Inspired by the conditioning benefits of lip balm, [Hanni](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hanni-water-balm) launched a supersized balm for the body by the name of The Fatty, representing its high concentration of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. Some of the powerhouse ingredients that contribute to the omega-rich formulation of this [all-over body balm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allpurpose-beauty-balm) include cocoa seeds, coconut, carnauba seeds, chia and avocado.

This fragrance-free, [National Eczema Association](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hanni-splash-salve)-approved balm is ready to be swiped over even the most sensitive skin to provide ample hydration and care. This mess-free hydrator locks in moisture and prevents transepidermal water loss and under the surface, its hard-working ingredients help to repair and support the skin barrier.

The latest launch from Hanni, a self-proclaimed creator of "lazy bodycare for real people," resembles similarly packaged products from the brand like the solid Shave Pillow gel stick for shaving and moisturizing.
