Hey, fellow neurodivergent crowd! Are you someone who’s got sensory problems with hand creams, but who needs hand creams because dry icky winter air? I found a shop on Etsy that sells hand cream that doesn’t feel greasy or sticky, AND that sells sampler packs so you can figure out what scents aren’t going to bug you!
HappyHandsStore features handmade hand cream originally designed for people who make fiber crafts, because they don’t want greasy goopy hand cream getting on their projects. But I tell you now, it is kind of perfect for people who need something light-but-nourishing that doesn’t trip ‘icky-feel’ sensations. Margaret, the store owner, will also sub out scents from a sampler that you KNOW are bad; I got the 32-scent pack and asked her to replace a couple of the florals that would probably trip my gender bullshit, which she was totally okay with.
Current favorite scents: Soft Cotton, Shetland (milk and honey), Sugared Tea, Snow Bear (frosty mint and moss)
I’m just saying, I’m kind of in awe of this product and will likely be ordering Big Bottles to get me through the winter.
