Allantoin

When it comes to skincare, some ingredients do their work quietly — no scent, no drama, just reliable, daily performance. Allantoin is one of those underrated heroes. It’s the ingredient your skin knows, trusts, and heals with — especially in hardworking areas like your hands.

That’s why we’ve included allantoin in our hemp Hand Protection Cream — where it helps soothe irritation, support skin regeneration, and leave your hands feeling soft, never greasy.

What Is Allantoin?

Allantoin is a naturally occurring compound found in plants like comfrey, chamomile, sugar beets and wheat sprouts. Most modern skincare uses a synthetic, vegan-friendly version, which mimics the natural compound’s gentle healing effects — without the potential allergens.

It’s known for being:

Non-irritating, even on sensitive or compromised skin

Highly compatible with the skin’s natural repair process

Ideal for dry, flaky, rough, or chapped skin

Skin Benefits of Allantoin

Soothes and protects

Calms redness, tightness and irritation

Creates a gentle protective film without clogging pores

Promotes skin renewal

Encourages natural exfoliation and cell turnover

Helps cracked or overworked skin heal faster and more comfortably

Improves texture and softness

Makes rough or dry skin feel smoother and more supple

Helps retain moisture and supports the skin’s lipid barrier

Non-sensitising and fragrance-free

Safe for most skin types, including those prone to eczema or dermatitis

Pairs well with plant-based butters and oils in barrier-focused skincare

Why We Use It

Your hands do a lot — and they often take the brunt of it: cold wind, frequent washing, cleaning products, dirt, sun exposure. Allantoin helps bring them back to balance.

We use it in our Hand Protection Cream to:

Soothe dry, stressed hands

Support skin repair without irritation

Improve long-term softness and reduce flaking

Work in synergy with hemp seed oil, macadamia oil, and stearic acid to rebuild the skin barrier

It’s one of the key reasons our hand cream feels like a balm but absorbs like a dream.
