overnight handcreams

I seem to be forever handwashing and despite good intentions I'm not good at regularly moisturising with handcream after. My hands are now showing the signs of ageing as well so I'm wondering - can anyone recommend a handcream I can put on at night that will miraculously restore my hands by morning? Smile

I found putting a tube of hand cream by the soap worked for me in remembering to moisturise. It was there as a reminder and I didn't have to go hunting for some every time.

In terms of repairing type hand cream, I like Nivea's Repair Care. It's a bit like the Neutrogena stuff, but I like the smell better. You don't need a lot, and it soaks in nicely.

Atrixo intensive is my saviour. Put it on my night and morning and it keeps my (previously dry) hands nice and moisturised.

Flextol Heelbalm 25% Urea is fantastic stuff for hands overnight

I'm using Beauty Pie retinol handcream and Neom nourish, breathe & sleep balm. You need to use sunblock the next day after using the retinol.

O'Keeffe's working hands hand cream is very good. Can get it in Boots

I have Boots Protect and Perfect Intense Overnight Revitalising Hand Treatment. Works miraculously when I remember to put it on!

I use the neutrogena concentrated at night. I also keep a tube near the front door to put on before I put my gloves on and go out. I also hate moisturising through the day because of that greasy feeling, but if I’ve got gloves on top it doesn’t bother me and is all soaked in before I get where I’m going. Also slather hands in moisturiser before putting on washing up gloves and doing the dishes. The heat makes it all penetrate more and hands a beautifully soft afterwards
