Hand and Body Cream with Blueberry Extract and Oat Milk, 75 ml - Shik Nectar Yogurt Touch

According to the product information, SHIK NECTAR hand and body cream suits all skin types. However, it contains perfume components, so if your skin is easily irritated or you have reacted to fragranced cosmetics before, test it on a small area first — for example, the inside of your forearm — and wait 24 hours to see if any redness, itching or stinging appears. This is a general precaution rather than a reflection on the product itself.When you first start using it, apply a thin layer to hands after washing and observe how your skin responds. If it feels comfortable, you can continue. For the body, the same logic applies: try it on a limited area such as one shin or one elbow before using it all over. If the skin is already irritated, chapped or broken, be more cautious: the fragrance may cause a stinging sensation, and it is better to choose application based on your own tolerance. For persistent skin problems, consult a dermatologist; this product is a cosmetic for comfort and care, not a treatment.Because the formula contains glycerin, panthenol and allantoin, it is designed to add moisture and smooth the surface. But individual reactions vary, and the presence of fragrance means it is not guaranteed to be non-irritating for everyone. If you prefer completely fragrance-free skincare, this particular cream may not be the best first choice, even if a patch test is fine. Also, note that the product is intended for hands and body, not for the face, where skin is often more reactive.If you have a medical skin condition, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are under dermatological care, it is reasonable to ask your specialist before introducing a new fragranced cosmetic.

The product name and the description clearly position SHIK NECTAR as a hand and body cream, not a facial cream. While the ingredients — glycerin, panthenol, allantoin, blueberry extract and oat milk — are all common in skincare and generally considered gentle, the presence of fragrance is an important difference. Facial skin is thinner and often more reactive than the skin on the hands or body, so a fragranced hand cream applied to the face is more likely to cause stinging or irritation, especially around the eyes and on the cheeks.If you are looking for a face moisturiser, it is safer to choose a product explicitly labelled for facial use, ideally fragrance-free. Using a hand and body cream on the face occasionally might not cause a problem for everyone, but it is not the intended use. For that reason, the practical advice is to reserve this cream for hands, elbows, shins and other body areas, and use a separate dedicated facial moisturiser if your routine calls for one.If you have very dry, flaky skin on the face, remember that a cosmetic cannot treat underlying conditions. If facial dryness is persistent, painful or accompanied by redness, consult a doctor or dermatologist.

There is no fixed schedule for this type of moisturising cream. The main signal is how your skin feels: use it when it starts to feel dry, rough, tight or less flexible. The product description suggests three practical moments: keeping it by the sink to apply after hand washing, putting it on shins or elbows after a bath or shower, and using it any time the skin feels less comfortable.If you wash your hands often, your skin loses moisture with each wash because water and soap strip natural oils. Applying a small amount right after drying your hands helps lock in the remaining moisture and reduces that pulled, dry feeling. The same principle applies after bathing — the skin is damp, which is a good time to apply a cream because it traps the water in the upper skin layer.How much to use depends on the area. For hands, a small amount about the size of a pea to a 1-cent coin is enough for both hands; if it still feels tight, you can add a little more. For larger body areas like the shins or arms, use a slightly larger amount and spread it evenly until absorbed. The texture is meant to feel nourishing rather than heavy, so a thin layer is usually sufficient. If the cream feels too rich on your hands during the day, you can apply a smaller amount or focus it on the dry parts and rub it in well.In winter or in heated rooms, indoor air is drier, so you may need to apply more frequently. In humid summer conditions, your skin may not need it as often. Listen to your skin rather than following a rigid routine. Consistent use when needed is what makes the skin surface feel smoother.If you are applying after showering, pat the skin slightly dry rather than rubbing it fully dry, then apply the cream while the skin is still a little damp. This is a simple way to get more benefit from any moisturiser.
