When and how often should I apply this cream for very dry hands? — Hand cream intensively nourishing 50ml

There is no fixed schedule, because how often you need the cream depends on how much your hands are exposed to water, soap, cold and dry air. People who wash their hands frequently may feel tightness after almost every wash and can reapply each time. Others only need it once or twice a day, usually in the morning before going out and in the evening before bed.

For the most noticeable nourishing effect, make the cream part of an evening regimen. In the evening your hands are usually done with washing and cleaning for the day, so the formula has time to work into the skin overnight. Apply a small amount after your last hand wash, massage it into the backs of your hands, palms, fingers and especially the cuticles and nail-area skin, which tend to dry out and become rough. Massaging for a few seconds helps the cream-butter texture absorb and distributes the product evenly without leaving a heavy residue.

During the day, reapply whenever your hands feel tight, rough or dry. If you are outdoors in wind and cold, applying a layer before going outside is a practical way to start with more nourishment on the skin, although the cream is not claimed to act as a protective barrier in a medical sense. In very dry indoor environments, you may also find yourself using it after lunch or after handling paper, which can dry the skin further.

A small amount usually covers both hands, but do not hesitate to use a little extra on particularly rough areas such as knuckles or the heel of the palm. This product is for external use only; avoid the eye area, and stop use if irritation or an allergic reaction appears.
