Soft hands are so good! It makes us feel better. Everyone would prefer to have soft and smooth hands, both women and men, and not just for the sake of appearance, but for our general well-being 🫶
I feel really bad when my hands are dry, and it affects the experience of everything I do, and it immediately takes over my thoughts 😣 It's typical that I get really dry after a lot of digging and planting in the garden and fields 👩🌾 Black under the nails, rough skin and real work hands (no long nails on this lady, haha). Then I quickly get a little desperate and reach for my regular best friends for the hands, which fortunately are quite a few in Vossabia's assortment 🐝😉 The herbal magic works on so many things, and of course also on the hands! 🙌
🐝 We have now collected some of the products that are PERFECT FOR YOUR HANDS in a nice little package of our own: The Garden of Hands , so that you can also quickly find the best for your hands 🤩 (because I'm guessing it's not just me who gets a little hysterical about dry hands). And in the next few days there will be a surprise in the package 🎁 a free gift: a completely newly developed hand balm from the garden with rose and Calendula ! 🌹🧡 It's heavenly on your hands! With lots of Calendula and rose in various forms, and then very carefully thought-out ingredients to care for our most important companions: our hands! 🤲
🫳 We use our hands to touch the world, to create and connect with others 🤝 We need them for all the tasks we take for granted from the moment we get up until we go to bed. Our hands wash, play, clean, turn and care for. We type and scroll, we do sports and culture, and our hands are involved, super essential, in everything we do 🫶 We sow precious seeds, plant and harvest, we cook the best meals. We create art, drive cars and trains, care for babies and the elderly, we pick up and put down. And no matter what we do every day with our hands, we feel a big difference whether they are soft and supple, or dry and cracked.
I have met so many amazing people at markets over the past 20 years, and many have extended their hands: 🫴 "Can you help me?".
I have seen cracked hands with hard skin, hands that bleed from wounds that open when the fingers are stretched out, hands with eczema and psoriasis, hands damaged by alcohol, washing, working with chemicals, and rough manly hands after many decades of hard manual labor 🥺 Many, many of these hands have become baby soft and beautiful, with a little herbal magic from Vossabia ❤️🩹🐝✨
Our hands certainly deserve to be cared for.the best ingredients and the greatest care , just like the rest of the body. That's why I've now created my own hand packThe garden is in your hands , and in the next few days you will receive a specially developedhand balm 🤩 you can test it out for FREE before we possibly put it on sale!💐💝 A summer gift and a giveaway for your hands! 🙌

The package containsthree basic productswhich have many different uses, and are also wonderful on the hands. In this package we have them in the smallest size,15 ml , so it's convenient to have in your pocket and bag and car and wherever you are:
🧡 I use Calendula Balm very often for my hands. With its healing properties and lots of nourishment, it is perfect for dry hands. Many have reported how quickly cracked fingertips heal with this adult Calendula ointment (born in 2004), and even painful and larger burns on hands have healed quickly and nicely with this universal product 🩹 I remember my grandmother always talking about Calendula ointment: "it saved my hands, Renate." She got 2nd and 3rd degree burns on her hands and never got over how good it did for her hands 🥰 But, you don't have to be injured or anything like that to love it on your hands! A little dry and uncomfortable, rub them in and feel how good it does right away. And as always: a small amount goes a long way!
🌼 Chamomile balm gives a little extra. Do you wash your hands often, dig in the ground or do a lot of manual work on the farm or workshop? Do you have rough, rough and very dry hands? Psoriasis and eczema? Try Chamomile Balm on your hands!! ✨ With chamomile balm on your hands you get hand care that provides intensive nourishment. It quickly relieves dry, super dry, incredibly dry, and damaged skin by adding moisture and care with lots of fabulous chamomile 🙏
🌿 Body balm with wild herbs is suppleness itself! Have you felt how smooth and silky it is on your body? Of course, it is the same on your hands too. And then with fabulous red clover, yarrow and St. John's wort, which we pick and pick everything we can these days! 💚 This is the lightest of these three goodies, and with barely a little fingernail amount you have enough for both hands where you feel on the go you need to add moisture and delicious plants from the garden and the hills here 🌱🌾
What is not included in this great Garden on Hands package is Cold Cream . Here at home we use this all the time on our hands, especially in the winter when our skin really needs a little extra 🥶 So if you have it lying around, just remember to apply it to your hands when you're out in the wind and weather. Cold cream protects a lot!

How to avoid dry, cracked hands and get baby-soft skin
Dry hands can be caused by many factors, from the environment to daily habits. Here we'll take a look at why your hands can become dry and what you can do in your everyday life to keep them soft and nice.
Causes of dry, cracked hands
1 · 🧼 Frequent hand washing
Frequent hand washing is important, but can strip natural oils from the skin. Use a mild soap, such as " Forest on the Body " from Vossabia or another good and gentle soap, and apply a moisturizing ointment afterwards, such as the product in the " Garden on the Hands " package.
2 · ❄️ Cold weather
Winter air dries out the skin. Wear warm gloves outside during this time of year, and lubricate your hands regularly with a good ointment. Always carry " Cold Cream " for extra protection for both your face and hands.
3 · 🧪 Exposure to harsh chemicals Cleaning agents and detergents can irritate the skin. Wear gloves and preferably choose products that are good for you and the environment. We use natural and organic Sonett detergents, and C Soaps's are also very good! 🫧🌱
4 · 🧓 Aging Older skin loses moisture more easily. Use moisturizing products with natural ingredients to keep skin soft and supple.
5 · 🩺 Medical conditions Eczema, psoriasis and diabetes can dry out the skin. Product with Calendula and chamomile can relieve such skin challenges, and is also known for its good properties on inflammation and wounds, and can be a good alternative to strong prescription medications for many.
Daily habits for softer hands 🙌💚
1 · 🤲 Lubricate yourself regularly Keep your hands well moisturized with beeswax and plant-based ointments. Look for products that nourish, care for and moisturize, like our pure natural products from Vossabia. 🐝🌱💚
2 · 🧽 Scrub your hands
Remove dead skin cells with a gentle scrub. Vossabia's " Citrus and Honey Scrub " and " Spicy Body Scrub " are perfect for getting rid of impurities and dead skin, and you'll be surprised when the scrub reveals how soft your skin is under layers of dead skin cells.
3 · 🧤 Wear gloves Protect your hands from chemicals and harsh weather with gloves when doing housework or gardening. I need to get better at that, because I love to touch the ground and dig with just my fingers and hands.
4 · 💦 Stay hydrated Drink at least eight glasses of water a day and eat foods with a high water content such as various fruits and vegetables to keep your skin hydrated.
5 · 🧴 Avoid harsh soaps Use soaps with nourishing ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, or jojoba oil. " Forest on the Body " is a good choice to increase the skin's moisture level.
With these tips, your hands may become softer and more resistant to dryness. Try the products and techniques that work best for you, and enjoy the feeling of silky soft hands! ✨🤲
