Hanni impresses in reviews for making body care feel effortless and effective—its Splash Salve, Water Balm, Cocoon Cleanse, and Shave Pillow earn praise for deep hydration, elegant scents, and easy application, while the weighted safety razor delivers a close shave with less irritation. Reviews also flag drawbacks: inconsistent moisturization for very dry skin, strong or polarizing fragrance, heavy or greasy feel for Splash Salve, tricky razor learning curve with clogging and nicks, and packaging/application quirks.

  • Really like the water balm. Super hydrating but not sticky or greasy. I would say the fragrance leans feminine. I would prefer an unscented or more masculine leaning scent, but thats a personal preference and should detract from the effectiveness.

  • I really wanted to love the hydrating spray since I really dislike applying lotion, unfortunately it didn't perform as well as advertised. I love the smell, but in terms of hydration, it's not as efficient as lotion. I don't even have dry skin and live in a pretty humid climate. Packaging is nice.

  • The water balm is amazing. Amazing packaging experience, amazing customer care/communication from their team when the package was slower to ship, and most importantly of all: it works really well. Loving the scent and the methodology here and really great for summer! This was my first hanni purchase and I will definitely be trying other stuff in the future, I felt like this was a really thoughtful product experience.

  • I tried the water balm from hanni and think it's great for summer! The scene is DIVINE, I want to smell like this allll the time. It smells like the Tiktok clean girl aesthetic - total "it girl" vibes. I put an extra spritz or two just for the scent alone. I have dry, eczema prone skin and usually have to slather on super think lotion, especially after a shower or shaving. Since it's summer right now, the water balm does the job, but I'm not sure if it'll be enough for the winter months. hanni claims the water balm doesn't leave any sticky residue, which is true. The spray absorbs into your skin in less than five minutes. If I had to get super nit picky, I think the bottle is a bit hard to hold when it's wet after a steamy shower. I need to hold it with two hands to spray it. It's a sturdy bottle and I've got small hands, so maybe that's just a me problem. I don't know if it'll replace my regular lotion, but I feel super fancy when using it. Would love a travel size one day!

  • The Hanni Splash Salve is SO GOOD. I hate putting on lotion after I shower since it’s (A) cold and (B) I hate feeling greasy. The splash salve allows me to hydrate my skin while showering and wash away that greasy, oily feeling. You do have to use a little more product to get coverage, but it’s still a good product-to-price ratio. Their shower scarf I’m 50/50 on, because while it does exfoliate your skin wonderfully, it leaves my skin feeling raw.

  • great product after the first use works wonders to your skin turns out smooth and super soft.

  • Switched to a weighted razor from Hanni and I don't plan on going back. A much smoother/closer shave and, after the initial buy-in, waaaaay cheaper than drugstore razors and razor blades. Single razor blades also really cut down on razor burns and ingrown hairs for me personally. I do find myself having to shave a little more often, but the overall increased comfort and affordability is worth it. I use the shave pillow too and it also works super well - makes it easy to shave in and out of the shower.

  • I got the water balm with a thing drop discount so it was a bit more worth the price, but I ended up falling in love with it! it is perfect for my boyfriend who doesn't like sticky/greasy residue for lotion, but still need that hydration for his eczema skin. Would recommend to give as a gift to anyone who may not be a fan of lotions + oils! Also great for folks with disabilities/mobility issues that they can spray all over for a typical lotion routine feel.

  • We tried out the Water Balm and it was delightful. High quality, soothing and impressive. We're eager to try more from their line.

  • Wow I am so thankful this was a part of a Thingdrop! I never would have purchased this on my own, but I'll probably buy it again once I run out! I hate putting on lotion and the Hanni water balm smells amazing and is SUPER fast to apply. The bottle is very nice and I'll reuse it after I run out of water balm.

  • Ooh-la-la! I tried the Splash Salve, and loved it! It feels silky and light on my skin, and I love how I can use it at the end of a shower. It left my skin soft and moisturized, with a lovely, delicate scent that wasn't overpowering at all. It's a little pricey to be considered for my everyday routine... but for a treat/at home spa day, I'll definitely be reaching for this!

  • ✨💧🛀🏾💦 Hanni Water Balm 💦🛀🏾💧✨ For dry, eczema-prone skin this would be the equivalent of rubbing plain water into the skin. It had zero moisturizing effect so the only positive was it's convenance factor? I would basically use it as a hand "cream" by my bed side table, but i still didn't think it was hydrating enough even for that.

  • Great product! Really love it for the warm weather in New York and Miami. The only reason I knocked off 1 star is due to when I apply it at night - my legs feel rubbery? Like they feel like they have a layer of something on them and it doesn't feel smooth. Other than that: the packaging, smell, level of hydration, etc is really great. I would recommend this to anyone who is too lazy to use lotion.

  • Love this product. I am really into the idea of a spray on moisturizer (feels less messy and more efficient to me) and I found the smell really nice and not overpowering. Also love the glass bottle; any time beauty products are not sold in purely plastic I am excited.

  • I really like the mission of Hanni's products as I'm someone who doesn't love putting on lotion after a shower and feeling all sticky. I really enjoy using the Splash Salve as it makes it easy to moisturize my skin in the shower without feeling sticky after. I really like the Shave Pillow stick when I'm shaving - it leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated. Plus it lasts forever! I have not yet tried the Water Balm. I also love the smell of Hanni and find it so relaxing yet not overwhelming.

  • I purchased the Hanni shower moisturizer since I heard that your skin absorbs the most moisture when damp. I find it easy to apply after gently towel drying and appreciate the large jar. I don't really feel anymore moisturized than I would if I used regular moisturizer after showering, but still feel like it is effective.

  • Love they Fatty stick for convenience but wish it was more moisturizing.

  • I really like the hanni shave set products I have tried so far. The weighted razor uses a single blade and has a good weight to it that makes it easier to shave and the stand makes it easy to keep upright on a shower ledge. You do have to be very careful because it's single blade, especially when changing the blade. I like that they provide a case for disposing the blades when you're done. Their shave pillow is great and is really convenient for travel as well.

  • This is unlike any product I’ve ever tried, and I was skeptical about it. I am always dealing with dry skin, so I was excited to give it a try. I really liked it! After a couple weeks of use, I feel like my skin is better hydrated. There isn’t any film and residue on my skin. I’m a fan!
