The O’Keeffe’s Company was started over 25 years ago by a woman named Tara O’Keeffe, who developed the moisturizer for her diabetic father, who owned and manned a ranch.

Burt’s Bees has been making natural products since the 1980’s, when Burt Shavitz began tending to a beehive. He sold the honey to make a living and kept the beeswax, assuming he’d be able to use it for something, someday. That’s when Roxanne Quimby came into the picture and Burt’s Bees was officially born. The very first products they made were candles in 1984 and lip balm in 1991, and today, they’re one of the nation’s best-selling natural skin care lines.
Burt’s Ultimate Care Hand Cream is specially formulated for people who have incredibly dry hands. The main healing ingredients are baobab oil, pumpkin seed oil, and green tea extract. Reviewers claim it “works like magic” on their incredibly cracked and dry hands.
You can get this hand cream directly from the Burt’s Bees website for $12.99!
