Are your hands dry and cracked this winter? It seems like no amount of lotion will solve the problem, but maybe we just need the right lotion. You’re in luck! Gardenerd has partnered with the strong women over at Womanswork to offer this winter hand therapy giveaway.
We gardeners understand the demands of working with our hands, and we demand in return something that works for us. Womanswork Lavender Mint Shea Butter Hand Cream is designed by gardeners, for gardeners, and they’ve offered to give one away to lucky Gardenerd reader.
Here’s what Womanswork has to say about their hand cream:
“Lavender essential oil with a touch of peppermint essential oil gives our exclusive formula a rich but mild fragrance. Our master herbalist mixes fair trade shea butter and sunflower oil for a silky smooth, non-greasy cream. Massage it into your hands after a day in the garden or wear it under your garden gloves to soften hands while you work. Rich in Vitamins A and E. Compare our ingredients to other brands.“
Did someone mention garden gloves? Oh, this giveaway it’s over yet. Not only will you get the hand cream, but you’ll get a pair of Womanswork Lavender Nitrile Garden Gloves too!
Nitrile gloves are perfect for close work in the garden. The elastic wrist keeps dirt from finding its way inside, and the breathable fabric is washable too. More on this great glove:
“These ultra light, form fitting gloves are designed for maximum grip and finger feel for nitty gritty detail work. They’re “dipped” in nitrile (a non-latex rubber) and are machine washable. Lavender Purple with the Womanswork logo. Available in sizes Small, Medium and Large.”
So, to enter this giveaway, leave a comment below with your glove size and tell us why you need these products. A winner will be chosen at random from all posts on Wednesday, February 5th and announced in our next Weekly Update. Good luck!
As a nurse, I constantly have to was my hands. The harsh soaps & dry winter air chap & crack my hands. I would love try your product & gloves to see if they are the relief I need. Thank you.
Thank you to everyone who entered the giveaway. Our winner (randomly selected) is Mary, with her natural wildlife refuge.
This is so cool! I would love to have the hand cream and a small pair of gloves would go a long way towards getting Spring to sprung! 😀 Looking forward to flowers and a garden this year. Thanks for this fun and much appreciated give-away.
I love nitrile gloves (size-medium)! I usually don’t put stuff on my hands because I’m out in the garden, but it definitely would be nice to take the time to treat my hands!
Tripple whammy- work at Childrens Hospital washing hands every few minutes, using sanitizer in between that, work in the dirt volunteering at school/community gardens, do garden at home- front and back sharing my harvest with neighbors and local food bank. Hands in sad sad shape. Size medium and lavender salve would be lovely.
I could use new gloves for gardening (size large) but I thought of my sister for the lotion. She is a caregiver at a hospital and washes her hands a 100 times a day. Her poor hands need some pampering with Shea Butter and Lavendar.
awesome giveaway, love the gloves and would love to try the lotion for these dry hands of mine, thanks!
I’ve gotta get a pair of my own nitrite gloves in large — I keep taking my husbands!!
Well, since I have contact dermatitus, gardening can be a chore without good gloves. And cracked, dry hands are a given at my age. Medium would be wonderul! My garden is in the middle of a ‘Natural Wildlife Refuge’ in the yard of my house. I love growing food, in addition to plants that attract bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and other wildlife. In the middle of an urban city!!!!
Gardening has been a great excuse to play in the dirt. Would be great to have lotion for my dry skin and a pair of gloves to protect my hands from stinging nettles.
I would love to have gloves that fit – size small. Every gardener needs the hand cream. Gardening even with gloves is hard on hands and a great hand cream is
a necessity (especially if you are a knitter like me.)
Gardeners Hands could Really use some lotion and Size M gloves!
I am a garden consultant who really needs some great smelling lavender lotion for my hands that are busy making gardens for clients and miniature gardens for garden club lectures for the Westlake Village Garden Club. I used to garden at the local schools for my kid’s classroom gardens for their Science classes. I am busy working in my own garden and I could use a pair of green Large gloves and some hand cream to have some aromatherapy with the lavender lotion after working in the garden all day. Gardening grows the spirit! Garden On!
Those gloves look wonderful. Not only will they protect my hands from the calluses, they will shield the sun from my “sun-spot-prone” skin. The fact that they have easy-gripping is sure a plus. Wearing gloves through hours of gardening can be a sweaty business. Love the “breathable” feature. I need a size small. I hadn’t thought of wearing lotion in the gloves…a great idea. Lavender is my favorite scent and I enjoy the tingling of the mint on my skin. Can’t wait to try it. Thank you so much for the recommendation.

Oops! Small please.
Love these products, love lavender! Perfect combinaton for dry winter hands. Thanks for the giveaway!
I think it would be good for me to wear these gloves so I don’t always walk around with dirt under my fingernails. 🙂 I think a size small (or small/medium) would be perfect.
Always looking for great hand cream, so would love to try the Womanswork product. Maybe it’s the ONE. Also would be great to have gloves that fit, I usually just wear mens work gloves. Size large please!
Thanks Christy, love reading your blog, esp about your chickens! More chicken stories please!
size Large- love my 4-H gardening clubs. We will definitely put these to use
Hello, I would LOVE to try this hand cream! My hands are so dry that I’m embarrassed to show them! They need relief! I love the gloves! I think size small would be perfect. Thank you!
I’d live to have a medium pair of these to play in my http://www.. Often my 1 year old and 3 year old boys are playing in the yard while I garden and they frequently need my attention or help with something. To have a pair of gloves with maximum grip and finger feel would be great for transitioning between planting my veggies and helping my son ride his bike or throw a ball. I won’t have to keep removing the gloves every time I’m needed.
