"A lifesaver for my hands—and my nails!" I work in healthcare and wash my hands constantly. My cuticles were splitting, and my hands looked 20 years older than I am. This balm is the only thing that truly heals—not just masks the problem. It sinks in beautifully, smells amazing (subtle, fresh—not perfumey), and my nails have actually started growing stronger. I keep one in every bag now.

"Feels like a spa treatment in a jar." I’ve tried so many “natural” hand creams, but they all left a film or faded in minutes. This one is totally different. You can feel the quality—from the texture to the way your skin actually stays soft for hours. I even use it on my elbows and heels. It’s become a nightly ritual for me—like pressing reset on my skin.

    Is it greasy or sticky?

    Never. It melts into skin with a velvet-rich finish, thanks to plant-derived Squalane and Jojoba that mimic your skin’s natural barrier. You’ll feel deep nourishment without the residue—perfect for all-day use.

    Good for hard working hands

    Great little hand balm, good for hard working hands. I like to use it after washing dishes. It does make a positive difference to my skin.

    Nourishing

    This is a small tin of hand and cuticle cream. I’ve tried products by this brand before and really like them and this rescue cream is no exception. The cream is white in colour and has a lovely lightweight consistency. The product sinks in effortlessly into the skin leaving it feel soft and nourished. The scent is very subtle. Convenient size for on the go. Would get again!

    Great cream but expensive

    This is really nice cream. It works great on my super dry and cracking hands and feet. It healed up a bad crack in my heel in just two nights. It comes in a cute little metal tin. It’s very expensive though, I could no way justify the price for how much cream I get through. It’s such a small tin, I could literally use it up in a few days.

    Skin-saving cream

    This hand and cuticle rescue cream is a skin saver! I suffer from patches of very dry skin on my right hand once a month, and it normally takes a whole month for the skin to recover, only to become dry and hard again. This cream has made an impressive difference after using it twice a day for the last three days. One spot is very calloused, and thanks to the cream, the hard skin is slowly peeling away and revealing softer skin. The cream, consisting of a variety of natural ingredients, is a light whipped cream that melts into the skin and revitalises it almost instantly. I am sensitive to lots of creams and lotions, but I don't get any burning, stinging or other irritations from this one. The scent is also very light – a very soft floral scent that isn't overwhelming (I'm very sensitive to fragrances as well!). Not much is needed per application, as just a dab spreads generously across the skin and soaks in quickly. The cream comes in a little round tin. I did struggle to open the tin, as the lid is very tightly secured. I ended up asking my husband and daughter to open it, and it even took them several tries to unscrew the lid! However, now that it's open, I just don't close it as tightly. If your skin needs some TLC, this might just be the right cream for you.

    Excellent!

    Fabulous hand and nail cream with a wonderful, gentle fragranceThis product is beautifully presented, with 2 tins in a delightful box, bearing full details of the ingredients and directions for use, and the reassurance of being organic, vegan & cruelty free. As if it couldn't get any better, the cream works a dream on my tired, dry hands, so I'm hooked! A tin is just the right size to pop into your handbag or pocket making it accessible to use anywhere. My hands have never felt so soft. A great gift or a little bit of luxury for yourself. I love it!

    Impressively good

    This is the first time I've ever used an Onsen product, so I didn't really know what to expect.Happy to say this has really helped with my extremely dry cuticles and hands. Only a little bit is needed, but it spreads easily and is completely none greasy. It leaves both hands and cuticles very soft and moisturised. It is fast turning into one of my favourite products.

    So good for dry skin!

    I really love this balm. It's honestly made a good deal of difference already to how soft my hands and cuticles feel and I've even started using it on dry patches like my elbows when they're feeling a bit rough. The smell is lovely, quite botanical and a little spa-like, but it fades quickly. It's a very natural and pleasant smell, not over-fragranced just to feel fancy. The cream itself is definitely on the thicker side when you first scoop it out but it sinks in very quickly when rubbed in and it absorbs super nicely without leaving any greasiness or stickiness. There's an obvious and immediate softening of the skin.The pots themselves are lovely and they are screw caps, not a tin you have to pop up. They feel very well made and look great. They're very compact so good for travel if you want to pop one in a bag. A little goes a long way, which is great because the pots are, again, admittedly quite small, but I think they will last well as the glide is very good and you only need to use a very minimal amount each time. Because of this, I think the value is rather reasonable. Very handy (pun not intended) and I'm happy to recommend!

    Moisturizes dry cuticles and toes.

    This hand and cuticle cream has a very creamy consistency. I love that it’s not too dry and hard like other cuticle cream products.

    This comes in a 26 ml twist top tin container. It’s made of jojoba oil, shea butter, carnauba wax, squalane that does a great job moisturizing dry cuticles, hands and feet. My feel get really dry in the summertime. This worked so well, even after 1 application. I don’t have to use a lot of product. Just a small amount works well. Highly recommended.
