Everything hard-working hands need

For hands that are washed a lot, often in water, or hard at work: hairdressers, cleaners, gardeners, builders and busy parents. Like all our products, everything in the bag is a multi-tasker, so it comes to the rescue in plenty of other little skincare emergencies too. Buying the kit costs less than buying each item separately.

Inside the bag

  • 30ml Calendula and Marshmallow Balm: our most hydrating balm, for chapped, very dry or rough hands
  • 30ml Zinc and Calendula Cream: a soothing barrier cream to protect hands before they go in water
  • 100g Calendula Soap: made for us by Lomond Soap with our own calendula flowers. Rich in shea butter, palm oil free and unfragranced
  • A natural wood and bristle nail brush, for clean nails and gentle exfoliation
  • All in a Lyonsleaf cotton drawstring bag

The balms are suitable from 4 weeks, so the whole family can share them.

The packaging is 100% recyclable (glass jars, metal lids, paper and cardboard) and we only use biodegradable postal packaging.

Ingredients

Full ingredients are on each product's page: Calendula and Marshmallow Balm, Zinc and Calendula Cream and Calendula Soap.
How To Use

  • Wash: use the soap and nail brush to clean hands and nails gently.
  • Protect: before washing up, cleaning or other wet work, rub in a little Zinc and Calendula Cream as a barrier.
  • Hydrate: after work and at bedtime, smooth Calendula and Marshmallow Balm into dry or chapped skin. For very dry hands, apply the balm first and layer the zinc cream over it.
  • Soap care: keep it on a dish that lets it dry between uses, and use it within 12 months.

Storage

Keep in a cool, dark place to protect the natural ingredients and stop solid products melting.

Melted, or gone grainy? Here's how to reset it.
The water-free revolution

Our skincare is made without water, so it needs no preservatives or emulsifiers. Nothing is diluted, so every ingredient is active and a little goes a long way: small pots, less packaging.

    We despatch orders Monday to Friday and we always dispatch the same working day (if ordered before 12 noon) or the following working day.

    Will my skin react to Lyonsleaf Products

    Our products are all 100% natural and free from all artificial chemicals. Because they are water free we can even avoid antimicrobial preservatives and emulsifiers. For this reason it is very unusual for anyone to react to our products at all. However some people are sensitive to essential oils, so if you are super-sensitive please choose unfragranced product options. Even less common, it is possible to be allergic to calendula and other herbs, so it is always important to do a patch test. In the unlikely event that you do have an adverse reaction, you can return your product for a full refund. We also sell samples of most products so you can try before you invest in a big pot.

    Why is the pot so small?

    Lyonsleaf products are water free and contain only the finest, plant oils, butters natural waxes and mineral ingredients. Most high Street products are up to 80% water, which means you need to apply them much more liberally and frequently. You will find you only need to use Lyonsleaf products very sparingly to achive good hydration that lasts all day. Products that are rich in soothing herbs can be used more frequently to achieve the best calming effect, but they still only need to be used sparingly. So these little pots go a long way, using less packaging and less transportation resources.

    Are Lyonsleaf products vegan?

    Much of the Lyonsleaf range is vegan, but we do use organic beeswax in some products. When it came to choosing a suitable wax, we decided it would be better for the environment to choose a farming method that promotes pollinators rather than a vegetable mono-crop that causes deforestation and loss of habitat. We only use organic beeswax as organic farming standards require farmers to have high welfare standards for Bees.
