A rose-scented hydrating jelly for cracked hands and dry elbows, a French pharmacy classic that has barely changed in a century.

Féret Parfumeur makes Hyalomiel in France, from formula to packaging, a light gel with honey extract and glycerin that sinks in faster than its texture suggests. Smooth a little onto hands, feet and elbows and massage until absorbed.

For the friend with a small, considered travel kit. For the host who keeps good things in the guest bath. A stocking gift that stays in rotation, or for you, all winter.
