" I never used to use hand cream - I never needed it. Then, I became a parent, and my hands were constantly in water, in nappies, on baby wipes, washing dishes and clothes, cleaning dust off toys, sick off the floor, etc, etc, and 13 years later, I need to use hand cream six or seven times a day. At least, I did until I finally made my own herbal formulation to suit my skin - now I only use it 3 or 4 times a day, and hopefully less and less as my hands are properly nourished.

love your hands

Dry hands aren't the same for everyone. Your unique persona means a unique expression of who you are, and that expression can be seen on the skin. You may have dry hands that are chapped; dry hands that are always cold; dry hands that have the propensity to be itchy; dry hands that get blotchy ... and so on. Each of these expressions is best served with a different set of herbs, and that's before we've looked at adding flower essences to the mix for the emotions you always seem to need to work at.

If you're anything like me, you value your hands. I've written books with mine, painted and drawn what's in my heart, played the guitar and violin, held my daughter, grown food, given and received ... I can't imagine being without them and they deserve to be looked after. So I'm passionate about helping you find the right hand cream that works so you don't have to consistently apply it 24/7.

​A mini-consult is all you need for a bespoke hand cream and I've tried to make the process as painless as possible for you. Simply request a mini-consult using the form below, then I'll email you instructions for filling out the personal and medical details I need from you, and I should be able to make your cream for you and send it in the post within a week. If I have any further questions, I will email or text you. This mini-consult is not suitable for treating skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis. These are multi-layered problems and need a full consultation - often with internal herbal remedies required - to treat properly. The mini-consult is simply for a bespoke, nourishing hand cream that suits your unique needs.

it's important to understand that persistent skin conditions are indicative of a deeper imbalance and require a full herbal consultation in order to find a more lasting solution

My creams have a sweet almond oil base (sometimes another base oil is used depending on your needs) and are made with herbal tinctures and pure essential oils, ensuring longevity and a fresh, clean scent. Flower essences can be added. They come in amber glass jars for a longer shelf life in the most natural way possible.

• 30ml jars are convenient and small enough to carry in your handbag (and last longer than you might think)
• 60ml jars mean larger quantities for less cost
