My hands are overjoyed that this cream arrived when it did- they've been crying out for some love and care since winter set in and we've all been washing them like mad!
This hand cream does exactly what it says it will. It soothes, protects, and restores the skin on your hands and keeps working the more regularly you apply it.
My knuckles were looking really rough before I started using the tube, red and cracked and sore. Thankfully, it was only a day or two before they started to look like new again.
One of my favourite parts of this product, and my usual bug bear with other hand creams, is that it doesn't leave that sticky, greasy feeling behind. I was able just to rub a small amount in and move on with my day as usual- just the way it should be!
Buy a tube of this for your handbag, your car, your desk at work, and beside your kitchen sink. It'll be your hands' saving grace this winter!
I love this Cicaplast mains La Roche-Posay hand cream. I currently have three tubes on the go. I’ve been using it in conjunction with La Roche Posay cicaplast baume b5 because my hands had cracked due to all the extra washing and sanitising. This cream is gentle and works well enough on its own, but the baume really steps it up a notch. My kids have been using it too. My daughter gets eczema and my son doesn’t but even his hands were so dry and flaky and cracked from the extra cleansing. Now after two weeks, all of our hands are healed and soft and smooth. No more tears at bedtime from sore hands from using other creams! It is more ointment like than cream, absorbs rapidly so it’s not greasy. It is soothing and provides a barrier to the skin. Highly recommend, and chemist warehouse frequently have this on sale for around $10, as well as the cicaplast baume. So they’re economical too!
Tips: Combine with cicaplast baume b5 repair cream for extra dry, cracked hands for intense repairing action. Apply cicaplast mains after hand washing and before going out into the cold, or regularly throughout the day. Use any excess on you dry lips! Use it on heels, elbows, knees, anywhere that’s a bit dry!
