Hyaluronic Acid
When your hands feel dry, tight, or rough — it’s not just moisture they need, but the ability to hold onto it. That’s where hyaluronic acid comes in.
This powerhouse humectant is a must-have in modern skincare, and we use it in our Hemp Hand Protection Cream to deliver deep, lasting hydration that leaves hands feeling smooth, comfortable and nourished — even after washing or exposure to the elements.
What Is Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a sugar molecule that occurs naturally in the body — especially in the skin, joints, and connective tissue. Its claim to fame? Unmatched moisture-binding ability.
In skincare, we use a plant-derived, skin-safe form of hyaluronic acid that mimics this natural function — drawing water into the skin and holding it there like a sponge.
Just 1 gram of hyaluronic acid can hold up to 6 litres of water.

Why We Use It
In hand care, hydration isn’t optional — it’s essential. But greasy textures or surface-only moisturisers often don’t cut it. Hyaluronic acid changes that.
In our Hand Protection Cream, hyaluronic acid:
Pulls hydration deep into the skin
Works synergistically with hemp seed oil, macadamia oil, and allantoin to lock in moisture and promote healing
Improves softness and comfort even after multiple uses or washes
Leaves a breathable, non-sticky finish that suits everyday wear
Where You’ll Find It
A carefully balanced formula that hydrates, heals, and protects — powered by hyaluronic acid for skin that stays supple, no matter what your hands are up against.
Who It’s Great For
Chronically dry or rough hands
People frequently washing hands or working outdoors
Anyone seeking lightweight, non-greasy hydration
Those with mature, sensitive, or reactive skin needing long-term moisture support
Hyaluronic acid might be the most buzzed-about ingredient in skincare — and for good reason. In hand care, it’s a quiet game-changer: keeping moisture where it belongs so your hands feel good, look healthy, and stay protected day in, day out.
