100% natural hand care
Used daily, exposed to wind and weather, often washed and disinfected—your hands go through a lot. It’s no wonder this often leads to dry, rough, or cracked skin, or even real fissures. Your hands, your working tools, deserve to be taken care of.
Hand care
Whether you're working around the house or in the garden, in the cold or heat, in wet or dry conditions, your hands are put to the test every day. Only with proper hand care can you maintain your skin's natural protection.
For example, frequent handwashing with soap strips your skin of its natural oils, causing it to lose its protective barrier. Your hands become dry, rough, and cracked. Nourishing and moisturizing hand creams can help prevent this.
Why our hand care products?
Why should you choose our products for your hand care?
The most important reason: They work.
The second most important reason: The ingredients. 100% natural, sustainable, without additives, without compromises. You won’t find any artificial preservatives, fragrances, or colorants in our products. No palm oil, microplastics, or paraffins. We use as many local raw materials as possible. Instead of aloe vera, shea butter, or coconut oil, we process high-quality Swiss ingredients like mountain arnica, edelweiss, and beeswax. Alpine essences, such as mountain arnica or edelweiss extracts, are made by us from plants we grow ourselves. We also collect pine resin from our own forests.

Even today, our Alpine natural cosmetics are handcrafted in our production facility in Frutigen, in the Bernese Oberland. Carefully, with great passion and attention to detail, we process many local ingredients. You are always welcome to visit us in Frutigen and watch us work.
Edelweiss hand balm
schützt und nährt deine Hände. Die hochwertigen einheimischen Zutaten spenden deiner Haut Feuchtigkeit und helfen dir
Hanf Chnübi
"Against the glacier crevices in your hands. Pardon, what? Against cracks and fissures in your skin. Oh, I see..." That’s how a first conversation about the Hemp Chnübi might sound in our shops.
Intensive, rich, and legal skincare. With Swiss organic hemp oil, pine resin, and mountain arnica, the Hemp Chnübi is excellent for treating cracks and fissures in your skin. Once removed from the package, it releases its high-quality active ingredients through friction and body heat.
By the way, "Hemp Chnübi" is a term from the local dialect in Frutigen. "Chnübi" means piece or block, referring to the shape of the Hemp Chnübi.

Hemp Chnübi If you have cracked or torn skin, the Hemp Chnübi is just the thing for you. The Hemp Chnübi is a block that you take out of the pack and apply and rub directly onto the cracks.
Vogellisi Balm For small problems on your hands. Keeps you moist and helps with small injuries on your skin. But Vogellisi Balm is actually better rubbed on your lips.
Hand disinfection Do you want to disinfect your hands? Then our hand disinfection is just right for you. It disinfects, but doesn't dry out your skin too much. We have made sure of this with natural glycerin (from rapeseed oil).
