7 Green UK Hand Care Products A Beauty Review

At the beginning of 2020 could anyone have predicted what a hot topic of conversation hand care would become? All of us now know we must regularly wash our hands, but what about the toll this takes on our poor old hands?

[perfectpullquote align=”full” bordertop=”false” cite=”” link=”” color=”” class=”” size=””] My hands are now so dry and flaky from all the hand washing, they look like the hands of a much older woman!   [/perfectpullquote]

 

Hand Care Problems and a few solutions all made in the UK.

Dry skin, peeling cuticles, age spots, you name it I have it, dont mention bitten nails! Therefore in the name of vanity I have researched a few ‘new to me’ products. After trying several out on the family, here are a few of the favourites…

Disclosure this post does not contain affiliate links but products marked * were gifted. However I love them so much I would buy them myself next time !

 

Green People:

Green People, are the UK’s most loved natural and organic skincare brand. The use sustainably-grown plant ingredients that are clinically proven to care for your skin.  Cruelty free, no harsh chemicals and certified organic, what more could you ask for? £1 from certain items will be donated to the NHS. More details on the site. I recently wrote about their superb age defying skincare collection.

 

This is Marc’s favourite handwash, because its unscented and does the job!

With an unprecedented increase in demand for hand soap, Green people have responded with the launch of a new scent free hand care duo, designed to provide everyday protection for the whole family…

Nursem

I am sure by now that many of you will have seen this product, if you are a nurse you definitely will know about it! I love every thing about Nursem,their mission, the back story, the branding but above all the lovely products! I mentioned them first in my post about my recent online random purchases

Nursem Mission

Nursem promise that for every hand care product sold they will give a month’s worth of free Nursem to a nurse or a midwife.

The story behind the product.

Antonia the founder,worked for 11 years as a paediatric nurse. She often came home with sore, cracked and bleeding hands as a result of the constant hand washing needed to keep her patients infection free. In 2011 this became so bad that she was forced to take a week off work. Antonia needed to find a solution, so after teaming up with her husband, a group of British nurses, laboratories and Newcastle Science City Nursem was born!

[perfectpullquote align=”full” bordertop=”false” cite=”” link=”” color=”” class=”” size=””]I love every thing about Nursem the story, the branding but above all the lovely products![/perfectpullquote]

 

The products I bought:

Caring Hand Wash:

Cleans, protects, smells glorious and is free from the usual nasty parabens and chemicals and is certified cruelty free.

Caring hand cream:

I actually bought the smaller version for 9.99 but that is sold out until the end of June. Next time I will buy both, one for my handbag and one for the kitchen sink!

 

Key Active Ingredients:

  • Glycerin
  • Manuka Honey NPA 15+
  • Pro-Vitamin B5
  • Allantoin
  • Salicylic Acid
  • Vitamin E
  • Soya Bean Oil
  • Passion Flower Oil
  • Pomegranate Seed Oil
  • Grape Seed Oil

Ark skincare hand care products:

Ark skincare is an old favourite a truly comforting beautiful quality skincare range, suitable for all ages. Can you tell I’m a fan?

These are new to me products and obviously they can be used on your body and your hands bonus! I have been using them for the last couple of days and am delighted to report they do not disappoint.

Formulated for Body and mind and I absolutely agree. Used together, these two combined, not only make your skin feel silkier and softer, but the 100% natural fragrance will soothe your soul.  A fresh gentle scent, blending Rosemary and Clary Sage with soothing florals…

 

*Vitality hand and Body wash 250ml:

Smells so good! Great for sensitive skin, the hand and body cleanser with Vitamin B5 and Amino Acids. Produces a luxuriously rich lather which hydrates skin as it cleanses and ensures the integrity of the skin’s natural moisture barrier is maintained.

*Nourishing Hand and Body lotion 250ml:

Deeply nourishing hand and body lotion with Shea Butter, Kukui Nut and Coconut Oils, plus Minerals and trace elements, Amino Acids and Vitamin B5 . Instantly hydrates and helps to protect the skin, improves elasticity, and reinforces the skin’s natural moisture barrier.

Hello February! Happy as Larry with an armful of new fabric, bargain priced fabric, those lace fabrics were £1 pm 😳From local store @hansonsfabricsandcrafts Day made 🙌🏻
.
Big hello to new followers , let me reintroduce myself . . . I’m Ashley 👋🏻 a fabric and yarn obsessed midlife ‘gal’ 
Former air stewardess, costume maker and retail store manager. 
An empty nester with son at University, (he’s not too far away 😭) I feathered a new nest with 2 cats who live happily with our two dogs. 
My partner and I are keen on restoring pre loved vintage items of furniture lighting etc into unique pieces for our home. He does the hard work I draw the sketches and point at things. 
I post about my handmade life, sewing and crochet projects, our home restorations and occasionally the clothes and beauty products I wear and use as a midlife woman .
I find it very hard to be niche as I have too much to say! 
I have also been writing my blog Lazy Daisy Jones (link in bio) for almost 10 years. 
I very much enjoy connecting with other midlife girls on insta and proving it’s not just for the under 30’s . 
Leave me a comment if you are over 35 and any of this resonates with you Hellooooo x

Proud Muvva ! 
2nd year of his commercial photography degreeand a selection of my boy’s @jacobcramp work can be found in @pierjournal issue 2.
I think he takes timeless portraits. He only uses film and develops his own film too. I won’t mention what he thinks about digital photography ( 😳) 
He is also becoming an very good cook. He cooks for us when he visits. 
I can’t wait to see what the future brings for him.
