What does The Hand Cream do?

The skin barrier is the outermost layer of the skin. A healthy skin barrier is resilient and can prevent early signs as it helps shield the skin from damages. The Hand Cream is designed as a barrier cream. It contains 5 Ceramides, 5 Peptides, Niacinamide, Marula Oil and Marula Butter rich in vitamins and essential fatty acids to replenish the outer lipid layer. This combination of ingredients helps reverse dryness, treat loss of volume and recover brittle cuticles. It brings the skin barrier into balance.

    I love both

    I bought the set although I think the Hand Retinol will probably last longer - I only use it at night. But if feels great. I even use it on my feet since I couldn’t find a foot-specific product. Hand Cream I carry in my laptop bag and use it several times a day. It’s not too greasy and makes my dry skin feel great.

    Love the Hand Duo

    I have tried so many hand lotions over the last 5 years and usually end up giving them away either because they are too greasy, don’t sink in, scent is too strong, etc. The daily hand lotion is superb, no scent which is fine, although I would love it if they made one with a soft lavender scent. The Hand Retinol - OFF the CHARTS! It goes on so smoothly, absorbs immediately and really WORKS! My hands have never looked better. Thank you Necessaire!
