High-performance actives in routines that take just two minutes. Why you'll love it Shea Butter and Argan Oil, which hands need more than faces do Sodium Hyaluronate plumps the crepey texture that shows on hands first Squalane absorbs readily rather than leaving a greasy film Panthenol and Allantoin soothe skin worn down by washing Vitamin E adds antioxidant protection Absorbs quickly enough to use during the day Hands show age faster than the face and get a fraction of the care What it is A hand cream formulated as a treatment rather than a basic moisturizer, and the case for that is straightforward. Hands show age faster than almost anywhere else. They have thin skin, few oil glands, constant washing, constant use, and virtually no sun protection - a combination that produces crepey texture, dryness and sun damage years before the face shows the same. Yet the typical response is whatever hand cream is nearest. This one is built like a facial product. Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter and Argania Spinosa (Argan) Kernel Oil nourish, Sodium Hyaluronate plumps the crepiness, Squalane absorbs readily rather than leaving a film, and Panthenol with Allantoin soothe skin worn down by repeated washing. Key ingredients Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter A rich plant butter high in fatty acids that replenishes hands stripped by washing. Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid) A humectant that draws water into the surface, plumping the crepey texture that shows on hands first. Argania Spinosa (Argan) Kernel Oil An oil high in vitamin E, long used for dry and damaged skin. Squalane A lipid structurally close to one the skin produces naturally, absorbing readily rather than leaving a film. Panthenol & Allantoin Two soothing ingredients that calm skin worn down by repeated washing. Who it's for This hand cream is for anyone who washes their hands frequently, works with them, or has noticed crepiness and dryness that a basic hand cream has not fixed. It suits all skin types. Apply after every wash for the best result - the timing matters more than the quantity. And use a sun protection product on the backs of the hands: sun damage there is the single largest contributor to how old hands look, and almost nobody protects them. What to expect Hands feel immediately softer and comfortable, and the cream absorbs quickly enough to carry on with what you were doing. Crepiness and dryness improve within a few days of consistent use after washing. How to use Apply a small amount after washing your hands, and before bed. Massage into the backs of the hands, between the fingers and around the nails. Applying after each wash is what makes the difference - the moment when hands have just been stripped is when a cream does most good. For very dry hands, apply generously at night and wear cotton gloves.
