Very Hardworkers Handcreme


$28.15 NZD
Approx $16.74 USD

Product Code: M025


Our Very Hardworkers Handcreme is a powerful, intensive balm designed for those who need more than just an everyday hand cream. Unlike lighter creams, this thick, rich formula is specially developed to repair and protect very dry, rough, and damaged skin.

It works wonders not only on hands, but also on cuticles, elbows, knees, and cracked heels. Say goodbye to dryness, roughness, and discomfort—this formula is guaranteed to deliver results.

Originally formulated for Chas, whose hands were badly damaged, cracked, and bleeding from caring for our beehives. Standard creams were not working so we developed a really effective balm type cream that really works.

See the difference for yourself in the images of David’s hands—before treatment and just two weeks after using Very Hardworkers Handcreme.

Long-lasting relief – A little goes a long way, giving hours of protection and comfort.  Guaranteed to work.

Thirty-two years of repairing hard-working hands.

Key Benefits

  • Improves skin health

  • Dry, dehydrated skin

  • Relieve dry, rough & flaky skin.

Hero Ingredients

  • Beeswax

    Beeswax

    Beeswax benefits the skin by creating a protective, breathable barrier that locks in moisture, which can help soften the skin and aid in the healing of minor wounds. It also contains antioxidants and has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties that can soothe irritation, combat acne, and reduce signs of aging by improving skin elasticity and hydration. 

    Beeswax creates a natural, protective layer on the skin that shields it from environmental pollutants and harsh weather, while allowing the skin to breathe. 

    Regular use can lead to plumper skin with improved elasticity, helping to diminish the appearance of stretch marks and scars. 

  • Sweet Almond Oil

    Sweet Almond Oil

    Sweet almond oil moisturises and protects the skin, helping to alleviate conditions like eczema, and can also soothe dryness. It contains vitamins and fatty acids that strengthen the skin barrier, reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks, and act as a makeup remover. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties also help fight premature aging and skin damage. 

    Sweet almond oil is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids and vitamins A and E, which deeply hydrate the skin, prevent dryness, and improve its texture and tone. 

    It helps soothe dry, flaky skin and is used in the treatment of skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. 

  • Mānuka Honey

    Mānuka Honey

    Leptospermum scoparium (Mānuka) Honey 

    Mānuka honey benefits the skin by acting as a natural humectant that hydrates and softens the skin, while its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties help alleviate acne and soothe irritation. It also contains antioxidants that protect against premature aging and can support collagen production, leading to a more glowing, youthful complexion. 

    Hydration and softening.   Mānuka honey acts as a natural humectant, attracting and retaining moisture to keep the skin hydrated, soft, and supple.

    Forms a protective barrier: It helps the skin retain moisture and can improve dryness and leave your complexion feeling radiant. 

    Acne and blemish control: Its high concentration of antibacterial compounds helps prevent acne-causing bacteria and can be used as a spot treatment for blemishes.

    Mānuka honey calms irritation and reduces redness associated with acne and other inflammatory skin conditions. 

    Rich in antioxidants;  Mānuka honey contains antioxidants that help protect the skin from free radicals, which can cause premature aging.

    Promotes collagen production: It helps support collagen production, which is vital for maintaining skin firmness and elasticity.

    Exfoliates and brightens: By gently exfoliating dead skin cells and unclogging pores, it can reveal a smoother, more transparent, and more luminous complexion.

Great non greasy hand cream - I have been using Apicare Very Hardworkers Handcreme for a number of years. It's wonderful, it's non-greasy and soothes my dry, burning and often itchy skin. I recommend it to all my family and friends.

I have used many creams over the years to help my dry skin, caused by gardening and dairy farming, and this is the best. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

My hands work very hard. I have a busy workshop creating metal beads and my poor hands get quite a hammering. This cream is wonderful, restorative

Suzi -:

This is my 3rd purchase of this handcreme over the last 6 months. I suffer from very dry hands and find this is a life saver for my hands. It lasts a long time and you only need a little at a time.

Mrs J:

I have been nursing for 27 years in areas that involve scrubs and frequent hand washing, e.g. midwifery, neo natal intensive care, urodynamics (my record is 16 scrubs in one day) and now orthopaedic surgery. As a result of using handwash solutions the skin on my hands had become constantly painful. I was very conscious of their appearance. In desperation a week ago I went to my local pharmacy.The Very Hardworkers Handcreme sounded like me so I bought it and have using it about four times a day. I cannot believe how much better they look! Better still they are no longer painful. I also think my skin is looking less fragile and thin. They are actually healing! I am now singing its praises to my colleagues. Thank you for such an excellent product,
Mrs. J. W., Christchurch

My wife really rates this A1 - She finds this much kinder to her skin, as many other creams have caused reactions.

Geraldine H:

Now on repeat delivery - Discovered this cream when I was in New Zealand. I have very dry skin and this works better than any of the other creams I have been prescribed. Delighted to have found a source in the U.K.

This is the only hand cream I will use now. I actually use it on my feet too (after a day in gumboots) !! So my feet now look good in summer shoes.

It Works! - If you have dry, dry skin - then this is for you. A little goes a long way. I work it in at night. Was given it originally as a present. Wouldn't be without it, especially if you are an outdoorsy type.

Brilliant Product - It's a brilliant hand cream, in fact, it does just what it says, and it's been a godsend for my very dry skin.

Sue H:

I have Hashimoto's Hypothyroidism, and it causes the skin on my hands and feet to be extremely dry and scaly. I have tried many different creams, but I swear none has ever been as effective as this cream. I rub it into my hands at bedtime, and there was a significant improvement the next morning. I recommend this product highly.

Carolyn M:

This is the best hand cream that I have ever used.

Jason W:

This is an excellent, thick, long-lasting cream. I have suffered from eczema since childhood and have gone through a lot of prescription and over-the-counter brands of cream in that time, but this is by far the best and keeps my hands moist and soothed. Most of the other brands I have used contain chemicals that irritate or sting, but not this one. Highly recommend this cream, worth every penny.

Don't delay - BUY
Anyone looking for a quality hand cream? You've found it, this cream is amazing, it does what it says on the box. It's not greasy or sticky and has a pleasant smell. In fact all Apicare products I have tried are exceptional. Truly great products.

Wendy J:

Such a small amount needed, which makes it a very good value, will last for ages.
Gorgeous smell and consistency. So comforting on sore skin. My hands and feet have never been so soft.
