Product Description
The Busy Bees Thyme & Honey Hand Cream in Tin combines festive charm with skin-loving care. Despite its name, the formulation is completely honey-free and vegan, offering the botanical goodness of manuka leaf extract — a natural antioxidant — and bee balm flower extract, known for its calming, restorative properties.
Enriched with shea butter, cocoa seed butter, and vitamin E, this velvety hand cream melts into the skin, leaving hands feeling smooth, soft, and comforted. The scent is warm and subtly herbal, evoking the freshness of thyme and the natural sweetness of the garden.
Presented in a beautifully designed tin, it makes an ideal Christmas gift, stocking filler, or winter self-care treat. And with every purchase supporting the Bumblebee Conservation Trust, it’s a gift that gives back to nature too.
