Tuft Hand Balm Restock!
Has anyone else noticed how dry your hands are now that using hand sanitizer has become an Olympic sport that we're all gonna medal in?
We love Tuft Woolens lanolin-rich hand & body balm because it delivers loads of delightful smelling lotion right where you need it, thanks to the handy applicator. The cap fits on the base securely so that the entire balm can live comfortably in your purse or project bag so that you never have to go without. Organic shea and cocoa butters team with lanolin and coconut oil to condition and smooth rough patches, and beeswax keeps moisture where it belongs.
