Is it greasy?
It sinks in within a minute or so if you use a pea-sized amount. Use more and it will sit on the skin.
How long does a tube last?
It depends how often you use it. A 2.5 oz tube used a few times a day lasts most people several weeks.
What's the difference between the sizes?
Only the amount. The 1 oz travel tube is the same cream, small enough for a coat pocket.
Can I return an opened tube?
Opened creams can't be resold, so we can only take back unopened tubes — unless something's wrong with it.

How to use it

A pea-sized amount, on damp hands.

  1. 1. Wash, then pat your hands mostly dry.
  2. 2. Squeeze out about a pea's worth.
  3. 3. Rub it in — backs of the hands and knuckles first, that's where skin gets driest.
  4. 4. Keep a tube where you wash your hands most.

What's in it

The same base cream in every tube. The only difference between them is the scent.

same cream, 6 scents
  • Shea butter

    The base. Rich, and it doesn't feel waxy once rubbed in.

  • Sunflower seed oil

    A light oil that sinks in quickly.

  • Glycerin

    Draws water into the top layer of skin.

  • Jojoba oil

    Closer to a wax than an oil; leaves hands soft, not greasy.

  • Fragrance

    In the five scented creams only. The Unscented tube has none.

  • Patch-test first if you have sensitive skin, and don't use on broken skin.
