A cream-balm with a dense texture works a little differently from a light cream, and a few practical details really do matter.
- Apply to slightly damp skin. After washing your hands, don't dry them completely — apply the cream while there are still drops of water on the skin. The urea and glycerin in the composition hold moisture better when it is already on the surface rather than “looking” for it in the air.
- Pay attention to problem areas. Rough patches at the base of the nails, areas around the joints and the fingertips usually need a little more product. Rub in with circular movements until you feel a slight warmth — this helps the components penetrate deeper.
- For night use, apply a thicker layer and put on thin cotton gloves. Over several hours without contact with water and air the components work more intensively — this is standard practice for very dry hand skin.
- Before going outdoors, apply 10–15 minutes beforehand so the cream has time to absorb partially. The layer of glycerin, silicones and oils creates an additional barrier between the skin and cold air.
The tube volume — 45 ml — conveniently fits in a bag or on a desk, which makes regular use through the day easier. Regularity matters more here than a single generous application: the skin needs time to restore its lipid layer.
