Reviews about The Body Shop Vegan Shea Hand Balm

I am delighted that this cream is now available in sizes of 100ml and 30ml! From 2022-2023, I constantly bought it in Poland, and the only tubes available were 10ml ones made of eco-plastic. The sellers told me several times that there were no larger tubes because the formula did not have enough preservatives and would not last long. But now the company has finally switched to metal tubes with sealed nozzles, and it turns out that even the 100ml size can last without spoiling.

The Shea balm itself is fantastic! It moisturizes and nourishes the skin well, while also being absorbed completely, just like a balm/butter should be, without leaving any film or stickiness. It is perfect for when the skin is tight and has micro-cracks from frequent hand washing.

I also use it in the treatment of moderate eczema on my fingers, along with a corticosteroid and antihistamine, because even between applications of the corticosteroid, the hands still need moisturizing, and this cream does the job.

It's also worth noting that all the creams from this brand are very fragrant, and the scents linger on the skin. For me, products with shea, avocado, moringa, and argan are less sweet and overpowering, but their rose, grapefruit, strawberry, coconut, and satsuma scents were suffocating to me.
