patches, cracked skin, elbows, heels, and everywhere an extra boost of nourishing skincare is called for.

“The non-greasy feel makes it an absolute winner”

Lots of participants have given us feedback like this statement from Laurie Nash of Seed and Glow in Australia, and we’re thrilled to hear how many have been happy with their bars.
