Hemp Hand Protector from the Body Shop, costs £5 at the moment for 30ml and £10 for 100ml - I think it can be bought online at places like Ebay and Amazon too. I suffer from severely dry hands... more

    Advantages Advantages Moisturises really well, lasts for ages.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Expensive.

    I was desperate!! My hands had got so dry they were almost cracking and looked permanently dirty. I had tried a few products without success and was so fed up I went into The Body Shop in Harrogate, held them out to the assistant and said, "Please have you got something to sort these out?!" She took one look and said, "Oh my God" or similar, then took me over to the Hemp stand and recommended this product with no hesitation. I read the blurb which described it as "heavy duty for hardworking hands" and recommended it for gardeners and other people whose hands took a lot of stick. So despite the ... more

    Advantages Advantages Excellent results, subtle slightly masculine scent, hygienic packaging, lasts ages.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The price is a bit steep but it is worth it!

    Being a man I am not really into beauty products and the whole regime thing, to be honest I don't have the time, inclination or sticking power when it comes to doing something once or twice a day like that. Her indoors always goes on at me and says how much easier my life would be if I tried having a regular regime I stuck to when it comes to looking after my skin. Before I met her I used soap on my face and shower gel on my body, that was it when it came to cleansing, but now I use whatever cleanser she buys, exfoliate once a week (ish) and my skin does feel better for it but as for creams ... more

    Advantages Advantages Has made my hands look and feel a lot better. Not sticky for long.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not the cheapest.

    My hands are very prone to being dry and flaky when the weather is cold and as the weather has been very cold this time around, my usual hand cream wasn't doing a good enough job. Having recently been converted to the Body Shop products in a big way and seeing this product for half the usual price, I decided to give it a go. I've heard good things about the Hemp range but as it's always seemed to be better for intense moisturising, I'd never actually delved into it before. With my hands in a pretty dire state though, this seemed like a perfect option. USING IT The cream is a very light green ... more

    Advantages Advantages A really effective cream for dry hands.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Takes time to be absorbed

    Hemp? In the Body Shop? I had always looked with some suspicion on their shelves of hemp-based products. I don't know why, I kind of felt a bit uneasy about them. As though people might look at me, looking at the shelves, and think "Hmmm. we know what she gets up to." However, my opinions have been totally changed since I was out with a friend and she gave me a dab of her Body Shop Hemp Hand Protector. She told me she had found it excellent for her hands which get chapped and flaky in cold weather. She also said people with skin conditions like excema find it very effective. When she squeezed ... more

    Advantages Advantages The best thing for very dry skin I have found, natural product, wonderful smell

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No mind-altering reaction!

    Hemp is something of a maligned plant, you know. The very mention of the word brings to mind images of people getting stoned on cannabis, of hippies and drug use. But seriously, hemp is actually a mere cousin of the psychedelic drug, and the levels of THC (the psychoactive bit) are so low in industrial grade hemp as to be almost non-existent. Honestly! I mean, would I really be reviewing mind altering hand cream on a family site such as this? ;-) The hand cream I am on about comes from the Body Shop – you remember the place, surely? It was where we all bought our natural product smellies ... more
