My hands need a good hand cream!

Published

Can anyone recommend a good hand cream? With the constant washing of hands whilst on duty, my hands are getting red and almost to the point of bleeding across the knuckles.

I'm a huge fan of the body shop's hemp oil cream- it's great and it feels nice to use.

it's 100% natural shea butter! Sticks on like glue and lasts a long time. Some natural chemist shops have it, but it is usually much cheaper to buy it off the internet somewhere.

Haven't used any of the above but have used a wonderful product called Hand Shield by Jungle Brolly, http://www.junglebrolly.com/us/nurses.html

you can get it in most pharmacies. Fantastic barrier cream that lasts over 4 hours even with repeated hand washing, as it's the water and soaps that dry our hands, it has Aloe Vera, Jojoba etc in it. I keep the small size in my handbag 30ml but you can by the bigger pump bottles which would last you a good 5-6 months. give it a go, it's worked for me....P.S it's not sticky either!
