What We Don’t Love: It does not keep your hands feeling moisturized for as long as some of the other options on this list.

that violates any law, statute, ordinance or regulation (including, but not limited to, those governing export control, consumer protection, unfair competition, anti-discrimination or false advertising); Yes. Overall, hand creams contain a higher concentration of hydrating oils or other more potent ingredients with strong moisturizing properties than body lotions, which tend to be watery.

What We Love: The citrusy aroma is clean and fresh while the skin-nourishing ingredients make the cream feel delightful. Even better, our eczema-riddled hands didn’t sting or burn with this cream, as it often can with other medicated lotions. Instead, it provided immediate relief that lasted for hours, even after washing our hands. What We Love: A little bit of this dense cream goes a long way and just one application offers enough moisture to last all day.

The blend of shea butter, coconut oil, and honey work hand in hand (pun intended) to hydrate skin, leaving a luxuriously soft texture behind. After a few uses, we could visibly see the dry patches between our fingers slowly start to heal and the white, flaky skin on top of our hands disappear. We found that we only needed to reapply once or twice a day to maintain soft skin. We also love that it’s fragrance-free and gentle enough to use on sensitive skin as well. However, the product claims to reduce the appearance of discoloration, but we didn’t see much of a difference. While body lotions work with the natural oils our bodies already create, hand lotions need to provide that moisture. Board certified dermatologist Dr. Kseniya Kobets who practices in Westchester County, New York, explains that while our bodies produce natural sebum to protect our skin from dehydration, “the palms of our hands and soles of our feet are the only places on our body that do not have sebaceous glands."

Giving you the silkiest, softest skin, Sol de Janeiro is on a mission to encourage you to celebrate and flaunt what you’ve got. That same Brazilian-inspired joy is at the forefront of every formula, transforming your body confidence and championing everything that’s unique about you.Cruelty-free, vegan, gluten-free, soy-free, paraben-free, free of artificial colorant, 5-free, 3-free, phthalate-free, paraben-free, no PEGs, talc-free, sulfate-free, mineral oil-free, no microbeads. Generally speaking, Dr. Wolinsky advises those with sensitive skin or noses to reach for fragrance-free options entirely, like the Skinfix Hand Repair Cream. What We Love: Daily use of this hand cream not only healed our current flare-up, but also prevented future ones from appearing, despite our cold climate. One of our editors, who is also a new mom and washes her hands frequently throughout the day, said that this cream left her skin feeling extremely smooth and soft (not unlike newborn baby skin).

What We Don’t Love: There is a mild scent, which didn’t bother us, but may be a factor to consider for others. We were amazed at the before and after difference in our hands, especially when it came to how soft and smooth our palms felt. Our skin looked plump and healthy, which was made more evident with each use of the product. Even in the freezing cold, a single application of this cream weathered the dry air like it was nothing. We tested this product on hands that are frequently used for competitive weightlifting — and all the friction on the palms of hands and frequent use of the ultra-drying white chalk — that come with it. NYC-based nurse practitioner, Dr. Jodi LoGerfo, cautions that people who consistently work out with weights or heavy ropes should pay extra care to their hands. “With using weights or bars, you can get calluses and skin tears. Skin that is protected with moisturizers is less likely to get damaged while working out.” Aside from the results, there’s no denying that the playful shape of the bottle and Chanel logo adds a little excitement to an otherwise routine application. On top of being a great skincare product, it acts as a bit of a self-care treat as well. This option isn’t a heavy-duty cream for serious cases of dry skin, but rather, it’s an excellent everyday, preventative lotion, and you may find yourself needing to reapply a few times each day.Just as when buying a day or night face cream, when shopping for the best hand creams, it’s important to pay close attention to the various ingredients in each product. You’ll notice that many of the mentioned products contain shea butter, which is useful as it's a natural ingredient rich in fatty acids and anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, explains Dr. LoGerfo. “Shea butter has the ability to eliminate superficial irritation and redness. Vitamin F, which is found in shea butter, can also improve the skin barrier to moisturize, and heal the dermis.” This nutty ingredient can be found in the L'OCCITANE Shea Butter Hand Cream, Benton Shea Butter and Olive Hand Cream, and Jergens Lavender Body Butter Body and Hand Lotion.
