At the ranch, we work hard, and so do our hands. Sometimes they take a terrible beating. In 1999, one of our customers mentioned that she makes soaps and lotions, and we tried them.  We found that Hummingbird's Honey Oatmeal Gardener's Hand Scrub gently cleans away the toughest grime without adding to the abuse that our hands take.

When we started using their Full Moon Hand Cream as well, it didn't take long for our hands to look and feel better than they have in years.  We love Hummingbird's products and recommend them highly, especially these two that work as hard for our hands as our hands work for us.

"Hummingbird's Tender Touch Lotion for Dry and Compromised Skin came in my life quite by accident. In the spring of 2000, I was having a terrible outbreak of eczema on my hands. I was steering away from cortisone ointments and couldn't find a hand cream that didn't sting and burn my raw skin.

I was at the local grower's market when I encountered Hummingbird's display. Skeptical, but desperate, I agreed to try a small portion on my angry hands. The hand cream was so soothing that I bought a jar. I put it on every moment my skin felt itchy and dry for the next three days. To my surprise and delight, my eczema cleared, and I was able to resume household chores and gardening. I use Hummingbird's Tender Touch Cream daily. I would say that if the cream isn't a miracle cream, it's a working cream. I am very fortunate to have found this skin product."

On the Honey Oatmeal Gardner's Hand scrub:

"Having a bar of soap that doesn't slip and slide in your hands is a pleasure. It lasts 3 months, sometimes longer. The oatmeal really cleans the deep dirt and grime I get from carpentry, gardening, and mechanic work. The smell is good. The cuts and scratches in my hands heal quickly from the emu oil and from the medicinal qualities of the essential oils used. The honey leaves a nice layer on my skin for protection."

"Hummingbird facial cream is by far the best I have ever used. I am in my senior years, live in a high desert climate with lots of sun and wind, and I have never had such great product to put on my skin. I've been using it for about a year now and hope to continue for a very long time. Even had my dental hygienist ask me what I was doing to my skin as it was so improved! Can't beat that!"

Lona,

What an amazing difference I've experienced since Janice gave me the sample of your Tender Touch Lotion to try! Thank you.

My feet are touchable! Your cream inspired me to use the pumice stones I've had for years, and to buy a good file- and to have a regimen that works. At last! Your Tender Touch Lotion is a real blessing.

Janice let me know that you nursed in India, so you must know what my feet looked like after 30 years of going barefoot.  I am delighted!
