Hand cream recommendations please

I’m a community nurse. For some reason unbeknown to me, this past couple of weeks have been rough on my hands! They are so dry and itchy. I need a good hand cream that absorbs quickly after I’ve alcohol gelled them, that isn’t greasy and I allows me to easily get gloves on when I go to my next patient. I’ve been using Body Shop hemp on the backs of my hands but it’s too greasy to use frequently during my shift.
Any recommendations please?

Atrixo

You might be allergic to one of them.

Get a decent barrier cream, or ask work to provide you with some.

Neutrogena fishermen's hand cream. It's the bomb.

Atrixo is soothing and good and I’d also recommend the L’occitaine intensive hand balm 73%shea butter which I think would be good with gloves

I’ll check those out thank you

Hello, I’m also a nurse and I use Fulvic Acid hand cream. I think you can only get it on the Victoria Health website. My hands were very sore and rough recently but they love this, I don’t feel it’s greasy at all.

O'keeffe's absorbs really quickly and is great when my hands get dry

Burts Bees Ultimate hand cream

Definitely O'keeffe's

After a recommendation on here I recently bought some udderly smooth and it’s a game changer

Definitely O’Keefe’s. I use the one in the tube, the one in the tub has a slightly different formula and is too greasy.
