Scent notes+
A light, fresh coconut scent - subtle, clean and never overpowering.
Why It Works+
Regular hand creams just add moisture, which is the last thing sweaty hands asked for. Tapioca starch absorbs sweat as it shows up while the botanical butters keep skin soft. Best of both, minus the slip 'n' slide.

Hand Hero Q's
Does Hand Hero actually stop sweaty palms?
It doesn't block your sweat glands like an antiperspirant (no aluminium here). Instead, tapioca starch absorbs sweat as it appears, keeping hands dry to the touch. Sweat happens, it just doesn't hang around.
Won't a moisturiser make my hands more slippery?
Not this one. Hand Hero is a dry-touch hand cream, so it hydrates with Kakadu plum and shea butter, then dries to a soft, powdery finish. Zero grease, zero slip 'n' slide.
How often should I apply it?
Apply when you need dry hands: before meetings, gym sessions, dates or anything involving a handshake. One application keeps palms dry for hours. A little goes a long way here, so start small. Too much and you'll get a white residue (enthusiasm noted, but pea-sized is plenty).
Can I use it on more than my hands?
Absolutely. Hand Hero works anywhere sweat pools: underboob, back of neck, feet, behind the knees. One tin, many talents.
Why is my Hand Hero runny?
Totally normal. Our plant-powered formula skips the synthetic thickeners, so it can soften and loosen up in warm weather. Two tips: always open the tin right way up (learn from those before you), and store it somewhere cool. We know the current tin isn't the perfect match for the formula, so new packaging is on the way. Watch this space.
