The 244 Hand Cream Elder from L:A Bruket combines rich plant-based care with a fragrance that feels unusually light and delicate. The high-quality formula hydrates dry and stressed hands and nourishes them with conditioning lipids, absorbs quickly, and leaves skin soft and smooth without a heavy greasy film.
- Product type: Moisturizing hand cream for everyday use
- Suitable for: All skin types, especially dry and stressed hands
- Effect: Hydrates, nourishes, and helps protect the skin from drying out
- Texture: Smooth, fast-absorbing, and pleasantly lightweight on the skin
- Fragrance: Elderflower - bright, green, and floral, with fresh citrus and delicate aromatic notes
- Key active ingredients: Aloe vera, glycerin, betaine, shea butter, coconut oil & meadowfoam seed oil
- Quality: 99.2% natural origin, COSMOS-certified, vegan, and made in Sweden
Aloe vera, glycerin, and betaine intensely support the skin’s moisture balance, while shea butter, coconut oil, and meadowfoam seed oil nourish dry hands with valuable lipids and soften rough patches. The blend is rich enough to noticeably care for stressed skin, yet remains pleasantly lightweight and suitable for everyday use - ideal even after frequent handwashing.
The fragrance gives this hand cream its distinctive character. Elderflower is bright and softly floral, accompanied by fresh lemon and a green, lightly aromatic facet. Eucalyptus brings freshness and clarity, while patchouli and ylang-ylang add depth in the background. The composition nevertheless remains light and natural - not sweetly floral, but fresh, green, and finely balanced.
Elder is inspired by a familiar Swedish summer ritual: freshly picked elderflowers, steeped slowly to make elderflower lemonade. For Monica Kylén, co-founder of L:A Bruket, this fragrance evokes long summer days, serenity, and optimism. The composition captures that very carefree mood.
Key ingredients
- Aloe vera, glycerin & betaine: These three moisturizers work particularly well together: aloe vera adds moisture to the formula, while glycerin and betaine help bind water in the skin. This leaves dry, tight hands feeling softer and comfortably nourished for longer.
- Shea butter: This rich plant butter provides essential lipids and supports the skin’s natural barrier. It helps reduce moisture loss, especially for dry, rough, or frequently washed hands, leaving skin feeling softer and more supple.
- Coconut oil: Complements the replenishing care and helps smooth and soften dry skin. Together with shea butter, it forms the nourishing base of the formula.
- Meadowfoam seed oil: This particularly silky plant oil helps retain moisture in the skin and promotes a smooth, silky feel. It helps ensure that this rich care does not feel heavy on the hands.
- Elderflower extract: Complements the formula as a botanical ingredient while reflecting the signature fragrance and botanical character of the Elder line.
How to use
After washing your hands, apply a small amount to the backs of your hands, palms, fingers, and cuticles and massage in thoroughly. Use several times a day as needed.

FAQ
What does Elder smell like?
Bright, green, and floral – like elderflowers on a warm summer day. Lemon adds freshness, while eucalyptus brings a clear aromatic facet. Patchouli and ylang-ylang add some depth in the background without making the scent heavy.
Is Elder a sweet floral fragrance?
No. The floral side remains light and is balanced by green, citrus, and aromatic notes. This makes Elder feel fresh and natural, and much less sweet than many classic floral fragrances.
Is the hand cream suitable for dry hands?
Yes. Aloe vera, glycerin, and betaine help maintain moisture levels, while shea butter, coconut oil, and meadowfoam seed oil nourish dry skin with emollient lipids. The cream provides intensive care but absorbs quickly and is not overly greasy.
What makes the Elder scent special?
Its lightness. Elderflower is not interpreted as an isolated floral note, but is combined with citrus, green freshness, and subtle aromatic depth. This makes the scent feel very balanced and unusually modern.
