Natürliche Handpflege: Warum deine Hände 98% Natur verdienen

Natural hand care: Why your hands deserve 98% natural

Synthetic ingredients or natural plant power? Animal testing or ethical beauty? Plastic packaging or sustainable materials? Discover why natural hand care is more than just a trend – and how Neroli Hand Cream with Figs pampers your hands in the most beautiful, natural way.

Imagine picking up your hand cream and reading the ingredients list. What do you see? Long chemical names, numbers, terms you can barely pronounce? Or do you recognize natural ingredients you could also find in your kitchen?

More and more people are consciously choosing natural cosmetics – not just because it's a trend, but because they understand that what we put on our skin, our body absorbs. And just as we pay attention to our diet, we should also be selective about our skincare.

At Eterna Concept Store in Stäfa on Lake Zurich, we believe in the power of nature. That's why today we present the Neroli Natural Hand Cream with Figs – a hand cream with 98% natural ingredients that proves that natural care can be luxurious, effective, and ethically sound.

The difference between natural and synthetic

Not all hand creams are the same. The biggest difference lies in the ingredients—and thus in the philosophy behind the product.

Synthetic hand creams: Fast, cheap, questionable

Many conventional hand creams contain:

  • Mineral oils (paraffins, petrolatum) : petroleum-based substances that form a film on the skin without actually nourishing it
  • Synthetic fragrances : Can cause allergies and irritate the skin
  • Parabens : Controversial preservatives with hormone-like effects
  • Silicones : Give a smooth feeling, but seal the skin and prevent breathing
  • Microplastics : pollute the environment and enter our waters
  • Aggressive emulsifiers : Can weaken the skin barrier

These ingredients are inexpensive to produce, have a long shelf life, and often feel "pleasant" on the skin in the short term. However, in the long term, they can weaken the skin, trigger allergies, and contribute to environmental pollution.

Natural hand creams: Slow, effective, sustainable

Natural hand creams rely on plant power, organic ingredients and skin-friendly formulations :

  • Plant oils : Avocado oil, almond oil, rosehip oil – nourish the skin deeply
  • Plant butters : Shea butter, cocoa butter – repair and protect
  • Natural moisture : Aloe Vera, Glycerin – provide long-lasting hydration
  • Essential oils : Neroli, Lavender – natural fragrances with added value
  • Vitamins from nature : Vitamin E, Vitamin A – anti-aging without chemicals
  • No harmful additives : Free from parabens, silicones, mineral oil

These ingredients are more expensive, more complex to process and have a shorter shelf life – but they are skin-friendly, effective and sustainable .

The Neroli Natural Hand Cream: 98% pure nature

With 98% natural ingredients , Neroli Hand Cream with Figs is one of the purest hand creams on the market. This means that almost everything in this tube comes directly from nature – without long detours via chemical laboratories.

The fig: ancient beauty secret

The fig has been a symbol of abundance, fertility, and beauty for thousands of years. Cleopatra is said to have used fig extracts for her legendary beauty. Why?

Figs are rich in:

  • Vitamins : A, B, C, K for healthy skin
  • Minerals : Potassium, Magnesium, Calcium for strength
  • Antioxidants : Polyphenols protect against free radicals
  • Natural sugars : Moisturize and soften the skin
  • Enzymes : Promote cell renewal

In the Neroli Hand Cream, the fig not only provides a wonderful fragrance but also real nourishing power.

Aloe Vera: The desert plant with superpowers

Aloe vera is one of the world's most well-known medicinal plants. The transparent gel from the fleshy leaves:

  • Provides intensive moisture : polysaccharides bind water in the skin
  • Soothes irritations : relieves redness, itching and tightness
  • Cools and refreshes : Perfect for stressed, overheated hands
  • Promotes healing : Enzymes support regeneration
  • Protects the skin : Forms a fine protective film

Aloe vera is especially valuable for people who need to wash or disinfect their hands frequently – it immediately compensates for moisture loss.

Shea butter: African skincare gold

Shea butter is extracted from the nuts of the shea tree in West Africa and is one of the richest natural skin care products available.

What makes shea butter so special?

  • Extremely nourishing : High content of fatty acids (oleic acid, stearic acid, linoleic acid)
  • Deep acting : Penetrates into deep skin layers
  • Repairing : Heals cracks, rough patches and dry skin
  • Protective : Strengthens the skin barrier against cold and dehydration
  • Anti-aging : Vitamin E and phytosterols combat skin aging

Shea butter makes even very dry, stressed hands buttery soft again – without leaving a greasy residue.

Sweet almond oil: pure gentleness

Almond oil is extracted from the kernels of sweet almonds and is known for its exceptional gentleness . It's so mild that it's even used on baby skin.

