Use the cream on clean, dry skin and massage in a small amount until it spreads evenly. The product is described as easy to spread and suitable for body areas that need extra comfort, especially after washing or exposure to harsh weather. For hands, apply it after washing when the skin feels tight; for elbows or dry patches, use enough to leave the area feeling lightly coated but not overloaded.
Before going outdoors in cold air, apply it a little in advance so the emollient layer has time to settle on the skin. The mineral oil and fatty alcohols in the formula help create a soft protective film, which can be useful in colder months when skin loses moisture more easily. If you are using it during the day, reapply when the skin has been washed, rubbed with a towel or feels dry again.
Avoid applying it to broken skin, mucous membranes or the eye area, as this is a body cream for external use only. If you are layering it with other body care products, apply lighter water-based products first and this cream afterwards, because its protective texture is intended to help reduce moisture loss from the surface.
