Mrs. MEYER'S Basil Hand Lotion 12 oz — Non-Greasy Moisturizer with Shea & Almond Oil

Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day Basil Hand Lotion is a non-greasy, shea butter and almond oil-based moisturizer that soothes dry hands while leaving a fresh basil scent.

This 12 oz bottle blends plant-inspired ingredients and essential oils to hydrate hardworking skin without a heavy residue. Designed to layer well after Mrs. Meyer's hand soaps, the basil-scented lotion offers an herbal, uplifting aroma that feels both familiar and a little exotic. The formula is free of parabens, phthalates, and formaldehyde and carries Leaping Bunny cruelty-free certification.

How does this lotion hydrate without feeling greasy?

The formula balances lightweight emollients like almond oil with richer butters such as shea to replenish moisture without thick, oily buildup. Quickly absorbed ingredients allow skin to feel soft immediately after application, so you can return to tasks without slippery hands.

• Shea butter for long-lasting moisture
• Almond oil for fast absorption and smoothness
• Non-greasy texture for everyday use
• Designed to layer over hand soap without clumping

What does the basil scent smell like and how strong is it?

The basil fragrance is crisp and green with subtle herbal warmth—bright enough to be noticeable, yet restrained so it doesn't overpower. It leaves a fresh, garden-like aroma on skin that complements other Mrs. Meyer's products in the same scent line.

• Cool, verdant basil top notes
• Mild botanical warmth for balance
• Perfect for scent layering with matching hand soaps and candles

Can I use this lotion beyond my hands?

Yes — the formulation is versatile for use on hands, body, and even feet for extra dry spots. Apply to feet before bed and wear socks overnight to boost softening, or use as a light-body moisturizer after showering for all-over hydration.

• Suitable as a hand and body lotion
• Good for targeted dry areas like heels and elbows
• Absorbs quickly for daytime or overnight use

Mrs. Meyer's maintains cruelty-free standards and the product is Leaping Bunny certified, aligning with shoppers who prioritize ethical formulations.
