Intensive Care Hand Cream with Calendula Honey and Beeswax
£9.50 – £34.00
‘Editor’s Pick’ by the Green Parent Magazine Natural Beauty Bible 2018 and Highly Commended by Natural Health Magazine International Beauty Awards 2018 in the ‘sensitive skin range’
Our butchers love to use the Silky Hand Cream, fragrance free to protect their hands from the brine and cold wet conditions and it occurred to us that they need something richer which creates more of a barrier – so we developed this cream.
This cream is perfect for anyone who frequently washes their hands, uses harsh cleaners or wipes, or has particularly dry hands, as the rich combination of oils with the honey and beeswax not only moisturises deeply but the beeswax creates a lovely silky emollient cream. We have combined the oils with soothing and calming Calendula oil for those who have eczema and sensitive skin.
Like the Calendula Cream every ingredient is gentle and petrochemical free so perfect for young skin and we’re awaiting the certification for this to be also called our Happy Nappy Cream!
Calendula, the marigold flower, has been used for generations and is known to be beneficial for treating any skin inflammation including chronic conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, acne and any type of dermatitis. We have soaked the almond oil with marigold petals to infuse the goodness into the oil.
This cream was trialed for more than 18 months – only on our human friends of course – and the responses have been incredibly positive.

propolis cream with honey and beeswax (aka propolis salve)
£13.00 – £64.00An effective face and body cream with propolis which soothes, heals and breaks the itch scratch cycle.
Propolis is the most amazing ingredient with anti viral, anti fungal and anti microbial and anti bacterial properties
We made this cream to meet the needs of people with many varied skin conditions including acne, eczema, psoriasis and hives.
Bees protect their hives with this sticky resinous material collected from the sap of trees. It has been used forever to aid in the healing of wounds which is why we were keen to make this cream.
Our own propolis tincture incorporated into our fragrance free Fab Face Cream formulation will transfer these qualities to our skin.
Prior to certification we trialed this for 24+ months – only on human friends – and their feedback was incredibly positive.
People with psoriasis, itchy skin and eczema have reported real and lasting benefits and are now repeat customers.
Young people with acne and psoriasis have found it immensely helpful too.
Last summer, whilst tending our bees I was stung by both a bee+ some nettles. I always react badly to both. So, practising what I preach, I applied this cream and had not one minute’s reaction from either sting – how exciting is that? Also applied to treat a burn whilst making the BeeswaxWraps and the pain vanished SO quickly!

1864Natural Lip Balm in a Stick
£6.50Made to a traditional recipe combining our own beeswax with almond oil and a splash of vitamin E (wheat germ) – possibly the simplest and most effective lip balm there is. We have deliberately omitted fragrance or flavour as we believe that folk are tempted to lick their lips more, creating a vicious circle.
Our lip balm gently moisturises leaving a fine film of protective beeswax leaving lovely soft kissable lips, just as nature intended.
The balm in the stick is firmer than that in the tin making it very easy to use, even with gloves on.
Del Brown wrote a superb review about our lip balm – click on his name to read in full.
“….Not everyone wants a lip product with a fruity fragrance, so being fragrance free, both men and women feel comfortable using it. Unlike petroleum based lip balms that just form a barrier on the skin, the natural oils and bees wax in this product penetrate deep into the skin, hydrating dry lips and making them feel soft and comfortable.
This easy to use, fuss free lip balm is a winter essential and fully Del Brown Approved!”
2019 new packaging; a push up cardboard container (containing twice as much lip balm as previously).
9 ml stick – £ 6.50 (a softer lip balm is also available in a tin)

We have soaked the almond oil with marigold petals to infuse the goodness into the oil and made our light fragrance free body cream formulation and the calming qualities will be transferred to our skin.

Vania
Excellent cream. I’ve been trying loads of different hand creams and finally found the right one. I don’t like to feel creamy hands so this is perfect as it absorbs instantly and you don’t feel grease palms. As I wash my hands 100 times per day, a cream is mandatory and this is the one. I like the 35 ml tub format so it would be ideal a 100 ml tub format. Very satisfied.
admin
so pleased to hear your comments Vania, we made it especially for people who have to wash their hands repeatedly for work as the extra intensive beeswax and oils combo offers more of a barrier – we’ll look at a larger tube too

My hands can get very dry (especially after frequent washing and harsh weather) and this is such a lovely, nourishing hand cream that isn’t too heavy. Has a nice texture and natural light scent from the ingredients – love that it has no added fragrances 🙂
Vivien
I could not rate this cream more highly. I’m still suffering with the after effects of chemotherapy several years later. I’ve tried every cream on the market! This hand cream, when applied at bedtime, works wonders for relieving my dry cracked fingers. I’m able to continue with my sewing and knitting again.
Simon
Attend the maple road stall on the weekend and meet the sweetest guy Robin, I showed him my eczema on my hand and he let me try some of the intensive care propolis hand salve cream. He also gave me a free sample pot. Fantastic customer service. I liked the cream and it wasn’t oily which is what I hate about most other creams. It left a light wax layer on my hand and instantly made a difference. I shall give this a go for a week and order a big pot if I get on with it. Thank you very much.
Alison
our pleasure, fingers crossed the cream helps your skin
