I just started using argan oil on my hands and it's working fabulously so far. It makes the cuticles look lovely and is great for eczema or severe dryness. Two brands I can vouch for are Beta Naturals and Josie Maran.

I wash my hands a lot and have been through many hand creams from drugstore to high end....the ones that work best for me are Glycomed (very thick) Philosophy hand creams (any scent works, its the base formula that's really good) and my favorite is Triple Lanolin Aloe Vera. You can get this at Sally's, its cheap and comes in a huge pump bottle.

How is it made? I have tried the sheep placenta creams from Australia too and they are pretty good if I remember to put them on lol

It's taken from the fat under their skin. I'm sure I use stuff that is made of the same ingredients, or worse, but i just think of it every time I use it. Works wonderfully on my face though!

I'm obsessed with hand creams, as my hands and cuticles get super dry and cracked. After trying practically every cream under the sun, I have to say the Chanel Body Excellence Hand Cream is no joke! It's super light weight and feels and smells so yummy. It's pricey but worth it as I only need a tiny bit for both hands.

Another tip I've recently discovered for all those ladies (or gents) who have the Clarisonic. At night when I'm washing my face I use it on the back of my hands for a quick 30 seconds each, followed by the lotion and it works wonders for the appearance of my hands.

I've started to notice more lines on my hands since I got married and significantly increased the amount of dishwashing~ :yucky:

Now I get my DH to do the dishes or stick them in the washer but my hands... need some serious repairing.

I can't STAND the sticky and oily feeling of thick hand creams. Anyone have suggestions to any hand cream that is enriching(maybe anti-wrikles, v-C, etc) but not greasy?


thanks~

Chanel's Hand Cream is amazing and is not sticky or greasy, feels like a veil. Deborah Lippman's 'Rich Girl' is a good cheaper alternative. As far as keeping your hands looking young, exfoliating them regularly helps. As I posted before, using my Clarisonic on the backs of my hands each night has made them look significantly better.

One thing I found works the best is the hand gloves that are lined in a gel type inside that goes against your skin. I can use any hand cream and the gloves and in one night my hands look better then a month of hand cream. I usually buy my gloves on ebay or online at a beauty supply store.

L'occitane shea butter has been the best for me. I have eczema/very dry skin and this is the only stuff that has helped. At night, sometimes I'll use aquaphor.

I use a combination of Burts Bees cuticle cream and La Roche Posay Lipikar hand cream. The cream isn't the most moisturizing, but it dries quickly and it's made for people with eczema-when I get the occasional flare up on my hand it really soothes it. But I need the cuticle cream to give the driest parts of my hands a bit more moisture.
