A good handcream

Hi all
My hands are shocking I really need to start wearing gloves when I wash up !
I've been using a royal jelly hand cream that my mum bought me but it doesn't do much to be honest! I want an effective hand cream that's going to help sort out the dry skin on my fingers as well. What do you all use and does it work!!

Caudalie is the best I’ve used. It’s french but available online. You only need a bit and the fragrances are very nice.

I like the L’Occitane Shea but if I need serious repairs it’s either Kiehl’s ultimate strength hand salve or La Roche Posay Lipikar Xerand. See rapid results and restores skin nicely - lab work, chapped hands from sub zero, guitar finger callouses.... you name it

La Roche Posay do quite a nice one - thick but not too greasy - and unfragranced. I like to use it a night. It's the only one they do, so should be easy to identify!

I have also got some of the L'Occitane ones (in mini size) and the fragrance is nice but sometimes a bit much.

I like either the Aveeno one, or Burt's Bees Hand Salve in the little tin. Oh and Body Shop hemp.

I work in a school and am constantly washing or sanitising my hands.

If you're near an aldi they have been doing their own hemp hand protector for 1.50 for a good sized tube, basically their version of the body shop hemp hand cream. I'm on my second tube of this & its helped my dry winter hands a great deal.

Expensive but good - Ameliorate Transforming hand cream.
