Hand Care - Product Review
Burt’s Bees Hand Salve
Burt’s Bees Hand Salve is another organic product, but I am not all that exuberant about this one.
Its ingredients list includes sweet almond oil, olive oil, beeswax, tocopheryl acetate and tocopherol (Vitamin E), comfrey root extract, rosemary oil and leaf extract, lavender oil and extract and eucalyptus oil. All great ingrediants but the product doesn’t work for me. I find it too oily and I put it on and it doesn’t soak into the skin fast enough. Neither do I like the scent of it but the eucalyptus which gives it its smell is not a favorite of mine.
However, its very oily properties might be good for extremely dry hands. Maybe I could use surgical gloves after I slather it over my hands and get a deep moisturizing treatment.
