Neutrogena Hand Cream Review

Believe it or not it's my holy grail foot cream. I use this on my feet everytime they turned super dry. A few tiny dab of it works wonder. I find it's way too greasy on my hands so I don't use it as a hand cream.

I love their foot cream version of this too. Seriously my favourite hand cream, actually makes a difference in the moisture levels of your skin, has no scent so perfect for sensitive skin. It is quite greasy though so I only use at night before bed :)

This is the best handcream team ever. I try others and always return to this. Plus, it’s a bargain when on special at New World.

The tube is handbag friendly, it’s a nice thick consistency that really moisturises and protects, smells great and can be used on other dry patches of requires!

You only need to use a small amount, this is perfect to use before bed to wake up with lovely soft hands!!

This is a cream I always return to, because there's nothing quite as effective for soothing and hydrating my super-dry hands. Even when my skin's at its worst (red, cracked, itchy, sore), this stuff does the business.

The small tube is really convenient for the car or handbag or whatever, and you can get the fragranced version (which I think's lovely - not overpowering, but very pleasant) or the unfragranced. The consistency is pretty thick, and I hate the feeling of greasy thick cream on my skin, but the trick about this one is that you use just a tiny amount - I mean really, really tiny. It still feels quite heavy when you apply it, but give it a few minutes and it melts in and utterly transforms your skin. It's like a miracle product for me.

I recommend it to everyone. It's a great-value product that lasts for ages because you use such a small amount each time, and it actually does exactly what it says.

I found this formula to be very thick so using a little went a long way. However I did not like how difficult it was to distribute through my hands. I felt that it did not absorb fast enough and left my hands feeling greasy for quite awhile after I had applied it.

So I decided to use it on just my cuticles instead as they were very dry, and it worked pretty well and kept them moisturised. Also, I wasn't too fond of the smell.

Overall, I personally would not re-purchase it.

I bought a mini (14g) tube of this hand cream from Countdown the other day, thinking that it would be great to keep in my handbag for when I'm out and about and my hands feel really dry. I used some the other night, as I was curious and wanted to see if it would be worth stashing in my bag. Needless to say, I'll be putting this next to my bed and using it before bed only!

I was very disappointed. I was expecting a thick, rich hand lotion rather than something that resembled vaseline! The clear gel-like cream is easily squeezed out the tube and a small pea-sized amount is sufficient to moisturise both hands (and elbows). When I rubbed my hands together, the clear gel turned into a white cream that was quickly absorbed into the skin leaving a matte, almost silicone-like feel, which wasn't bad. But then the clammy hands began. I have bad circulation and very cold hands most of the time and this cream made my palms sweat which left them feeling clammy and the almost pleasant matte silicone-like feel of the cream instantly turned sticky. Ugh!

The scent of the cream is not bad and the cream really does help alleviate dry skin but the clamminess and stickiness is enough to put me off. I definitely won't be putting a tube of this in my handbag or travel bag and will rather use this at night only, right before I climb into bed so that I don't have to worry about having clammy sticky hands.

I often am found doing yard work or on the farm and with that comes callused hands and dry flaky skin. I like to wear nail polish and the look of callused hands just makes the nail polish look less gorgeous than they should. This is when I found the Neutrogena Hand Cream in my local Warehouse.

I am not overly fussed on the design but the fact that it is Neutrogena goes a long way for me. Neutrogena has always been one of my fave skin care brands so it only seemed right that I follow suit with the hand cream. I paid a mere $7.95 and for hand cream I found that very reasonable.

I love the fact that the tubes lid is upside down so it means that the product is always at the opening ready to be squeezed out without effort. I squirt a pea sized bit of cream on to my hand and rub it in concentrating on the driest areas of my hands. The smell is quite pleasant without being overpowering. I noticed that after five days of continuous use that my hands felt alot softer and hydrated than before I started using it. I can now touch my arctic sheets when making the bed without screwing my face up at the scratchy feeling when I run my hands over it. I am hooked!