Almond oil:

  • Soothes sensitive skin : Ideal for irritations and allergies
  • Makes the skin soft : Leaves a silky feeling
  • Absorbs quickly : No greasy residue
  • Relieves itching : Especially on dry, flaky skin
  • Cares for the cuticles : makes them soft and supple

The high concentration of vitamin E makes almond oil a miniature anti-aging miracle.

Rosehip oil: The regeneration miracle

Rosehip oil is extracted from the seeds of the wild rose (dog rose) and is a superstar in natural anti-aging care .

What can rosehip oil do?

  • Regenerates stressed skin : Essential fatty acids (Omega-3, Omega-6) repair skin damage
  • Reduces pigment spots : Natural vitamin C brightens
  • Reduces wrinkles : Vitamin A (Retinol) smoothes fine lines
  • Improves elasticity : Makes skin firmer and more youthful
  • Protects against UV damage : Lycopene acts as a natural sunscreen

Rosehip oil is particularly valuable for mature hands or hands with pigment spots and the first signs of aging.

Vitamin E: The skin protection angel

Vitamin E (tocopherol) is one of the most important antioxidants for the skin. It:

  • Neutralizes free radicals : Protection against pollution and UV radiation
  • Slows down skin aging : Prevents wrinkles and loss of elasticity
  • Promotes wound healing : Supports regeneration in cases of cracks and injuries
  • Moisturizes : Improves the skin's moisture retention
  • Strengthens the skin barrier : Makes the skin more resistant

Vitamin E is the bodyguard of your hands – it protects them from harmful influences day and night.

Glycerin: Natural moisture reservoir

Glycerin is a natural moisturizing factor found in our skin. In Neroli Hand Cream, it ensures that:

  • Moisture is bound : Draws water from the environment into the skin
  • The skin remains supple : Prevents dehydration
  • The skin barrier is strengthened : Supports the natural protective function
  • The skin appears smooth : Fills unevenness

Glycerin is the reason why your hands remain soft and hydrated even hours after applying cream.

Cruelty-free: Beauty without suffering

One of the most important questions we should ask ourselves about cosmetics: Did animals have to suffer for this product?

The Neroli Natural Hand Cream is free from cruelty and certified by the Leaping Bunny program – one of the strictest and most trusted certifications for cruelty-free cosmetics worldwide.

What does Leaping Bunny mean?

The Leaping Bunny logo guarantees:

  • No animal testing in any development and production phase
  • Suppliers also do not conduct animal testing
  • Regular independent audits ensure compliance
  • Protection of all animals – not just pets, but also wild animals

This certification is stricter than national laws and is considered the gold standard for animal-friendly cosmetics worldwide.

Why is animal testing in cosmetics unnecessary?

Modern cosmetics no longer require animal testing:

  • Proven ingredients : There are thousands of tested, safe ingredients
  • In vitro tests : laboratory tests on cell cultures instead of animals
  • Computer models : AI can predict skin reactions
  • Human patches : tests on human skin (with consent)

With Neroli Hand Cream you show that beauty doesn't have to come at the expense of animals.

100% vegan: Plant-based power

The Neroli Natural Hand Cream is not only cruelty-free, but also 100% vegan – this means:

  • No animal ingredients : No beeswax, lanolin, collagen or keratin
  • No exploitation : No "gentle" use of animals
  • Purely plant-based : All active ingredients come from the plant world

Why vegan is better:

  • Ethical : No animals are used for cosmetics
  • Sustainable : Plant-based ingredients are more environmentally friendly
  • Tolerated : Often better for sensitive skin
  • Effective : Plants provide all the nutrients the skin needs

You can care for your hands with a clear conscience – beauty without compromise.

Sustainable packaging: Good for the skin, good for the earth

True sustainability doesn't end with the product. Packaging is just as important!

Recyclable materials

The Neroli Hand Cream is shipped to:

  • Recyclable cartons : Can be put directly into the waste paper
  • Compostable cornstarch pads : Biodegradable, leave no residue in nature
  • Without plastic film : Avoid unnecessary plastic

Minimalist design

Less is more:

  • No excessive packaging : only the essentials
  • No plastic filling material : natural alternatives
  • Space-saving : fewer transport emissions

With every order, you actively contribute to waste reduction – a small step with a big impact.

Produced in small batches: quality over quantity

Mass production may be efficient, but it has disadvantages:

  • Less quality control
  • Often older goods on the shelf
  • Less attention to detail

Neroli Natural Hand Cream is produced in small batches – this means:

Highest quality

Each batch is carefully monitored and inspected. If something isn't perfect, the entire batch is rejected—unthinkable in mass production.

Freshness

You always get freshly produced goods. No cream that's been sitting in storage for months or years.

Craftsmanship

Small batches allow us to perfect every detail. You'll feel this with every use.

control

Each batch is tested for effectiveness, texture, fragrance and shelf life.

You will feel the difference – guaranteed!

The scent of neroli and fig: Mediterranean feeling for your senses
