Review done after about 10 days - This has an amazing smell and comes in a decent sized tube for hand cream. Not sure if its just me, but I felt like i needed to used a decent sized amount to cover my hands. The cream has a nice smooth texture, but the creams seems to sink very fast into the skin so you have to be fast when rubbing it in. This made me feel like sometimes I needed to use more. Hands do feel soft, would need to use longer to see any affects on my nails.

Tips: Rub it quickly and sinks fast into your skin
Boy oh boy did my hands need a treat after this year! I really liked this product, it has a really delicate scent, absorbed really easily and although I trialed it for a few day I think my nails actually grew! My hands definitely feel softer and I’m looking forward to continuing to use it.
Tips: I tended to use this at night and used quite a generous amount and left it to soak in over night, woke up with super soft mitts in the morning!
I love a good hand cream and this one is a pretty decent one. It is moisturising and has a pretty nice scent. It is no overwhelming and is quite a fresh scent. The only problem for me is that is claims to have green tea extract but it is very low in the ingredients list. It is a large tube as well Which will last a long time but also a bit heavy in the handbag.
Tips: Do not apply too generously, instead apply more frequently. Keep it at the bedside or office desk instead of in the handbag because it is quite big
Couple of things I really liked about the hand and nail cream, one that it didn’t smell overly synthetic and chemically, and two the texture. It’s thicker than some creams I’ve used before and I liked the thicker texture as it seemed to hang around and make your hands feel moisturised for longer than thinner creams which seem to evaporate. I also liked that the lid on the tube was quite secure which might seem an odd thing to comment on but I like to throw a hand moisturiser in my work bag so if my hands get dry working all day I’m aircon I have one on hand but I don’t want a container that’s going to pop open or leak. Downsides for me were the black coloured tube (harder to find in the hand bag) and it’s too early for me to make a call on whether it made any difference to my nail strength. I think this is a good, solid hand cream though and my hands definitely felt better after using it, and after use they felt soft for longer than I’ve found with other creams.
Tips: Take the time to work it in, it’s quite a thick cream so doesn’t just slosh on, also it’s good for massaging your hands with.
I love hand creams. Forever graced with dry hands, I always have a tube in my bag.
This hand cream looks sleek in a black tube. At 100mls, it's not my preferred handbag option but I like that it doesn't have a screw top lid.
The consistency is creamy and thick, but I love that it doesn't leave my hands oily. It absorbs fast without any issue and my hands feel SO SOFT after!
The smell is the only thing I'm not a major fan of. I can smell the green tea but it does also smell quite like a floral perfume. While this is great, I don't think it's necessarily needed. Worth noting that I am hypersensitive to smells so this may not be the case for your average hand cream user.
With the benefits, my hands feel instantly softer and I find that this hand cream lasts quite long. I can't speak to the health of my nails as I generally have quite strong nails anyway - also need to use this long-term over a few months to see results, I'm sure.
Overall, it's a lovely hand cream. I prefer to many others I've tried in the past that leave my hands oily or greasy. This definitely makes me want to repurchase again if it weren't priced at $23.99. In my opinion, that's too pricey for a tube of hand cream and the fact that it is only available at select places and not supermarkets.
I will continue to enjoy this until I use this up but wouldn't rush to repurchase based on these factors.
Tips: Best times to apply are right after hand-washing and before bed - a little goes a long way! I like to focus half a pea-sized blob onto my nail beds as the cream will gradually moisturise the rest of my hands as I touch things and rub my hands together.
Living in Auckland with COVID-19 my hands have been getting a thrashing from constant washing and sanitising. It’s things like this, the small things you don’t think about. So when this trial came up I was all for it. My poor hands!! They needed some loving. This year too I have been trying to get my nails back to a healthy and strong place after doing acrylics and nail stickers which I have now sworn off. So seeing this hand moisturiser doubles as a nail treatment, what more could a girl want. I love the packaging especially the tube. The Matt black colour makes it look expensive and lush. The cream has hardly any smell which I am all for as I wear perfume so I don’t want scents mixing. It massaged into the hands quite fast and didn’t leave a greasy feel. Immediately after the first use my hands felt soft. During the week I kept it handy so I could remember to use it regularly. My hands feel wonderfully soft. They don’t look much different, just the feel of them. Obviously a week isn’t long enough to see the effect on my nails, but hey it certainly isn’t harming them. My skin is very sensitive too and I did not flare up with excema or anything so it ticks that box too. The brand Revitanail has a pretty good reputation so it’s a safe bet. Yes I would buy it again as I love the hand and nail combo. Remember to keep it handy so you remember to use it regularly through the day.
Tips: I like to keep a few moisturisers around the place like handbag, bathroom and beside my bed so that I regularly moisturise my hands.
Working in an office, I always have a hand cream handy, which I use several times a day as the air conditioning seem to make my hand extra dry. I noticed straight away the moisturizing effects of the Revitanail Hand & Nail Cream, which goes into the skin quickly, and my colleagues mentioned they could smell the pleasant fragrance in the room. After using the cream for about a week, I can say my nails are definitely benefiting the most from it. They seem stronger and the cuticles are looking much healthier. Even with the frequent hand washing and disinfecting at the moment, Revitanail Hand & Nail Cream leaves a protective barrier, and keeps my hands smooth.
Tips: A smaller tube for the handbag would be great for moisturizing on the go.
I use hand cream everyday because I work with children and wash my hands constantly so as you can imagine my hands get very dry. I have a couple of hand creams that really hydrate but do nothing for my nails. I used to get gel nails a few years ago and my nails have never recovered. They’re soft, peel and break really easily and even though I use creams and occasionally oils nothing has helped until now. I was really hoping that I liked the scent of this cream as it’s a make or break for me (I’m pretty sensitive to fragrances) luckily this cream smells fresh and light. I apply it when I wake up which gives it half an hour to sink in before I shower and then again after work and before bed. It feels thick and like it’s actually absorbed really quickly. I’ve noticed the dryness around the nail has gone and although I’m still getting peeling nails they’re definitely stronger and growing so quickly. I cut my nails right back and haven’t worn any polish on them since I started this trial. They really have grown so quickly I’m shocked and really excited to see the results long term. I will absolutely purchase this again as its left my nails in a much better state than they were 2 weeks ago. I’ve already recommended this to a few workmates and although it’s not the best hand cream I’ve tried it’s the only one that has improved my nails.
You know when you finally get one of your little nubbin nails to grow but, it's all soft and it bends back on itself accidentally and you scream in agony? Well...This product actually let my nails grow without the bend and snap. My hands were noticeably less dry and scaley too. And it doesn't smell like an old man's handkerchief. It's a winner in my books!
Tips: A little bit goes a long way. A small bit at a time works best.
This hand/ nail cream has a thick, sticky consistency. Quite hygienic to use as it is a squeeze tube type with a cap. I like the black/matte packaging. It has a strong floral/powdery smell. I have dry skin on my hands. I have only used this for a week at least twice a day and I don’t really see that it has made a difference in giving me stronger nails or softer hands. Upon application, I can certainly feel the moisture on my hands but once it’s absorbed into my skin after about 20 mins , my hand just goes back to its usual feel, not softer just the same. Over the past week, I didn’t see any improvement. The floral smell lingers for a bit longer, about 30-40 mins, but only noticeable when I smell my hands.
I wouldn’t recommend this nor purchase this product.
