Is the cream suitable if the skin on your hands is very sensitive or prone to irritation? — Home Doctor Silicone Hand Cream 42ml

The cream contains beeswax and silicone — both are widely used in cosmetics and are generally well tolerated. However, sensitive skin may react not only to active substances but also to fragrance or other auxiliary ingredients in the formula. So if your skin is prone to irritation or allergic reactions, first apply a small amount of the cream to a limited area of skin — for example, the inside of the elbow or the wrist — and wait a few hours.

The cream should not be used in the case of individual intolerance to beeswax, fragrance or other ingredients. It forms a denser barrier than light moisturising formulas — which is exactly what makes it useful when handling household chemicals, but this texture is not always suitable for very sensitive skin.

If you have chronic skin conditions — for example, severe dryness with cracks, eczema or dermatitis — it is best to consult a dermatologist before using any new product regularly. The cream is not intended to treat skin diseases and does not replace prescribed therapy.
