nebula soothing hand balm

For dry, overworked hands that need serious nourishment without greasiness

Hands feel smooth and soft within minutes, with no residue or greasy film.

with Biodynamic Thyme

Cultivated on our farm in Bologna using biodynamic methods, thyme contains thymol and carvacrol, phenolic compounds with strong antimicrobial and antioxidant activity that help protect the skin barrier and support cellular repair in dry, stressed hands.

with Organic Bergamot

Cold-pressed from organically grown citrus peel, bergamot oil is rich in linalyl acetate, a compound that promotes skin cell regeneration while providing natural antiseptic protection. It also delivers the balm's distinctive fresh, bright top note.

with Fair Trade Tea Tree

Ethically sourced, tea tree oil contains terpinen-4-ol, a monoterpene with clinically studied antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. It helps maintain skin hygiene and calm micro-irritations on frequently exposed, hard-working hands.

with Rice Bran Oil

Rice bran is rich in gamma-oryzanol, ferulic acid, and vitamin E, a combination that provides potent antioxidant protection while deeply softening the skin. Its light molecular weight allows fast absorption without greasy residue.
