Your best hand cream please!

[anonymousbird]

Not expensive, as I can't splurge but in desperate need of effective hand cream, preferably non greasy so can apply several times a day without having to wait ages each time for hands to "dry"!

TIA

Kiehls.

Eucerin foot cream -10% urea. For night time use.
M&S Les Senteurs Handcream Almond is lovely and soooo much cheaper ( and better) than L'Occitane which are extortionate for the little size of the tube.

Body shop hemp , half price today

Another vote for Body Shop hemp

Soap and Glory hand food. Or for really cheap but amazingly effective, Cremolia from Boots.

L'occitane is well worth the money. I bought a large tube about 2 years ago and I've only just finished it. It's the only one that seems to last through hand washing. I don't find it greasy but then my hands are very very dry. I put it on to the back of my hand then dot on to cuticles and then rub into nails then over backs of hands and only then rub all over. I work at a desk and can type pretty much immediately using this approach.

FreeButton we'll agree to differ
To me L'occitane Handcream is soooo expensive and just not worth €10 approximately for a tiny tube.

Vaseline Hand and Nails in a pink/red tube or bottle, cheap as chips and works beautifully on sore, cracked skin and strengthens nails better than anything else I've ever used.

And it isn't at all greasy unlike L'Occitane.

I splashed out and spent £16 on one called Hand Chemistry after seeing it recommended in a magazine. It's literally given me new skin on my hands, they are softer than they've ever been and you only use the tiniest amount. The tube has lasted about 5 months so far and is still going strong. The Foot one is pretty good too.

The Norwegian formula is on offer in Waitrose st the moment. I have stocked up as it's very good

Another vote for L'Occitane. It isn't greasy and a little goes a long way. Another good one is Clarins.

I really like the body shop hemp one (I even quite like the odd smell)
I have also heard the palmers new Shea butter one is very good

Aveeno cream, definitely

Burts Bees

Why do all hand creams not have a flip top cap?
So much less messy than a twist on cap.
It's not rocket science.

Aldi. The huge white tube with the blue lid.

Aesop resurrection or Neals Yard bergamot and mint. Both smell delish and aren't greasy.

I like Crabtree and Evelyn rosewater. I use a lot of hand cream - I have one in my handbag, one by the side of the bed and one in work. The Crabtree and Evelyn one is my favourite.

I find Occitane too greasy, Norwegian formula doesn't rub in easily enough, I don't like the smell of the body shop hemp one, body shop almond leaves a bit of a powder on me, clarins did nothing really towards justifying the price and Burts Bees can be sticky.

Body Shop Almond Hand & Nail cream. It's really moisturising but absorbs well, so doesn't feel too greasy.

The Body Shop Hemp one is also good, but I stopped using it...the smell...

E45 Lotion. I slop that stuff on everywhere, that needs a bit of TLC. Dirt cheap and lasts for ever.

Soap and glory is quite good - you have to put it on four or five times a day but it soaks in very quickly.

I've been using one call du'it tough hands it contains urea it's pretty similar to the Norwegian formula the tube is pretty ugly though.

Aldi's own hand cream with glycerine. Comes in at under £1.
